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 9-1-2025 MarkZ We have a bit more news than I was expecting today - out of Iraq… being our holiday and all. But most expectations are for tomorrow by most of my contacts. No one knows when notifications are coming, but there is a tremendous amount of anticipation for September 2nd. 9-1-2025 Fnu Lnu Perplexity AI report: "The Iraqi Dinar (IQD) currently operates under a fixed exchange rate system, with its value set and controlled by the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI)... the currency does not freely float on global forex markets. There is no official indication that Iraq plans to switch to a floating rate in the immediate future." There is a continuing debate about the IQD at a fixed rate or a float. My personal belief is that a fixed rate is necessary at the beginning of the Iraqi renaissance because many things need to be controlled.

Every day there's been something about the progress of the Monetary reform. 8-18-2025 MarkZ I had some lovely conversations today with Iraqi contacts. They are expecting and hoping for a big announcement on Tuesday on the HCL gas laws. They are being told to expect a major announcement on that front. That there was a major breakthrough. I don’t know if it means a full HCL agreement but they are looking for some kind of announcement tomorrow. 8-18-2025 Clare Article: “Al-Alaq details Iraq's banking reform plan" Quote: "Central Bank Governor Ali Al-Alaq clarified the details of the banking reform plan on Monday...After a thorough study of the plan and in agreement with international bodies and correspondent banks, we believe that banks that can adhere to these standards will have their dollar transactions lifted and will establish normal relationships with foreign correspondent banks." 8-18-2025 Militia Man Article: "Rafidain Bank confirms: Our agreement with K2 Integrity puts Iraq on the map of the global financial system." The focus on a qualitative leap is likely due to the efforts taken by Iraq regarding compliance, anti-money laundering (AML), counter-terrorism financing (CML), etc. Iraq will not be isolated banking wise from the international system any longer. K2s partnership supports that Iraq is going to make a change to its currency...Completion looks to be set for show time.

RON 8-6-2025 Mnt Goat What we have is all still very good news and showing Iraq is still moving in the right direction. Iraq is still aggressively fighting that uphill battle to regain its full sovereignty and financial independence. However, As long as Iraq is on the petro-dollar and it is the sole peg for the dinar, this will continue. In recent weeks the CBI has come out with so much news about finally being able to control the dollar in Iraq by controlling the parallel market. Why is this so important? [Post 1 of 2] 8-6-2025 Mnt Goat We know that the CBI has told us there is going to be one more “official” rate change after the 1320 then conduct the Project to Delete the Zeros once this control of the parallel market is accomplished. My contact in the CBI then told me they thought that maybe the parallel market could reach the official rate by the end of last week. Did it? We still wait for the news to come. The Project to Delete the Zeros is a focal point for the rest of the process going forward to make it to the reinstatement of the dinar back to FOREX, with a rate was as investors want. [Post 2 of 2]

They've known about it for thousands of years.

But if you forget about the concept of a float and come out at a fixed rate...at $3.22...it would be tangible to the other currencies in the Middle East.

You cannot negotiate the exchange rate. The only people that have access to negotiating on an exchange rate...are banks. You're not a bank. You're not a banker. You can't go in there and negotiate a better exchange rate. That's false. 7-12-2025 MarkZ Most of my contacts think this is our last weekend. I pray it is. Overwhelming bond folks think they get their money over the weekend. I assume with the Fednow system down they will have access on Monday. We are hoping and praying this is true. Question: Why is Fednow down? Mark: Because of a whole new update. Bank wires are down, many government sites are down. Many banks doing system upgrades. Even the IRS is getting a system upgrade. Between the 11th and 14th of July many financial things are getting upgrades. We are hopeful that things are about to have a new value.

