8-4-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff This article is from Father's Day of 2021 and is by the financial advisor Salih (former #2 guy at the central bank under Shabibi) "Monetary systems aspire to remove the burden of historical inflation from the folds of the monetary unit by resorting to deleting 3 zeros from the old currency to equalize new currency with lower numbers but with the same value." He's talking about 2 currencies coexisting together with the same value. The same value being pegged against a foreign currency such as the US dollar...They're going from larger 3-zero notes down to single digit notes, probably nothing above 100 plus coins. That's because their inflation is very very low...around 3%.
8-4-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram A pattern is being set and followed that can lead to the increase in the value of the Iraqi dinar. It's a fact that can not be ignored that Iraq is continuing to build the financial infrastructure of countries participating fully in the global economy...
8-4-2026 Newshound Guru Kaperoni If your country is only worth $16 trillion dollars, how could you RV 100 trillion dinar at 1 to $1? Where would you come up with the other $84 trillion dollars when your country is broke? Come on people wake up!
8-4-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Question: "Will Frank have an 800 number?" Frank26: No. Allow me to tell you where the 800# is. Get your credit card. Turn it around. You see the 800# for that bank that represents that card. There's your 800#. Call them and ask them if they exchange foreign currency. The other 800# you need is the United States Treasury's phone number... They'll tell you what banks are exchanging.
8-4-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Iraqi salaries running late is not news. What is new is Baghdad stopped excusing the delays and started explaining them, on the record, with numbers attached. The government confirmed a liquidity crisis and said salaries will be delayed. The monthly salary bill is 10.8 trillion dinars. Domestic revenue against it is 2.5 to 3.5 trillion...The Central Bank of Iraq is sitting on $93.7 billion in reserves, under a gold pile rising in value...A state that rich does not have to plead poverty. It is choosing to...The Prime Minister's own money adviser told the financial press that every salary is fully secured...Iraq has told its people this exact story twice before, and both times it impacted the official rate. The crisis on the screen is the preparation, not the emergency. Baghdad is readying its citizens for the moment Iraq's money changes.
8-4-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Article: "THE PARLIAMENTARY FINANCE COMMITTEE PROPOSES PRINTING MONEY TO SECURE SALARIES INSTEAD OF RAISING THE EXCHANGE RATE" This shows the political temperature around the salary bill is high. Some prefer the short-
term liquidity tool of printing over an exchange-rate step...Printing more dinars...is a short-term monetary expansion and carries inflation risk. A coordinated rate adjustment...would implement a REER-style realignment of the dinar...The pressure is real and the debate is quite active.
8-4-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen You might not know this but Kuwait invalidated huge quantities of stolen currency. Many holders of the stolen notes discovered they couldn't exchange them. Imagine smuggling millions or billions of dinar...and you go to turn it in and it's like, nope, it's null and void. The Kuwaiti government refused reimbursement for certain serial number ranges tied to the theft...A lot of people talk about the large money supply in Iraq as being the argument against a possible Iraqi dinar revaluation...I would argue to say the amount of Iraqi dinar smuggled and stolen from the central bank over the last 23 years...far outweighs the amount that international investors currently hold. Is Iraq going to put something similar in place comparable to what Kuwait did in the early '90s to make a lot of that stolen currency is null and void? ...That would greatly reduce the money supply in a split second.

8-3-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Let's start preparing. Let's start thinking in terms of, if the dinar happens tomorrow, am I prepared? Do I have all my ducks in a row? Am I financially responsible to handle an amount of wealth I've never handled before? You need to start thinking through that because when the revaluation happens a lot of people are going to be extremely emotional. You're not going to know what to do. You're probably going to end up making mistakes and doing things that looking back you're going to regret. Start having a plan, start putting things together, start thinking through the process...
8-3-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Is there any connection between Iraq's currency revelation rumors and the US Digital Asset Market Clarity Act?" Jeff: No. The Clarity Act has nothing to do with Iraq or the revaluation. That's a law to the United States. Forget about the Clarity Act...

It's a real currency that follows sound principles guided by organizations such as the World Bank, IMF, and most recently the US Treasury...Currencies are managed by their central banks and in the case of Iraq they're currently on a fixed peg exchange rate regime which won't be appropriate as their economy diversifies. It is expected that they will move to some type of float allowing the dinar to gradually appreciate incrementally as their own economy begins to prosper and diversify. All of this takes significant time. Be assured, it won't be a random act.

8-3-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] “Will the Iraqi Government remove three zeros from the Iraqi dinar?” They are talking about it again in the news. It is clear that because of the war and closing the Strait of Hormuz that something needs to happen. In the past Dr. Shabibi did a great breakdown. Their “White Papers” did a great breakdown on how they will restore the dinar value and issue lower denomination notes into the market. They told us over and over again that they will not just drop the 3 zeros and our 25,000 notes just become 25. This will not be a lop…they have told us the purchasing power of the dinar increases and will be more than the dollar again and they will issue new LD notes. They will increase its value and restore it to its former glory. As a worst case in this article they allude to the dinar being roughly the value of a buck (1$).

8-2-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Why is it so hard to find a bank as of right now to take IQD?" Because Iraq is under OFAC sanctions. You have to go to brokers...Maybe CitiBank and I've heard of maybe one other bank right now that sell Iraqi dinar, but most of the basic large banks in the United States do not exchange the Iraqi dinar because they are under US OFAC sanctions. Do not go into banks asking them about the Iraqi dinar. They're going to kindly tell you to exit their facility and get out. It's a waste of your time. Don't do it.

They're going to make it a 25 note...They're not going to take a pair of scissors and cut the three zeros out...They're going to take the scissors and electronically cut the three zeros from the exchange rate...That's $0.00085791 ...That's where it's being lifted from. $0.86 that's what they're doing.

It would be more of an accounting process.

Our read is that Baghdad runs in that same order and the two chairs stay empty for exactly this reason. Nobody is handed Interior and Defense, the seats that decide who commands Iraq's guns until it is settled whose guns still exist.

8-2-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Article: "Will the the federal government Remove Three Zeros from the Iraqi Dinar?" The perception of that goes two directions: You have what's going to happen inside Iraq and outside of Iraq...They say in the article two currencies will exist together at the same value. A 25,000 note and a 25 note existing together at the same value. If the value of [a dinar] against the dollar is $3.00...The multiplier is three because it's a $3.00 value. 25,000 becomes $75,000. 25 becomes $75. That's outside Iraq. Inside Iraq...you have what dinar could purchase before the rate change and what dinar could purchase after the rate changes. Before the rate change a 25,000 dinar note could buy a bag of groceries. After the rate change, the 25 note could buy that same bag of groceries...This article is telling you a redenomination is going to occur...in country, not outside the country...
8-2-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Everything is hinging on the Central Bank of Iraq changing the rate. That's what we're all speculating and hoping for. If there are deadlines or compliance deadlines they are trying to get finalized that's a big tell for something coming in the near future. Article: "Iraqi banks accelerate US compliance measures" The US Treasury and Central Bank are working in accordance with each other to get these compliance measures finalized...It's reported that Iraqi bank employees are working 12 hours days to meet certain deadlines. Quote: "Iraq private banks are in an all out sprint to meet new compliance requirements set by the Central Bank of Iraq and the US Treasury." Iraqi banks are up against tight deadlines which is good for us...I'm excited from everything I'm seeing.
8-2-2026 Newshound Guru Ariel The WTO accession timeline is critical. Iraq’s Working Party at the WTO...has been finalizing tariff schedules and trade facilitation agreements through 2026... When Iraq enters the WTO as a full member with ASYCUDA operational its trade settlements need a currency that functions at international par value. You cannot settle WTO-compliant trade with a currency carrying three phantom zeros. The redenomination is a prerequisite for accession not a reward after it.

If the value of [a dinar] against the dollar is $3.00...The multiplier is three because it's a $3.00 value. 25,000 becomes $75,000. 25 becomes $75. That's outside Iraq. Inside Iraq...you have what dinar could purchase before the rate change and what dinar could purchase after the rate changes. Before the rate change a 25,000 dinar note could buy a bag of groceries. After the rate change, the 25 note could buy that same bag of groceries...This article is telling you a redenomination is going to occur...in country, not outside the country...
8-2-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Everything is hinging on the Central Bank of Iraq changing the rate. That's what we're all speculating and hoping for. If there are deadlines or compliance deadlines they are trying to get finalized that's a big tell for something coming in the near future. Article: "Iraqi banks accelerate US compliance measures" The US Treasury and Central Bank are working in accordance with each other to get these compliance measures finalized...It's reported that Iraqi bank employees are working 12 hours days to meet certain deadlines. Quote: "Iraq private banks are in an all out sprint to meet new compliance requirements set by the Central Bank of Iraq and the US Treasury." Iraqi banks are up against tight deadlines which is good for us...I'm excited from everything I'm seeing.
8-2-2026 Newshound Guru Ariel The WTO accession timeline is critical. Iraq’s Working Party at the WTO...has been finalizing tariff schedules and trade facilitation agreements through 2026... When Iraq enters the WTO as a full member with ASYCUDA operational its trade settlements need a currency that functions at international par value. You cannot settle WTO-compliant trade with a currency carrying three phantom zeros. The redenomination is a prerequisite for accession not a reward after it.

8-1-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Going back to the 60's the value of Iraq's currency has always been $3+ and slightly above Kuwait's currency...Kuwait's currency value today is at $3.22...Historically Iraq has always been above Kuwait slightly.
8-1-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I don't think there's a date on the calendar that says the dinar is going to revalue on this specific date. I think it's a moving timeline and certain things have to get done for that event to happen. I believe we are closer than ever. Do I believe August could be the month? Absolutely. But we simply don't know...Let's be calm, patient, grounded...I know it's exciting...Be positive, filled with expectancy but remain grounded and level-headed...
8-1-2026 Newshound Guru Thom February 2023: CBI officials publicly denied any rate change was coming. Then, overnight... the rate moved from ~1,450 to ~1,310 IQD per dollar. No Clarity Act. No US legislation. No global crypto event. A central bank made a sovereign decision.
8-1-2026 Newshound Guru Kaperoni If Iraq is ever going to increase the value of the dinar it has to be done gradually over time so that they can remove the currency that's in circulation. This process would allow it to gradually rise based on the economic growth and success of their own economy. That is a real possibility, but it would take months, years to achieve any significant appreciation in the value.
8-1-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Question: "My first stash of currency was stolen so I can't redeem it, but I could be on [the US Treasury] list. I don't want to pay taxes [on the stolen notes]." Don't worry about that. You will pay taxes on the currency that you exchange. If you have a million dinars and it burned in the fire, you're not responsible for it to turn it in. You have a million dinars and you bury it in your backyard and you just want to leave it there because that's what you want to do, that's your prerogative. It's not until you exchange it that you have to pay Uncle Sam.

It was stronger than the US dollar - approximate value 1 ZWD = $1.47 ...Iraq as never been in the position Zimbabwe has been in. Zimbabwe doesn't have billions of dollars of oil revenue each month...Iraq is so much more. Its economy is more stable than Zimbabwe has ever been. Yet Zimbabwe is presenting 1 ZIG = $.036 after falling in a deep hole of economic depression...Today the ZIG is more stable but the US dollar remains widely used in the country...In Zimbabwe they were given 3 weeks to exchange the old ZIM currency for the new ZIG currency which is backed by gold.

8-1-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff What brought the value of the dinar down? It was Iraq getting placed under US sanctions. US OFAC sanctions very simply brought the value down. What happens when you take the sanctions off? It reinstates back to where it was. In '03 sanctions devalued it from $3.22 so when you take the sanctions off it should put it right back up again...
8-1-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen The most important thing you need to worry about and the most important thing you need to do once the revaluation happens is get your [USD] money in your [bank] account. Get your dinar exchanged. The most important thing you need to do is just go to a bank. Make sure you're going to the right bank and the right branch...You have to be wise...

