Hooray hooray, the 17th of May! As the title implies - this is just a random post, because I felt like sharing some thoughts. Enjoy! Real Estate, Crypto, Dinar Social media sites aren’t a big part of my life these days, but reading what the public has to say about real estate, crypto, and a few other things is a good way to keep your finger on the pulse. Something jumped out at me early this morning as I was perusing the comments of the peanut gallery… you’ll see why I use that term in a second One person mentioned bitcoin, and another responded “Oh, I missed that ship”. I can understand why they would say that – BTC was around $29,000 when I looked at it yesterday. That’s a long way from the ATH (all time high) of over $68,000! But here is something I would almost guarantee… that same person probably said “I missed that ship” when BTC dropped from $1238 in 2013. Then they said the same thing after the next cycle, and the next "crash". And they said the same thing in 2018… And now they said it again today, and that mentality… that logic… is why they will always miss the crypto ship and every other ship that isn’t a guaranteed win. While many of us have and will make boatloads of money in the crypto space, that person (those people) will just keep on "missing the ship". Should you buy Bitcoin or any other Crypto right now? I can’t tell you that. Personally, I’ll continue to keep it on my radar (and yes, I am buying a little more today), but I can’t tell you what YOU should do. Real estate – another comment in another group was from someone who states: I’m not going to get into a long discussion about why this isn’t 2008, how lending regulations are completely different than the last huge crash, how inflation and irresponsible government spending and building regulations and population growth and housing shortage and… I could go on for a while, but I’ll just say this: In 2018, at a pretty key point in our current real estate market, I had many real estate investor friends tell me “this isn’t the time to keep buying real estate… a crash is coming.” They said the same thing though 2019… then through 2020… then through 2021… and they are still saying it today. My guess is they will continue to say it through 2022, and 2023, and at least partway through 2024. I’ll revise my current outlook on these things, based on what happens today, tomorrow, and beyond. Am I telling anyone here to invest in Real Estate, or Crypto, or Dinar? NOPE. I don’t know what’s right for you, and I won’t tell you what to do with your time, money, or anything else. Here’s what I will say: When BTC was at $10, I believed in it. When BTC was around $700, I recommended it to the good people here on DV. I did that based on 1. The fundamentals and 2. My understanding of it and 3. A little bit of calm, detached, rational thinking and reasoning, based on my understanding of the world, people, and economics. Because I believed in it, I continued buying in, and it’s worked out very well. When the Real Estate market was going bonkers in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021… same thing. At this point, BTC could go to $0 and I will still have came out ahead – because I bought, sold, took profits, and stayed the course through the cycles. Many of our VIP members are in the exact same boat. Real Estate will never go to $0, but what if we were to see another 2008 and it loses 15 or 20% overnight? Anyone who’s invested right since 2008, 2012, 2013 or even 2013 has had ample time to double their money, so an overnight loss of even 40% (more than 2008!) will still possibly be UP... can your 401k say that? At this point, you have been reading for a few minutes. We have shared some time together, and you know this hasn’t really been about Dinar… but at the same time, you also know it is all about Dinar. Those people that make comments about missing the ship on Crypto, and those people that have been running around like “Chicken Little” or Marvin from Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy ( )... well, you can lead a horse to water, but I'm going to laugh at you if you try to force it to drink. So, bring on the comments about how long you've been waiting. Tell us all about how Iraq "never does anything", or this whole idea is bonkers, or how the market is going to crash. I'm going to keep on keeping on, and just like with Crypto and Real Estate... I'll save my "I told you so's", because those people won't listen anyway. The fundamentals that first got me into the Dinar are still there, and in fact, they are stronger than they were when I first got in. I'm sticking this one out. Oh.... GO RRRRRVVVVVVVV!!!! P.S. VIP / OSI - keep an eye out for an email and a couple posts in the VIP/OSI sections.

Hang on, I have to clarify something... GO RRRRRVVVVVVVV!!!! That's better

The political blockage is hindering the formation of the government The Only blockage is the government colon and it is clogged with shiite!!!

looks like the Hcl is about to be legislated? we are definitely close imo… go RV

Couldn't agree with you more Luigi. The whole world has to put on their Big Boy Pants and end this tyranny. If we don't game over WE don't have any other choice. If we stick to together God wins and so do WE!! It's GO TIME!!

