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... So, take everything with a grain of salt ... RON 6-1-2025 Militia Man The UN stating...Iraq's going to be a banking powerhouse in the coming days...The UN statement is a pretty big deal. Article Quote: "The UN supports Iraq's approach with this transformation that is expected in the coming days.' 6-1-2025 Pimpy Article: "UN: Iraq will become an internal and external banking force" That's what we're hoping for, that's why our fingers are crossed. Quote: "Iraq is coming to a regional and international benefit to restore its status." That's one of the big steps Iraq needs to do for the dinar to be trading onto the Forex. 6-1-2025 Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Alaq on television now again, this is the 4th time he's on TV today and he's saying the CBI is constantly reviewing the deletion of the zeros project and there are no restrictions, there are no balances with America. We are ready to go. FRANK: Oh, buddy..! ... Can you say Article VIII..!

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... So, take everything with a grain of salt ... RON 5-30-2025 Frank26 Forex just put the Iraqi dinar on the international trading platform. It's not live or active yet but it's in position! 5-30-2025 Pimpy Just cause Iraq has a lot of money doesn't make their currency valuable. There's more factors involved. 5-30-2025 Militia Man The Central Bank of Iraq...the powers that be, only show us what they want us to see. They're not going to give us the specific date and they're not going to tell us how much. They're just going to show us. That's my view. 5-30-2025 Walkingstick If the American dollar is $1 and it if it's paired to the Iraqi dinar that means the Iraq dinar is $1. That is called a nominal value. That is what every country seeks. In this case it's also seeking a REER - real effective exchange rate. That's because it's reaching a nominal value. 5-30-2025 Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Mr. Sammy says...They say soon the parallel market price will come to match the official CBI rate. That's how it's going to be fixed. However I still believe somewhere around 1390 to maybe 1350 or 1340 that will be close that they will roll out the new rate. FRANK: This is so close. It's like your breath to your lungs. 5-30-2025 Clare Article: "A government advisor told Al-Ghad Press: The dollar is declining against the strength of the dinar by 16%." Quote: "The dollar in the parallel market is witnessing a downward trend against the strength of the Iraqi dinar, with a downward change rate of about 16% since the beginning of the first quarter, and this has been continuous and gradual. The reasons for the dollar's decline have become very clear, led by the change in the foreign exchange policy adopted by the Central Bank of Iraq..." 5-30-2025 Pimpy People ask me which currency do I think is going to go first. It's hard to say. There's a couple things to take in consideration. Vietnam is nowhere like where Iraq is. Their currency is actually more depreciated than Iraqi dinar but Vietnam is already an active member of the World Trade Organization. There's no real restrictions on Vietnam from the United States. Their economy is booming. There's really just a couple of things Vietnam could do to help increase the value of their currency and they have to want to do it. 5-30-2025 Militia Man Article: "The Central Bank: Our measures contributed to lowering the exchange rate, and the decline is not temporary" Iraq is clearly showing that interlinking into the international financial system is taking place and the Central Banks is now in the final stages. Let's keep in mind the importance...of what is taking place is indirectly and directly necessary for a revaluation of Iraq's currency. It takes all of what is taking place, in cooperation and coordination from stakeholders with their support, with regional and international partners support as well. We have witnessed all of the afore. Powerful times!

