  1. 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 5-24-2025 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.

RON 5-23-2025 Clare Article: "US warning of Tehran's influence on Baghdad's relations with Erbil" Quote: "Secretary of State Marco Rubio's statement regarding the rise of Iranian influence in Iraq, which he considered 'a serious threat to American interests,' has raised concerns about the US turning its back on Iraq to deal with it according to a new relationship that does not rule out taking 'necessary measures' against the country. In testimony before the US House Foreign Affairs Committee on Wednesday, Rubio stated that Iran's influence in Iraq has clearly increased and has seeped into the joints of the government, posing a serious threat to American interests. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio affirmed in his testimony before the US House Foreign Affairs Committee that Iraq must respect the autonomous entity of the Kurdistan Region and must also commit to respecting American companies operating there." 5-23-2025 Pimpy What we want to see happen is Iraq to change their exchange rate but leave the zeros on the banknotes. That's what we want. That's how you make your money. If you're going to be rich that's how it's going to happen. All of a sudden, you wake up one day and for whatever reason Iraq has decided to change your exchange rate to $3.22 without removing the zeros. Boom! ...Get that money... because that's the only way you're going to make millions based on all the studying I've done of redenominations and revaluing throughout the histories. And Now - Some Nonsense..! 5-23-2025 MarkZ Comment: I hear banks are getting ready. Mark: I have heard that as well…and makes me feel good. Comment: I think it could go anytime now. Mark: That is what I hear.

RON 5-23-2025 Pimpy Community Comment: "You have always said a 25,000 dinar note is going to be a 25 dinar note. Not here. In country only." Pimpy: I never said 'it's only in country only'. Whenever a country changes its currency, it's worldwide. Whenever they're changing their exchange rate it's worldwide. This isn't just 'in country'/'out country'. That's bull ****. 5-23-2025 Nader From The Mid East Article: ...The vast 'leakage' of cash poses a serious challenge to the country's financial stability and long-term economic growth...Saleh...stated the hoarding of cash...has reached critical levels...91-92 trillion dinars are currently outside the banking system...driven by public distrust in financial institutions."

RON 5-23-2025 Mnt Goat Article: “46 IRAQI BUSINESS LEADERS PARTICIPATED IN THE INVESTMENT SUMMIT IN WASHINGTON.” ...The US Embassy in Baghdad said in a statement Quote: “A delegation of 46 business leaders from Iraq, including the Kurdistan Region, arrived in the United States to participate in the annual Select USA Investment Summit, which was held in the Washington, D.C., area from May 11 to 14.” So, does the US want to help move Iraq along? Has the U.S. under the Trump administration changed it’s foreign policy to one of strong leadership to help move the reforms ahead in Iraq? It certainly appears that way. The time of the reset is nearing. They must now move this along.
  5. 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 5-22-2025 Clare Article: "Iraq: Concluding Statement of the 2025 IMF Article IV Mission" Quote: "An International Monetary Fund (IMF)...met with the Iraqi authorities in Amman and Baghdad during May 4–13 to conduct the 2025 Article IV consultation...A highly uncertain global environment, falling oil prices, and acute financing pressures, are taking a toll on economic activity and exacerbating Iraq’s existing vulnerabilities, calling for urgent measures to preserve fiscal and external stability. [Post 1 of 2] 5-22-2025 Clare Article quote continued: "Building on recent progress, the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) should continue modernizing the banking system...The mission commended the CBI for the successful transition to the new trade finance system. Trade finance is now fully processed by commercial banks through their correspondent banking relationships. This has also supported the recent decline in the spread between the official and parallel market exchange rates. Nonetheless, further efforts are needed to further reduce the spread, including by imposing Iraqi dinar usage for car and real estate transactions, improving customs controls to curb smuggling, and simplifying FX access." [Post 2 of 2] 5-22-2025 Pimpy People say, I don't think this [$0.76] is where the rate is going to be. I agree. I don't think that's where the rate's going to be either. It might when we first start but I don't think it's going to stop there...$3.22, is that possible? Yeah that's possible. I don't deny that. But $3.22 is not going to be times this denomination [25,000]. It's going to be times this denomination [25]. They're going to have the $3.22 rate. I agree with you. But after they delete the zeros, not before...I'll take the $3.22 rate even if they take the zeros off. Me too Pimple..! At least that's almost 3 x my investment.