I’m seeing the same thing in the Crypto Market as I did after the Tech bubble burst. The speculative run is over as the market matures. The Market is shaking out the weak hands and the inexperienced traders. (dumb money). The Crypto Market is moving from infancy to maturity, from wild speculation to utility, from rejection to adoption. Try to hold on as it’s probably going to be a tough time as all markets clean up the excess of too much liquidity. I remain confident in my commitment to the sector and will continue to DCA (dollar cost average) into my favorite ISO 20022 projects (XRP,XDC,XLM, ALGO, and two others that are FinCen compliant Hbar, and QNT). The herd has become extremely negative since the Luna sell off and the coming US Regulatory measures. To me it’s all part of the process. People will tell you to only invest what you can afford to lose. That’s good advice but also invest in quality utility driven projects. It’s very possible that 90% of the current Cryptos listed on Exchanges will not survive the coming Crypto Winter. Get your coins off those Exchanges and into a Cold Wallet!!!! Thank you for your thoughts Adam. I always enjoy reading what you have to say on investments.

I agree horsesoldier, Sadr should call on the people to start protesting on the streets. He has done it before. Go Sadr Go protesters Go revolution

Appreciate the very thoughtful post! Many bought into the IQD concept strictly as a get rich quick concept....and with years of hype by the often times dishonest "Guru's"....I understand the distaste some have. I would suggest they study the concept of currency reform that is in process around the World if they would like a better understanding. Crypto in my World would be better referenced as "Blockchain". Blockchain is in its early stages, similar to when the "internet" was first blossoming in the early 90's, and because this asset class is in the very early stages, with a little effort you should be able to learn all you need to to get involved. There is quite a library on this in the VIP section...and some members have done very well. Like most things in life, those who have put in the work have profited. CL

The fact the UN keeps insisting they get this ironed out once and for all speaks volumes. It seems to be key to Iraq actually moving forward. You have to admit that Iraq was moving mountains and kicking arse when Kazami first hit the scene. Even he is twiddling his thumbs now waiting on Sadr to clean up on isle 9 and the UN to convince Kurdistan to get off their High Horse!. We already know if Kazami has anything to do with it on his part, it will get done!

Remember, no one really knows what will happen, or when. They're simply stating their opinions based on what they perceive to be happening in Iraq... RON *** Mnt Goat So, Iraq currently has two main ongoing critical sagas now taking place... The first is the elections and forming the new government...I want everyone to remember that months ago the CBI told us that the initiative to complete the currency changeover and thus later the reinstatement, was approved and just waiting for the president to be announced and then the rest of the political process to form the government to follow. The second is getting the 2022 budget.

The more the crisis goes on in Iraq, the more it sounds exactly like what's going on in our own country.

Now that’s a crappy analogy. 💩

Thank you Adam, it is great to hear from you and read your news. I found in my early days of buying and holding Dinar and Cryptocurrency that I met so many naysayers and listened to their negative comments that I decided not to express a positive or negative opinion about it to anyone. However as I’m ageing by the day I am hoping that I will eventually realise gain in either the Dinar or Crypto in the not to distant future that I may live out my days relaxing stress free. Thank you once again and God Bless you and your family🙏

Luigi found this bank story... For your entertainment purposes, only. Treat as a rumor. Not verified. Your opine. Holly: via Jamie: I just came back from the bank. There’s a guy there that I’ve spoken to for many years we’re pretty much friends and we’ve discussed the RV in private number of times. I pulled up to the window teller,he was there and the first thing I said was “it’s almost go time!” He shook his head in agreement and whispered into the mic yes in June and then he pointed to his ear like people are listening. All of a sudden two women popped their heads out and we’re trying to listen to what I was saying so they may have been managers but he hast to be quiet. However, he repeated…in June

From the throat of the goat. I see the Goat is still talking to the CBI.

BRING ON THE PEPTO BISMOL

Remember, no one really knows what will happen, or when. They're simply stating their opinions based on what they perceive to be happening in Iraq... RON *** Militiaman As for when it will happen is always a question in many peoples minds...The whole process is unique...We can see that by the likes of the WB, the IMF, the AMF, the G7, G20+, WTO, AYSCUDA, BUNA, CRS2, ISO20022 digital platforms and or systems, etc.. Interlinking all those entities while trying to sort a convoluted process of seating the government to have credibility is directly in the forefront today. They'll all need that to have the confidence needed for investors to have security and stability. *** Mark ...the first reading of the Food Security law has happened. They will read a bill 3 times and it is already receiving overwhelming support. The second reading is tomorrow. I do not know how quickly we will get a third reading. Now for the Questionable part of his post regarding his supposed contacts: When the last reading is done and passed…contacts in Iraq tell me that is when we will get the new rate…This is what I am told from people that work inside Iraq and involved with the Finance Ministry. This is fantastic news... *** Kaperoni ...There is no exchange in Reno. The only exchanges that have talked about in Reno were scams and people lost their funds.

This has all the earmarks of Iraqi citizens going ballistic as the hit the streets with a vengeance.