7-31-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Trump made two statements [back in his first term]. 1. They need to pay us. 2. We have 35 billion of their money... How could we have $35 billion worth of their money and still not be paid? It's because he was secretly referencing the Iraq dinar...The Iraqi dinar has no value...
7-31-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 The three zeros are going to be removed from two different areas. 1. From the decimal representation of the value of the Iraqi dinar, which is $0.00076. When they lift the three zeros take the decimal point and move it over to the right...You got $0.76...At the blink of an eye, at the flip of a switch, 76 cents will become $1.00... 2. Take that 25k note that you got in your hand. Go to the bank. Trade it in for an American currency. They just lifted the three zeros physically from you and the market.
7-31-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen If the dinar revalues at $1.00 wouldn't all the Iraqi citizens become millionaires? ...It's a very valid question to ask...A change in the exchange rate doesn't automatically create new wealth for everyone in Iraq. It changes the value of the currency relative to other currencies...Their purchasing power increases but they don't automatically become an overnight millionaire because the cost of living, cost of goods, everything is adjusted in accordance with the new exchange rate...Foreign investors like us are in a different position...If the exchange rate becomes much stronger...then the investor can realize a significant gain when converting back into US dollars. An Iraqi citizen is different because they already earn, spend, and save mostly in Iraqi dinar. Their daily expenses and cost of living is also in Iraq dinar. They're not making the same type of foreign exchange trade that we are.
7-31-2026 Newshound Guru Kaperoni Question: "Before the Iraq war, their exchange rate was $3.22 based almost solely on oil production. Add 20 years inflation, all seized corruption dinars destroyed, plus 40% new non-oil revenues. Why can’t IQD revalue near $5?" Because in the 80s, 90s Iraq's money supply was in the billions. They started printing more currency in the late 90s and hyper inflation set in, the dinar tanked to 3000 to $1. Currently, there's over 100 trillion new dinar in circulation so there can't be a significant RV.
7-31-2026 Boot-On-The-Ground Guru Omar All of our CBI friends here want you to know they're lifting the three zeros but it's more of an accounting for us citizens. When they lift the three zeros you [international dinar holders] are thinking you going to be rich. We're not thinking that because it's not going to be rich for us...What is happening inside our country is nothing more but a redenomination. It's for accounting purposes...They gave us an example, 1310, drop the three zeros comes 131 dinar. They said...do not look for any value but you won't lose any value. We won't lose, even though we lost three zeros...They say...foreign investors not to benefit from...It'll be more of an event that's going to help all of our banks...major accounts...employee accounts... salaries...contracts, everything is going to be much easier to handle and work with by dropping the zeros. They make this very clear.
7-31-2026 Newshound Guru Clare "The proposal to remove three zeros from the Iraqi dinar would normally require legislation, making it a politically sensitive issue that may be difficult to pass in Parliament...The Prime Minister requested that the Federal Supreme Court of Iraq issue an interpretive ruling regarding the powers of the Council of Ministers under Article 80, Paragraph Third of the Iraqi Constitution, which authorizes the Council to issue decisions, regulations, and instructions...This ruling opens the door for the government to proceed with removing the three zeros from the Iraqi dinar through a governmental regulation, without first obtaining parliamentary approval." [Post 2 of 2]
7-31-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "Will the Federal Government Remove Three Zeros from the Iraqi Dinar?" Quote: "The government is now considering two further options: First: Domestic and foreign borrowing. Second: Removing three zeros from the Iraqi dinar. The Iraqi government is reportedly considering deleting three zeros from the national currency. For example: 25,000 Iraqi dinars would become 25 dinars after removing three zeros. Likewise, all other currency denominations would be adjusted accordingly. Instead of expressing figures in billions, they would be expressed in millions. The objective of this move is to preserve the value of the Iraqi dinar...It also intends to revalue the exchange rate against the U.S. dollar. For example, after removing the three zeros, US$100 could be exchanged for 150 Iraqi dinars instead of the current denomination..." [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
7-31-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The sequence we are watching, IMO, is not [cabinet] seats first.

7-31-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Iraq has been stalling and delaying the cabinet all the way since May with making no efforts to try to resolve the cabinet. That's because the cabinet isn't an issue. They know who they want to put in there. Everything is scheduled to the rate change. The rate change itself is scheduled. That's the critical component to this. Everything has to happen around what is the rate change date. They're timing the cabinet completion with what is the rate change date.
7-31-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 I picked my jaw from the ground and said, what does this mean? He says, we're close...those numbers keep changing and it's been for a little over a week and that's why he decided to reach out and ask me meet with him. Those numbers were higher than I thought they would be and the number also changed while I was there. So he was telling the truth, the numbers are changing all the time. I was not at a local bank so please do not start bothering the banks about this conversation. Let it happen. Let it flow. We're close...He said we would be talking very soon and we have a lot to do...there are no delays. There are no red flags. There are no red lights. He said this is on and popping and that was the end of the conversation. We're there. [Post 2 of 2]
7-31-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 [California bank story] I got a call yesterday ...he wanted to meet with me one on one...I've already done business with them through investments but this was a higher up VP. I went to his office in downtown...The question he asked first was, you've been a customer with us for a long time...along with owning all of these dinars? I was like, yeah, but you already know that...what's the reason for the meeting?...He said, from our conversation you know we're getting pretty close. He said, the main reason why I brought you here today is to show you. He turned his PC screen around and showed me a list of numbers and a list of names and codes. He said, do you know the code for the Iraq dinar? I said, yeah...the color of IQD was in red. The numbers did not start with a decimal point and there were no zeros on that screen for the IQD.

We have to go back to the Iranian backed politicians, militias and factions based in Iraq...we need to
relax and just let it all play out...When a timeline arises for the RV we will know because my contact in the CBI will be on top of it. [Post 2 of 2]

7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen The most important thing you're going to do when the dinar revalues is you are going to take it to a bank...Chase JP Morgan, which is planning to open multiple branches in Iraq, Bank of America, Citi Bank, Wells Fargo...You're obviously not going to keep your money in that bank for too long. Hopefully you're going to be smart and you're going to reinvest that money into other assets. But the initial exchange you're going to take your dinar to a bank. [Dinar Guru Note: Consult your financial and asset protection professionals at the appropriate time to determine the ideal exchange plan for your unique circumstances.]
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They're telling you they're having a liquidity crisis around the time they're preparing to revalue. One of their goals when they go to revalue is to get the large 3-zero notes out of circulation. That's what they're working towards...The timing of this isn't coincidental. They could never tell you they were doing this to prepare to revalue it... They're telling you they have a currency liquidity shortage... that's the step they would do when they're preparing to revalue...It's called timing.
7-30-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence While corrupt militias still hold ground and threaten the region, no budget passes, no oil law moves, and the dinar stays pinned where it is. That is the real reason the prime minister has spent the month moving from capital to capital. Washington wants the militias disarmed by September 30. Tehran arms them...He is settling, city by city, whose fighters lay down their weapons and whose do not. Force comes first. The money comes second. That is the order every currency reset in history has run in, and Iraq is standing right on the turn.
7-30-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 My teams told me to look for the 3-zero lifting education and the lower notes education at the end of this month and that's exactly what I am seeing...These are the things that should give you peace in your heart that what you're involved in is a reality...This whole month has been a plethora of information on our monetary reform. These are the things we dreamed about...
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Pimpy Community comment: "The dinar is a scam...it's never going to revalue." Every time you increase or decrease the exchange rate THAT is a revalue...Around 2019 you could get 1,100 dinars for every $1. A lot of us remember that. Due to economic pressure and decline in oil revenues...the Central Bank of Iraq devalued the dinar to approximately 1,460 dinars for every $1...The dinar was revalued on December 12, 2025 to its current rate of 1310 dinars per $1. Each one of those is a revaluation. For him to say it's never going to revalue is just not true. The dinar itself is not a scam. There are a lot of people out there...that are running a scam, but...it's a legitimate currency.
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Kaperoni The Iraqi dinar is a real currency. Real currencies are guided by sound principles, economic decisions and guidance from organizations like the IMF. Nobody is going to turn the dinar into a lottery ticket.
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Do we have the current banknotes from Iraq? Yes. But here's the concern. The Iraqi government and the IMF keeps pushing the digital payment system and people outside of Iraq cannot easily obtain an Iraqi bank account. I tried...Thus this may leave us in a position where we must travel in order to exchange our banknotes. Certainly there will be a time limit and no doubt there will be an exchange amount limit...For those of you who keep telling me over and over again that we will be able to exchange the IQD in US banks in America, I hope you are right. We all hope you are right.
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen The Iraqi citizens have been hoarding Iraqi dinar for the last 23 years...They don't trust the digital banking system because it's been lacking in Iraq for many many years...Iraq's banking system has been so far behind. But that has all been brought up to par. We are entering a phase where it's time to start pulling in all of those old denominations and all that cash from the Iraqi citizens so they could start going digital. I'm speculating here but the easiest way to do that is to issue new denominations and give those new denominations higher value to incentivize the Iraqi citizens to come in and to suck in all those dinar notes, you know, wink wink, dinar revaluation.
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Saudi and the United States struck Iran foreign backed militias within Iraq. To me that's probably the very last final piece to this from a security angle. The Iran militias were outstanding so they're being dealt with. They probably put a nice dent or removed them... There's still probably some remaining though.
7-30-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Mazhar Muhammad Salih, the Prime Minister's financial advisor, went on camera about the missing 250 and 500 dinar notes. Paper wears out, he said. He also pointed out that Iraq, unlike most countries, still uses paper for small change where the world uses coins. The currency overhaul Iraq's central bank has kept on file since 2011 puts coins at the small end of the new money, and the official who fronted that plan back then is the same advisor who sat in the studio this week. Coins only exist where the smallest unit of a currency is worth something.
7-30-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 I said is there any other way we can validate it? She goes, yes..I can just punch in the serial number and the CBI, Central Bank of Iraq will be able to tell me if it's real or not. Then we ran the VND. She switched it on the screen. All the VND went through with no problem. It spit out the amount and how many bills on the screen. I said, can you tell me the rate? She goes, I can tell you the rate of the VND right now but I can't tell you the IQD rate because I can't see it yet...I said just out of giggles lets take the whole entire stack of IQD and run it through at one time, the lower notes and the big notes...The same thing happened. The same three bills were spit out...I put everything back in my bank bag...She goes, Mr. D I understand why you've been nagging us and why our bank manager is taking real good care of you. I see this in front of me now and I can't wait to help you. It's a lot of money. And the cashier beside her said, and it's so pretty. [Post 2 of 2]

Why don't you coming in tomorrow and test it out...The next day I came in with all my IQD and Vietnam dong...We ran through the IQD first. It liked everything except for two bills. She said the machine didn't say they were counterfeit, so I'm not going to confiscate these two bills, but it's probably because they're worn or maybe a corner is bent or something...I said ok...let me see if it will take my smaller...250s, 500s, 1000s, 5000s and 10,000 bills.

7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Ross IQD RV stuff right here, I don’t care what anyone says... Authority is being asserted, not negotiated...Old Iraq style = ministers can stall mega-projects for factional, Iranian, or personal reasons and nothing happens...New Iraq under al-Zaidi = the PM humiliates you on live TV next to a major foreign leader until you execute.

The resistance itself is the tell...The minister’s hesitation...fits the pattern of the old guard / Iranian-leaning elements still trying to slow-walk strategic files. Al-Zaidi overrode it on camera.

That is the order every currency reset in history has run in, and Iraq is standing right on the turn.
7-30-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 My teams told me to look for the 3-zero lifting education and the lower notes education at the end of this month and that's exactly what I am seeing...These are the things that should give you peace in your heart that what you're involved in is a reality...This whole month has been a plethora of information on our monetary reform. These are the things we dreamed about...
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Pimpy Community comment: "The dinar is a scam...it's never going to revalue." Every time you increase or decrease the exchange rate THAT is a revalue...Around 2019 you could get 1,100 dinars for every $1. A lot of us remember that. Due to economic pressure and decline in oil revenues...the Central Bank of Iraq devalued the dinar to approximately 1,460 dinars for every $1...The dinar was revalued on December 12, 2025 to its current rate of 1310 dinars per $1. Each one of those is a revaluation. For him to say it's never going to revalue is just not true. The dinar itself is not a scam. There are a lot of people out there...that are running a scam, but...it's a legitimate currency.
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Kaperoni The Iraqi dinar is a real currency. Real currencies are guided by sound principles, economic decisions and guidance from organizations like the IMF. Nobody is going to turn the dinar into a lottery ticket.
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Do we have the current banknotes from Iraq? Yes. But here's the concern. The Iraqi government and the IMF keeps pushing the digital payment system and people outside of Iraq cannot easily obtain an Iraqi bank account. I tried...Thus this may leave us in a position where we must travel in order to exchange our banknotes. Certainly there will be a time limit and no doubt there will be an exchange amount limit...For those of you who keep telling me over and over again that we will be able to exchange the IQD in US banks in America, I hope you are right. We all hope you are right.
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen The Iraqi citizens have been hoarding Iraqi dinar for the last 23 years...They don't trust the digital banking system because it's been lacking in Iraq for many many years...Iraq's banking system has been so far behind. But that has all been brought up to par. We are entering a phase where it's time to start pulling in all of those old denominations and all that cash from the Iraqi citizens so they could start going digital. I'm speculating here but the easiest way to do that is to issue new denominations and give those new denominations higher value to incentivize the Iraqi citizens to come in and to suck in all those dinar notes, you know, wink wink, dinar revaluation.
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Saudi and the United States struck Iran foreign backed militias within Iraq. To me that's probably the very last final piece to this from a security angle. The Iran militias were outstanding so they're being dealt with. They probably put a nice dent or removed them... There's still probably some remaining though.
7-30-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Mazhar Muhammad Salih, the Prime Minister's financial advisor, went on camera about the missing 250 and 500 dinar notes. Paper wears out, he said. He also pointed out that Iraq, unlike most countries, still uses paper for small change where the world uses coins. The currency overhaul Iraq's central bank has kept on file since 2011 puts coins at the small end of the new money, and the official who fronted that plan back then is the same advisor who sat in the studio this week. Coins only exist where the smallest unit of a currency is worth something.
7-30-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 I said is there any other way we can validate it? She goes, yes..I can just punch in the serial number and the CBI, Central Bank of Iraq will be able to tell me if it's real or not. Then we ran the VND. She switched it on the screen. All the VND went through with no problem. It spit out the amount and how many bills on the screen. I said, can you tell me the rate? She goes, I can tell you the rate of the VND right now but I can't tell you the IQD rate because I can't see it yet...I said just out of giggles lets take the whole entire stack of IQD and run it through at one time, the lower notes and the big notes...The same thing happened. The same three bills were spit out...I put everything back in my bank bag...She goes, Mr. D I understand why you've been nagging us and why our bank manager is taking real good care of you. I see this in front of me now and I can't wait to help you. It's a lot of money. And the cashier beside her said, and it's so pretty. [Post 2 of 2]
7-30-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 [San Antonio, Texas Bank Story] I spotted a De LaRue machine on the counter. I was like, is that a new machine? She said no...I've had it for about a year but it just got a major update...The bank manager said, you know we've been itching to use this new software update. Why don't you coming in tomorrow and test it out...The next day I came in with all my IQD and Vietnam dong...We ran through the IQD first. It liked everything except for two bills. She said the machine didn't say they were counterfeit, so I'm not going to confiscate these two bills, but it's probably because they're worn or maybe a corner is bent or something...I said ok...let me see if it will take my smaller...250s, 500s, 1000s, 5000s and 10,000 bills. She ran them through with no problem except for one bill. It was a 1,000 note and it was a little worn... [Post 1 of 2]

And continue on a schedule...for 21 days, including Sundays...this is for exchanges to be taking place, redemption of Zim, and exchanges of currencies at the redemption centers...we have some information that says that we will be able to exchange starting as early as...Thursday afternoon, or Friday... Supposedly, the banks will are not "quote unquote" ready to exchange yet, and that they would be ready to exchange starting the 20th or 21st of August.
7-30-2026 Newshound Guru Ross IQD RV stuff right here, I don’t care what anyone says... Authority is being asserted, not negotiated...Old Iraq style = ministers can stall mega-projects for factional, Iranian, or personal reasons and nothing happens...New Iraq under al-Zaidi = the PM humiliates you on live TV next to a major foreign leader until you execute. That is a different operating system... The resistance itself is the tell...The minister’s hesitation...fits the pattern of the old guard / Iranian-leaning elements still trying to slow-walk strategic files. Al-Zaidi overrode it on camera. That is the exact behavior IQD investors have been waiting to see from the new government ... more forced execution on the files that actually matter for fiscal strength and investor confidence.