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... So, take everything with a grain of salt ... RON 5-29-2025 Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Guy is doing a television show...from the Central Bank of Iraq. He's telling...the dollar is declining. The exchange rate is going down. He told us this decline is timely and then he said it's steps and mechanisms that have been taken by the CBI...We do see...our currency is getting stronger. FRANK: The decline of the dollar is definitely on purpose...The monetary reform plan was to remove any foreign currency and by doing so it would add value to the Iraqi dinar...This was done on purpose in order to bring you a new exchange rate...purchasing power. 5-29-2025 MarkZ [via PDK] I don’t think there is any hold up. I think it is just rolling out...I have a lot of bankers saying it could be $4.81…Some say $4.91...they are saying somewhere in that range the rate is staying constant. I wish someone would just give them the “release” so we were allowed to exchange. 5-29-2025 Militia Man There's a reason for the constant avoidance of the 2023/2024 budget schedules. Article 22 paragraph C isn't exposed yet. You have to ask yourself why haven't they done that yet. If they were going to be going into the international [world] at 1310...why didn't they do that at the beginning of 2023? They don't have an answer for that. 5-29-2025 Clare Article: "RepJoeWilson My letter today with @RepGregSteube to Secretary Rubio asking for sanctioning Iraq to be included as part of maximum pressure." Quote: "We write to express our deep concern over the complete subjugation of Iraq to the Iranian regime... Today, Iraq stands an nothing more than a puppet of Tehran...The National Security Policy Memorandum-2 of Feb 4, 2025 clearly articulates the reimposition of maximum pressure on Iran...Any campaign against the Iranian regime, will require an equally robust campaign against Iraqi institutions, which have become essential clients for the Iranian regime." 5-29-2025 Pimpy Community Comment: "Iraq will reinstate their currency to Forex which will start at a fixed rate, then will slowly float/adjust based on market conditions." No that's not going to happen because you can't be on the Forex and have a fixed rate. The Forex is for trading currencies. There won't be no fixed rate. If it makes it to the Forex that means they believe in the market to determine their exchange rate. There is no fixed rate on the Forex. 5-29-2025 Frank26 Forex Executive Summary quote: "This memo confirms the Iraqi dinar is fully armed for public rate visibility at $4.81 which activates infrastructure interrogation, live suspension, staging and institutional level confrontation. The rate is suppressed but loaded across all FX-UV telemetry layers. Release is now dependent solely on coordinated political timing optics." I want you to understand it's not trading yet. It's not active yet. It's not live yet. 5-29-2025 MarkZ Article: “Reasons for the continuous decline in dollar exchange rates in Iraq” CBI economists say its because they have made tremendous changes in Iraq to bring monetary stability. They expect it to continue to increase the dinar value. I think we are about to see the CBI to make a substantial change in the value of the dinar. ***** Wednesday Midnight Opinions ***** 5-28-2025 Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Sudani met today with the board of directors from the CBI. All the banks were there too. Now in front of everybody he replaced some of the board of directors that were not on board with the new digital system. FRANK: Sudani just fired a bunch of [CBI] board of directors and replaced them with those that want to have the monetary reform. 5-28-2025 Pimpy There is no 'Tier 1, 2, 3'. That's all a lie. There is nothing going on in Reno that you need to worry about. That's all bull ****. 5-28-2025 Militia Man We have not seen the 2023/24 budget schedules yet and they're not going to see those in the parliament until, I believe, they expose an exchange rate. That's where we're at. 5-28-2025 Paulette I am hopeful that perhaps the 1390 [Market Rate] target is to enact the Delete the Zeros project (RD/RV) resulting in an annihilation of the Market Rate. This would then result in Article 8 obligation compliance in order to get to the RI stage. This would be congruent with the 2009 MOP/MOF report of "initially a rate of 1.14-1.18 and held there for a period" - prior to "restoring the true rate of 3.208." I sure hope we are close.

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... So, take everything with a grain of salt ... RON 5-29-2025 Frank26 Do you believe it was the IMF that released those two [Forex] paragraphs?" Yeah I do because you can trace it. You can find it. Those paragraphs are about the white papers. The White Papers is the blueprint of the economic reform of Iraq because of the success of the monetary reform. 5-29-2025 Militia Man Article: "Central Bank: Our measures contribute to lowing the exchange rate and the decline is not temporary." Lowering the rate exchange rate of the dollar to the dinar...that's what that means. 5-29-2025 Pimpy People act like I want the zeros to be taken off [the dinar notes]. No. I want the zeros to stay on so I could benefit from it finically just like everybody else. I'm just making sure you are aware that this is a possibility. We all want the zeros to stay on there. I at least need to make sure you're aware there's a possibility they'll delete the zeros before they change the exchange rate. 5-29-2025 Kaperoni Community comment: Maybe a little momentum started." Yes! 5-29-2025 Samson Article: "US warning of Tehran's influence on Baghdad's relations with Erbil" Quote: "US Secretary of State Marco Rubio's statement regarding the rise of Iranian influence in Iraq." 5-29-2025 Walkingstick This [Forex] memo confirms the Iraqi dinar is fully armed for public rate visibility at $4.81 with active infrastructure integration, live suppression staging and institutional level confirmation. We believe this to be true. What that paragraph means is the IQD is now convertible [and] has absolutely no restrictions on the currency at all - Article VIII.

