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 3-21-2025 Sandy Ingram If digital dinars are restricted to residents, those holding physical IQD outside Iraq may need to cash out sooner rather than later. However, if Iraq opens access to digital accounts it could provide a modernized way for foreigners to hold and trade IQD but only through officially sanctioned channels. 3-21-2025 Clare Article: "New shipping line: Umm Qasr receives first mega-ship from South Korea" Quote: "The first giant container ship of the South Korean company HMM arrived at Umm Qasr Ports, marking the beginning of a new era of trade cooperation between Iraq and South Korea."

RON 3-21-2025 Militia Man How are you going to be able to do major import transactions at 1310? You're probably not going to be able to do that. They're going to use the digital dinar. 3-21-2025 Frank26 Article: "To reduce speculation, a Sudanese advisor reveals a new monetary strategy." Oh my goodness they're telling them everything. THE MONETARY REFORM EDUCATION REMOVES ALL DOUBT THAT THE IQD IS GOING INTERNATIONAL! 3-21-2025 Sandy Ingram Iraq's central bank is gearing up to introduce a digital dinar, marking a significant shift towards digital currency management...The digital dinar will function as an official electronic currency issued by the CBI, holding the same value as physical cash but traded exclusively through digital wallets and authorized platforms. This move will distance Iraq from US control over the central bank of Iraq. 3-21-2025 Clare Article: "Iraq attempts to encourage Amazon to build facilities in Iraq" Quote: "The Iraqi official explained that the launch of an e-commerce platform in Iraq has become imminent." 3-21-2025 Militia Man The dollar is going to go away because the IMF requires that to be a part of Article VIII compliance. Iraq is not going to be able to do that at 1310. I think they're going to have to have a Real Effective Exchange Rate based off real fundamentals. Some of the largest auditing firms in the world have been working on this project with Iraq for years. Ceasing multi currency practices is quite evident what they're talking about. 3-21-2025 Frank26 You should be proud of yourselves. You invested in the Iraqi dinar. Not proud of yourselves that you're going to make a profit, you should be proud of yourselves because whether you know it or not you helped Iraqi citizens. Look, you bought a "stock" called the Iraqi 3-zero note for a "dividend" called the Real Effective Exchange Rate from a "company" called Iraq. Every time you did that you gave them purchasing power because you bought it with the American dollar. You have kept Iraq and especially the citizens afloat.

RON 3-20-2025 Frank26 In the beginning, the exchange rate is looking for at least 1 to 1 with the American dollar, not to be matched with it but to be paired with it and possibly a basket of international currencies with value for each other. Then later on the Real Effective Exchange Rate will come in a float...As the whole world uses your currency it will climb in international value by trading it...using it...selling it, by crossing it from bank to bank, platform to platform. The dinar will grow internationally, then at that point the CBI will control this financial growth of your exchange rate by monitoring it and then capping it at a specific number that was tested and approved through the RV phase of your monetary reform. 3-20-2025 Militia Man We're going to see oil flow, we're going to see salaries get paid. If that happens, my assumption would be and we'll find out if that holds true, a new exchange rate will be needed...It can be a powerful time frame at any time. They say they can resume the oil within hours. I think we should take that seriously. I'm excited about it... 3-20-2025 MarkZ Article: “Parliamentary committee: Kurdistan region’s oil exports to start next week.” This is big. We have been waiting for this and the budget tables.

If so, where will it be held?" No, the physical paper will always remain outside the country. That was part of their agreement to sell it to build their own reserves. We talked about this several years ago. Saleh stated the physical dinar currency would go into central banks around the world. [Post 1 of 2] 3-20-2025 Kaperoni The digital transformation in Iraq is only for them. The reduction of physical dinar could take several years in Iraq. Keep in mind that notes that we hold such as 25,000 notes will always be their printed value. The exchange rate to US dollars should gradually increase based on Iraq's economic growth (economic renaissance) and success over time and the development of their banking system. [Post 2 of 2] 3-20-2025 Frank26 More than 70% of the 3-zero notes have been collected. My friends (firefly in Iraq) they don't have 3- zero notes to even use.

The central bank emphasized that despite the decline it still possesses large net foreign reserves relative to the money supply which is relatively secure according to international financial standards." They're saying they've got it covered and what they're doing is using what they call 'sterilization'. [Post 1 of 2] 3-20-2025 Militia Man Research Quote: "Enhanced currency sterilization refers to...intervening in the foreign market and exchange markets to influence the value of its currency. It takes steps to offset the impact in the domestic money supply...sterilizing the interventions effect on the monetary base...Central banks often intervene in the foreign exchange market to manage their currency value, either to prevent appreciation or depreciation...If a central bank buys foreign currency, it releases its own currency into the domestic market, increasing the money supply." That's not a good thing. That's not what they're doing. Conversely, Quote: "Selling foreign currencies reduce the money supply." That very well could be what they're doing. We'll see. [Post 2 of 2] 3-20-2025 Frank26 I very strongly believe as the cards are being dealt out, we investors of the Iraqi dinar are holding a trump card...Security and stability is the only thing that we need. Do we need to calculate the exchange rate? No. The RV phase took care of that over a dozen years ago. Do we need to get the banks up to modern technology, up to par with the rest of the international world? No, the US Treasury is on the ninth floor, the whole freaking floor! ...Do you think that's for 1310? No, I don't Frank. Well good for you then because you hold a trump card don't you? Yes you do.