RON 6-20-2025 Mnt Goat In the past my CBI contact also told me the RV process in order to go forward hinged on this matter of Iran depended on either making a peaceful proposal or face a major conflict. I was told if attack and bombing scenario did play out, it would only delay the RV process going forward. I was also told at that time you would have to be “crazy” if you thought it could even happen with this all going on. So, once again the Iranian leader Khamenei chose the path of evil and destruction. Israel and the U.S. forces are now just carrying out that destined choice. [Post 1 of 2] 6-20-2025 Mnt Goat This is not to say we wouldn’t be close to the RV, only closer now as this Iranian scenario had to happen first. You must understand this is a “good thing” and not a negative event in the larger scheme of things. I know, I know it is hard to see how this could possibly be good for the RV, but at the end you will understand. It will all come together and you will see it. [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 6-5-2025 Pimpy Another one I heard is they cannot become a member of The World Trade Organization unless they change their rate. That's false. The World Trade Organization cannot tell another country what type of exchange rate to have. Every country is under their own sovereignty. Their central banks decide the exchange rate where it's going to be free flowing or fixed. If it's fixed they determine the rate but if it's free flowing the market determines the rate of their currency. So no Iraq does not have to change their exchange rate because the World Trade Organization thinks it's too low. That's false. Vietnam is a member of the World Trade Organization and their currency is way cheaper than the Iraqi dinar.

Cover for the RV?] Mark: Yes we are coming up on an extended banking holiday in Iraq. My sources are seeing older lower denominations from the Saadam Hussein era in circulation. I was also told by one Iraqi whose spouse works in the banking industry that they are circulating a “cut-sheet” showing what the new lower denominations are going to look like in Iraq. That is a very good sign. (RUMOR - unverified content)

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.

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.

Vietnam's reliance on exports means its currency value is tied to global trade dynamics, including demand from the U.S. and Europe. 1-31-2025 MarkZ Question: When they exchanged currencies in the past-How was it given to you? Mark: Right into your bank accounts. …Also in the past-before electronics…if it were a smaller amount…they just handed you cash. 1-31-2025 Frank26 Article 12-2 c not being voted on or passed yet by parliament that's because IMO Article 12-2 C and the new exchange rate are married and Alaq is performing the ceremony right now... And now, a bit of Bruce's Bull Sh*t 1-31-2025 Bruce [RUMOR] ...President Trump wanted to make sure that Iraq was ready to go and to bring out their new rate, and that rate would theoretically be in their new budget, which is being passed, probably by the weekend...so it could end up going in to the printed version of the Gazette and the virtual version of the Gazette On Saturday or Sunday...we believe that it could come out to where things could start happening around noon on Saturday.

RON Frank26 Question: "What do you think Iraq's time to allow international to exchange our notes? That's their prerogative. Normally when something like this happens the IMF works with that central bank of that country and they figure out a time frame. It can be three months or six months. It can be a year. The Untied Sates of America never cancelled our 3 zero notes. America never stopped allowing 3 zero notes to be exchanged but I got a feeling Iraq will, and they should. Militia Man Article: "Al-Nusairi: Explains the new mechanism for external transfers after the platform is closed" We have been following this and we have been spot on...They finally have done what was expected. This is to get the Central Bank back to normalcy with international standards. That it a fact. A very good thing to have had correct all along [in our] study of the Iraqi Dinar... Pimpy We know that al-Sudani is going to be talking to Trump real quick here. Last time [Trump was in office] they didn't make any changes and what ended up happening was they had to devalue the dinar before the country went bankrupt. So this time around they might jump ahead of this and devalue the dinar ahead of time so that the impact is not that hard against the Iraqi people and against Iraq if crude oil prices go down. Sandy Ingram Two of Iraq's most ambitious infrastructure projects, the central bank tower in Baghdad and the Grand al-Faw Port in Basra have been recognized as some of the most significant mega projects in the world for 2025. The projects ranked 11th and 10th by the renowned British platform the B1M. These achievements reflect not only Iraq's commitment to modernization but also it's ambition to reclaim its place on the global stage as a hub for economic and cultural progress. Samson Article: "British platform includes the Central Bank Tower and Al-Faw Port in the list of giant projects in the world for the year 2025" Jeff Iraq's '25 budget still in the works with the government expected to send the budget tables to the council representatives in early February. The rate needs to change before that guys. That's why I've been telling you you're in red-hot January. January is a critical month to our investment. And now, for one of MarkZ's outrageous rumors: MarkZ [Rumor] I have talked to a couple Iraqi sources and they still believe this is it. They have contractors that they are in contact with that are suddenly being called in. I have one who will not tell me what the re-negotiated rate is on their contracts. One of them mentioned $3.91, but I do not know for certain if that is really it. Its from a contact I don’t know really well.

