ARIZONA LEADS CRYPTO RESERVE LEGISLATION RACE AS SB 1373 PASSES HOUSE COMMITTEE

▪️The Arizona Strategic Digital Assets Reserve Bill passed the House committee on Thursday.

▪️The bill, which calls for the creation of a strategic reserve, now awaits a final reading and full floor vote before reaching the governor’s desk for approval.

Arizona's Strategic Digital Assets Reserve Bill, or "SB 1373," passed the House committee on Thursday. It now awaits a third reading and a full floor vote before reaching the governor's desk for final approval.

The SB 1373 bill proposes the creation of a digital assets strategic reserve fund, which would consist of funds appropriated by the legislature and crypto assets seized by authorities.

The bill notes that the state treasurer would be allowed to deposit seized crypto into the fund via a qualified custody solution or a state-registered exchange-traded product, and that the treasurer may loan digital assets from the fund for additional returns.

"The state treasurer may not invest more than ten percent of the total amount of monies deposited in the fund in any given fiscal year," the bill says.

According to SB 1373, the term "digital assets" include virtual currency, virtual coin, and cryptocurrencies, which encompass bitcoin, stablecoins, non-fungible tokens, and other blockchain-based assets that carry economic or access rights.

A separate bill — the Arizona Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Act (SB 1025) — also passed the House on April 1. If enacted, SB 1025 would allow state funds to invest up to 10% in "virtual currency holdings."

However, Arizona's crypto reserve bills may face a significant roadblock in the legislative progress as Governor Katie Hobbs vowed to veto all bills until the legislature passes a disability funding measure.

Several other U.S. states are currently advancing crypto-related legislation. According to data from bitcoin legislation researcher Bitcoin Laws, Arizona has made the furthest progress in passing the digital asset reserve legislation, followed by Texas and New Hampshire.

RUSSIA MULLS LOCAL STABLECOIN ISSUANCE TO CIRCUMVENT SANCTIONS

A Deputy Director at the Russian Finance Ministry, Osman Kabaloev, has floated the idea of Russia launching a stablecoin to help with import and export payments. Over the last three years, Russia has tried numerous routes to circumvent sanctions given its access to Swift for cross border payments is blocked.

A current popular route is the use of stablecoins, and Tether in particular. However, in early March, Tether froze $28.5 million in funds belonging to sanctioned Russian crypto exchange Garantex, causing it to suspend services.

“That blocking that recently happened… makes us think that we need to look at creating internal instruments like USDT, possibly tied to other currencies, like they do in the Emirates – a stablecoin for the dirham – and in many other countries,” Kabaloev said at a conference of the Association of Russian Banks, according to Reuters. He was referring to the recent launch of the AE Coin, a dirham stablecoin authorized by the Central Bank of the UAE. Notably, the dirham is pegged to the dollar.

This isn’t the first report about Russian stablecoins. Last August there were reports of plans to issue a stablecoin in the Chinese yuan as well as a BRICS basket. It’s unclear whether China’s government would support a yuan stablecoin or would prefer the use of its CBDC.

The yuan is relevant because a significant proportion of Russia’s cross border payments have now shifted to the Chinese currency.

Tokenization & crypto for cross border payments

Russia already has two experimental programs that can be used for cross border payments. It has digital financial asset (DFA) issuance, its regulated tokenization regime that was launched before the Ukraine invasion. This supports assets such as tokenized gold or oil, and Iran said it was working with Russia on using tokenized assets for payments.

DFAs were originally intended for domestic investments, but a year ago Russia passed a law allowing DFAs to be used for cross border payments. Around the same time, local ratings agency ACRA highlighted frictions for foreign DFA holders because they’d have to onboard with Russian banks.

Russia’s central bank is not a big fan of cryptocurrencies, and initially resisted their use for cross border payments. However, late last year a new experimental program was launched to support the use of cryptocurrencies for imports and exports.

Mr Kabav also mentioned proposals the Central Bank subloemitted for crypto trading.

On the payments front he said, “Pilot transactions were conducted at the end of December, and now the mechanism is gaining momentum. Therefore, we hope that we will only strengthen and expand this area.”

At the same time Russia is working on a digital ruble central bank digital currency (CBDC), and there’s been much talk of a BRICS Bridge. That’s a planned cross border CBDC payment system for local currency payments amongst the ten BRICS member states.

RUSSIAN SENATOR ANTICIPATES CREATION OF BRICS+, DOZENS OF NATIONS POTENTIALLY INVOLVED

Deputy Speaker of the Federation Council Konstantin Kosachev revealed that several countries are set to join the BRICS+ initiative, aiming to include the maximum number of participants. The Russian senator emphasized that this geopolitical group would facilitate direct interaction with dozens of countries outside the bloc.

Deputy Speaker of the Federation Council Konstantin Kosachev revealed that several countries are set to join the BRICS+ initiative, aiming to include the maximum number of participants. The Russian senator emphasized that this geopolitical group would facilitate direct interaction with dozens of countries outside the bloc.

Russian Senator Reveals Future Creation of BRICS+ Geopolitical Group

The BRICS alternative bloc, composed of Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates, is now seeking to expand its reach and influence to other countries through BRICS+.

Konstantin Kosachev, a Russian Senator of the Federation Council, said the bloc will deploy this new initiative to put dozens of allied countries in direct contact with the organization.

Kosachev stated:

This will not be a closed association for BRICS countries and partners, but rather a broader platform aimed at including the maximum number of participants.

The Russian Senator noted that several nations, including China, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Ethiopia, South Africa, and Brazil, the current president of BRICS, had expressed their support for the BRICS+ initiative. “Several other countries are still considering their positions, but in this case, as within the entire association, we do not impose our will or attempt to enforce a single discipline,” he clarified.