The passing of the Oil and Gas law... I firmly believe that it will be convergence of these six (6) activities above that will get us the reinstatement back to FOREX.

Security and stability has a trump card and his name is President Donald Trump. But the security and stability is because Iran is no longer in control of Iraq like they used to be. Security and stability is what's going to bring in the new exchange rate. 3-20-2025 MarkZ Article: “Parliamentary Finance committee: Budget tables will not include job grades” I am told to expect the budget table to arrive in parliament most likely on Sunday.

Were they teasing the citizens of Iraq? ...Are they showing them something that is impossible to receive? Well it is at 1310, you agree don't you? The whole world agrees, logic agrees, this budget is not for 1310... 3-18-2025 Clare Article: “Iraq: Top 5 Arab economy in 2024" Quote: "Five Arab countries, including Iraq, accounted for 72% of the region’s GDP, which surpassed $3.6 trillion in 2024, according to a new report from the Arab Investment & Export Credit Guarantee Corporation ("Dhaman") released on Sunday." 3-18-2025 Samson Article: "Rafidain Bank announces the collection of 6 trillion dinars electronically within one year." 3-18-2025 Sandy Ingram The Central Bank Governor concluded meetings with the IMF in Amman...to discuss economic progress and future growth.

Discussions focused on reducing oil dependence, managing debt, modernizing banking to attract foreign investment and increasing the use of the Iraqi dinar. 3-18-2025 Frank26 Iran stops the new exchange rate from coming out. It's so obvious. It's being protected, the exchange rate, from Iranian influence inside of Iraq's parliament. Trump is going to stop an Iran Shadow Fleet in order for security and stability to increase inside of Iraq. 3-18-2025 Militia Man Article: "The pipeline is ready to transport any quantity specified by the Federal Ministry of Oil." The pipeline is ready. They're affirming it. They're talking about within hours. Quote: "The Iraq-Turkish pipeline was ready to transport oil from the Kirkuk fields more than a year ago...it's proved 100% readiness...The North Company says it has the ability to resume exports within hours if it receives notification from Baghdad." That really rings true to what we've been saying...It can happen any time. Why haven't they done it at 1310 the last year? Why wait 2 years? Why are they talking about Article 12 2 section C? Because it's directly related to, I believe, that valuation of oil. 3-18-2025 Fnu Lnu Article: "Iraq's delegation concluded its meetings with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in Amman, with participants including Minister of Finance Taif Sami and the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI). Discussions focused on Iraq's economic performance and sustainable growth prospects, with the IMF acknowledging the progress made. Key discussions included: Non-oil GDP growth of 5% in 2024...Reduced dependence on oil revenues, improving economic diversification and stability...Increased use of the Iraqi dinar in major transactions to strengthen the national currency.

Quote: "The Central Bank of Iraq is preparing to launch the digital dinar...It is similar in value to the traditional dinar, but is traded electronically via digital wallets or approved financial applications. It facilitates instant money transfers within the country or across borders, reduces the logistical burden of issuing paper or metal currency, and enables broader segments of society to access digital financial services." [Post 1 of 2] 3-18-2025 Clare "Regarding the digital dinar's relationship to exchange rates, Al-Sudani's advisor explained that the official exchange rate will be the prevailing and sole rate, the digital exchange rate adopted by monetary policy. The parallel market will disappear in its current form, as it is difficult to invent a secondary digital market whose operations operate outside the control of the digital monetary authority...He pointed out that the digital dinar will be fully backed by the central bank and have a relatively stable value, similar to paper currency. However, it will be traded electronically only through bank accounts and wallets, contributing to reducing the use of paper money, achieving financial inclusion, and reducing reliance on the dollar in daily transactions."

Why you asking me? FRANK: I didn't know it was already flowing or tested flowing or is about to flow in a few hours or can flow in a few hours. Dear God because if the oil flows, the exchange rate flows IMO. FIREFLY: My opinion is all related to the mechanism in this Article 12-2c. 12-2c will give us the new value...They are saying within hours oil can start...The budget table are coming. All is pointing to a Real Effective Exchange Rate IMO. FRANK: I agree Article 12-c holds the key, which is the new exchange rate. 3-18-2025 MarkZ [via PDK] Article: Here is a bank story…that’s not a bank story. “My son is in Blue Ridge, GA hiking and fishing this weekend. They got a hotel because of the horrible weather coming through last weekend. While they were packing up to leave they got to talking with a couple. The man is a banker in Atlanta. My son said my dad follows the Iraqi dinar…do you think it will ever be worth something or is my dad crazy? ..and to make a long story short…the banker said “Your dad is not crazy. He is very smart and it is definitely a good investment. I didn’t think much about it until 5 months ago….but your dad is very smart.“