RON MarkZ Question: if Iraq is increasing her foreign reserves through correspondent banks, isn't that international trade? Mark: Yes and that is why some are getting excited. Kaperoni Question: "In reading these articles, I find they contradict each other. I remember a few months ago that only 13 banks were not in compliance with CBI standards. Today, I read 32 banks have limited functions. Is this difference between gov banks and private banks, or am I still in the weeds trying to understand foreign banking?" Some of the recent articles are opinion articles. Sandy Ingram In the 3rd quarter of 2024 the Central Bank of Iraq reported steady growth in both bank deposits and cash credit across state and private banks. Article "Iraq's bank deposits reach $97.32 billion in 2024's third quarter" These figures highlight a positive trend in Iraq's banking sector with increased confidence in both savings and lending activities across the country. Pimpy The last time Trump was in office, we became the #1 exporter of energy which affected oil prices and affected Iraq. With Trump coming into office, we're going to quickly see what kind of impact he has on Iraq and the oil market...All we can do is sit back and watch. If Iraq thinks it's going to go in the same direction as it did last time and the value of oil per barrel goes down, which could hurt them big time. PompeyPeter They won't carry on until they have something out on Forex. Let's not forget the importance of that because that's attached to WTO. I think that's an enormous indicator of where we're at. They've got to pull the plug. They've got to show that rate internationally on Forex even if they show 1310, which they won't because they'll implode economically, but they've got to put something up on that board. They've got to show the international world the currency. It's got to be up there. Frank26 Soon I will be receiving, god willing, thousands and thousands of locations where you will be able to exchange. Not the ones where you call the US Treasury, where they tell you all the banks in America where you can exchange. Not that one. The one where the CBI is releasing thousands of banks all across the world. Those banks are going to collect the 3 zero notes...Michigan and California are the number one states. Jeff Up Until, through the end of September was the government's busiest time period for having and holding sessions of parliament, getting record steps done, all in preparation for them to revalue. Since September they only got a few odds and ends done. Why so little? Because they have a rate change date and they are working around that date awaiting the revaluation. In this month of January you're witnessing them on a small level starting to implement their banking reforms via what they're doing through the currency auctions. That's another critical preparation step for them to revalue the currency... Militia Man Article: "Al-Sudani in Tehran: A new alliance to confront terrorism and the challenges of the post-'fall of Syria' " Iraq as a mediator in the region is going to go along way to keeping stability. There have been meetings with the "new" USA administration by phone at the highest level and an unannounced delegation from the same prior to his Sudani's visit. He is home now. I imagine things went well for all included. Like it or not Iran is a very large trading partner. There has to be a very strong agreement by all parties public and private. Iraq is taking her place again in the region. She has always been in that position as mediator. MarkZ [Rumor]⚡ Things are looking good and there has been a lot of activity. Suddenly a lot of banking contacts have been checking in. Which is exciting. I have had 4 confirmations from banking contacts that I have known for yea, they are telling me now to prepare for new rates. One of them said “It looks like that thing you are expecting is happening by Saturday. New rates by or on Saturday”. Stay calm though. Pure BS in my opinion..! Yada Their banks are now handling all the currency exchanges from the region and around the world. Not just the dollar, they are exchanging dinar and the increased value is about to be seen by us.