The idea would be discussed during the next Parliamentary Forum in June, where representatives of the member states and allied nations will be present. “We hope to reach some decisions to formalize this initiative on the platform of the Inter-Parliamentary Union during the autumn assembly,” Kosachev concluded.

The news hints at a new level of cooperation between the BRICS bloc and its allies centered in the BRICS+ initiative, which could be used to coordinate binding economic and governance policies seeking to strengthen the group’s position in the face of the current financial turmoil and market uncertainty.

Per Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s statements, these measures could include adopting a common payment system, which will also be available for countries outside the group.

Robert Kiyosaki’s Top 4 Tips To Save Retirees From Financial Disaster

Robert Kiyosaki’s Top 4 Tips To Save Retirees From Financial Disaster

Jennifer Taylor  Thu, April 17, 2025   GOBankingRates

We all know that retirement involves a major financial shift in a person’s life. If you’re planning to leave the workforce in the near future, Robert Kiyosaki — founder of the famous “Rich Dad” franchise — has plenty of advice that might differ from the traditional guidance you’ve been given.

Going into retirement fully informed by money experts like him can help you avoid financial disaster. Here are four of Kiyosaki’s top tips to help you enjoy a financially sound retirement.

Don’t Expect Your 401(k) To Last

Generally speaking, if you worked hard to put money aside in your 401(k) throughout your career, you may assume it will last through retirement. However, Kiyosaki is adamant that this isn’t the case.

In a September 2024 post on X, he shared a story about having dinner with a baby boomer friend who said many of his peers are coming out of retirement because inflation has depleted much of their 401(k).

“Printing fake money causes assets such as gold, silver, and Bitcoin to rise in price,” he posted. “Printing fake money also causes food, fuel and fun to go up in price too.”

He said printing money might make the Feds richer, but it causes the poor and middle class to lose money.

“That’s why boomers are coming out of retirement,” he posted. “Their nest is filled with fake assets and fake money.”

Kiyosaki has long been a vocal critic of 401(k) plans.

On his “Rich Dad” website, he has covered the shift from defined benefit plans to defined contribution plans, which took place around the 1974 Employee Retirement Income Security Act. He noted that defined benefit plans provided employees with a set amount of income, but in the post-ERISA shift, the responsibility for retirement income has fallen on employees.

This, he noted, has left people with no financial education in charge of investing their retirement funds. While they can work with a financial planner, he indicated this might not necessarily be in their best interest.

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

OKX GOES LIVE IN THE US AFTER SETTING UP NEW HEADQUARTERS IN SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA

The world’s sixth-largest crypto exchange by daily trading volume is now accessible to the American market.

In a statement, OKX says that it is accelerating its expansion in the US with the official launch of its centralized exchange and web3 wallet in the country.

The move enables existing OKcoin customers to migrate to the OKX platform, though new user registration won’t be available until later this year.

The Seychelles-based firm says the measured rollout will help ensure a secure onboarding process for customers.

OKX has also set up its headquarters in San Jose, California, and appointed former Barclays Investment Bank director Roshan Robert as the new US CEO as part of its US strategy.

Says Robert,

“This expansion in the United States is not only the expansion of the business map, but also a solemn commitment to ‘responsible growth’. In the face of the evolving regulatory environment, we are working closely with regulators and policymakers to ensure sound operation on a transparent and compliant basis.”

The exchange says it positions itself at the heart of Silicon Valley’s innovation system by setting up the new California headquarters.

“This strategic move strengthens OKX’s regional operations, enabling it to recruit top-tier talent, foster cutting-edge product development, and expand its presence in the world’s largest financial market.”

BRICS EXPANSION: 44 COUNTRIES READY TO JOIN ALLIANCE IN 2025

BRICS expansion could be a major topic of discussion as the total number of countries expressing interest in joining the alliance is growing in 2025. The 17th summit is scheduled to be held on July 7 and 8 in Brazil’s Rio De Janeiro. The 10-member bloc will decide the future of the alliance, and all decisions will be based on consensus.

A BRICS expansion in 2025 could also accelerate de-dollarization as more countries look to end reliance on the US dollar. Apart from the sanctions, Trump’s recent tariffs are also making emerging economies distrust the White House policies.

44 Countries Show Interest to Join BRICS as Expansion Talks Grow in 2025

Vietnam is the 44th country that has expressed interest in joining the alliance this month. China, Russia, and Iran are looking at BRICS expansion in 2025 while the other members are stepping back.

Russia and Iran are reeling under US sanctions making their economies remain under pressure and lose business deals. 

Out of the 44 countries, 23 nations have formally submitted their applications while 21 have informally expressed interest to join.

On the other hand, China wants to use the bloc as a stepping stone to dismantle the US dollar’s dominance.

Therefore, BRICS expansion in 2025 will only help China, Russia, and Iran as more countries will join the de-dollarization bandwagon. The decision to add more countries will be decided in the upcoming summit in Rio De Janeiro.

“Vietnam consistently pursues its foreign policy of independence, self-reliance and multilateralization and diversification of international relations, and being a trusted friend and responsible member of the international community,” said Vietnam’s Foreign Ministry’s spokesperson about the country’s interest in being a part of the BRICS expansion in 2025.

Good afternoon Dinar Recaps,

TRUMP SLAMS POWELL OVER RATE CUTS: ‘TOO LATE AND WRONG!’ CALLS FOR FED CHAIR’S REMOVAL

U.S. President Donald Trump slammed Fed Chair Jerome Powell on Thursday, saying he’s “always too late and wrong” for not cutting interest rates. Trump believes the Fed should have acted way sooner to support the economy.