And your surprised? I can’t stand to turn on the news for last few years ever since Donald Trump made me realize who the media is. A couple other people that live in my household listen to the news and getting really upset at what they are hearing. I told them I don’t want to hear any news except the news we are waiting for and that is all those corrupt politicians has finally been locked up or hung in the gallows are fired upon by the firing squad. I want to see them squirm as traders, and brainwashers thieves liars Scum bags. So if you are surprised that the brainwashed don’t understand you, you will wear yourself out trying. Good luck.

and Lead......

No surprises here. If you persecute the masses they will rebel. That's what they want because elites don't care. They want them suffer. If you think the dust storms is climate change it's More like geoengineering for bad weather everywhere. If you think a dust storm is bad. Wait till the people rise Up! Been going on for millennia. SOS...Same Ole Shiite different day Time to play hard ball Iraq!!

Lol. I saw blood clots and thought covid vaccine. Sand, an excuse for the vaccine side effects. Lol. Thats all they got. Really, come on man.

Remember, no one really knows what will happen, or when. They're simply stating their opinions based on what they perceive to be happening in Iraq... RON *** Clare Article: "The Iraqi parliament sets tomorrow, Wednesday, the first reading of the Food Security Law" *** Mark Question: [what is the first reading of the food security law which is scheduled for tomorrow. Is that a Vote?] It could be a vote…we don’t know at this time. They are expected to read it and possibly approve it if there are no changes made. We are also hearing they are to present several candidates to set their government tomorrow. So we expect tomorrow to be a big day in Iraqi politics. *** Pimpy Let's review again the criteria necessary to change the exchange rate. You have to have a stable government. Do we have one? No. The other one is you have to have a safe and stable country. Does Iraq have a safe and stable country? Well they're launching missiles - I'm gonna go out on a limb and say no they don't. Will all the fighting with political members and people launching missiles at one another it makes it really hard to change the exchange rate. You have to have a country outside investors feel comfortable and safe about investing into. *** Mnt Goat ...in 2011 the plan was laid out in an article by the CBI. So far they have stuck to this plan. We have seen all the necessary banking reforms, the completion of payment of war debt to Kuwait and all the necessary ties into the international investment arena so that the dinar could be used internationally. Why would they bother to do all this if they were not going to reinstate the dinar and trade the dinar internationally? ...This reinstatement is coming as there is just too many past events that paved the way to it already to doubt...This is the perfect time for the reinstatement of the dinar. *** Sandy Ingram Community Comment: "Oil has nothing to do with Iraq's revalue, float or whatever they're going to do." ..This could not be further from the truth...a county's finances has everything to do with the foreign exchange rate thus we talk about Iraq's huge oil revenue and how they are adding to their streams of income. It looks like Iraq's income is about to become even larger...

Sadr Rules Out Iraq Consensus Government; No Unity With Rival Shi’ite Blocs Warns rivals are examples of 'corruption and vice' by Jason Ditz Posted onMay 16, 2022CategoriesNewsTagsIraq Bids to form a new Iraqi government continue to fail, with cleric Moqtada al-Sadr ruling out a consensus government with any of the rival Shi’ite blocs, and those blocs so far preventing him from forming a majority government with his chosen allies. The Sadrist Movement has the largest plurality in Iraq from the October election, but still needs a substantial number of allies to form a majority. Sadr has courted the Kurdish Democrats, as well as a Sunni Arab bloc, as the core of that majority. Rival Shi’ite faction State of Law has been courting the exact same factions to both try to prevent Sadr from governing, and to try to either piece together an alternative, or more likely, to try to force Sadr to let them into a grand coalition. Sadr slammed the other Shi’ite factions, saying they are examples of the corruption and vice his party stands against. He also warned the public simply wouldn’t tolerate continued rule by the corrupt. Sadr’s anti-corruption position has been popular with voters, but for a representational system of government, Iraq is a very difficult one to form majority governments in, which is why in the past either the United States or Iran stepped in as king-makers to work out hand-picked coalitions. Sadr’s interest in Iraqi autonomy means he isn’t a favorite of either side, and his plurality would make it hard for anyone to work around him. https://news.antiwar.com/2022/05/16/sadr-rules-out-iraq-consensus-government-no-unity-with-rival-shiite-blocs/

The UN is speaking the language of the people. The Iraqi people are so frustrated with these politicians and their corruption (as are most of us on this forum). The solution is get the government in place, reach an agreement on oil and gas law and move their economy forward. Those 3 steps would put Iraq in position to go international with their currency and finally RV. Somehow someone needs to get rid of Maliki. He is a cancer and a spoiler of all progress that is good in that country.