RON Frank26 Question: "Do you believe in the tiers getting paid first?" A: I hate to break your heart sweetheart but there are no tiers. People created this illusion that if you belong to this tier you have to give up some of your dinar, you have to be part of their group, whatever it is you will be able to exchange first. That's beyond stupid as stupid can get. There are no tiers. There's no, first level, second level, third level of our American population. Everybody's got dinars, everybody will be treated the same way. Why? Because they all fall under the international banking laws. There is no other ways. There is no other options. If they tell you, 'give me your dinars and you'll be part of the [XYZ] group, RUN! You're not allowed to do what they're doing. That's evil. MarkZ [Rumor] According to articles...the numbers easily support a rate of $3.50 to $4.00. Samson Article "Oil Price Global Oil Website: Trump Will Impose Sanctions on Iraq" Militia Man They say today the exchange rate is 1320 dinar for every dollar. That is the true exchange rate however that will change to an international acceptable exchange rate when the Central Bank applies the new exchange rate to be on international Forex markets. They're preparing for that to happen before our eyes with the [new] reinforcement mechanism...They have switched from the old dollar auction system...

RON Militia Man Iraq has done what they said they were going to do all along. The Central bank implemented a new electronic system so that the central bank would be out of the dollar auction...They now use the correspondent banks to facilitate internal and external trade... The central bank will no longer deal with retail...We can see January 2nd...there's not transfer abroad. Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Television is now showing comprehensive approach on how to trade the Iraqi dinar on Forex. They got some guy going over documents, page after page, on how us Iraqi citizens can invest in Forex. FRANK: This gentleman is teaching you Iraqi citizens how to invest in the Iraqi stock market because you are soon to have purchasing power to do so. They have never taught you this before because you didn't have the purchasing power to do so. Jeff [Response to Militia Man 1-3-2025 Post above] They had a currency auction today. Total sales [abroad] $283 million, 7 banks participated. Nothing has changed. The Central Bank is still having currency auctions. Sorry you missed the fact that there was NO CASH transferred, Jeff..! MarkZ My best contact who I trust due to the position he holds in Iraq, says de-dollarization is under full steam and they expect a new rate within a week or so. Clare Question: "I thought the CBI used the electronic transfer system to send USD abroad for the daily currency auctions, yesterday's news stated they stopped the electronic transfer system. How could they have officially stopped it yesterday, when they sold 283 million USD ABROAD in today's auction?" [That] IS NOT A FOREIGN CURRENCY AUCTION. IT IS A REPORT ON THE NEW SYSTEM - "Foreign exchange window results"

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 Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: We at point now that we expect Alaq give us a speech at any time now. Samson Article: "Iraq Stock Exchange Ranks First in the Arab World in Trading Volume for November" Pimpy Article: "What are Iraqis waiting for after the news of the 'sudden suspension' of the dollar sale platform by the Central Bank?" That is a big deal by the way. They've been talking about stopping the auctions for quite some time. This is their way of getting away from the dollar altogether and by doing so allow them to win the international community. This is going to eliminate a lot of the criminality. MarkZ [Rumor] I am hearing rumors from groups attached to Indian Nations that they are being told to prep for imminent release. It could be within day. Similar mechanism are being re-enacted to when Kuwait RV’d. Some Indian Nations did very well when Kuwait revalued. This has me really excited. Frank26 The Vietnamese Dong has explosive potential IMO based on...that the world will now slowly turn more and more towards Vietnam for the things that they used to get out of China. That evidence has already been displayed in the last six years in their economy...If you went to Vietnam today you'd think you were is Dubai. Militia Man We're going to keep our eyes peeled for 4805, which is the Ministerial Council of Justice numbering system which talked about the federal budget. We haven't see that opened yet for 2024 but we see that it's printed. We don't know exactly what the contents are. We're hoping the new exchange rate is within it. Walkingstick After they stop the auction the nation of Iraq's currency has to be backed by something. It will no longer be backed by the American dollar. But with a basket, the other currencies can back up the Iraqi dinar. But that's not the best way for it to go. The best way is for the Iraq dinar to be backed by gold or by its assets inside of that basket giving it the most power for all the other currencies...No doubt the currency of Iraq is not just backed by oil but by endless amount of things.