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... So, take everything with a grain of salt ... RON 5-28-2025 MarkZ What I learned over the “FX-VU Strategic Release memo - $4.8101 IQD Anchor and Post Forex Convergence” So far is, it is not a government article. But it does represent a researchers tremendous amount of work. It has led to us tracking down other things that are pointing at it. There are many indicators towards this. Somebody may have spent hundreds of hours putting this together. My hat is off to whoever did this research. There is supporting evidence that they may be dead on concerning the rate projection which has me very excited. 5-28-2025 Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Television is showing us the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar currency against the dollar has dropped again. It dropped another 100 from yesterday. This is insane. It's moving so fast. The dinar is gaining strength every day. 5-28-2025 Walkingstick The United States of America is working on an act. The act is called Free Iraq from Iran. It's a congressional act. HR-2658. It was done on April 3, 2025. 5-28-2025 Clare Article: "The Central Bank told Al-Eqtisad News: Our measures contributed to lowering the exchange rate, and the decline is not temporary." Quote: "The Director of the Investment Department at the Central Bank of Iraq, Muhammad Younis, confirmed on Wednesday that the decline in the dollar exchange rate in local markets is not temporary. The Central Bank possesses substantial foreign currency reserves and is capable of controlling exchange rates." 5-28-2025 Sandy Ingram Representatives Joe Wilson of South Carolina who is a Republican and Jimmy Panetta a Democrat from California introduced a bill called the Free Iraq From Iran Act...The bill will need to go to the Senate and then be signed by the president. You as IQD investor want to understand this bill because it is a game changer. The first thing the bill calls for dismantling Iran backed militants within Iraq's borders, including the PMF Popular Mobilization Forces. This is all set to end Iran's dominance in Iraq's political system. [Post 1 of 2 Reposted] 5-28-2025 Sandy Ingram The next thing the bill proposes, and this is the kicker, ceasing US security assistance to the Iraq government unless all Iran-backed militants are dismantled, meaning Iraq ceases to support terrorism and these militant are removed from Iraqi security forces and government ministries. This is major. This puts an end to Iraq and Iran holding hands. Over $100 billion Iraqi's bank account is at stake. Iraq is still under shadow sanctions. The next thing on the bill...calls for expanding American broadcasting efforts. more mainstream media to expose war crimes and corruption associated with Iran-baked militants. [Post 2 of 2]

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... So, take everything with a grain of salt ... RON 5-27-2025 MarkZ Article: “Dollar continues to fall in Baghdad” I have been told that once the black market reaches the same rate as the free market…they will have a rate change. 5-27-2025 Clare Article: "The dollar exchange rate in Iraq fell to its lowest level in months." Quote "...at exchange offices in Baghdad's local markets, the selling price reached 139,750 dinars per $100, while the buying price reached 141,750 dinars per $100." 5-27-2025 Pimpy Iraq has been doing a really good job of staying out of conflicts/trouble. With an election coming up are they going to be able to continue on the straight and narrow and if Sudani doesn't win you're looking at months before they choose another PM. If another PM takes over Iraq what other kind of hassles are we going to have to deal with? 5-27-2025 Frank26 Article quote: "exchange shops in the local market in Baghdad to record to 139750 dinars for $100." Oh my goodness! ...What was it before? 114750...Do you understand the seriousness of what's going on with this monetary reform? This stuff is off the hook...You know how close we are to getting to 1 to 1? 5-27-2025 Mnt Goat Remember for your thought process that a rise in the rate of the dinar is less dinars to the US dollar not more. I know it is backwards to what some believe as we call a rise usually means more not less. So, actually it is a downward trend in the number of dinars to make up one US dollar. This strengthens the dinar. So, if the official rate is 1320 we want the dollars in the parallel market to reflect the same or less rate of 1320. 5-27-2025 tishwash Article: "The Sudanese Ministry of Finance directs the Ministry of Finance to prepare the budget tables for approval, amounting to 140 trillion dinars." If this is true this is good.