7-27-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Lets talk about removing a zero because this is where people get hung up. They're like, 'Oh Iraq isn't going to revaluate the currency. They're going to redenominate which means this is going to be a net-neutral event, there's going to be no increase to the purchasing power.' This is where people get confused...There is going to be a revaluation alongside a redenomination...The citizens are going to get purchasing power alongside getting new Iraqi dinar notes...Investors outside the country of Iraq that's where we are hoping and planning to make our return on our investment and make some money...
7-27-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The deletion of the zeros has been undeniable. Nobody's denied it...Alaq never did. Al Sudani never did. The new prime minister hasn't done that. The new finance minister hasn't ever said anything about it nor has the central bank denied it. That tells you a story in itself...
7-27-2026 Newshound Guru Kaperoni There is really only two realistic options for the future of the Iraqi dinar. The first option is something none of us want to see which would be a complete redenomination or neutral event turning trillions of dinar in circulation into billions...The second option is more realistic, with the help of IMF, Iraq will diversify their economy which we have been saying for 10 + years, and float the currency allowing the dinar to rise based on their economic success and market forces to set official rate of the Iraqi dinar.
7-27-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Changing the rate and running the country is no different than a business. You have to know how much money you have. What they're doing right now before they finish their cabinet and change the rate is they're completing the steps of the money. They need to know how much money and capital they have and have it allocated before they can complete the cabinet and change the rate...
7-27-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence An economic expert floated removing one zero from the dinar. No official has confirmed it...Removing a zero is a redenomination. It changes the face of the note, not what the note buys. It is not the reprice this community has waited on for 20 years. The rumor is the noise. The machinery is the story. The number on the note has not moved yet. The country underneath it is being rebuilt to carry a different one.
7-27-2026 Boot-On-The-Ground Guru Omar The CBI deputy governor said today...redenomination and revaluation...They gave us two big steps...Step #1: Redenomination...they gave us four categories for this. 1. The redenomination phase removes the three zeros from circulation from currency. 2. Technical and administrative cleanup. 3. New notes issued, old notes retired. 4. Zero change in the USD purchasing power. It labels change but value does not change. Step #2: Revaluation. 1. The CBI raises the official exchange rate. 2. This produces a real gain in the United States dollar terms. 3. This is the event holders are positioned for.

7-27-2026 Newshound Guru Ariel Haidar al-Sheikh Economic Expert: "To strengthen state reserves and stabilize the Iraqi dinar, economic expert Haidar al-Sheikh said the government is considering a currency overhaul. The proposal includes introducing new banknote denominations or removing a zero from the currency to draw hoarded cash back into the banking system and support the
dinar's value against the U.S. dollar." Currency Overhaul, New Bank Notes, Raise The Dinar Value...Do you know how long we have been waiting to officially hear this from Iraq?
7-26-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Historically speaking, other countries who have done redenominations or revalues like Kuwait...their time period to exchange was roughly 47 or 48 days. That's very very quick.
7-26-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 On this day, July 25, 2026, It is my strong opinion...the monetary reform education to the Iraqi citizens has started today. I look forward to seeing so much more of it come out as this month comes to an end...

This is to stimulate those folks [holding onto U.S. dollars and not dinar] to wake them up.

Depending on where the country's inflation is, is going to determine the direction the rate is going to go, whether it goes up or down.

7-26-2026 Intel Guru Guy It's very clear in the last week we've had roughly 10 years worth of solid news packed in one week. For those of us who've been invested for a long time...if you're a new investor, trust us, we've never seen this much movement ever, ever...it just wasn't the prime minister. He had the Governor of the Central Bank, his finance minister, an entire delegation of
economic advisers and finance people...There were a lot of back channel meetings going on. We don't know what happened but why would they be having those unless something's going to move?

At the start of the week, 100 dollars traded for 153,500 dinars, but by Tuesday, July 21, 2026, it had dropped to 149,500 dinars, and in some cities like Baghdad and Basra even to 149,000. Currently, the rate is stable between 150,000 and 151,000 dinars. Since the beginning of the month, the dinar has regained about 4,000 dinars per 100 dollars."

Do not allow that to happen...Maybe you have to drive an hour. If that's the case so be it. You're going to find out which branches verifies the currency and can do the exchange right there for you. Again, if that money leaves your sight...this can go wrong and things could happen...We're talking about potentially tens...hundreds of thousands, millions of dollars.

I just happen to have some [dinar] with me...On the...little screen..Iraqi dinar was IQD... I said, punch that one right there. She punched the IQD on the screen.

7-26-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] I do not have confirmation that we have new rates on the screens at the redemption centers, nor at the banks yet, but we do feel that is something that we need to have solid rates, not flashing ...So typically, what happens is the Forex lights up with new rates on Wednesday or on Sunday...when it reopens in the United States... reopens at about five or 5:30 Sunday in the afternoon...and according to a particular source, we will see notifications early in the week, but have exchanges started no later than Thursday of this coming week...
7-25-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Community comment, 'President Trump holds Iraqi dinar.' I've heard this as a common theme over the last 15 years...I've heard these arguments even before President Trump ran for the presidency...back when he was on the apprentice. A lot of people would say, Donald Trump owns 30 billion Iraqi dinar. It sounds good. It's interesting to say the least, but that is not public information. No on knows at all if President Trump owns dinar or not. It would seem likely that he probably owns Iraqi dinar. I would venture to bet he owns at least some Iraqi dinar...It seems very plausible but none of us could say with 100% certainty that he does or does not.

7-25-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Article: "MINISTER OF TRADE: TALKS IN WASHINGTON FOCUSED ON PARTNERSHIP AND SUPPORTING IRAQ’S ACCESSION TO THE WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION" This one really got me going since we have been reading Iraq has completed all requirements for accession into the WTO, but nothing ever happens. Why? I know of an investment law that needs to be put in place and parliament intends to work on passing it during their current session. [Post 1 of 2]
7-24-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff You can't call banks and ask about the dinar. They're told to decline you and push you away. They don't exchange the currency. You can only call banks and ask about foreign currency not Iraqi dinar.

7-24-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 When we take our dinars to a bank here in America, that bank is going to send those dinars to the US Treasury. We just add it to our stockpile. But what happens if you go to a private bank or you got to one of the private banks the CBI if going to have? They send it to the CBI and they destroy it.
7-24-2026 Intel Guru Guy My personal goal is to take a small amount of dinar, small is a relative number, and do an immediate cash out in my own name. I don't care about the tax situation. It's not going to be my big nut. It's just going to be a small amount. Then I'm going to set up my personal trust. You have to decide what your tax structure you want for your family.

7-23-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I want this to happen just as bad as we all do. I wanted this to happen yesterday but I do think this is probably going to go into the month of August. I hope I'm wrong. I would love nothing more than to be wrong. But I do think there are a few more things that have to get finalized and get done before we see the Iraqi dinar value greatly increase... You should be very excited.

7-23-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Strengthening currencies often attract more foreign currency investment. That's a good thing.

7-23-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence A currency gets a new value the day the country behind it gets clean enough that the world will finally price it at its real weight. That is the whole of it.

I'm sure Chase, Citi Bank and many other banks are going to be fully aware of it.

Instant wealth for people who didn't earn is highly destructive. besides, there are tax and legal implications to take into account and if I give them an asset and they don't pay the taxes on it, I would be ruining their lives because they went to jail.

7-22-2026 Newshound Guru Kaperoni Keep in mind that Iraq's net worth including all minerals in the ground including oil is only around 16 to 18 trillion dollars. Iraq's money supply is around 100 trillion dinar. So they could never afford any significant RV. It would throw the country into chaos and bankrupt them. But the dinar could go up gradually over time, as a result of their own growth and success. This would allow them to reduce the money supply as a result of the increase in purchasing power. I do believe this is the path for Iraq, a gradual Improvement of the dinars value as the country diversifies its economy and succeeds.

7-22-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen When Kuwait reinstated their dinar to its pre-war peg of over $3.00 it wasn't an arbitrary decision.

Iraq is signing multi-billion dollar partnerships ...For those of us holding Iraq dinar, the 1991 precedent of what Kuwait did is the ultimate proof of concept. The structural setup for a massive dinar revaluation mirrors Kuwait's journey in several profound ways...The first one is asset-backed sovereignty. Just like Kuwait in 1991, Iraq sits on some of the largest proven oil and natural gas reserves on the planet. A currency's true value reflects its resources wealth and the current artificially suppressed rate of the dinar does not match Iraq's massive economic weight. We all know...Iraq as a program rate of 1310 dinar per US dollar and it's been controlled for 23 years.

To me it's quite obvious what they're getting ready to do...There was a certain number of boxes Kuwait checked just before they reinstated their currency...If Iraq does a reinstatement of their old rate... $3.78 under Saddam, that would be an amazing outcome. I think all of us would be very happy with that. There's been debate. Are they going to revalue their currency to a new rate...? It could be 50 cents...a dollar ...$2.00.

Deleting the zeros only applies to Iraqis and those in Iraq AFTER they increase the value of the dinar.

7-22-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Why does [the Iraq dinar] sit at 1300 to the dollar? Because 1300 was written into the 2023 budget law and frozen there.

7-21-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff So many people think delete the zeros has something to do with the rate. It has zero to do with the rate. The deleting the zeros means getting rid of the large 3-zeros notes and replace them with smaller currency notes. That's all it means. It has zero to do with the actual exchange rate itself. Obviously the exchange rate is going to go up, but it has nothing to do with that...A 25 note with a value of $3.00 is worth $75. A 25k note with the same value of $3.00 against the dollar would be worth $75,000...
7-21-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Imagine sitting at the dinner table at Thanksgiving or Christmas after the dinar revalues and those who made fun of you and those who hated on you or those who said it's a joke or a scam are going to be sitting with their heads down, even ashamed to look up because we are going to be proven right.

If they keep the zeros, which is what I keep my fingers crossed for...then a lot of us become millionaires.

7-20-2026 Newshound Guru Kaperoni There is no overnight RV of the Iraqi dinar. If the dinar is ever going to go up in value, it will go up gradually over time as a result of Iraq's own economic success. So yes, what we are seeing now is important because their success means their currency's success.
7-20-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The news is phenomenal. What all the news boiled down to was positioning of the money. That's why Iraq put such a massive emphasis on signings MOU's, oil revenue, all that. They needed the money to move forward. That's what they did. Now that the money is positioned they can now move forward on completing their cabinet, changing the rate and launching the economy, getting back on the world stage. Everything can happen now.

7-20-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] Remember...if you have dinar, President Trump has negotiated with Dr. Sinoen Al Shabibi, a rate contract for a rate on the Iraqi dinar act when he was in his first term, and it should be an excellent, excellent high rate, way higher than a bank screen rate would be, like over 10, about 10 times as high, so that would be terrific.
7-20-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat I want to caution many on a lot of the negativity now about this investment.

Third...there are elements that do not want Iraq to flourish. Instead it has become a situation of massive corruption...Forth, we must follow the news from Iraq and if we do we can see that a new Iraq is on the horizon...

7-19-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence We are closer to this than we have ever been...Most people have no idea it is coming. They did not read the filings or follow Iraq.

7-19-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen My plan is to take 6 months, plan out my entire investment strategy. I truly believe I'm going to be able to take this dinar revaluation investment return I'm going to make and turn it into a billion plus dollars...You could think I'm crazy if you want, but a lot of people thought the people that were investing in Bitcoin back in 2011 were crazy. But guess what, if I would have invested the same amount of money that I did in the dinar into Bitcoin back in 2011, I would be worth well over $9 billion today. People would think that's crazy. It's impossible. It could never happen. It is possible. It can happen. And I know I'm not going to miss it this time around...

7-19-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Why hasn't Iraq revalued? Why didn't Iraq revalue before coming and bringing their large delegation to the United States... to meet with Trump? Why hasn't Iraq completed their cabinet? They had to get the money ready to fund everything. Money had to be in place...They need a lot of extra money going far beyond operating expenses. They need money to fund the HCL, to fund all the new programs coming forward...You have to follow the money...Look what happened this week...signing massive new oil agreements worth mega billions of dollars...The money needed to be in position. Now Iraq can change their rate. That's the reason they couldn't change the rate before coming to the United States...
7-19-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Al-Zaidi runs a half-built cabinet. Parliament seated 14 of his 23 ministers back in May and stalled on the other 9, interior and defense among them...Until that cabinet is whole there is no new budget, and until there is a new budget the dinar holds at 1,300...The law that would put a real price on the oil, the hydrocarbon law that splits revenue between Baghdad, Erbil and the producing provinces, has been stuck since 2007. al-Zaidi has made it a priority of his program...The plan gets drawn in Washington. The signatures that make it real are still waiting in Baghdad, and the reprice waits behind all of them.
7-19-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 IMO Iraq's bank integration into a global system is going to come once the dinar reaches 1 to 1. That will be the float in the international basket...The dinar will lead the Middle East Basket...