He notes that the European Central Bank might have already cut rates multiple times while Powell has been slow to act. Trump also mentioned in his post that oil prices and groceries, including eggs, have gone down and the US is benefitting from tariffs.

Trump Calls For Powell’s Termination

He notes that Powell should have acted sooner but he still needs to reduce the rates now. He also expressed frustration over Powell’s leadership, calling for his removal. “Powell’s termination cannot come fast enough!” he said.

In his Wednesday speech, Powell stated that the Fed would wait for more economic data before adjusting the interest rates. He also warned that the tariff policies could further push jobs off the track. Besides, he also added that the recent market volatility is a natural reaction to the administration’s shifting trade policies, and that is not something that the Fed requires to intervene.

“For the time being, we are well positioned to wait for greater clarity before considering any adjustments to our policy stance,” Powell said in his speech to the Economic Club of Chicago.

Powell’s Remarks Add to The Tensions

Powell said that the US tariffs could raise inflation and the public would end up paying for it. Trump also called Powell’s report ‘a complete mess’ and warned that Trump’s extensive tariffs on trade partners could force the Fed to make a difficult choice between tackling inflation and rising unemployment. 

Notably, these remarks further escalates the tensions between the White House and the Fed amidst a politically charged economic period.

Trump’s sweeping and unpredictable tariff policies have left the investors and trade partners unsettled and worrying over its potential impact on international trade. While Trump has urged Powell to cut rates, the Central Bank has held the interest rates steady at 4.25 to 4.5% since the start of the year.

CHINA IMPORTS RECORD AMOUNTS OF CANADIAN OIL, CUTS US PURCHASES

China has begun importing record amounts of Canadian crude oil while slashing purchases of US oil by roughly 90% amid a growing trade war. A pipeline expansion in Western Canada has presented China and other East Asian oil importers with expanded access to the vast crude reserves in Alberta’s oilsands region. The deal resumes China’s oil imports while allowing the country to avoid making a new oil deal with the USA.

According to data from Vortexa Ltd., Chinese crude imports from the port at the pipeline terminus near Vancouver surged to 7.3 million barrels in March. On the flip side, Chinese imports of US oil have collapsed to 3 million barrels a month from a peak of 29 million in June. 

“Given the trade war, it’s unlikely for China to import more US oil,” Wenran Jiang, president of the Canada-China Energy & Environment Forum, told Bloomberg. “They are not going to bank on Russian alone or Middle Eastern alone. Anything from Canada will be welcome news.”

Just yesterday, oil futures turned higher after Chinese officials signaled that they might be willing to engage with the U.S. However, those talks appeared to have reversed, as now the BRICS founder is working with Canada, another victim of US tariffs. China likely isn’t going for oil from the Middle East due to oil from Alberta being inexpensive compared to the Middle East.

While the oil price surge from China-US trade news gave a bit of relief, there are still significant challenges that remain in the market. The International Energy Agency just recently slashed its global oil consumption forecast, basically saying that supply additions will probably exceed demand. And those surprisingly large output increases that OPEC and its allies announced further complicate this whole situation. The trade war is streaming into the oil industry, causing countries like China to look for new options.

Preparing For The Escalation That’s Likely To Come

Preparing For The Escalation That’s Likely To Come

Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black)   April 17, 2025

There’s rumors floating around alleging that top secret plans from the Chinese Communist Party have been leaked, indicating that China’s President Xi Jinping views this conflict with the US as the opening to a complete and total war.

Personally I’m skeptical if these leaked documents exist, and if they are legitimate. I don't think anyone has any way to know.

But I will reiterate my view that, while I don’t believe war is imminent or certain, it’s clear that the US and China are closer to conflict now than they have been since at least the 1960s when China participated in the Vietnam War.

It’s not hard to understand why. The two largest economic powers in the world are deliberately trying to hurt one another. And history is full of examples of economic wars which escalate into much larger conflict.

We can certainly hope that cooler heads prevail. But as we used to say in the military, hope is not a course of action... and it’s imperative to acknowledge that this major risk exists.

How might things escalate?

First on the list is the very real and immediate risk of a cyberattack from China.

In fact that’s already happening.

Remember SolarWinds— the massive cyberattack in 2020 where state-sponsored foreign hackers compromised a widely used IT management platform to infiltrate US government agencies and major corporations?

That single attack gave the CCP access to countless US networks.

More recently, a top Chinese official admitted Beijing’s responsibility for the Volt Typhoon cyberattacks targeting US infrastructure, in a closed-door December 2024 meeting.

In 2015, Chinese hackers breached the US Office of Personnel Management and stole sensitive data on over 22 million federal employees, including security clearance files and fingerprints. They were inside the systems for months before they were detected.

And just this week, major US banks including JPMorgan raised the alarm after discovering the email system of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC)— a US banking regulator— had been hacked, potentially to steal credentials that gain further access to systems and information.

It doesn’t really matter which of these can be directly linked to the CCP. Russian hackers, North Korean infiltrators, Chinese non-state entities— they are all in it together.

And the fact that China seems to leave everything intact after their attacks, without damaging or disrupting systems, is actually the scariest part.

We’re talking sleeper viruses. Malware that’s already inside the system.

And the target? Some of the most critical infrastructure in the country. The power grid. Water systems. Financial institutions. These aren’t exactly hardened digital fortresses. In fact, many of these systems are laughably insecure.

The US energy sector in particular still operates on shockingly low-tech infrastructure with outdated code. Same story with large parts of our financial system.

I’ve written before about how SWIFT—the nerve center of global financial transfers—was recently running outdated Windows (version 7!!) operating systems.