Iraq will be changed by the DRP in 3 major ways: 1. Diversification of Revenue beyond oil... 2. Job creation...this employment surge will increase household incomes and stimulate domestic consumption, all of which point to a higher IQD value. 3. Transportation infrastructure enhancement will reduce shipping times between Asia and Europe making Iraq a competitive alternative to traditional routes like the Suez Canal. [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned] 5-26-2025 Frank26 What was the exchange rate in 1980? In 1971 and 1973 of the Iraq dinar rose to $3.3778. Shortly after that there was a 5% devaluation that reduced it to $3.2169...They're talking about a rate that is a reinstatement rate...Logic says it should be $3.20 something IMO. 5-26-2025 Mnt Goat Article: “TOP IRANIAN OFFICIAL SAYS TEHRAN WOULD FORGO HIGHLY ENRICHED URANIUM IN NUCLEAR DEAL WITH TRUMP” Quote: "...Iran is ready to sign a nuclear deal with certain conditions with President Donald Trump in exchange for lifting economic sanctions..." This could finally end the negotiations and the middle east could possibly see PEACE. Most importantly this opens a window wide open for Iraq and aspects of the RV, as I am told by my CBI contact. 5-26-2025 Pimpy Community Comment "Here's the receipts for Trump's remarks about the USA holding 35 billion dinar. Go to the 2:47 mark." A lot of people misunderstand what he's talking about. What Trump is talking about is the fact that when Iraq sells their oil, the money gets transferred into the account here in the United States. That's the money he's talking about that we have of theirs. He's just saying in the interview that we have $35 billion of Iraq's money currently in an account and that comes from the oil sales not an investment. [See Trump video below. ] 5-26-2025 MarkZ Article: “Maximizing non-oil revenues reaches 60%: Expert identifies Iraq’s needs “ They are 60% done towards their goal. This is part of the stability of the Iraqi economy. I did not know they were this far along in progress.

RON 5-24-2025 Sandy Ingram Iran to share nuclear technology with Iraq. It is believed the United States will drop Iraq into despair over the leak of US dollars into Iran and Syria. Be prepared, this could get ugly for the Iraqi dinar exchange rate. The US government is insisting on a breakup between Iran and Iraq mostly because the finances are blurred. 5-24-2025 Frank26 The monetary reform is biting and kicking and scratching but it's put in the position so that as soon as the gates are open, woo, everything just explodes! That would be the contracts, all the investors that are being put in position so that once this blessing occurs boom! They take off at the speed of light. 5-24-2025 MarkZ We...have Article: “US Department of State Secretary Rubio and Barzani at Friday 1:30 pm est and 8:30 pm Erbil” they met in the US and they had two different meetings I was told. It was hailed as a “breakthrough” for oil to start flowing from that region and for them to settle all disputes between Baghdad and the Kurdish region. I was told over a decade ago that when those two came together - we would see a change in value of the dinar. That is why I watch this. 5-24-2025 Militia Man What Iraq's going to go through is going to be a massive event. It's obvious they're transitioning from a paper society to a digital society. It's very important that there's acceptance with the public. A revaluation comes into play... 5-24-2025 Pimpy Question: "Where can somebody exchange? Banks refuse to touch [Iraqi dinar]." I would look for people who do currency exchanges like international airports. For travelers there's places that sell currency and buy currencies where you can exchange it. You just have to look it up. But, yeah, most banks won't touch it at the moment. I can't find one around here but an international airport most likely would do it for you and some people have currency exchanges in their shopping malls. 5-24-2025 Clare Article: "PM Barzani, US Treasury Official Discuss Financial Reforms in Washington" Quote: "Kurdistan Region Prime Minister Masrour Barzani met with U.S. Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Bradley Smith in Washington...to discuss ongoing financial reforms and digital modernization efforts by the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG)." 5-24-2025 Frank26 The CBI came out last night and told the citizens of Iraq, 'we know you got 90%-93% [dinar hoarded under your mattress]. We know that...Security and stability used to be the problem. We got that. Now you're the problem Iraqi citizen...We want you to bring in your 3-zero note. When you do, deposit them in 'My Accounts' - they'll be safe and secure. Then when we raise the value of your currency, boom, automatically they are adjusted and you get credit for what you had...We want to become a digitalized nation. Bring them in for crying out lout. We have 'My account' established for you.' That's where we're at. The CBI knows very well what they need in order to release the new exchange rate.