The the COM is where and when that rate will show up...When it goes to the COM that's when to get excited because soon they will vote and the COM will do it quickly...That's what we need, Council of Minister first...then that rate will show...Parliament is just a formality. FRANK: Sudani sends the budget tables to the COM? Are you kidding me? I didn't know he was going to do that. He's not going to send it to parliament? Oh my goodness that's like Sudani telling parliament to pick a finger and you might as well pick the middle finger because he's not going to share anything with them until the very last second. 3-15-2025 Samson Article: "Iraqi forces kill 'deputy caliph,' one of the world's most dangerous terrorists." 3-15-2025 Kaperoni February Article: "Finance Minister at IMF meeting: We expect non-oil revenues to increase".

They're going to have to give that information to the Council of Ministers prior to ever getting to parliament. That's just the way it works. It's not their business until it's after the fact that it's exposed and the COM allows them to read it and see it. By that time Alaq has probably made his move. 3-14-2025 MarkZ Article: “The IMF discusses Strengthening the Iraqi dinar” I like this. Strengthening the Iraq Dinar means making it more valuable. And the IMF is openly talking about increasing the value of the dinar. 3-14-2025 Frank26 What's the reason why we don't have the new exchange rate for the new currency Iraq to give purchasing power to the Iraqi citizens? What's the reason why? Why don't we have it? Is it because the weather is too hot? Is it because we have an alignment of stars? Is it because the leadership in Iraq, Sudani, he's just a bad man?

The light is overcoming the darkness every day. 3-13-2025 MarkZ In Iraq, Article: “Parliament awaits the arrival of the 2025 budget” They still expect it mid-month…or by the end of the month. They are being vague on purpose. I believe they are hiding a number in it. In this budget they state they are going to “support the local currency” and the development road projects are also a part of it.

Lawmakers continued their boycott refusing to attend sessions as long as the popular mobilization forces services and retirement law remained off the agenda. Behind the scenes the Coordination Framework had been leading the boycott. This has been going on since the start of 2025. Without enough members present to reach a quorum the country's legislative process has stopped. The mounting frustrations is enabling a new debate, should Iraq hold early elections?

Some of you have told me, as an example, I have 2 million dinars. I'm going to cash out a million. I'm going to hold on to the other million because I'm going to watch it float and grow.

The IQD remains stable. 3-11-2025 Jeff As of March they are removing the dollar from the country, at least that's what their actions are suggesting...

It is an inflated inflation. The inflation was created by how many notes they printed. They are producing more oil when it was worth $2 to $3 a pop. According to General Hugh Tant at one time it was legitimately worth $3. Look at their oil production then, their economy then, the amount of notes they had. They have more customers, producing more oil. All those boxes check off. So what is keeping the value of the dinar down? It is the amount of notes that are out in circulation. That's it. That's all it is. Iraq has the opportunity call in those notes and add value to its currency. 3-10-2025 Walkingstick [Reference Walkingstick's Aki & East update from 3-9-2025] Aki says...due to what the GOI and CBI are instructing us, I am moving my family to the city where the bank is where me and my boss work. The reason why is due to the fact that my boss told me you're going to be very busy very soon. [Aki] is bringing his family from the state that he lives in, he's bringing them down south [of that state] to be closer to this bank that he's in charge of. Aki must have a very good idea of this true time frame because he's moving his family to the bank's location. This target date has to be IMO within arms reach. 3-10-2025 Frank26 It was last month that Sudani said right around the middle of February that at the end of February we will bring the budget tables. Then towards the end of last month he says I'm going to do it at the beginning of March...On the 3rd of March he comes out and he says I'm going to do this at the middle of March...Here we are headed towards the middle of March in about another week and he just made an announcement...he says I'm going to expose the budget tables at the end of March...We went from the end of February to the beginning of March, to the middle of March...What is April 1st?

Here we see the meetings I reported some days ago are bearing fruit. We should all realize that Iraq has spent many billions of dollars to update their banking system with state of the art features. Understand, A suppressed currency is not tradable internationally due to lack of faith and trust. Such massive ongoing improvements are aimed at a superior currency that will soon debut on the world stage. Unfortunately, we cannot have a definitive timing. It's coming so just sit tight. 3-10-2025 Clare Article: "Government Advisor: 2025 Budget Will Reach Parliament Before End of Ramadan" Quote: "Saleh indicated that the budget schedules are expected to reach Parliament before the end of Ramadan, which falls at the end of March." 3-10-2025 Jeff What they've told us is that going into 2025 they were going to end the currency auctions. We know that much. They did say they transitioned to that new method of transferring foreign currencies abroad... allowing specific local banks within the country of Iraq to send the foreign currencies. But they never officially ended the currency auctions. We know the currency auctions have to end at least by the time the rate changes. We also know that from last November through the end of January the currency auctions went up from about $280 million to $300 million, then in January of this year went higher from $290 million to $300 million. Their actions of incrementing the currency auctions to higher amounts suggest we're getting getting very close to nearing the end of this.