Bottom line, Chinese hackers and malware are embedded in vulnerable US systems. They have access. They have credentials. Let’s not be naive about this.

Imagine waking up one morning and your bank app doesn’t load. Your credit card doesn’t work. You can’t send a wire, can’t make payroll, can’t even pay your rent. Maybe you don’t even have electricity, or clean running water.

A Plan B for this scenario has never been more important.

The first step is easy— buy a secure home safe, and keep enough cash on hand to pay for a month or two of necessities.

Add some precious metals which allow you to maintain physical custody of some savings, with no third party in between you and your money. Have gold and silver coins and bars in a variety of weights so you could spend them in an emergency.

Holding some cryptocurrency isn’t a bad idea either— offline, on a hardware wallet that can also go in the safe. Again, this takes some of your savings out of the vulnerable financial system, and allows you to maintain physical custody of your funds.

Here’s another key point aside from money: China manufactures over 40% of the world's active pharmaceutical ingredients— the chemical compounds which make up drugs— and up to 95% of particular compounds, such as crucial ingredients in the antibiotic penicillin.

So even if the final product isn't labeled "Made in China," the underlying ingredients may still originate from Chinese manufacturers.

That’s a significant role in the global pharma supply chain that could cause massive disruptions if they chose to weaponize it. 

So if you take regular medication, make sure to keep extra on hand.

Having a power generator is another good backup plan, whether it runs on propane or gasoline, or solar panels and batteries. The same goes for extra water storage.

Again, I’m not saying that there’s some imminent danger. But we shouldn’t ignore the risk. And the point is that there’s no downside to taking sensible precautions.

That’s the basic premise of a Plan B: identify the biggest threats against your safety and prosperity, and take reasonable steps now that give you confidence in the face of uncertainty.

These are all fairly easy steps to take that give us options to respond to whatever happens, since none of us know exactly how any of this will play out.

Soon, we’ll discuss additional Plan B strategies that give you even more dexterity in the event of prolonged system disruptions, and equally disruptive potential emergency responses from the US government.

To your freedom,  James Hickman  Co-Founder, Schiff Sovereign LLC

 Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

RIPPLE VS SEC LAWSUIT UPDATE: 60-DAY COURT PAUSE EXPLAINED

▪️The Ripple-SEC case is paused for 60 days, sparking speculation of behind-the-scenes developments.

▪️A crypto lawyer suggests Ripple and the SEC might be negotiating a settlement and seeking clarity on private token sales.

▪️The case's future hinges on potential agreements, Judge Torres' rulings, and could extend into late 2026 if no deal is reached.

The legal battle between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is taking yet another twist. While the U.S. Court of Appeals has agreed to pause the case for 60 days, this has sparked fresh speculation and raised new questions: Is something happening behind the scenes? Could a major shift be coming in one of crypto’s most closely watched legal fights?

Prominent crypto lawyer James Farrell has shared some insights that might offer clues – and they’re worth paying attention to.

Why the Pause?

According to Farrell, this pause may be a sign of major developments ahead. Both Ripple and the SEC asked for the pause together, which suggests they might be working on something behind closed doors.

Farrell says there are two possibilities in play: a potential settlement and an “indicative ruling” from Judge Analisa Torres. Ripple is hoping the judge will allow it to sell private tokens under certain conditions—something it’s currently not allowed to do because of past violations.

If Ripple isn’t allowed to sell tokens privately, it may not be able to go public any time soon. While other crypto companies might move ahead with IPOs, Ripple could be stuck waiting for years before launching its own.

Two Possible Paths Forward

Farrell explains that Ripple and the SEC might be considering two paths:

▪️Settlement Without Rule Change
Ripple could offer a settlement to the SEC. If the SEC accepts the deal but denies Ripple’s request to change the rules, the case would end. However, Ripple would still need Judge Torres to approve the rule change. That process could take another 3 to 6 months – and there’s no guarantee the judge would say yes.

▪️Full Agreement With Rule Change
In this option, the SEC agrees to both the settlement and Ripple’s request. The case would return to Judge Torres, who would then decide how to move forward. But even in this case, it could still take months, depending on how quickly the court acts.

How Soon Could This End?

If Ripple and the SEC reach a full agreement, the appeal could be dismissed as early as next month. But if Ripple has to file separately for rule changes, things could drag on much longer.

If no deal is made at all, the case could go back to the appeals court – possibly stretching the legal battle into late 2026 or even 2027.

The SEC is expected to make its next official move by June 15. Until then, both the crypto world and the legal community will be watching closely to see what happens next.

Ripple’s path forward might be uncertain, but the next few months could shape the future of crypto regulation in a big way.

CARDANO ENTERS BRAZIL THROUGH MAJOR UNIVERSITY COLLABORATION

The Cardano Foundation has formally announced a new partnership with the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio), a top-ranked Brazilian university renowned for its contributions to research and development.

The collaboration, revealed on April 15, will concentrate on the advancement and practical application of blockchain technology, specifically within the energy sector in Brazil.

Cardano Partners with Top Brazilian University

PUC-Rio is recognized as one of the top five private universities in the world for excellence in research and development, and it has a broad history of partnerships within the energy industry.

 The establishment of this collaboration follows previous cooperative efforts between PUC-Rio and the Brazilian state-owned enterprise Petrobras, as well as the Cardano Foundation’s own involvement with Petrobras on blockchain-driven initiatives.

Through this new endeavor, PUC-Rio’s Ledger Labs—a research group concentrating on the utilization of DLT in finance and business—will receive support from the Cardano Foundation to explore various aspects of blockchain implementation. 

According to official statements, the initial areas of focus will include blockchain economics, decentralized finance (DeFi), governance of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), and digital assets.