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... So, take everything with a grain of salt ... RON 5-25-2025 Sandy Ingram The State Bank of Vietnam continues to manage the currency tightly allowing only gradual movements...The VNK is expected to see a modest depreciation potentially reaching 26,940 per dollar by year end. This is driven by continues US dollar strength, US tariffs on Vietnamese exports and Vietnam's strategy to maintain export competitiveness through a slightly weaker dong. In other words it is a financial strategy for Vietnam to keep its currency low. Let's hope Iraq does not develop the same habit. 5-25-2025 Pimpy This has been talked about a lot lately. Article: "90% of Iraq's money supply held outside banks:PM advisor" This isn't good because if they don't have enough dinars to work their economy the economy is going to be limited in growth...I don't know about you guys but if they want to raise the exchange rate just a little bit I'm sure there a huge group of us be more than happy to send a lot of Iraqi dinars back to the country! 5-25-2025 Militia Man 2023 Article quote: "...Because the project to delete the zeros still exists [Alaq] says when this is done correctly we can expect Iraq to become a strong dinar that is considered a store of value and perhaps even stronger than the dinar that was before 1980." That's the expectation of this - before 1980. That's coming from the Central Bank of Iraq. 5-25-2025 Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Alaq the central bank governor was on the news talking about the deletion of the 3 zeros is still on and it's on time. When it's correct time I will reveal a stronger dinar than one before 1980. Then Alaq talked about we have all approvals from the IMF and World Bank and US Treasury. Sounds like Alaq is taking us up to something big coming. 5-25-2025 MarkZ Article: ”90% of Iraq’s money supply is held outside of the banks” This is according to the Prime ministers advisor. This is massive. They do not want to let go of their currency. Why are they hoarding dinar? I think they know why they are hoarding. 5-25-2025 Mnt Goat They tell us the Arab Summit was a success and Iraq once again takes a major role in the middle east. But if they are to be a leader than where is their currency? It certainly is not yet a currency of a leading country.