RON Walkingstick You want to go to Chase [to exchange your Iraqi dinar]? Nah. Where you going to go? Aki: There's going to be thousands of those exchange centers all over the world. If Chase is going to make you wait 6 months I'm just gonna go to Aki's or the CBI's private banks. In Michigan there will be hundreds of them. Frank26 Sudani and the CBI defend the monetary reform because that is the security and the stability for the new exchange rate. Wolverine [Rumor] The platforms are closing down right now. It looks like we are crossing the finish line. It’s all (allegedly) coming before Christmas. Samson Article: "Al-Sudani: The citizen wants to see something realistic and is tired of promises" Militia Man Article Quote: "After getting rid of heavy burden of its debt, Iraq has transformed from a country indebted to other to a country that can be a creditor to others." Iraq is not going to be be in debt to others but they'll be one that can credit to others. Iraq's going to have a lot of money. Non-oil...oil...tourism revenues...are all in play. Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Television is talking about the dollar exchange. FRANK: of course they are. That's all they're going to talk to you about. FIREFLY: They're saying the dollar platform is about to stop. They're saying there's a shock that's coming when the platform stops. Then they're saying the dollar will rise because of the demand. We think they are warning to be careful not to use the dollar. That's crazy. We know the dinar will have to go up... FRANK: Yeah, because it's not going to be just 1 to 1 IMO. It'll be maybe a little more than 1 to 1 which means it has more value than the American dollar. MarkZ [Reference Mnt Goat post 12-20-24] A change in the dinar rate breaks that parallel market, so to me with the mechanisms put in place yesterday… now they can pull the trigger. Mnt Goat Do you realize how long we have been waiting for this news to get off the sole dollar in payments for imports and be done away with these corrupt currency auctions? Yes, Iraq is now officially out of the sanctioned mode of paying for imports...Can the news get any better (other than getting the RV of course…), WOW! WOW! WOW!. Yes, it’s DONE! ...I see this process moving ahead now very nicely. +++ Friday Midnight Opinions +++ Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Gazette number 4,805 was written and it is all about the amendment that they did in the budget...but it still has not been released to the public yet... Militia Man Outside illicit trade have been warned about "SHOCKS"...The dollar auctions are going to cease and apparently within this year. They did say that is was not going to be specifically on any day. They suggested that timing was open, yet to be within this year. imo That could be anytime or any day they choose. Those that are not associated with a global correspondent bank or hooked up with system already have been warned all year long. It is on them now if they suffer losses. This shows there is no stopping Iraq's Monetary Reforms... Walkingstick The IQD is being introduced to its basket members. These foreign currencies that are coming in through the contracts, some of them, if not most of them, will be playing the part in the float of the Middle East basket. Why is it that this basket is the next chapter in our study? Because the CBI auctions are ending on December the 31st of this year and there will be no restrictions on the Iraqi dinar on an international level as it was before ...This is article VIII compliance which allows them to stop the auctions...Once the float increases the international value of the Iraqi dinar it will start to pair to these currencies in this basket and IMO it will quickly rise in value due to the demand that we are seeing right now.

They will have too also launch the new peg of the IQD to the new basket of currencies. Are you happy yet? Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Mr Sammy told me the dollar auctions were the main and only thing that was holding down the value of the Iraqi dinar and now that Iraq has opened channels to the international countries for money transfers and when the black market of the dollar auction closes it will allow the value of our currency to go up. FRANK: I agree with him 100%...The stoppage of the auctions is the key to everything. All of the other dominoes are going to fall one after the other at a very fast pace. Sudani is working very hard to make sure that he closes the auctions with everything in place in order to give you purchasing power he promised you... MarkZ [Rumor] I am getting more rumors on rates. Two more contractors believes it will be in the $3.92 range. The one I have most confidence is still staying quiet on the rate. He says “Yes we had meetings, and are negotiating rates”- but nothing more.