7-19-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence We are closer to this than we have ever been...Most people have no idea it is coming. They did not read the filings or follow Iraq. They are working the shifts and covering the bills, and when this lands they will still be standing exactly where they are. We were not smarter than them. We were early, because we happened to be paying attention. That is the whole difference...
7-19-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 JPMorgan confirmed...Iraq is a promising investment opportunity. Oh, you sons of guns, you, because you told me it was a scam...Do not forget the lies... Article quote: "The bank has been continuing its partnership with Iraq for more than two decades." Two decades? And it's been a scam?
7-19-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen My plan is to take 6 months, plan out my entire investment strategy. I truly believe I'm going to be able to take this dinar revaluation investment return I'm going to make and turn it into a billion plus dollars...You could think I'm crazy if you want, but a lot of people thought the people that were investing in Bitcoin back in 2011 were crazy. But guess what, if I would have invested the same amount of money that I did in the dinar into Bitcoin back in 2011, I would be worth well over $9 billion today. People would think that's crazy. It's impossible. It could never happen. It is possible. It can happen. And I know I'm not going to miss it this time around... We're going to be able to change the world through the wealth all of us are going to collectively bring together.

7-19-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Public data and the momentum we’re seeing support that a realistic REER adjustment based on actual fundamentals is in the cards — and likely more imminent than many realize. This fits everything we’ve been tracking: banking reforms, foreign currency flexibility, diversification, energy deals, and deeper global integration.
7-19-2026 Newshound Guru Samson Article: "AL-ZAIDI AGREES WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF JPMORGAN CHASE TO OPEN A BRANCH OF THE BANK IN IRAQ"
7-19-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Why hasn't Iraq revalued? Why didn't Iraq revalue before coming and bringing their large delegation to the United States... to meet with Trump? Why hasn't Iraq completed their cabinet? They had to get the money ready to fund everything. Money had to be in place...They need a lot of extra money going far beyond operating expenses. They need money to fund the HCL, to fund all the new programs coming forward...You have to follow the money...Look what happened this week...signing massive new oil agreements worth mega billions of dollars...The money needed to be in position. Now Iraq can change their rate. That's the reason they couldn't change the rate before coming to the United States...
7-19-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Al-Zaidi runs a half-built cabinet. Parliament seated 14 of his 23 ministers back in May and stalled on the other 9, interior and defense among them...Until that cabinet is whole there is no new budget, and until there is a new budget the dinar holds at 1,300...The law that would put a real price on the oil, the hydrocarbon law that splits revenue between Baghdad, Erbil and the producing provinces, has been stuck since 2007. al-Zaidi has made it a priority of his program...The plan gets drawn in Washington. The signatures that make it real are still waiting in Baghdad, and the reprice waits behind all of them.
7-19-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 IMO Iraq's bank integration into a global system is going to come once the dinar reaches 1 to 1. That will be the float in the international basket...The dinar will lead the Middle East Basket...
7-19-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "Association of Banks: Central Bank's understandings with the US Treasury will reflect on the stability of the Iraqi dinar." Quote: "The Association of Iraqi Private Banks confirmed on Saturday that the Central Bank’s understandings with the US Treasury represent an important turning point in the course of reforming the Iraqi banking sector, and indicated that this development will have a positive and direct impact on increasing the stability of the value of the Iraqi dinar."
7-19-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] we have heard from one of our sources that rates will be on the screens this weekend...we know that the forex realigns every Sunday evening. Generally speaking, we get new rates on Sunday night that show up Monday morning at the redemption centers. Maybe that's going to be the case as well. But I would say we are very, very much to the end...

Quote: "Iraq stands at a new crossroads in the corridors of international diplomacy. Visits by heads of state are often dismissed as routine protocol procedures filled with forced smiles, but Iraqi Prime Minister Ali Zaidi’s visit to Washington in mid-July breaks this mold." ...this visit and maybe even future visits too may NOT be just routine but working with Washington to lay out and incorporate Trump’s plan for Iraq and how Iraq can assist the US as a major player in getting it done, and at the same time moving it ahead too. Do you think they will need the RV and Reinstatement to move ahead, to execute Trump’s plan?

7-18-2026 Intel Guru Guy You'll be dealing either with a wealth manager or a private client manager and maybe even in some cases a [bank] branch manager but it'll be a branch manager who's trained in how to handle these transactions. You want everything done in one appointment. Keep that word in you mind, 'one' appointment [meaning no shipping off your dinar to verify them, making it multiple appointments: Dinar Guru Note: Consult your financial and asset protection advisors at the appropriate time to determine the exchange process and procedures best for your unique circumstances.]
7-18-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The Iraqi dinar stays frozen at a program rate, far below what a country sitting on $16 trillion of oil and gas is worth. Take the outside hands off it [Iran], and it is free to price at value...Yesterday the biggest hand of all [Iran's], the one that ran the whole skim, was cut off.
7-18-2026 Newshound Guru Kaperoni There is no RV. Iraq could never afford it. It would throw their entire country into chaos. Iraq's net worth is only about 16 trillion dollars, including oil and all minerals. only way..increase value gradually over time...
7-18-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff A lot of people might think the rate change itself brings a lot of money into Iraq. That's not the case. A rate change brings no profit into Iraq. All that the rate change does is get rid of larger currency notes with...zeros and increases the purchasing power to small currency notes. That's all it does. It doesn't...magically bring money into the country...It does a lot more for their economy. It creates jobs and economic diversification. It does a lot of powerful things but it's not going to give the country of Iraq more money when they do this.

7-18-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I am someone who believes 100% the Iraqi dinar will revalue in the near future. That is my belief. That is my speculation. I'm not claiming it as fact. No on knows what's going to happen...

When someone at CHASE Bank tells you that they will never deal with IQD, you have something to show them. In fact, JP Morgan has been involved in Iraq since 2003 and even sold IQD in the past.
7-18-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Iraq has come a long way. We all know that. It's not 2003 anymore. It's not 2016 anymore...The pieces are aligning in a way that supports the long game of full integration of the global financial system...
7-18-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 The articles have told you very clearly, we are in the final stage of the project of lifting the three zeros from our exchange rate to add value to the currency. You got the cockroaches...say, 'no, you're not.' ...You understand this is a process based on supply and demand of the Iraqi dinar...No one controls the supply and demand of the Iraq dinar.

7-18-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat ...to change out the currency to the lower denominations...they will need to get a higher rate to the dinar as at 1/6 of a penny the lower denominations would be worthless...the plan developed by Dr Shabibi (then the director of the CBI) along with the IMF is to also follow through shortly afterwards with the reinstatement to FOREX with a revalued rate and to repeg the dinar from the sole peg of the US dollar. We can be assured the new rate has to be at least $3.22 or greater. We are now seeing on the screens a pending rate of close to $5. This rate will NOT advance to FOREX trading until the OFAC sanctions are lifted on the IQD.
7-18-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] ...what we've heard is we were to be notified either Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday. Well, we're not getting it yet...but what I've heard more recently...that said, give it another 48 to 72 hours. That would put us at the weekend...Saturday, Sunday, and we had heard that we would get notified and begin exchanges over the weekend. I can't say that's still going to be the case.

Do you think they're going to do all these economical things moving forward [On Trump/Zaidi meeting] with a currency that's worth 1310 per US dollar? One tenth of a penny? I have a hard time believing that...Everything happening is positive. I have nothing negative today. This is all good, good stuff. If you are a dinar investor you should be very positive.
7-16-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Since the 10th of July the value of the Iraqi dinar [market rate] has been going up. It may be moving like an inchworm, a little bit at a time, but it's doing the predictable. It is doing what it was set up to do, scheduled to do, positioned to do. The numbers are encouraging. They should be decreasing to the point where it will reach 1 to 1 so that it can play fair with the American dollar...You're going to enjoy watching it grow...
7-16-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The rate is not going to change while they're in Washington DC right now...The cabinet has to be approved first. The government has to be completed...They clearly said multiple times the new government is the administration that walks Iraq into the next stage, next phase...The reason why the government remains incomplete is because they're not ready to revalue exactly now. But they are ready to revalue in the near future...Completing the full government will take Iraq international and allow them to go international. That's what you're waiting to see...That's the golden piece of this.
7-16-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence A currency cannot be repriced in a country who's own people will not bank in it.

It may be moving like an inchworm, a little bit at a time, but it's doing the predictable. It is doing what it was set up to do, scheduled to do, positioned to do. The numbers are encouraging. They should be decreasing to the point where it will reach 1 to 1 so that it can play fair with the American dollar...You're going to enjoy watching it grow...
7-16-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The rate is not going to change while they're in Washington DC right now...The cabinet has to be approved first. The government has to be completed...They clearly said multiple times the new government is the administration that walks Iraq into the next stage, next phase...The reason why the government remains incomplete is because they're not ready to revalue exactly now. But they are ready to revalue in the near future...Completing the full government will take Iraq international and allow them to go international. That's what you're waiting to see...That's the golden piece of this.
7-16-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence A currency cannot be repriced in a country who's own people will not bank in it. That is what Zaidi is sitting in Washington to fix this week, and the blueprint the World Bank put in front of him is a plan to make Iraqi banks worth trusting. The 1300 rate waits on a budget, and the budget waits on nine ministers parliament has not seated...
7-16-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] ...we did hear from a very strong source that it looks really good for us to get notified Wednesday, Thursday, and or Friday...and then ... this weekend for exchanges to start, so we have a little three-day window, 15, 16/17...Those three days we should receive our notifications and set our appointments and begin getting our exchanges started...we're just looking forward to getting it started...
7-16-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Iraq is at the very cusp of some major changes that are revolutionary in nature for Iraq. Yes, yes, yes we have heard this before but...this time it is different...I firmly believe we may finally see some REAL progress and changes for Iraq in the coming period that will directly lead us to the RV and Reinstatement. But we will have to get through it to get to it.
7-15-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 1300 is not in the vision or the future of Donald Trump and Iraq. You know it. I know it. The world knows it...
7-15-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Trump said al-Zaidi was not just going to be a leader in Iraq but one of the main leaders in the Middle East who's going to lead the Middle East with bringing wealth back into the region. If you're an Iraqi dinar investor these are things we already knew and really what we're banking on. These are the thing we have believed all these years and this was proof...

7-14-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff This trip to DC Washington is happening around the rate change...Don't treat this like it's a critical because it's not. Those of you thinking, 'Oh my gosh, he went there at 1310.' You're just stressing yourself out and there's no reason to do that. It doesn't matter that he went there at 1310. It's simply for future business relations for after the rate has changed...What you should get excited about is what they're hiding from you, which is the full completion of the cabinet because they told you a completed government take Iraq to the next stage/phase. They're hiding that date from you...
7-14-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Walkingstick What is the monetary reform trying to do with the currency of Iraq? It is trying to get the currency of Iraq to be at least on par 1 to 1 with the American dollar. If you have an Iraqi dinar in your hand you want it to have purchasing power of at least $1.00. That's the whole purpose...After the 10th we are actually seeing all of these mechanisms come into effect...Many things are trying to get the Iraqi dinar to 1 to 1 with the American dollar.

7-14-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] Zaidi arrives and has a busy day of high-level meetings. Today Prime Minister Zaidi has appointments with President Trump, Vice President Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and with the Secretary of the US Treasury-Scott Bessent. Think about that...There is a lot going on in DC today with PM Zaidi.
7-14-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Iraq's prime minister is in Washington ...He brought his entire economic cabinet and booked 5 days...The finance minister sits with the World Bank, the IMF and the US Treasury, working to clear Iraq off the FATF grey list it landed on last month. The oil minister carries a development fund...to 400 billion dollars...with the proceeds held in US banks ... Every file points the same way - out of Tehran's orbit and into Washington's ...What looks like a handshake is the new financial system being built, and Iraq is the country they are building it on first...When a country is finally let back inside the system, the thing that gets repriced is its currency...
7-14-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I'm not here to convince anyone. I'm here to present the facts...Ultimately people have to make their own decision on if this is an investment they want to be part of. I personally believe this is going to be a once in a life-time financial event. I believe if you are invested in the Iraqi dinar you have been strategically placed into this investment for a time such as this. I'm excited. I'm excited for you if you hold dinar. I'm excited and looking forward to some big things happening in the near future...