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... So, take everything with a grain of salt ... RON 5-21-2025 Kaperoni Though many people feel that they haven't seen any results, significant improvements in Iraq include the central bank's efforts to transition to digital. The two-year plan to integrate the banking system with the global financial system is a critical step. 5-21-2025 Militia Man Article quote: "We are expecting a strong and robust economy with GDP growth of 5.3%...The giant strategic projects planned through 2028 confirm Iraq is on the verge of a major economic renaissance." That is a big increase... 5-21-2025 Frank26 IMO things are happening and moving very fast. Has an awful lot to do with Donald Trump. Nothing against Sudani but he was just slow because he's surrounded by a lot of issues that cause him to think twice...The banks are sharing information in Iraq the same way American banks are now sharing information with us. 5-21-2025 Pimpy Community comment: If the Iraqi government do something like deleted the zeros and devalue the 25,000 bank note down to 25, IMO this will hurt the trust of Iraqi government because they allowed the sale of the dinar understanding that this was an option in recuperation towards the Iraq government economy." The Iraqi people don't give a **** if you bought their currency and invested in it. It doesn't look bad on them. The Iraqi government didn't make any promises about the Iraqi dinar...If you took that gamble, that's on you. [Post 1 of 2] 5-21-2025 Pimpy I would call it a devalue because they're not devaluing. All they're doing is changing the way the bank notes look. So instead of 25,000 dinar, you now have 25 dinar. That's the nominal value. That's just the way the note looks...It's not being devalued, it's still the same...Right now the exchange rate on 25,000 dinar is .00076...you get $19. When they delete the 3 zeros off the bank notes...they're going to take the 3 zeros off the exchange rate. So now it's going to be 25 x .76 which comes out to $19. The value of the dinar stays the same. The bank note, the nominal value, is the thing that's going to change. [Post 2 of 2] 5-21-2025 Fnu Lnu Article quote: "A recent audit and monitoring of company practices revealed that some exchange firms have been charging citizens a commission of 50,000 dinars for purchasing dollars, double the amount stipulated by official directives." This is exactly what I'm talking about when it comes to honesty in Iraq. They would rather steal a dime instead of earn a dollar. Theft and cheating has become a way of survival in this country, unjustly accused and excessively punished. It has been two generations since the Iraqis have known normal and everyone tries to best the system. They are not ready to RI/RV the currency until practices are uniform and legit.

RON 5-20-2025 Fnu Lnu There are no back screens, redemption centers, alternative rates being offered to special people. Stay calm and all will be revealed. 5-20-2025 Pimpy Article: "Prime Minister's Advisor: Baghdad summit took place regularly and Iraq regained its leading role" This is an important place for Iraq. They once were the lead over in the Middle East and it looks like they're regaining their spot. There are big things coming for Iraq and Iraqi people all tied into the economy. I'm looking forward to seeing Iraq grow. 5-20-2025 Militia Man Article Quote: "There would be an announcement of economic initiatives that would have a development impact on all countries..." If you change the value of your currency and you start swapping currencies with others, I think it's going to have an impact. When they have the ability to adjust the value of their currency, they're going to have all these countries that will be impacted, on the same page and at the same time. I believe the summit set that stage because of their approval. 5-20-2025 Frank26 IMO all the groundwork...fundamentals, everything that is needed in order to bring forth the new exchange rate is here. It's established. It's been established. The new exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar is being protected by the Gazette Article 12-2c. 5-20-2025 MarkZ There are some interesting articles out of Iraq...One of the articles says they are outlawing militias. Parliament is working on the Popular mobilization law which folds the militias that fought against Isis into and under control of the Iraqi military. I was told this was a sticking point with the Trump Administration and also with the Chinese elders to make sure Iraq was secure before they pull the trigger to change the rates. I was told...This is one of the last security issues that was needed…Seems like everything we needed is finally coming into fruition. 5-20-2025 Mnt Goat I have been told years ago and this still holds true today that when the CBI is ready to conduct the Project to Delete the Zeros in-country, we will not have to guess or spread rumors about it. It will come out in the news...as all Iraqi citizens must know about this event and will know. It will be common knowledge. There is no hiding it. For us investors this is our que to know that of what comes next, the reinstatement.

They feel it's safer to keep their money in their homes...This fear is causing a serious problem for Iraq's economy. Out of 105 trillion Iraqi dinars in the county only 20 trillion are actually being used in the market...This means a lot of money is just sitting and doing nothing to help Iraq grow. This is not counting the IQD banknotes in the United States and other counties. One solution that eliminates all of the Central Bank of Iraq's problems is to create an entirely new currency. They would give people a window of time to exchange the old banknotes for the new currency. This solution would take care of the hoarding of cash and the billions in IQD banknotes in other counties. We must be prepared for this possibly scenario. 5-17-2025 Fnu Lnu Article quote "Recent figures reveal that only 20 trillion Iraqi dinars are in actual market circulation out of a staggering 105 trillion dinars in total monetary volume—a sign that Iraqis are overwhelmingly choosing to hoard their savings at home rather than invest or deposit them."