“At the core of blockchain advancement are education and innovation. Through our collaboration with esteemed academic institutions like PUC-Rio, the Cardano Foundation ensures that the next generation of developers, industry leaders, and regulators can harness this transformative technology to its fullest potential—creating solutions that address real-world challenges and drive positive global impact,” Cardano Foundation CEO Frederik Gregaard commented.

The immediate emphasis of this alliance will be directed toward developing blockchain-based solutions that enhance production, consumption, and overall value chains in renewable energy fuels. Joint research and pilot projects in cooperation with Petrobras are expected to delve into specific methods of applying Cardano’s blockchain infrastructure to processes such as tracking and verifying energy outputs, optimizing workflows, and ensuring robust data integrity.

Ledger Labs at PUC-Rio will serve as the operational base for these studies. Leonardo Lima, Vice-Dean of the university and head of Ledger Labs, noted that the scope of the partnership will also encompass philanthropic endeavors geared toward social impact.

“Our partnership with the Cardano Foundation marks the beginning of the development of a series of use cases, not only in the energy industry but also in the field of philanthropy, with a focus on social impact projects,” he said.

Beyond the technological and scientific research, the partnership aspires to enrich PUC-Rio’s blockchain ecosystem by hosting joint events, supporting student-led social projects, and inviting other organizations to collaborate on emerging blockchain strategies. 

A significant part of this development will occur through A.L.B.A (Ada Labs for Blockchain Applications), an arm of Ledger Labs that is expected to integrate standards previously introduced at the Universidad Tecnológica Nacional (UTN) in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The Foundation’s current expansion in Brazil reflects its growing footprint in the region. “Our partnership with PUC-Rio marks the Cardano Foundation’s second collaboration with a Brazilian entity this year. Last month, we announced our partnership with SERPRO, the world’s largest public IT company, and we have been collaborating with Petrobras, Brazil’s state-owned energy company, since 2023,” said Rafael Fraga, LATAM Business Development Lead for the Cardano Foundation.

10 Most Awesome Things You Can Do for Your Finances

I’m a Financial Advisor: 10 Most Awesome Things You Can Do for Your Finances

Cara Danielle Brown  Wed, April 16, 2025  GOBankingRates

Looking to make the most of your finances, starting today? Some may think that taking financial risks or chasing trends is the key to maximizing potential.

But, according to Michael Fiammetta, financial advisor at 4 Generations Wealth Management, the best thing one can do this year is the same thing he or she can and should be doing every year: master the basics.

Maximize Retirement Contributions

Contributing as much as you can as early as you can to your 401(k) or IRA — within annual limits — “is one of the smartest moves you can make for your future self,” Fiammetta said.

This is because nothing helps grow your retirement savings over time like compound interest. Can’t afford to contribute the maximum amount? That’s okay. Fiammetta argued that boosting contributions by a mere 1% in 2025 will impact your financial future.

Diversify Your Portfolio

If your investments are concentrated in one sector or asset class, consider diversifying stat.

“A diversified portfolio–spanning stocks, bonds, real estate, and more — reduces risk and positions you for long-term success,” said Fiammetta. This way, if one or two investments don’t perform well, others can balance out the loss.

Create an Estate Plan

No one likes to think about it. But what would happen to your money if you meet your untimely demise? In the absence of an estate plan, the state would determine who gets your assets based on unique intestacy laws that establish priority order beginning with closest living relatives.

But what if you wish to dictate particular amounts to specific individuals, or you prefer to pass assets to extended family and charitable organizations? Make sure a trust or will is put in place. Having a say in how your money is divided up ensures your preferences are honored and your legacy is carried on. It could also help loved ones avoid probate.

Iraq Economic News and Points to Ponder Wednesday Afternoon 4-16-25

An Economic Expert Told NINA: US Tariffs Will Contribute To Raising Oil Prices

Wednesday, April 16, 2025 14:55 | Economic Number of reads: 142  Baghdad / NINA / Economic expert Safwan Qusay confirmed on Wednesday that imposing US tariffs on some countries will contribute to raising oil prices and thus reflect on the oil-producing countries of the Middle East.

He said in a statement to / NINA /: "Imposing economic tariffs by Washington will contribute to the withdrawal of many American investments in the world, as well as the possibility of increasing the production volume of companies within the US to meet demand within the Washington environment, stressing that raising such tariffs on Chinese goods will contribute to reducing oil consumption in China until China succeeds in finding other markets, and this issue needs some time and will be reflected in oil prices and thus reflect on the oil-producing countries of the Middle East."

He stressed, "Iraq needs to intensify trade conditions with the United States of America to ensure the presence of American goods in the Iraqi market and to support the issue of reducing these tariffs."

He continued, "Iraq can contain this crisis and has succeeded in establishing good relations with the United States of America, and there are no indications of oil prices falling below their current levels of $65, which is a price sufficient to cover operating expenses for this period." /End https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?key=1198180

Slight Increase In Basra Crude Oil Prices

Wednesday, April 16, 2025 10:26 | Economic Number of reads: 196  Baghdad / NINA / Basra Heavy and Medium crude prices rose slightly despite the stability of global oil prices.

 Basra Heavy crude prices rose 10 cents to reach $62.43, and Medium crude prices rose 10 cents to reach $65.58.   Oil prices stabilized in global markets on Wednesday, as Brent crude recorded $64.49 today, and US crude recorded $61.17.  https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?key=1198104

Economist: Financial Debts Have Caused A Liquidity Crisis In Government Banks And The Pension Fund.
Time: 2025/04/16 12:35:41 Read: 2,010 Times  {Economic: Al Furat News} Economic expert Salah Nouri confirmed on Wednesday the existence of a liquidity crisis at a number of government banks, including Rafidain and Rashd banks, in addition to the Trade Bank of Iraq and the Iraqi Employees' Retirement Fund. He attributed the reason to the accumulation of internal debts at the Ministry of Finance as a result of its reliance on domestic borrowing to cover the budget deficit over the past years.