7-14-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Prove me wrong - I need you to show me on any major US news, not Reuters, that Zaidi traveled here today or show me his schedule that he came here via Trump's schedule that he's meeting with Iraq officials. It has to be the White House. You can't tell me they're not going to post it. It has to be posted on Trump's schedule or the White House schedule because that's where they would all have top level security protection...So either show me via meetings or schedules that he came here via either White House or Trumps schedules or US news that he traveled there...
7-14-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] I am hearing a lot of rumors about the Admirals Group having started…I have a lot of contacts in the “Admirals Group” and some have moved…but not everybody. Do they think the rest are getting ready to move? Yes...This is from someone actually involved in the process... I cannot say the exact timing…all we can do is guess. What I believe is a reasonable guesstimation is if they do complete Indian Nations and bonds this week, (I was told bonds will get 100% funds...) and when that money starts rolling out then within hours or just a few days…that is when the groups go and then we get our announcements to go off to our redemptions ...We are watching the steps happen before we go. Just relax…I believe we are moving. [Post 2 of 2]
7-14-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] Here is what I am hearing from a number of different contacts in a number of geographic locations around the world. I am being told the Indian Nations have now gotten to about 80% funded and processed. This comes from one Indian source and a couple of bond folks who were given these updates. They say its expected to finish/wrap up in the next few days…and then bonds roll. This explains why bond folks are very excited. They are hearing the Indian nations are about to wrap up...I am very encouraged and think this is great…especially coming from the sources I am getting this from. [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
7-13-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen We are drawing very close to the end of this...Start preparing for when it happens because this is going to be a very emotional event for a lot of people. Most people are just going to be happy to go to the bank. They're not going to do any prior research. They're going to drive to their closest bank and the bank is going to say, this is what we're offering. This is the fee. This is the spread. And people are not even going to care. They're just going to take it. That is where a lot of mistakes are going to be made...
7-13-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Question: "Do you see it going more than 1 to 1?" Frank: Yeah. 1 to 1 is a good starting point...But because of supply and demand...because of everything that we are seeing, everybody's on pins and needles just waiting to explode with the Iraqi dinar...it probably could be released at 1 to $1.10 - $1.15 - $1.20...
7-13-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The dinar trades at 1,300 to the dollar for one reason... That number is frozen in the 2023 budget law, and it moves only when a seated cabinet passes a new budget with a new number for the central bank to announce. Clean the government, seat the cabinet, pass the budget, and the rate can finally answer to the wealth underneath it.
7-13-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Walkingstick [Iraqi bank friend Aki update] AKI: It'll be a gradual increase but a flip of a switch can also occur at any moment due to the laws that encompass reform. The flip of a switch would show whatever rate he's saying automatically. But we also know the flip of the switch was already started on the 10th...and you can see the movements of the currency...The rate can come out today or tomorrow because it is all based on supply and demand...Until then there will continue to be numerous pips that are happening. But the rate that is slowly going up could reach the level we want overnight by supply and demand.
7-13-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They're saving the most important piece for last. Completing the cabinet after his return from Washington because that's the lynch pin. That's what takes Iraq to the next stage, next phase...Iraq is on the threshold of getting back on the world stage, ...being open for business to the world...You're very close to the point of the rate change...

You do not fly the people who run a country's money to a meeting that is only about oil. The prize... - getting Iraq's money treated as clean enough to let back into the financial system after years held at arm's length.
7-13-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen We probably have one of the most exciting weeks coming up ever since I've been involved in this investment...Zaidi, the Iraqi prime minister is heading to Washington DC with his entire delegation, including the central bank governor. The entire purpose of this trip is really for economic support...This upcoming week we are going to find out a lot of exciting news. Stay grounded. We don't know what we don't know.

7-13-2026 Guest Guru Jon Dowling "Iraq’s Biggest Update yet, July 13th Trip to Trigger the Reset" Iraq is stepping onto the international stage with renewed vigor, signaling a proactive approach to both its foreign relations and domestic economic landscape. Recent developments highlight a strategic push to solidify its position globally while simultaneously tackling internal challenges through ambitious reform efforts. A key indicator of Iraq’s renewed international focus is the expedited visit of Prime Minister Al Zaidi to Washington D.C...set for July 13th...Iraq’s proactive engagement on both the international diplomatic front and its ambitious domestic economic reform agenda marks a pivotal moment for the nation. With significant recoveries from corruption and forward-looking discussions on financial modernization, Iraq is charting a course towards greater stability and influence.
7-13-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Article: “THE US TREASURY IS TRACKING $300 BILLION OUTSIDE THE IRAQI BANKING SYSTEM.” ...nearly 70-80% of all the currency...is horded, stashed or stored outside of the banks... The US Treasury is now helping to track down this money and where it is... Remember that the hard currency that we hold is included in this amount of 80%. They will have to come get it from us too. There is no way of getting around this if they truly want to resolve this issue. Article quote: "Some resort to converting dinars into foreign currencies, most notably the dollar, which puts undue pressure on demand and leads to higher exchange rates in the parallel market."
7-13-2026 Newshound Guru Ariel Are you all even reading what is coming out of Iraq regarding this upcoming Washington meeting? Do you not see how they are framing this as reaching the end of a long bridge from where they started with monetary reforms from what they are about to accomplish as the tipping point once it concludes? Especially since ASYCUDA is now activated. Monday and throughout that entire week trade agreements will be made that will allow Iraq to finish not only their cabinet but reforms.

7-13-2026 Newshound Guru Samson Article: "PRIME MINISTER : WE CARRY TO WASHINGTON A MESSAGE OF CONFIDENCE THAT IRAQ IS A SOVEREIGN STATE STRIVING FOR DEVELOPMENT"
7-13-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 We all know Iraq is going through a financial currency reform but more so we know Iraq is becoming a financial currency hub and they're being prepared to be just that in the Middle East. It's very exciting because we're witnessing it. We can see it.
7-13-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Iraq's prime minister just flew to Washington...His central bank governor is on the plane. So are his finance minister and his oil minister. You do not fly the people who run a country's money to a meeting that is only about oil. The prize... - getting Iraq's money treated as clean enough to let back into the financial system after years held at arm's length.
7-13-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen We probably have one of the most exciting weeks coming up ever since I've been involved in this investment...Zaidi, the Iraqi prime minister is heading to Washington DC with his entire delegation, including the central bank governor. The entire purpose of this trip is really for economic support...This upcoming week we are going to find out a lot of exciting news. Stay grounded. We don't know what we don't know. There's a lot happening behind the scenes that I'm sure will be released to the public soon...
7-13-2026 Guest Guru Jon Dowling "Iraq’s Biggest Update yet, July 13th Trip to Trigger the Reset" Iraq is stepping onto the international stage with renewed vigor, signaling a proactive approach to both its foreign relations and domestic economic landscape. Recent developments highlight a strategic push to solidify its position globally while simultaneously tackling internal challenges through ambitious reform efforts. A key indicator of Iraq’s renewed international focus is the expedited visit of Prime Minister Al Zaidi to Washington D.C...set for July 13th...Iraq’s proactive engagement on both the international diplomatic front and its ambitious domestic economic reform agenda marks a pivotal moment for the nation. With significant recoveries from corruption and forward-looking discussions on financial modernization, Iraq is charting a course towards greater stability and influence.
7-13-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Article: “THE US TREASURY IS TRACKING $300 BILLION OUTSIDE THE IRAQI BANKING SYSTEM.” ...nearly 70-80% of all the currency...is horded, stashed or stored outside of the banks... The US Treasury is now helping to track down this money and where it is... Remember that the hard currency that we hold is included in this amount of 80%. They will have to come get it from us too. There is no way of getting around this if they truly want to resolve this issue. Article quote: "Some resort to converting dinars into foreign currencies, most notably the dollar, which puts undue pressure on demand and leads to higher exchange rates in the parallel market."
7-13-2026 Newshound Guru Ariel Are you all even reading what is coming out of Iraq regarding this upcoming Washington meeting? Do you not see how they are framing this as reaching the end of a long bridge from where they started with monetary reforms from what they are about to accomplish as the tipping point once it concludes? Especially since ASYCUDA is now activated. Monday and throughout that entire week trade agreements will be made that will allow Iraq to finish not only their cabinet but reforms. Quote: “A series of major agreements will be signed in the fields of energy and the economy…. and the rest goes without saying…. and I return to say… before the visit will not resemble what comes after it.”
7-12-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "Small denominations of the Iraqi dinar reveal a negative indicator of the money supply... An expert explains with figures" Quote: "According to data from the Central Bank of Iraq ...the total number of banknotes issued increased from about 5.8 trillion banknotes in 2022 to 6.3 trillion banknotes in 2026, which led to an increase in the per capita share of banknotes from 120 banknotes to 141 banknotes, raising their total value per person from 1.8 million dinars to 2.51 million dinars... the 50,000 dinar... as the number of issued notes jumped from 319 million notes in 2022 to more than 941 million notes in 2026... the prominence of large groups is an economic indicator that most of this money is going towards hoarding outside the banking system instead of circulating in the economy...The failure of small groups to grow in proportion to the size of the total money supply...necessitates a comprehensive review of monetary policy"
7-12-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen If you are a dinar investor you need to look at all of these reforms happening together. Not just the ASYCUDA system being implemented but you have digital customs...digital banking, electronic payments, anti-money laundering reforms, new central bank governor who's anti-corruption...new PM who is anti-corruption...better border control...tax collection improvements...digital trade...reduced cash economy...international banking connections. All of these things are extremely positive for dinar investors.
7-12-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Pips are partial movements of a currency rate. Two days before the 10th we saw that the dinar was gaining value against the dollar in the street markets. Yesterday we saw it wasn't doing so much [going up] but it was jumping all over. Then today...the IQD is slightly up. I don't care if it's slightly. It's going up. We need to see the direction to be upward like walking up a staircase...I'm extremely excited that what we wanted to see, we're seeing.
7-12-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man ASYCUDA system is a big deal because it's going to support the value or REER (Real Effective Exchange Rate) on into the future. Their focus is on non-oil revenues diversification...
7-12-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff We at the civilian level will have 90-days to exchange. Countries, central banks, will not have to adhere to the 90-days. Don't confuse central banks with you and I at the civilian level. We will have a 90-day period to get them turned in most likely because they've already done that twice in Iraq. The central banks won't have to adhere to 90 days. The central banks will use it under Basil III compliance to asset back their currency values. Central banks and governments are different than you and I...at the civilian level. Don't mix those two up.

He's going to talk to him about the movements about [the dinar] on the global market scale now because it has started dedollarizing on the 10th of July...Trump feels Iraq still owes the United States some money...Trump is being bold...
7-12-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 It can happen at any moment...It may not be two weeks or two months... It is a logical thing to accept anywhere from 1 to 2 months from now. When you stop and think about it is a small time. It's a small price to pay compared to the time that we have been waiting...I believe it's coming!
7-12-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "As confirmed by Shafaq News, Al-Zaidi will travel to Washington tomorrow" Quote: "Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zubaidi will head to the US capital, Washington, on Monday, at the head of a high-level delegation, in a visit that Baghdad has confirmed is of great importance, especially as it comes at a delicate regional time."
7-12-2026 Newshound Guru Harlequinc3 I believe we're waiting for 1000-1 and then remove 3 0s to make it 1-1. Going from 1530 to 1310 closes the parallel market. Then we'll see that "parallel" rate of 1310 surpassed (it'll be going the OTHER way from the official rate for the first time in dinar history -- going higher than the official rate instead of lower) and that "parallel" rate will go up to 1000-1. Then the CBI 'pulls the trigger' on a rate change jump from 1000-1 all the way up to 1-1 (removing the 3 0s) -- making the official mean 1 dinar gives you $1 (and if they add a little bit to sweeten the deal to ensure the citizens drop the dollar like a bad habit...I personally imo think they selected 1310 for a reason, and may be more like $1.31-ish...)
7-12-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "Al-Mustaqilla reveals: 3 key issues in Al-Zaidi's visit to Washington" Quote: "As attention turns to Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zubaidi's visit to Washington on July 15, information...reveals that the economic agenda will be at the forefront of the talks, with an American focus on financial files related to Iran, while the file of combating corruption is absent from the visit's agenda....these files reflects Washington’s interest in securing the Iraqi financial system and preventing its use as a loophole to circumvent sanctions, at a time when Baghdad is seeking to maintain the stability of the dinar’s exchange rate..."
7-12-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen At a 50-cent RV, if your target was $1 million you would need about 2 million Iraqi dinar...If you wanted to walk away with about $10 million, then you would need to own about 20 million Iraq dinar. That is about $20,000 (invested)...Iraqi dinar could revalue at $1.00...Let's say your target was to walk away with $1 million, you would need 1 million Iraqi dinar...If your goal was to walk away with $10 million, you would need to own about 10 million Iraqi dinar. That's worth about $10,000 today... Using a $3.00 revaluation...if your goal was to walk away with $1 million, you would need to own about 333,000 Iraqi dinar...If your goal was to walk away with $10 million...then you would need to own about 3,333,333 Iraqi dinar. That's roughly $3,300 (invested)...Sometimes it's fun to speculate...

7-12-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I do believe we are getting closer to the end of this Iraqi dinar valuation ride. I wanted to go over a few different possible rate outcomes - How much dinar you would need to own in order to...walk away with...the amount you're looking for? ...Do I believe the Iraqi dinar will revalue at 10 cents? I personally do not. However I think it is important to be prepared for all possible scenarios...Iraq might want to revalue at a very low rate to pull in a lot of notes, to get a lot of people to exchange quickly and then possibly raise the rate...I based my entire Iraqi dinar investment on 10-cent revaluation. This way if the revaluation comes out a lot higher I'm going to be happy...If your target is to walk away with $1 million, at 10-cent RV, you would need 10 million Iraqi dinar...If your goal was to walk away with $10 million then you'd need to own 100 million Iraqi dinar, that's roughly $100,000 (invested)... [Post 1 of 2...stay tuned]
7-12-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 The ASYCUDA has started. That means the Iraqi dinar is slowly going to start to go up in value...I don't care if it's a real small incremental move. I don't care if it's a small little pip movement. I don't care about that as long as we see...appreciation.
7-12-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] ...it sounds like Monday, Tuesday are in play for us to get notified and set appointments with exchanges starting quite possibly Wednesday, the 15th of July...That's what it looks like right now... and if we get in by Wednesday the 15th for exchanges, let's all call it a win.
7-12-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat There are many more reasons for withholding the return of the IQD to FOREX. If you have been in this investment, even for a few years, you have witnessed the corruption and now in today’s news we see it again.