Having the privilege of holding the Arab Summit in Iraq alone shows prestige and honors from the Arab community. This climax is in part from all the reforms necessary to satisfy their plan laid out in the White Paper implementing the Pillars of Financial Reform. All this investment money pouring into the U.S. and Iraq from the U.S. is nothing but amazing.

Iraq told us they have $16 trillion worth of rare earth and that doesn't even include the taxes and tariffs at the borders...The list goes on an on. To think there's not going to be an adjustment so Iraq can enter and be integrated into the International financial system is flat-out silly. But there's still a lot of people that believe that. That's ok, it's not meant for everybody. 5-11-2025 Frank26 Article: "The Central Bank's trilogy curbs the parallel market. The dollar drops to a historic low for the first time since 2022." That is monstrous. It's powerful. It's what we've been looking for, the closing of the gap between the black market and the official rate. This is what we seek. This is what we have. Why do you think Trump is going?

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... So, take everything with a grain of salt ... RON 5-9-2025 Samson Article: "As Trump's visit to the region approaches, Iraq is expected to play a role in the Arab Summit in Baghdad." 5-9-2025 Pimpy Article: "Iraqi politician proposes to the Sudanese to invite Trump to attend the Baghdad summit" You're not going to get Trump there but you could definitely get a representative there. 5-9-2025 Frank26 Some serious negotiations have occurred with Iran. If that's the case, wow, we have security and stability. If you have security and stability in the Middle East because there's no more problems with Iran then there's no reason why not to raise the value of the currency of Iraq. It's not that complicated. 5-9-2025 Clare Article: "The Central Bank's trilogy curbs the parallel market. The dollar drops to a historic low for the first time since 2022." Quote: "The Iraqi dinar has seen a significant improvement in its value against the US dollar in Iraqi markets over the past few weeks, with the hard currency declining for the first time since 2022, reaching 141,000 per $100... Saleh said that the Central Bank of Iraq has succeeded in meeting the dollar needs of major traders by strengthening national banks' reserves with their foreign correspondents...and by beginning to use alternative currencies such as the Emirati dirham, the euro, and the Chinese yuan in banking operations...This approach has contributed to accelerating remittances and reducing reliance on the parallel market." 5-9-2025 Fnu Lnu Article: "The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) has announced that pilgrims can purchase dollars through designated banks and companies in Baghdad and other provinces." Quote: "The process involves exchanging Iraqi dinars for US dollars at the branches of participating banks and companies." Well, so much for de-dollarization. Iraq has published an official list of banks and exchange companies who will accept Dinars to buy dollars USD. This interoperability does not hint at an imminent RV/RI but does move the ball downfield quite a bit and shows us that Dinar-IQD and Dollars-USD will cohabitate for the foreseeable future... 5-9-2025 Militia Man The parallel market is about to lose its existence...The illegal market is about to run its course. That's 100% my view. The expectation of it getting eradicated completely, non-existent, I think that's happening in a very short period of time and I think it can happen even faster if they change their exchange rate. 5-9-2025 Samson Article: "The Central Bank's trilogy curbs the parallel market. The dollar drops to a historic low for the first time since 2022." Quote: "The Iraqi dinar has seen a significant improvement in its value against the US dollar in Iraqi markets over the past few weeks" 5-9-2025 Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: TV is showing a significant decline in the dollar in the parallel market again. The parallel market is now down to 1427. Whoa! Sammy says to expect probably soon, that rate will be 1390 and close enough to close that [gab between official rate] completely out. FRANK: Wow! That's fantastic news gentlemen. That's closer than we estimated for this coming week. That gap as it gets smaller and smaller, sooner or later we will have our new exchange rate because when it closes to a point where it will be able to at least come out at one to one then that's what we're looking for. 5-9-2025 Mnt Goat ...good news...Article: “THE DINAR IS RECOVERING. THE DOLLAR’S VALUE IN IRAQ HAS FALLEN DUE TO LOCAL MEASURES.” ...Exchange offices and the local stock exchange in most Iraqi governorates recorded a decline in the dollar exchange rate against the Iraqi dinar on Tuesday, part of a slight and gradual decline that has been ongoing for days. This decline has been going on for weeks not days.