Nouri told Al Furat News Agency, "There is a liquidity crisis plaguing government banks and the pension fund, as a result of the Ministry of Finance's mounting internal debts to cover the budget deficit for several consecutive years."

He added that "this crisis has directly impacted these institutions' ability to meet their obligations," while noting that he "does not have precise figures that can confirm or deny the statements made by several MPs on this matter, due to the Ministry of Finance's directive not to provide government banks with any financial information."

In recent years, the Iraqi Ministry of Finance has relied on a policy of domestic borrowing to cover recurring deficits in the public budget, by borrowing from government banks and the employees' pension fund.

This approach, although a temporary measure to address operating expenses, has led to the accumulation of massive debts for the Ministry of Finance, directly impacting the liquidity of lending financial institutions.  LINK

Al-Sudani: Customs Revenues Increase And Inflation Declines In Iraq.

Money and Business  Economy News – Baghdad  Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani stated on Wednesday that his government has succeeded in maximizing non-oil resources by increasing customs revenues and decreasing inflation in the country.

Al-Sudani said during the forum that today we are entering the second quarter of the twenty-first century and our country is brimming with unique success stories in every corner of it, and in every Iraqi city there is a tireless service and construction workshop, noting that infrastructure has grown in all Iraqi cities.

He added that the inherited stalled projects have decreased to less than 850, after previously numbering in the thousands. He explained, "We have embarked on the highest production plan to build power plants and for the first time, we have entered solar, clean, and renewable energy projects, and the rate of gas flaring cessation has exceeded 70 percent."

He continued, "It is unacceptable for political competition to devolve into the use of defamatory language and the concealment of the truth about government performance. Iraq needs bold and comprehensive reforms." He explained that the true value of any reform lies in reaching the poor and marginalized groups and saving them from the clutches of poverty.

Al-Sudani revealed that customs revenues increased by 128 percent and the annual inflation rate declined, noting that Iraq is proceeding with confidence in agriculture, ensuring food security, and achieving self-sufficiency.

Al-Sudani also stressed that Iraq has maintained its firm and principled positions, especially its position on the Palestinian issue, and that Iraq is prepared to be a reliable partner and an effective contributor to regional stability.

Al-Sudani announced his intention to run in the elections scheduled for November of this year, stressing that the alliances will be announced in the coming days. He added that the elections represent an opportunity to support a reform project in Iraq.

He also touched on the relationship between Baghdad and Erbil, saying that it had moved to a technical and legal dialogue for the first time, and that the oil and gas law had become an urgent necessity. He also stated that the Popular Mobilization Forces were an essential part of the security system.

Meanwhile, the Prime Minister announced that Syrian President Ahmed al-Shara will attend the Arab Summit scheduled to be held in the capital, Baghdad, next month. Al-Sudani stated, "Al-Shara is welcome to attend the Arab Summit in Baghdad, and an official invitation has been extended to him in this regard."   https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=54494

Prime Minister: Iraq Needs Bold Reforms To Ensure Regional Stability

Buratha News Agency1052025-04-16   Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani stressed on Wednesday (April 16, 2025) that Iraq needs bold and comprehensive reforms, emphasizing the need for the outcomes of reform to be directed towards the poor and marginalized groups.

In his speech during the ninth Sulaymaniyah Forum, held at the American University of Sulaymaniyah, al-Sudani stated that “Iraq is ready to be a reliable partner and an effective contributor to strengthening regional stability,” noting that “the true value of any reform lies in reaching marginalized groups and saving them from poverty.”

He added that "the government has embarked on implementing the highest production plan to build new power plants, in addition to entering into solar and renewable energy projects for the first time," warning against the use of political rhetoric to defame and distort facts related to government performance.

The forum was widely attended by local and international political, economic, and academic figures, including former President Barham Salih, who emphasized in his opening remarks that "the current situation regarding negotiations between the United States and Iran presents the region with a historic opportunity to achieve stability and a dignified life for its people."

He explained that our region has long suffered from wars and violence, and that the time has come to move to a new reality through dialogue and understanding to build a better future.

The Sulaymaniyah Forum, held this year in its ninth edition at the American University of Iraq, Sulaymaniyah, is one of the most prominent intellectual and political events, bringing together decision-makers and researchers from inside and outside Iraq to discuss pivotal issues related to politics, economics, and regional and international security.  https://burathanews.com/arabic/news/458900

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economic Updates Wednesday Evening 4-16-25

Good evening Dinar Recaps,

SEC VS RIPPLE UPDATE: MOTION TO TEMPORARILY SUSPEND APPEAL GRANTED; WHAT NEXT FOR XRP PRICE?

▪️Closing the four-year legal battle opens a new chapter for XRP mainstream adoption, catalyzed by Ripple Labs’ payment products.

▪️XRP price must hold above the support level of about $2 to invalidate further market correction.

The Donald Trump administration has gradually fulfilled its promises made during the campaign period to the crypto ecosystem. The successful replacement of Gary Gensler with crypto-friendly SEC chair Paul Atkins has helped expedite the closure of several web3-related cases, including against Ripple and Binance exchange.

SEC vs Ripple Case Update

Earlier on Wednesday during the mid-North American trading session, James K Filan, a prominent defense lawyer, released court documents dated April 16 regarding the SEC vs Ripple appeal.