7-10-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Investing in Iran's currency - before you look at me sideways, just know that savvy investors all over the globe are looking at the possibilities. Pakistan even made a video on the subject.
7-10-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] Well, we didn't make that last back wall of the fourth...so we can forget about the term back wall, because it never seems to happen for us, so I apologize for any information I may have brought out that didn't happen, and I'm not happy about it... Well, you know, I get disappointed, just like you guys do. Just so you know, I've been on this ride...for a long time - 21 years invested, and I know it's happening. I know it's coming, but it just isn't here yet, is it? Have I lost faith? No. Has my faith increased? Probably.
7-10-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Are there any other currencies that are going to go?" I don't believe any other currencies are going to go but that's my opinion and I respect there's many other people that think there's other currencies...
7-10-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Corruption has been the one single-handedly thing that has held the country of Iraq back. It has stolen from their people directly and it has delayed the Iraqi dinar revaluation. It has all let us to the point we are at right now which is the tipping point. It's really a do or die type time period we are in.
7-10-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 The next two months are going to be extremely exciting because we will be able to see and follow the evidence of every PIP movement on a daily basis. It will increase the value of the dinar's exchange rate. It will eventually hit 1 to 1 and eradicate the black market. After the RI is established, maybe around $3.22, then they can start the float which might put you in the $4.00 range...
7-10-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "Government advisor: No change in the dinar exchange rate against the dollar" Quote: "The financial advisor to the Iraqi Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, denied the existence of any plan or program by the Iraqi government to change the exchange rate of the dinar against the dollar, stressing that this matter has not been discussed in any way." EVEN A DENIAL AT THIS TIME IS TIMELY.
7-10-2026 Boots On The Ground Guru OMAR On television Prime Minister Z is going to leave Iraq on Monday the 13th. He's leaving with a whole bunch of businessmen out of Iraq that are going to Washington to see the president in the United States of America. They're going to be there six days...He's going to leave a couple days early...Then they'll get back over here...around the 19th or 20th. Then they said they were going to get the cabinet right away announced...
7-10-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence For years, Iraq's central bank sold dollars at the official rate to anyone who could show paperwork for imported goods. Much of that paperwork was fake...The cheap official dollars flowed straight...to Tehran and the militias it funds. One Baghdad bank alone is accused of pulling 6.5 billion dollars out of the auction on fraudulent paper. That fraud... was a supply line, and Iran stood at the end of it, fed dollars the United States itself had wired into Iraq's account. This morning it changed. Iraq switched on ASYCUDA, a customs system...so the fake paper stops clearing. The central bank also cut the cash dollars a traveler can carry from 3,000 to 2,000 a month, closing the retail leak alongside it.
7-10-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen The biggest argument for the Iraq dinar not being able to revalue is because the money supply is too large. When you have trillions of dollars getting smuggled and stolen every single month, when you put a stop to that...you're greatly reducing the money supply and you're saving the country a lot of money. [ASYCUDA] single-handedly is going to stop a lot of the corruption that's been going on in Iraq for years and years and years.
7-10-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Denial of the truth...Denial phase, that's where we're at...China did the same thing. All countries that go through a change in their currency will constantly put off speculators with all types of denials and misdirection and lies. That's what you're witnessing right now. I don't care if it comes from the CBI. You have cockroaches everywhere. I think I know what Trump wants. That's all that matters.
7-10-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] ...everything I'm hearing is mostly pointing toward the weekend and exchanges to start early next week, so that's that's if everything goes according to plan.
7-10-2026 Newshound Guru Ariel ...Preparation For The Market Economy (I Think You Will Like This Update)...The Central Bank of Iraq’s moves full reintegration of dollar banks under tighter oversight, mandatory ASYCUDA electronic customs declarations kicking in hard around July 10 are choking those old loopholes. No more paper invoices sliding through borders unchecked. Revenue’s already spiking in some reports, smuggling routes drying up, and that forces real domestic velocity...The old cabal-adjacent networks loved the dollar auction casino because it funneled liquidity their way. Choking it starves those veins while prepping Iraq for Forex-level credibility. This couldn’t have happened at a better time folks.
7-10-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat I have been telling everyone for years that this Iranian proxy status in Iraq must end and Iran must be taken down and we would not see the RV until this happens...Now it is happening and the takedown is underway. We all should be very happy for this situation not gloomy....
7-10-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 As far as when the rate comes out, I don't know and neither do you. But we both know without a doubt it is being delivered to the Iraqi citizens right now. But it is a process...It is a process that one day will lead you where you'll say, wow! That process, that journey, will cause you to be amazed at what's going on. You have to be careful. Only you can make the decision on when to exchange your currency...Right now you're going to have to watch the closing of the [market rate and official rate] gap.

We all should be very happy for this situation not gloomy....
7-9-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 You're not going to see the new exchange rate boom! At the flip of a switch. It's going to be a slow process of supply and demand that will take it to a level that we hope is 1 to 1...It's a process but after the 10th look out!
7-9-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I am a true believer. I believe the revaluation is not a matter of if but when. I believe this will be one of the largest financial events in our lifetime...You probably feel that way too. I'm excited you're here...
7-9-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They said the new government would take Iraq to the next stage. That means the completed government with completed cabinet would take Iraq into the International world...They're saving the cabinet for the very end because it's the lynch pin. When the cabinet is done that completes the government, they're going to change the rate shortly after that.
7-9-2026 Intel Guru Guy Prior to this year we would get maybe one solid piece of intel a month and then it was every two weeks, then it was every week and now it's almost every day. There is an acceleration of solid news and intelligence coming out of Iraq and other countries too regarding their currencies and their revaluation of those currencies. They're coming into the US dollar system.
7-9-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "Iraq resumes cash dollar shipments ... but experts downplay their impact on the market!" Quote: "The Prime Minister's financial advisor, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, confirmed on Tuesday that Iraq has resumed receiving shipments of US dollars in cash, with each shipment amounting to approximately $500 million...The continued arrival of cash dollar shipments sends a positive signal to the parallel market increasing the level of certainty among traders gradually leads to a narrowing of the gap between the official rate of 1,320 dinars per dollar and the parallel market rate,"
7-9-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Article: "Iraq has maintained its upper-middle income status in the World Bank's 2026-2027 Country Income Classifications, joining Jordan, Turkey, China, Brazil, and Malaysia in the same bracket." This is good news in my opinion, which demonstrates stability, even though there is a military conflict spilling over the border from just to the East.
7-9-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Question: "Will the activation of the ASYCUDA across the country on the 10th of July trigger a rate change?" It is a plausible scenario for us to watch for the 10th...A timed REER adjustment could complement the ASYCUDA by providing a more realistic valuation backdrop for customs declarations and payments. It would make dinar denominated trade transactions less risky and more attractive...
7-9-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Question: "When we're watching it float, for instance $0.50 cents, would you still be able to cash in at that time?" Yeah! If you have a million dinar it would be a half a million dollars. Not bad. It's up to you. Take the money and invest it...You don't have to wait for the RV. You don't have to wait for a float. You don't have to wait for it to climb. Me, at my age, at 70 years old, I'm going at 1 to 1...You can have all your damn 3-zero notes. I'm all set...I may hold on to a few million dinars...and let that work for me...I'm going to go 90% cashed out, 10% I'll hold on to watch it climb...I don't think it would be wise to sit there and wait and gamble to see if the markets will take it to an RI or RV. What if it doesn't?
7-9-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Sometimes it's fun to speculate...If I want to have $10 million when it's all said and done, how much Iraqi dinar do I have to own? ...Play with the numbers, play with the rates and see what that number would be for you. I have always tried to base it on the worst case scenario, which would be the lowest rate plausible. How much Iraq dinar would I have to own to walk away with a certain number in my head that would make me happy? That's how I based my entire investment strategy. Any number that it revalues higher than that is all icing on the cake. [Dinar Guru Note: Feel free to use the Dinar Guru Calculator to see how much your dinar is worth at different possible rates. The calculator link is at the top of this page.]
7-9-2026 Newshound Guru Harlequinc3 I believe we are talking about a managed float, not a free float until all those old 3 0 notes are dried up. The CBI will control the range of motion the dinar has.
7-9-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram The next thing I asked myself is, can Iraq afford it? Surprisingly enough the answer is yes...Iraq's foreign exchange reserves are between $90 to $110 billion in recent years. Even $1 billion currency replacement would represent only 1% of its reserves...So, yes, Iraq could afford to reprint their currency. Now, Why would Iraq reprint...? Reprinting the currency would automatically give the Central Bank of Iraq control over the Iraqi currency...Reprinting the currency would not automatically change the exchange rate but it would enable an adjustment right around the corner of the Iraqi dinar...They could increase the value of their currency so much faster, so much easier and with more confidence if they reprint their currency...That is exactly what Zimbabwe did...Zimbabwe gave everybody a 21-day swap window... [Post 2 of 2]
7-9-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram What does it cost to print a banknote? Modern banknotes with advanced security features generally cost between 5 to 10 cents each. If they want high, high security notes, then the cost goes up to 10 to 30 cents per bank note....The question becomes how many banknotes would Iraq need? The estimation is Iraq would need between 4 to 8 billion banknotes. That's how many banknotes they believe are circulating ...That includes the banknotes we have in the United States, UK and other parts of the world but it may not include the banknotes countries are holding. The cost for...8 billion new printed banknotes at 15 cents per banknote would be $1.2 billion to reprint the money...There are additional costs: designing the new notes... shipping ...insurance...storage...ATM calibration for every ATM machine in Iraq...approximately $100 to $300 million. [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
7-9-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff PMZ's trip to DC...we have three different time frames being mentioned. The Majority of the articles have suggested mid-July...A couple have said July 15th, a couple have said July 17th...I don't think PMZ is going to DC specifically next week...I think PMZ is going to DC more the week of July 19th....maybe around 21st, 22nd, 23rd...I think everything is pushed back one week.
7-9-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 My teams are focused on one thing, and that is to start to watch the value of the Iraq dinar climb...while the market rate is destroyed after July 10th. I find that very exciting. We are going to be able to see the evidence of the shadows that we have been seeing or a long time.
7-9-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Article: "Iraqi dinar will rise once Erbil and Baghdad finalize the ASYCUDA agreement" This is a very large piece of the puzzle we are waiting for and looking for that is going to accelerate what we're all waiting for, which is the revaluation of the Iraqi dinar...Before ASYCUDA imagine someone brings 1,000 TVs into Iraq. They tell customs the TVs are worth only $20,000. But the TVs are actually worth $500,000... everything is done by... writing things down with pen and notepad...They pay very little tax and the government loses money. That's how corruption wins...As of July 10th this new AYCUDA system gets implemented...That means...the system knows what the product is, where it came from, who bought it, what it is actually worth, how much tax should be paid on it...I'd say trillions of dollars have been stolen just through their failed border system in Iraq. This is a huge deal.
7-9-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ I have heard over and over and over that the only allowable float is a 2% per year. That's one thing that my sources agree on lock step that any float would be a managed float with an acceptable level of float at 2% per year. So those that think they're going to hang onto it and make a fortune, I just think you're foolish. I very much believe who all has told me that one...
7-9-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] I had one source that was a good source, still is, that is talking about if we don't get something...by Thursday, then we're looking at the weekend to be notified.

7-9-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat ...we don’t control the reinstatement...we all should know by now that the Iraqi dinar is being artificially suppressed and its real value, if it were to be restated to FOREX today, would be/should be much higher than 1/6 of a penny...we can see that a new Iraq is on the horizon. No, not decades or years from now. So, we have to wait a bit longer but the inevitable will happen and it has to happen.

7-8-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I personally do not believe it's going to be a $7.00 revaluation...I don't see it revaluing at $7.00 right out of the gate. Maybe the rate might work itts way up there in the coming years possibly but I don't see them coming out with a $7.00 revaluation out of the gate. Just doesn't make any sense to me. I've looked at the math. The math ain't mathing on that...
7-8-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 They'll form the government but they may not come out with the rate on that day because after the 10th of July that is when we are paying attention to anything associated with the rate.
7-8-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Are you going to exchange all your dinars at the same bank? Multiple?" If my bank removes all my back-end fees and they already told me they would, I'm going to exchange it at one time. There's no reason to do it multiple times, in trips or different banks. If my primary bank will give me face value for it, I'm going to do it at one time. [Dinar Guru Note: Consult your financial and asset protection professionals at the appropriate time to determine the best exchange strategy for your unique circumstances.]
7-8-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The cleanup is how Iraq buys its way back through the door the banks shut on it. Clean the house, and the value follows. Singapore ran this exact play. Lee Kuan Yew took a corrupt 1960s port, made theft a career- ending crime, and turned it into one of the safest places on earth to hold a dollar. The cleaning came first. The money followed. What took Singapore years, Iraq is running in weeks, in front of Washington, with a reported 400 billion dollar energy fund waiting on the other side.
7-8-2026 Newshound Guru Samson Article: "AN AMERICAN PERSPECTIVE : AL-ZAIDI INVOKES THE 'GODFATHER' TO DISMANTLE THE DEEP STATE IN IRAQ"
7-8-2026 Newshound Guru Pimpy There are a lot of articles about Iraq cleaning up all of its corruption. This reminds me when Al-Kadhimi first came into office. The first thing he did was arrest a ton of senior officials in Iraq for corruption ...This is good. The more corruption they clean up out of there the better it is for the people...People stealing the money...This is a great thing for Iraq because the international...trade and other businesses know that Iraq is being serious about cleaning up...and they're more willing to come in and do business with them if this kind of stuff is cleaned up.