That's based on your needs. Personally I was going to exchange 10% and hold on to 90% and watch it go up in the float. But I've changed my mind...It seems to me if I did the opposite, if I exchange 90% and invested it properly, by the time I waited for it to go up in the float it'll already be where I started.

RON 5-8-2025 Militia Man Advisers from Sudani...those folks are the real source...They may not be giving you the whole picture...because the Central Bank of Iraq can't always tell you exactly what they're going to do. But they give you education...all the way through the process but the last thing they're ever going to do is tell you, 'We're going to revalue the currency tomorrow at 10:00 in the morning or anything like that. They're just not. 5-8-2025 Sandy Ingram Things keep popping off from behind the curtains in Iraq. This is major breaking news, more than any other news we have received recently. This news suggests that the US is pushing Iraq to implement certain financial standards or else...Iraq is taking desperate steps to meet its financial obligations using escrow funds from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to pay the salaries of its private sector workers. These funds...were originally established after the 2003 invasion to protect Iraq's income from foreign claims and lawsuits...The use of these protected funds signals how critical Iraq's economic situation has become and how deeply it depends on cooperation with U.S. financial authorities. 5-8-2025 Walkingstick [Iraqi banking friend Aki update] WALKINGSTICK: Where are the lower notes? AKI: They're at the CBI. You know that. Walkingstick: He suggested they're also in the ATM machines. 5-8-2025 Frank26 Article: "An Iraqi politician suggested to Al-Sudani that he invite Trump to the Baghdad summit." Quote: "President Trump's visit to the Middle East presents valuable opportunities for the Sudanese government to capitalize on by affirming its policy of distancing itself from regional axes and Iranian dependence." He's coming IMO! 5-8-2025 Clare Article: "An Iraqi politician suggested to Al-Sudani that he invite Trump to the Baghdad summit." Quote: "Iraqi politician Mithal al-Alusi suggested on Wednesday to Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani that he invite US President Donald Trump to attend the Arab Summit scheduled to be held in the capital, Baghdad, in the coming days." 5-8-2025 Fnu Lnu [Response to 5-7-2025 Boots-On-The-Ground Maxis post] When I say my "SOURCES" are directly from the IMF, WB, BIS, etc...I mean that I gather my info from their own publications and press releases as well as aggregators in Iraq...My mission is truth as best as I can ascertain it so I go to the horses mouth... 5-8-2025 Militia Man Article: "The dollar continues to fall. Is the market close to the official price?" When they talked about getting rid of the dollar auction, which they've done IMO, was going to put pressure on the parallel market because once the value of the dollar is less than the dinar that is going to go away...They're trying to get the parallel market to be in par with the official exchange rate, which is 1310/1320 buy/sell. [Note: A falling dollar vs the IQD is what dinar investors want to see.] 5-8-2025 Frank26 Article: "Trump teases 'very, very big announcement' ahead of Middle East trip, Carney says he's 'on edge of my seat'" This announcement may be related to the Iraqi dinar...Now he may go to Baghdad. This is seriously swelling up for a reason, a purpose. Let's see what it turns out to be. Let's see what his announcement is...It's either about Iran or Iraq. That's what's on his mind, to play fair with the American currency...It's either Iraq or Iran and you know something? ...I'll take either one! 5-8-2025 Mnt Goat When the new rate for the Iraq dinar is reinstated on FOREX it will happen to the entire world all at once no matter what time zone...There will be no insider trading. When FOREX opens it opens...There are no such “tiers” for exchanging nor “redemption” centers...We We will be conducting a simple currency exchange at the bank. Now for some 5-8-2025 MarkZ I am getting many reports from banks that they are learning to process Dinar, Dong and Indonisia Rupiah…Internal reports saying “Hey, we are going to be accepting these currencies”. they don’t tell us the rate…just that they are going to be accepting them. This is step number one in my book. They train them on these currencies so they are ready for the revaluation…imo…This is clear evidence we are moving towards completion.