RON 5-22-2025 Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: 'My Account' [card] is going to help to retrieve the 3-zero notes. They've been talking about it a lot. The 3-zero notes are a big issue. It would not be an issue if it was staying at 1310. FRANK: That's a good way of putting it. You wouldn't be collecting 3-zero notes if you were staying at 1310. 5-22-2025 MarkZ They are hoarding it [dinar] for a couple of reasons. Lack of trust in the banking system and expectation of a higher value. 5-22-2025 Samson Article: "Kurdish party: Iraqis will benefit from oil revenues after the approval of the oil and gas law." 5-22-2025 Sandy Ingram Iraq is seeing a massive $87 billion surge in foreign investment. This signals soaring global confidence in Iraq's economy...Iraq's economic plans are ambitious, investing in the development road project, natural gas, petrochemicals, tourism and agriculture ...Foreign investments are key to increasing the value of the Iraqi dinar. Iraq is not just rising economically but diplomatically too. On a scale of 1 to 10 this is a solid 7 for good news.
  7. 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 5-21-2025 Fnu Lnu I believe they will make the shift into a value added currency however, I also feel this will come after the Digital transformation has been completed and all ancillary hardware and software has been installed and training completed, and global oil prices have increased. 5-21-2025 Clare Article quote: "Economic expert Safwan Qusay concluded his remarks by stating that the government is serious about generating revenue from all sectors as part of a future development plan, noting that financial reforms and Syria's exit from the black market have contributed to reducing pressure on the dollar, predicting that its price will continue to decline to 132,000 dinars per $100."

RON 5-20-2025 Frank26 Question: "Won't the black market get away when they raise the rate?" No! The black market will be annihilated. There won't be a need for the black market. The black market is there because they're trying to rip off the Iraqi citizens. Once you have an established exchange rate, no. 1310 is not established. It's a program rate. 5-20-2025 Fnu Lnu Article "The National Investment Commission (NIC) has announced that over 130 fully approved investment opportunities will be presented at the Iraq Investment Forum..." Events like this have become commonplace with the IBBC and NIC event scheduled for mid-June. These promoters bring the most prestigious corporations to the world. This Summer is going to be a hot one when it comes to International trade. It should be noted that these companies care not what the exchange rate for the Dinar might be. It is a simple calculation. 5-20-2025 Mnt Goat The TRUTH is the in-country RV and the Project to Delete the Zeros has not yet happened. The reinstatement back to FOREX has also not yet happened...If we look at all the VERY GOOD news today we can see the writing is on the wall. We are getting very near to this event. 5-20-2025 Pimpy Delete the zeros question: "If they increase the value compared to the dollar, say the exchange rate goes from 1 dinar worth $3.00 then my 25,000 dinar now 25 would exchange for $75?" Once they delete the zeros, yes, your 25,000 now become 25 and if it's an exchange rate of 3 to 1... 3 x 25, your 25 dinar would now be worth $75. That's correct.

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.

This is goodness for the Iraqi dinar. When the economy is strong the currency usually gets stronger too. This means people in Iraq can buy more with their money. It also makes Iraq more attractive to foreign investors. As investors we are looking for more foreign investments and safety for these investors. We are also looking forward to a time when foreign countries need billions more IQD to ship goods from the Gulf to Europe. These are factors that will drive the value of the IQD up. 5-19-2025 Frank26 Question: "Will each day after the RI see the rate go up?" Wouldn't that be great if it did! In the beginning it's going to have an accordion affect. That 'accordion time' is going to compress time. There will be a lot of...short increases along the way. You'll watch it. You'll follow it. You'll find the rate that you want and you'll exchange. 5-19-2025 Fnu Lnu Article: "President Abdul Latif Jamal Rashid and Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI), Ali Al-Alaq, met at Baghdad Palace to discuss economic reforms aimed at strengthening Iraq's financial sector and...emphasized the importance of modernizing the banking system." If Iraq were secure and stable, why would they be having these meetings? If the banking sector were up to speed and ready to rock, why are they discussing modernizing the banking systems? Short answer, they wouldn't! The issues surrounding Iraq aren't all that complicated...trust is running at an all time low. 5-19-2025 MarkZ this weekend was the Baghdad summit and they have made lots of deals. Someone from Nato is meeting with Sudani and they are looking at Iraq like they are truly international. They just need the last of the restrictions removes so they have a fully international currency. 5-19-2025 Pimpy You got to understand when you're dealing with exchange rate, it's global. Because people are making trade with them. There's no 'in country' rate, 'out of country' rate. It's the same, period. Once they make that change that's what happens.