7-8-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen A redenomination is a net-neutral event. We walk away, didn't make any money. We probably lose a little bit of money on the exchange process...Anytime you see an article put out by the Central Bank of Iraq talking about deletion of the three zeros, what it really serves to do is educate the citizens of Iraq. It's not meant to give us a heads up on a revaluation...The more they begin to put out articles like this...as educational campaigns for the citizens of Iraq, I believe that is telling us in a roundabout way that we are getting closer to this event finally happening.
7-8-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 From the 10th to the 15th we're going to see some amazing things. But between now and the 10th they seem to be surprising us with a precursor of your monetary reform...It is not one specific thing but a combination of monetary reform events and steps that is about to expose [Iraq's] purchasing power. When they get to 1300 [market rate] I believe they'll quickly move to 1000 because it'll be easy to remove those three zeros and leave you at 1 to 1 with the dollar. IMO that 1 to 1 will quickly jump in these [next] two months...

7-8-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence For 20 years, Iran held a quiet claim on Iraq - not troops, but access: a friendly face in a ministry, a courier across the border, a bank that moved the money and asked nothing. On July 7, three hands cut that claim...Prime minister al-Zaidi sent a classified order barring every Iraqi official, party leader and militia commander from any contact with Iran without government approval, and banning unapproved travel across the border. The same day, US Central Command struck more than 80 Iranian targets...And Scott Bessent's Treasury revoked the oil license that let Iran sell crude for clean dollars...Iran's own currency sits near 1,375,000 rials to the dollar...
7-8-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen What most Iraqis did was they hoarded US dollars...Widespread dollarization has been a major drag on the dinar. When people start unloading dollars it reduces dollar liquidity pressure. It supports dinar demand. This could accelerate dinar appreciation. This grassroots shift validates the idea that the public is beginning to trust the dinar's future value. If there was a revaluation on the horizon, wouldn't you want the Iraqi citizens to begin trusting in the dinar before the even happens? Because it would make the dinar revaluation that much more ease and seamless once the dinar has more value. They're already starting to trust the dinar over the US dollar.
7-8-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 It's an RI, a reinstatement of $3.22.

There is just too much money to be made by American investors in Iraq when they do realize their full potential. In reaching this ‘full’ potential they will have to revalue the dinar and move back to FOREX. It is forgone conclusion not a speculative idea...The signs of this move to FOREX are all around us...

7-8-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Are you going to exchange all your dinars at the same bank? Multiple?" If my bank removes all my back-end fees and they already told me they would, I'm going to exchange it at one time. There's no reason to do it multiple times, in trips or different banks. If my primary bank will give me face value for it, I'm going to do it at one time. [Dinar Guru Note: Consult your financial and asset protection professionals at the appropriate time to determine the best exchange strategy for your unique circumstances.]

7-7-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I do not care if you own Iraqi dinar or not. I personally believe the revaluation of the Iraqi dinar will be one of the largest financial events in our lifetime. If you're holding Iraqi dinar, I believe you have been strategically led to it.
7-7-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Even if it takes two or three months, the fact that the knowledge has been conveyed to the citizens of Iraq is important because it must not fail with the citizens of Iraq...Supply and demand is going to cause [the dinar] to gain strength...The [US dollar rate] is going to drop after then 10th and the dinar value is going to go up.

This weekend Halliburton signed back in, a 5-year deal to run 2 southern fields, days before Iraq's PM flies to Washington. You do not sign a 5-year oil contract with a country you expect to still have security concerns or further risk...Al-Zaidi is not flying to the Oval Office to ask, he is flying there as a partner, to lock the deal that open Iraq to American trade and let the dinar fly.

Most people get disappointed when they realize the real-world process is nowhere near as simple as the hype makes it sound...Most major U.S. banks do not handle large volumes of Iraqi dinars easily. Many smaller banks or currency exchanges will only do very small amounts, if any at all. The liquidity for large holdings is extremely limited right now...
7-7-2026 Intel Guru Guy [Washington D.C. visit] I believe is scheduled for the 20th of July. The idea is if he's going to meet with President Trump they want to announce good news.

7-7-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen $400 billion US Iraqi energy fund... This is huge...Iraq is openly giving top priority to American conglomerates across the energy, tech and communication sectors. Iraq is inviting heavyweights like Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar to buy into this energy fund as well...Baghdad has mobilized a fast-track committee to lock in a new pipeline agreement with Turkey to secure a massive northern export route...The US-Iraq Energy Fund is worth up to 400 trillion Iraqi dinar... Those of you who say, 'Oh, Iraq's money supply is too big or the revaluation could never to happen,' this deal right here puts that to bed...
7-7-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 It is highly possible [PM Zaidi] will still be able to see Trump on the 15th but it depends on how quickly things are done that are demanded by Trump...Many things will be visible, will be shown to you, between now and whenever Z finally goes to see Trump. I hope it's still the 15th...
7-7-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram It's real heavy in Iraq about now. But I'm happy to say the cash has begun to flow. The money is coming back into Iraq and the Prime Minister is preparing, as we speak, to come to visit Washington.

7-7-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen An interesting article came out on Saturday. What it said was Iraqi citizens are now exchanging their US dollars for Iraqi dinar because the dinar is strengthening. If you've been involved in this investment for many years like I have, this has never happened. The Iraqi citizens always want US dollars, preferred over Iraqi dinar because the Iraq dinar never had as much value as the US dollar...The fact they are now exchanging their US dollars for Iraqi dinar is a very telling sign. It means there is an organic and grassroots event happening in the country of Iraq. To me it looks like it is a precursor to some type of other major significant event happening, that we are all hoping and waiting for.

7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Even if you don't know how to protect your wealth. Even if you don't know what asset protection structures to use, the most important thing you could do the moment the revaluation is announced is at least have some type of game plan when you go to the bank. Know what questions you're going to ask. Make sure you know how to negotiate the rate, which you just have to ask a few question to do that. Make sure you're meeting with the right people at the bank. You're not just going to be dealing with a teller...There's a protocol you're going to want to follow to maximize what you walk away with because we're talking possibly, not just thousands, not just tens of thousands, it could be hundreds of thousands if not million of dollars in the long term if you structure things...upfront.
7-6-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Boy oh boy these are exciting times. We are seeing some of the most amazing steps of the monetary reform. We're witnessing history. Epic, epic epic histories that will be forever remembered...
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Why do you feel the rate has to change before Prime Minister Zaidi meets with DJT?" He's going there with 100 businessmen for business. You can't go there with business at a currency value of 1310. There's your basic answer. There's a lot more to it than that though.
7-6-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence In 2025 the prime minister's financial advisor placed Iraq's untapped mineral and energy wealth at $16 trillion ranking the country 9th globally for natural resource wealth...Oil reserves 5th largest in the world, the largest sulfur reserves, phosphate 2nd only to Morocco, plus gas, copper and rare earth occurrences still under explored.

7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The anti-corruption push, the digital rollout, institutional alignment and non-oil revenues are all moving in the same direction. This creates...conditions for a prudent step on the currency side with the gatekeepers and the CBI when they decide the moment is right.
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Article: "Iraqi PM faces backlash from political parties over his bold anti-corruption drive" Many people are saying the new Iraqi Prime Minister is dancing to the music of the United States...The United States has been withholding Iraq's cash since the end of February... When the US is holding Iraq's cash hostage...you tend to do what the US is recommending, especially when you know in your heart that is the best thing for your country. We are hoping the Iraqi people will continue to support the Iraqi Prime Minister.
7-6-2026 Boot-On-The-Ground Guru Omar Zaidi comes out and he tells us Qaani gets permanent banned from Iraq. Iraq declared Iran's Quds Force Commander persona non grata. That's the same position Soleimani held...This is the first time in modern Iraqi history that they've slapped a full diplomatic ban on Iran's top military operator.
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Iraq is aggressively signing multi-billion dollar energy, infrastructure and trade deals with global conglomerates and Western powers. International corporations do not invest billions into a country unless they expect a stable, highly valuable local currency to facilitate trade...Just as Kuwait needed a high valued dinar to fund its reconstruction, Iraq requires a revalued or reinstated economically viable currency to fully integrate into the global financial system and move away from a cash reliant dollarized economy...
7-6-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 We are still waiting for the formation of [Zaidi's] government, whether it's before or after Zaidi goes to see Trump...We are also focused to see the Iraqi dinar start to gain in value after the 10th. It'll be a slow climb, very slowly every day.
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff I wouldn't worry about referencing Forex [with the bank when the rate change happens]. Just call your bank and ask them when they'll be ready. They'll be ready roughly 3 days after the rate changes, approximately around a Wednesday. Because the rate will change on what is their Sunday morning. That's just how that works.
7-6-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Basra Oil Company signed Halliburton to a 5-year deal on the Bin Omar and Sindbad fields, targeting up to 250,000 more barrels a day and handing upstream work to American hands instead of Chinese, Russian and European firms. A US energy major signing days before al-Zaidi boards the plane is a signal the White House will read.

7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen You should be using this time right now to start preparing, start thinking about banks you want to go to, start getting your plans laid out because if it does happen in the next few weeks or next month or next few months you want to be prepared.
7-6-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 I don't care if it's a month or 2 months or even 3 months away. It's already here IMO and that's why it's being explained and laid out to you [Iraqi citizens]. If it was not here, you wouldn't hear a single word about this on your media...Instead they would continue to keep you in the dark and they would never answer your questions. You have the answers to every question that you sent to the CBI. They've answered all of them concerning your monetary reform. Right now it does exist. It is alive now.

That would really burst the bubble of all of us investors." We were told a decade ago these notes we have outside would be collected and used in inter-banking transfers for very large purchases and would remain valid notes...We will go to the bank and exchange for the currency of our country. The next FOREX rate will apply. I.E. 25,000 note x $4.80 = $120,000 USD @ a rate for US as $4.80 per dinar. Why do you think they are waiting so long for FOREX? There is a plan for the middle east and they will use the IRAQI dinar as a hinge Pin for the other currencies in the middle east. There will be a new basket of currencies. Now if they were going to just do what you said why would they be waiting so long? Why not just do it now, as there is plenty of value now to go 1:1 with the US dollar?
7-6-2026 Intel Guru Bruce We were under the understanding that we would have this by or before the 4th of July... but the latest information we're getting is telling us that Tier 4b that's us, the Internet Group, should be looking for our notifications...by text or email...between the fifth and the eighth...how to call and set your appointments, that should be in a text message or in an email, or both...also to have start exchanging within that period of time...That's what we've heard from very, very high up...I know based on where we are now that things are moving in the right direction for us...
7-6-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Boy oh boy these are exciting times. We are seeing some of the most amazing steps of the monetary reform. We're witnessing history. Epic, epic epic histories that will be forever remembered...
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Why do you feel the rate has to change before Prime Minister Zaidi meets with DJT?" He's going there with 100 businessmen for business. You can't go there with business at a currency value of 1310. There's your basic answer. There's a lot more to it than that though.
7-6-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence In 2025 the prime minister's financial advisor placed Iraq's untapped mineral and energy wealth at $16 trillion ranking the country 9th globally for natural resource wealth...Oil reserves 5th largest in the world, the largest sulfur reserves, phosphate 2nd only to Morocco, plus gas, copper and rare earth occurrences still under explored. Pre-event planning for post event deployment - prepare accordingly.
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "The Prime Minister told an American journalist: American companies will be given priority in investment" Quote: "500,000 barrels per day of Iraqi oil will go toward replenishing the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). He added, Iraq will consider suspending its OPEC membership if it is prevented from producing according to its capacity,"
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The anti-corruption push, the digital rollout, institutional alignment and non-oil revenues are all moving in the same direction. This creates...conditions for a prudent step on the currency side with the gatekeepers and the CBI when they decide the moment is right.
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Article: "Iraqi PM faces backlash from political parties over his bold anti-corruption drive" Many people are saying the new Iraqi Prime Minister is dancing to the music of the United States...The United States has been withholding Iraq's cash since the end of February... When the US is holding Iraq's cash hostage...you tend to do what the US is recommending, especially when you know in your heart that is the best thing for your country. We are hoping the Iraqi people will continue to support the Iraqi Prime Minister.
7-6-2026 Boot-On-The-Ground Guru Omar Zaidi comes out and he tells us Qaani gets permanent banned from Iraq. Iraq declared Iran's Quds Force Commander persona non grata. That's the same position Soleimani held...This is the first time in modern Iraqi history that they've slapped a full diplomatic ban on Iran's top military operator.
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Iraq is aggressively signing multi-billion dollar energy, infrastructure and trade deals with global conglomerates and Western powers. International corporations do not invest billions into a country unless they expect a stable, highly valuable local currency to facilitate trade...Just as Kuwait needed a high valued dinar to fund its reconstruction, Iraq requires a revalued or reinstated economically viable currency to fully integrate into the global financial system and move away from a cash reliant dollarized economy...
7-6-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 We are still waiting for the formation of [Zaidi's] government, whether it's before or after Zaidi goes to see Trump...We are also focused to see the Iraqi dinar start to gain in value after the 10th. It'll be a slow climb, very slowly every day.
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff I wouldn't worry about referencing Forex [with the bank when the rate change happens]. Just call your bank and ask them when they'll be ready. They'll be ready roughly 3 days after the rate changes, approximately around a Wednesday. Because the rate will change on what is their Sunday morning. That's just how that works.
7-6-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Basra Oil Company signed Halliburton to a 5-year deal on the Bin Omar and Sindbad fields, targeting up to 250,000 more barrels a day and handing upstream work to American hands instead of Chinese, Russian and European firms. A US energy major signing days before al-Zaidi boards the plane is a signal the White House will read.
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "French report: Baghdad informs Tehran that Qaani is considered persona non grata" Quote: "Radio Monte Carlo reported , in a report followed by (Al-Mada), that the Iraqi authorities officially informed Iran that Quds Force commander Ismail Qaani is considered persona non grata on Iraqi soil...These measures come ahead of Prime Minister Ali Faleh al-Zaidi’s anticipated visit to Washington"
7-6-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen You should be using this time right now to start preparing, start thinking about banks you want to go to, start getting your plans laid out because if it does happen in the next few weeks or next month or next few months you want to be prepared.
7-6-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 I don't care if it's a month or 2 months or even 3 months away. It's already here IMO and that's why it's being explained and laid out to you [Iraqi citizens]. If it was not here, you wouldn't hear a single word about this on your media...Instead they would continue to keep you in the dark and they would never answer your questions. You have the answers to every question that you sent to the CBI. They've answered all of them concerning your monetary reform. Right now it does exist. It is alive now. But I will admit it is a process and we are about to see it unfold.