According to the court documents, Circuit Judge José A. Cabrenas granted a joint motion, filed by the U.S. SEC and Ripple to temporarily suspend their appeals amid the case closure.

“The parties jointly move to hold this appeal in abeyance, with the U.S. SEC directed to file a status report within 60 days of this order,” the court order noted.

Meanwhile, Ripple Labs agreed to pay a $50 million fine to settle the longstanding case.

XRP Price Analysis

After closing the first quarter in bearish sentiment, XRP has attempted to regain a bullish outlook in the past few weeks. The large-cap altcoin, with a fully diluted valuation of about $206 billion and a 24-hour average volume of about $3.45 billion, has been forming a potential reversal pattern in the daily timeframe.

The XRP price, against the U.S. dollar, has formed a possible inverse head and shoulders pattern, coupled with a bullish divergence of the daily Relative Strength Index (RSI). As a result, if the XRP price holds above the support level of around $2 and remains above the YTD falling logarithmic trend, a target of between $2.8 and $3 will be achievable.

PANAMA CITY TO ACCEPT CRYPTO FOR PUBLIC SERVICES

Panama City Mayor has said the Panama District municipality will become the first in the nation to accept cryptocurrency payments for services, following unanimous approval by the City Council.

Unanimous Approval

The Panama City Mayor Mayer Mizrachi announced on April 15 that the Panama District municipality will become the first in the nation to accept cryptocurrency as a form of payment for services. The decision follows a unanimous approval by the City Council.

According to Mizrachi, the new payment system will operate through an authorized bank that will handle the conversion of cryptocurrency payments into U.S. dollars for the Mayor’s Office. 

This mechanism aims to streamline the process and mitigate potential volatility associated with digital assets for the municipality’s finances.

“My dear City Council has unanimously approved an initiative initiated by the Mayor’s Office, which will allow all citizens to pay their obligations and taxes in crypto,” Mizrachi explained, highlighting the significance of this decision.

The mayor further stated that Panama, often considered Central America’s financial hub, was lagging behind in adopting this modern payment method. 

He clarified the legal framework, stating, “Legally, it’s simple: the Mayor’s Office receives dollars, but there’s an intermediary who receives the crypto, transforms it into dollars, and takes it to the Mayor’s Office.”

Mizrachi indicated that a formal announcement with further details will be made once the agreement with the partnering bank is finalized. He emphasized the broader implications of this decision, stating, “This allows for the free movement of cryptocurrencies throughout the economy and throughout government.”

Besides positioning itself as Latin America’s crypto hub, Panama introduced a draft bill aiming to regulate cryptocurrencies and establish a legal framework for blockchain-based services. The bill outlines licensing requirements for Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) to register with Panama’s Financial Analysis Unit (UAF) and adhere to know your customer and anti-money laundering regulations.

If passed, this legislation could provide greater legal clarity and consumer protection while fostering innovation in Panama’s digital economy.

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Tuesday Night 4-15-25

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Tuesday Night 4-15-25

Transcribed By WiserNow Emailed To Recaps

Welcome everybody to the big call tonight. It is Tuesday, April 15th  and you're listening to the big call, thank you for joining us tonight. We're looking forward to having a great call again tonight, and I'm glad everybody, no matter where located all over the globe. So thanks for listening tonight So let's get into the Intel and the time remaining, which I don't know how long I've got, but I'll tell you this much we've been so close to having this go, and the information that we were getting, was saying from some sources, and get notified yesterday and start today.

And I told you guys kind of why we got pushed last let's see. What was that last Thursday, why we got pushed a little bit. Now I do have a reason why we didn't go today, and that is because we have three states in the United States, Maryland, Washington State and California that have banks that did not want to comply and get fully integrated into the quantum financial system.

Those liberal states are the ones that have held back. If you say, Well, why did we just go around? Why don't just go around those states? Because the people in the states would be punished for it, and they didn't want the people that were in those states to not be able to exchange and not be able to get full advantage of this, this revaluation of these currencies.

So that is being handled for also a couple of Asian countries. And there was one two in Europe. There was actually England, part of the UK. The other parts of the UK are fine. They're all good to go  - and Germany, those two have been holdouts on getting fully integrated quantum financial system, and they're supposed to be fully integrated by tonight or overnight, tonight, or they're going to take those banks and sell them to other people, other banks. So the banks have got an impetus to get their act together tonight and overnight, tonight to get  fully integrated on the Quantum  financial system.

 That's our new banking system. That's why we didn't get notified today.

All right, now, let's take it further in terms of what happened this morning, early this morning, at Mar a Lago, President Trump addressed a privately held meeting with about 42 people in it, in a closed room environment. What do you think he told them about now who was at the meeting all of the tier one banks, major banks were there  Citibank,  Chase, Wells, Bank of America, Santander Bank was there, Truist bank.

All of these banks had their main leaders there - just one or two leaders from each bank, and they had a few regional VP’s  there, but only about a total of 42 people and President Trump told them that Iraq had had a currency the Iraqi dinar. That was a --  I call it a exoctic currency.

It's a currency that was not even of a value, that could be put on forex, along with a number of other currencies  and that those of us who saw the potential for it that was considered 20 years ago, a long shot.

 He said, some people have been invested in this for over two decades, and I've raised my hand slowly, Yep, I've been in it over 20 years. So, yeah, I did not really see it as a long shot, but it ends up it's something that's going to be very valuable, as you know, that currency, he said, is one that is one that is revalued in Iraq. And he mentioned the rate – so it’s a publically known rate –

Let's put it this way. It's an international rate. It is more than one rate that is right now, the rate for Iraq in Iraq this just a little over $6.20. Now it was trade up further as it's being traded actually now on Forex, and it will trade on up and we know where its going to end up  approximately on the redemption center screens, and we know about the contract rate, these people didn't get to told anything contract rate. Some might know about it.  The Wells Fargo guys would know about it, but I don't know that anybody else would know that. You guys know big call universe.