Luigi found this article of Dinarian interests.. UN warns Iraq over impasse. Iraq must get it's own House in order. Iraq risks dangers of civil war & return to ISIS. Treat as a rumor. Not verified. Your opine. TNT: Tishwash: The United Nations warns of “the boiling of the Iraqi street” due to the failure of its leaders. The UN warned of “Iraqi people’s anger that may explode at any moment”, due to the failure of political leaders to address a number of basic issues, including the suffering of the Iraqi citizen from poverty lack of security. Jenin Hennis-Plasschaert, the UN envoy to Iraq, said after a UN Security Council session that Iraq & the region could not afford to return to October 2019. And she warned that “the negative aspects of Iraqi political life are still repeating themselves in an apparently continuous cycle of zero-sum policy,” adding that “more than seven months after the parliamentary elections, several deadlines for forming the government were missed.”

This is the latest & most up to date bank story from 2003.

They really need to include the year in these bank stories, lol it’s all good, pp

I hope members here will re-read Montana's post.... He isn't about hype....and he's not your financial director...but there is a great deal more to this site than the speculative investment of the IQD... Below is a short video....Larry Kudlow interviewing Brian Brooks...(be sure you listen to the resume Brooks has) Adam wrote this in his post: +++++++++++++++ "One person mentioned bitcoin, and another responded “Oh, I missed that ship”. I can understand why they would say that – BTC was around $29,000 when I looked at it yesterday. That’s a long way from the ATH (all time high) of over $68,000!

Exactly @jg1 I have a mother in-law and several others with blood clots from the vaccine.

I enjoy reminding righties we're the only ones in our right mind.. that's the problem, only elect left handed people!

I guess you missed this video. Keep trusting the Main Stream Media. You're just another Happy to eat whatever b.s. they shovel at you. I bet you think it is ok to vaccinate 5-11 year olds knowing they're getting hepatitis from the vaccines.

Thanks Adam......I remain optimistic, but I'm not a spring chicken either, I just want to leave a legacy of something!

This is from TNT, pay no attention.

I am all for her stance and message on the oil issue. So glad she is speaking up They say politicians are puppets. She looks like a mannequin in the pic. Love it when women get tough. Listen up manly type politicians

I'll agree with Caddie that it is the right, and decision for the parents to make. If parents are just drinking the MSM, WHO and CDC koolaid....they probably need to step their parenting skills up a notch... Vaccinating young ones is unnecessary and a mistake IMO.......CL

This would lead me to believe a float is more likely...CL earc الجامعة aluation Main Page main page The Iraqi Journal of Economic Sciences publishes an article on the Iraqi dinar between the polemics of flotation and devaluation http://uomustansiriyah.edu.iq/images/Depts_posts/post_221/5799_2022_05_15!12_10_01.jpg main page 2022/05/15 12:10:01 مساءً 31 The Iraqi Journal of Economic Sciences, issued by the College of Administration and Economics - Mustansiriyah University, published in its seventy-first issue for the month of December 2021 an article under the title (The Case and Opinion / The Iraqi Dinar between the Dialectics of Flotation and Devaluation) by Dr. Mazhar Muhammad Salih / Adviser to the Prime Minister for Financial and Economic Affairs. The article indicates that despite the monetary policy of the Central Bank of Iraq following the shock method in adjusting the value of the Iraqi dinar with the procedures of December 19, 2020, but the reduction in the dinar exchange rate at a rate of 20% was identical to the deficit in the current account of the Iraqi balance of payments relative to the GDP The total, which was estimated at about (negative 20%) for the year 2020. The debate remained among some economists about the importance of the Central Bank of Iraq resorting to the floating currency philosophy as a prelude to gradual adjustment instead of adopting the method of shock and surprise to the market with a low, alternative external value of the Iraqi dinar overnight. Overnight!). Floating the currency exchange rate in essence means adopting an exchange system according to which the external value of the national currency is determined according to the forces of supply and demand in the exchange market. This comes in contrast to the fixed exchange system, in which the monetary authority or the central bank determines the value of the dinar against foreign currency in advance and according to the rules of its monetary policy. In spite of the foregoing, and in order to explain the importance of the policy of (floating the Iraqi dinar and adopting an equilibrium rate in the exchange market instead of (devaluation) according to the (shock) method that occurred in the value of the Iraqi dinar at the end of 2020, we must state in this regard the following: First: In our economy of a unilateral rentier (sovereign) nature, the Central Bank of Iraq (the central market) is the monopoly in providing sources of foreign currency supply through open market operations. Second: In the developing (non-rentier) economies that are diversified in the sources of supply of their foreign currency and their trade openness to import and export through free market forces. But the question remains about the importance of the flotation, whether the Iraqi market cannot correct the exchange rates in the flotation when the central bank raises its hand as a central market so that the forces of demand appear in a market in which supply falters without continuous and intensive intervention that meets the demand for foreign currency without the intervention of the monetary authority.