Yeah...Didn't you [Chase Bank] tell me that it's a scam? The currency is a scam? The monetary reform, everything's a scam? Why are you scamming yourself? Why are you doing this? Because it's no secret anymore. We don't need to pretend anymore. 5-18-2025 Pimpy As you can see over in Syria the people celebrated throughout the night. Trump lifted all sanction off Syria. He's trying to bring peace to the Middle East...He seems to be doing not only a great job but a very supportive job...Trump is...promising the region prosperity if they agree. He's got these countries...that support Iran are telling Iran, 'You need to get your **** together dude. We want prosperity. We're tired of all the fighting. We want peace in the Middle East.' It looks like Trump is going to get his way...If you can avoid conflict, you understand how much prosperity would be there? Countries would grow economically. These people would have stronger currencies, more economic growth...And this includes Iraq. 5-18-2025 Militia Man ...The summit took place yesterday. They talked about approvals...integration...a lot of different buzz words that show Iraq is ready for investment for the private sector. For that to happen we believe there's going to be an interconnectivity to the global financial system. They haven't done that at 1310. But they are expected to have a real effective exchange rate at some point in time. 5-18-2025 Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Television says Syrian debts to the World Bank which is about $15.5 million was just paid off by Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Your president is gone but the shadow that he's casted over the Middle East is causing peace all over the place. 5-18-2025 Mnt Goat ...one huge obstacle is still Iran and this issue must be resolved.

If they are going to go international with their currency there will be vulnerability. They are no longer isolated and under the sanctioned post-war process so of course they are going to be more “vulnerable to global economic shocks”. I also believe this is setting the stage for the IQD for a future float, which comes only with the new basket of currency for a new peg.

They have a recovered monetary reform... monetary policy... investment opportunity... recovered their banks... infrastructure... They have recovered 1310 and in doing so IMO have a recovered exchange rate. This is part of the recovery to say to the world and Iraqi citizens that the recovery of their monetary policy was successful. 5-19-2025 Militia Man Article: "The Baghdad summit took place regularly and Iraq regained its leading role" I like that title because it's leading role. It's regained its place in the regional arena. That's good...Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Egypt, every single one of those are trading partners.

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." This is NOT stability nor is it security...There is a liquidity shortage afoot and though a digital Dinar along with a stable coin could greatly improve this situation, those are not a done deal yet either...There will be no currency revaluation for the current, foreseeable, future. Relax, it's coming soon but that means "Iraqi Soon" not "American soon". 5-17-2025 Militia Man If you're going to buy 160 jets...do all these different things for military or for businesses, invest in AI and all these different sorts of things, if your currency goes up and you're going to [buy] it in dollar terms, it costs them less Real, less Jordanian dinar or less Iraqi dinar to pay off all that stuff. 5-17-2025 Frank26 FIREFLY: The television is saying that this summit that is occurring in Baghdad will attract over $30 billion in investments for Iraq. What's that going to do to our new exchange rate. We have Husani on TV also Channel One that this summit shows the whole world that Iraq is now safe and stable and secure to all the world. Just having this in Iraq is a victory. FRANK: That's the whole ball of wax. Give them security and stability and you've got the new exchange rate.

So a 25,000 dinar now becomes a 25 dinar and it will look different than the bank notes that are currently out there. That's what a redenomination is. 5-17-2025 Mnt Goat Perhaps the best word to describe the news for today is “climax”. 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. Remember I always asked the question as to when will the U.S. finally step up and realize the investment potential in Iraq. Well…now is the time under President Trump.

If the Federal Reserve implements interest rate cuts and global demand for Vietnamese exports strengthens, the dong may experience upward pressure. On the other hand the continued strength of the United States dollar and ongoing trade challenges could limit the dong's appreciation in the near term. 5-16-2025 Fnu Lnu [Response to Maxis 5-15-2025 post] Article "The Chairman of Iraq's National Investment Commission (NIC), Dr. Haider Mohammed Makiyya, announced the restart of 503 investment projects across the country, as part of a national plan to stimulate the economy."

It's actually a brilliant way of doing things. That's why everybody is flocking in [to Iraq].

My guess is it will be around 1166ish or better. They might go straight to 1 dinar = $1 dollar even. Was 1166 not the “official” rate of the Dr Shabibi era when in 2012 he announced the Project to Delete the Zeros was targeted for the fall of that year? I think Ali Alaq has a better plan going, better because he can, while in Dr Shabibi era Iraq was still under sanctions. 5-16-2025 MarkZ Article: “Why is the Arab summit in Baghdad distinct from its predecessors?” I find these articles interesting.

Not going to happen...If they delete the zeros your 1,000 dinar is going to become 1 dinar. Your 25,000 dinar is going to become 25 dinar. They're going to have to make new bank notes.

They're around 1400 something...and they rip them off because it's [the official rate] is 1310. The difference is the profiteering, the ripoff to the Iraqi citizens.

They are stuck in a bad spot and don’t know how to get out of it. They are going to be forced to revalue or go broke. Everything is waiting on the revaluation of their currency...

They're not going to be able to build industrial refineries and stuff like that at 1310. They've never done it before why are they going to do it today? They're not. It'd be just like suicide. Think about it, if you have a real effective exchange rate and the dinar is much stronger than the dollar it becomes far cheaper to build this out.