So the cool thing is, he also said that they would be, that redemption centers for these currencies would be, would be exchanged, and of course, the Zim redeemed, he didn't mention the Zoom today, but then was also going to be redeemed, obviously, at redemption center, that's where we get The name redemption from. And the beauty of it is that they are ready.

They are actually ready for us. And the bank systems have what we call a digital, golden digital wallet, and I think we can take that to mean the USN being asset backed. We can also take it ti mean that the crypto coins, the five crypto coins, are gold backed, and they're digital currencies, right? Digital coins, they're connected, interconnected and the whole thing is inter- connected with the quant um financial system and starlink satellite system.

And everything is basically hooked up and ready to go. We want those other four states, Maryland liberal -  Washington State, California, to be completely interconnected tonight, and President Trump said, and he didn't mention that this was those three things were not coming from President Trump this morning.

He said Iraq is completely revalued. They have that revalued rate I told you about. And he said it is available as soon as that rate went live, which it did this morning. He said immediately after, he said, within two days, within 48 hours, that would be exchangeable, exchangeable, referring to the Iraqi dinor.

Now that's what was said over a period of about 19 minutes, the total call. I mean, the total meeting lasted about 48 minutes with questions. Okay, so I think it was wonderful that President Trump brought this information out, and we were able to pass it on and say, you know, we're ready.

We're ready. They're ready. And I think that things look like we can get notified tomorrow and exchange either possibly tomorrow afternoon or Thursday, or we could get notified Thursday and go Thursday, it's hard to say, but the next two days are looking very, very good for us based on what President Trump did today.

And you know, it was Steven Mnuchin, the Treasury Secretary previously, who was no longer part of the Treasury, but he's out California making movies.  And Scott bassent, I'm sorry, Scott, if I call your name Bessent instead of Bessint, but I like the scent better, so I'm using that pronunciation and what what Mnuchin started, Scott bassent completed.

And so that's good, of course, completed under President Trump. It wasn't going to go under Obama or  President Biden. It wasn't going to go under either those two. So praise God that we are. We have a president wants this for all of us, and that it's going to happen here very soon.

So what else can I say quickly? How about we believe that DOGE payments will also this week as direct deposits, especially to people who have social security, because it go right into your bank account where you get that social every month. And also the R is going to be at the redemption center.

You get that when you tell them you know what you have for currencies and so on. I would say this, you guys mention the R and R at the redemption center to make sure they tell you how much it is and whether it's already in your quantum account.

Or they may have to do something to put the amount in your quantum account, and that's going to be nice to find out how much that is. Beyond that social security increases - have not seen them yet this month, I've heard they were supposed to take place this month. Take a look. We'll see. We'll see when that actually happens.

What else? R and R, DOGE, RV and social were the four areas that we're looking at, I think you guys that finally we're getting really ready to step off the roller coaster – that bar is just about ready to go up so we can step on out

 And the information we are getting from several sources – is pointing toward the – you know President Trump wants this and the DOGE  to start the week of Easter before Easter  Sunday, in other words, Today, all the way up to, let's say Saturday -  he wanted to start this week and be underway this week for exchanges and also the DOGE payments.

Think about it. DOGE payments come out  that goes to just about everybody, and that happens regardless of whether they have any currency or not, so we're going to be doubly blessed on that. So that's really what I wanted to say,.

I don’t know that there’s anything else that we need to know. It's, oh, I got one was one more little thing – on redemption center screens  - 17 currencies – that are going up substantially in value, and three of which  are going up gangbusters – in value  -- the Dinar -  Obviously one of them – another on the Dong – another  great one. – and I think the third, in my opinion, I think the third will be Venezuelan bolivar, because I know that that should have and we should be in really good shape if anybody has the Bolivar –

The other ones are going up and be somewhere in the vicinity  of four or $7 the other currencies  - Dinar  will be much higher.

Dong is going to be higher, and I think the Bolivar is going to be in the 4 – 7 range - But this is substantial move upward . This has really been a wonderful time for us to realize that this is the greatest turnover of wealth in the history of the world and you’re all a part of it.

When I first got invested in this over 20 years ago I thought to be a  fulfillment of Scripture, the wealth of the wicked is laid up for the just, or the wealth of the wicked is laid up for the righteous because we're the righteousness of God in Christ, not because of anything that we did to become righteous, He is said that we can become righteous in him, and that's how we got there. So we're the righteousness of God in Christ.

We're happy to say that this finally coming to fruition. Yeah, took a little on, but I believe we should start looking for emails tomorrow. Maybe it's not tomorrow, but it's Thursday, but it looked good.

President Trump said, in the next 48 hours, and he said, within the next 48 hours, So I’m excited about that, and I hope everyone else is,

And because all of you out there that are listening to the big call in your native language, some in English, but a lot in your other languages, and thank you for listening all these years.

Listen next Tuesday night, Thursday we have a call. If we do, I'd say it could very well be that celebration. So plan on going. I'll plan on being here for it. But let's see if, if that's what it becomes, let's see if it's a celebration call after all. All right, so let's pray the call out and we'll all go and see what happens tomorrow and Thursday.

So thank you, everybody for listening, we're going to turn off the recording now, guys, I appreciate you, and we'll look forward to doing celebration call. On Thursday night. All right, so we'll say sign same station on Thursday. Let's see if we have a sell something to celebrate. Okay. All right, everybody. Good night. God bless you all.