7-5-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 The thing that happened today is the Iraqi citizens know the truth about the monetary reform.

Their massive asset pool means the current exchange rate, which is 1310 per US dollar is an artificially depressed placeholder.

7-5-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat I believe we are closer than ever for the dinar to get reinstated. But first things first...certain laws in Iraq must be passed. Certainly, reviving the economy to at least 45%-50% non-oil revenues could make a huge difference for Iraq and the IMF.

In the past when they phased out the 50 dinar note, they gave 90 days on that to turn the old notes in. And back in 2003 when they released the new notes, they gave a 90-day period to turn in the old Saddam notes and get the brand new notes that we have today.
7-3-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen A lot of us aren't going to have to pay any fees. That's what I believe based on how much dinar you hold. Because you have leverage with your bank. A bank is a business. They make money by lending out your money. That's what it comes down to...
7-3-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 This is a process. The process should show us the formation of the government very very soon, hopefully by the 5th. Then by the 10th we're going to look at the exchange rate very closely hour by hour, day by day to see what is happening in [the next] two months because if we have a slight increase in your currency then that is the indication that you're on your way because the supply and demand...will cause a friction. The financial friction...is going to drive the rate from 1300...to 1 to 1 with the American dollar. Then they can go into an International basket in a float to reach the real effective exchange rate.
7-3-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man What we're seeing is real change. It's been building. It's been building out better than I've ever seen in my life in the dinar...I still talk about what I believe in because I know what I own. It's building out in our favor.
7-3-2026 Boot-On-The-Ground Guru Omar Prime Minister's legal advisor...said the looted funds have exceeded $2 trillion and public trials are anticipated for the corrupt defendants...They are telling us [$2 trillion] equals 3 quadrillion Iraqi dinars to date have been stolen.
7-3-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram You are not going to believe what the news is saying...Two trillion dollars gone. What you are about to hear is almost impossible to believe. An Iraqi government legal advisor has publicly claimed more than 2 trillion US dollars has been stolen from Iraq since 2003...Investigators are carrying out daily raids and arrests...Suspects have confessed, leading authorities to more people. The investigation reportedly includes current and former senior government officials and members of parliament...Some suspects own dozens of properties and accumulated wealth that investigators say cannot be explained. Public corruption trials are expected to follow. If these allegations prove true, this could become one of the largest corruption scandals in modern history...

7-3-2026 Guest Guru Ariel The recent technical agreement between Baghdad and the KRG on ASYCUDA (Automated System for Customs Data) is a big quiet win for the sovereignty play...As of mid-2026, it’s unifying customs across federal and Kurdish borders, automating declarations, cutting smuggling windows, and forcing electronic payments...The full rollout across border crossings is accelerating.

7-3-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat It is going to happen and it is in the plan for Iraq and part of the bigger RESET picture. These larger notes we hold are going to stay legal tender and used for inter-banking transactions of large amounts, when cash is needed. The CBI told us this many times.

7-2-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Back in 1991 Kuwait's economy was wrecked, oil fields on fire, infrastructure ruined yet the Kuwaiti dinar moved from about 30 cents to roughly $3.47 during the conflict while the country was still smoldering...People insist currency rates do not move like that then go quiet when you mention Kuwait. History records the mechanism plainly for anyone who looks.
7-2-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Community Comment: "The country [of Iraq] doesn't have OFAC sanctions." You're incorrect...You can't go to the traditional banks like Wells Fargo and none of them to exchange dinar. And you know what that tells you? That tells you Iraq is under OFAC sanctions against them. Otherwise our traditional banks would be exchanging the dinar.

7-2-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen You got to be prepared. Those who prepare are going to be in a much better position and you are going to be wealthy long term...Most people are going to be rich for a few years and then [broke]. They didn't invest wisely, they didn't protect their assets properly, they didn't know how to steward that money...Most people probably have 500,000 dinar or more...Every dollar counts...Be wise. Be proactive...have a plan in place because it's going to take a lot of that stress, a lot of that anxiety off. I promise you, when the dinar revaluation happens, you're not going to be running around with your hair on fire saying, 'Oh my gosh, what do I do now?' That excitement of the revaluation is going to turn very quickly into stress and fear...
7-2-2026 Intel Guru Guy You're not going to be going up...and talking to a bank teller. You're going go to the branch manager and ask for the wealth manager that covers the geographic area where you are, your location. Usually banks assign a wealth manager to cover 5, 6 or 10 branches in a regional area. You want to talk to the wealth manager. You're going to go to him and...tell them 'I don't want to pay any transaction fee. I just want you to make profit on the spread.' The spread is the difference between what the central bank says the rate is and what Citibank says or Chase or Wells Fargo, whoever it is.
7-2-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence You do not jail your own parliament, count the cash on a public ledger, and fly to the White House in the same fortnight by accident. Every thread points at one week. Parliament returns... the last cabinet seats are filled by July 5, and a cleaned government flies to Washington right behind them. The meeting is what finally moves the oil revenue law buried for 19 years, and the budget that follows is the one that can let the dinar move toward what it has always been worth.
7-2-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Why is it favorable for Iraq to set the rate above Kuwait?" It's not that it's favorable...You've got to study history sometimes. If historically Iraq's always been above Kuwait by a small amount...Kuwait today is around $3.26 and it's probably going to be a little bit above there. That's a fair and reasonable guess...The country of Iraq has more wealth...minerals...resources and a whole lot more oil than Kuwait does. That's why they're worth more money than Kuwait...They always were historically.
7-2-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 What is Iraq's banking reform? ...do you think it's to introduce new coins? Do you think it's to introduce a new exchange rate? I think the banking reform is to add value to their currency before they can do anything else. Why come out with coins, why come out with lower notes, when you don't have a new rate for them? Why come out with propaganda information, knowledge about monetary reform of many other countries around them?

7-2-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff It cannot be more than a tight narrow managed float...It won't float when the rate changes because their budgets are calculated off the currency value. If it had a significant float and the currency has a significant value change, that means the budget is completely miscalculated. So every time the rate changes, they would have to redraft and amend the budget's figures. They're not going to do that. That's why it's a narrow managed float in a tight window.

We're all kinds of crazy in so many ways from this but you know what? When it's done, we're the ones that get a laugh at them.
7-1-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence You have been told for years the dinar is a scam. A dead currency in a broken country.

7-1-2026 Guest Guru Ariel Here Is What You Need To Know... Once redenomination happens (removing the three zeros) and the currency gains real usability, the path to floating on international forex platforms becomes viable. This isn’t about wild volatility or casino-style trading. It’s about controlled, monitored entry into global exchange mechanisms where supply, demand, and real economic fundamentals drive value instead of fixed auctions and political whims.

A cleaned government flies to Washington mid-July. The reprice everyone is waiting on sits at the end of that sequence...Watch what Iraq does before Washington...
7-1-2026 Guest Guru Ariel Here Is What You Need To Know... Once redenomination happens (removing the three zeros) and the currency gains real usability, the path to floating on international forex platforms becomes viable. This isn’t about wild volatility or casino-style trading. It’s about controlled, monitored entry into global exchange mechanisms where supply, demand, and real economic fundamentals drive value instead of fixed auctions and political whims.
7-1-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat ...my CBI contact has already told me once the SECURITY situation is taken care of, her committee has plans to roll out the lower denominations and move ahead again...the good news is they are still planning it and always moving ahead...There is a said deadline to disarm ALL the militias and arrest or deport the factions. This deadline is September 2026. Will it take this long? What we do know for a FACT is al-Zaidi is expected to present his plan to President Trump during his visit to Washington in mid-July.
6-30-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen We're not giving dates. We're not giving rates. I have no idea when the revaluation is going to happen, if it's going to happen at all. But I believe it's not a matter of if but when. And I believe we all have a front row seat to seeing all of these dominoes fall into place.

6-30-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The protective messaging and careful language we've been seeing around exchange rate issues have served to manage expectations while the underlying architecture is strengthened. The "hush" has not meant inaction. They quietly do things behind the scenes. It's not meant for every single person. You have to be able to pay attention and grasp the totality of what those things mean...I think we're going to be pretty darn close to being what reality is...The hush has meant focused preparation away from public noise. They don't need to tell everybody everything to bring on chaos, get people over- reactive.
6-30-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 I'm still waiting for the CBI to give up the new exchange rate so we can see it on July 1st. What if the CBI doesn't give the new exchange rate on July 1st? Does that mean it's the end of the world? Does that mean we are all screwed? Does that mean there is no exchange rate coming? Does that mean there is no value going to be added to the Iraq dinar? No...It is a process...You can't have everything so acute. I feel fantastic. I feel great about where we're at.

He goes, no, we don't at this branch. We might need to send it off. And I go, no, no, no, no, no. You don't send your money, your dinar anywhere.

6-30-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Trump could not do any more than Bill Clinton did. Remember when Kuwait reinstated, that's how Bill Clinton came into his surplus of revenue. That's the most that Bill Clinton was allowed to legally tell you. Trump cannot come out saying that he made or helped Iraq revalue the currency. He can't...The most that Trump can do is play the Bill Clinton card and say he went from a budget deficit to a surplus. That's the most that Trump can say.

6-30-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen When you look at all the corruption and all of these government officials that were arrested in the last 24 hours it makes sense as to why nothing ever happened over the last 23 years. Because they were just taking money. Why would they want this scheme to end? They're taking money off the top. I read a report this morning. So far they have confiscated 900 billion dinar. Almost 1 trillion dinar...That is a lot of money. I'm looking at all the articles coming out and all the photos of...all the cash. I'm like why would all these government officials be hoarding billions of dinar?... Maybe they knew something was coming down the line where they were getting ready for it too.
6-30-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff There have been in the past 10 years one or two points where they've been close to revaluing but didn't. The reason why they couldn't?

6-29-2026 Guest Guru Terrence [Central Bank/International Bank Regulator] I think in the coming years, once the revaluation takes place, you're going to see a lot of surprising things coming to Iraq. As many investors understand, the time to invest is not when everyone's euphoric saying, 'Oh, wow, look at this. Let's get in.' No, the time to get in is when no one's really talking about it. I would say from an investment perspective you're probably quietly seeing the capital moving into the country now and it all starts with the banking system. The new prime minister is a former banker. Once he got confirmed as prime minister one of the first things he did was meet with the CBI.

6-28-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen There's been so much corruption and so much evil that has happened to the poor people in Iraq and Iran. A lot of that is being uprooted through bad actors and bad leadership. We're seeing it play out before our very eyes. Am I saying this is the very end of it, that they got all the bad guys, no. I'm sure this is going to be an ongoing thing even after the dinar revalues. You're never going to get 100% of the bad guys but this is a really important part and instills fear in the bad actors that are thinking about doing something or have already done something and might have been willing to do more. It's a new day for Iraq...Exciting times are ahead.
6-28-2026 Newshound Guru Pimpy If Iraq leaves OPEC it allows them to have more money for all the projects they're doing because they're not limited by OPEC.

The more money they can use in their budgets and they're not screwed every time there's a fluctuation in the market...Leaving OPEC would be good for Iraq...This will allow them to really grow their economy.

One Middle East country has already decided to leave OPEC and Iraq threatening to leave OPEC or even thinking about leaving OPEC is a dangerous situation IMO. OPEC, although it may or may not be a cartel...has protected the Middle East and their resources for decades...The thought of Iraq leaving OPEC frightens me. Yes, it could mean a lot more oil revenue, but that's not going to help the currency adjustment situation. The IMF and the World Bank has already told Iraq they need strong streams of revenue outside of the oil industry before they can be considered to be reliable, stable economy.

6-28-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff A nation is not fully sovereign while under restrictions and US sanctions. One of the major files by PM Z when he goes to Washington is sovereignty - No foreign forces in Iraq and no weapons for the factions. You don't have sovereignty as a nation if you're still under restrictions and sanctions of a foreign country such as the US. He's going there to discuss Iraq sovereignty mid July 15th...That's one of the reason I keep telling you the rate has to change before Iraq will go to the United States Mid July and meet with the Trump administration. The rate has to change before Iraq can be fully 100% sovereign nation without restrictions and sanctions from the United States.

6-28-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen There's been so much corruption and so much evil that has happened to the poor people in Iraq and Iran. A lot of that is being uprooted through bad actors and bad leadership. We're seeing it play out before our very eyes. Am I saying this is the very end of it, that they got all the bad guys, no. I'm sure this is going to be an ongoing thing even after the dinar revalues. You're never going to get 100% of the bad guys but this is a really important part and instills fear in the bad actors that are thinking about doing something or have already done something and might have been willing to do more.

6-26-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The worst money decisions happen in the first 48 hours.

The published playbook is plain, pause and park the funds, assemble a team, CPA first, then estate attorney, then a fee only advisor who works for you. Protect with insurance and an estate plan. Deploy slowly. None of it is advice. It is what every major wealth manager publishes openly...
6-26-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff There's no "tiers" in this. I've heard people talk about tiers. That's a bunch of horse crap.

6-26-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Iranian leaders or government officials who might have Iraq dinars, imagine they try to cash in on this when it does happen....The fact that Iraq is going after a lot of these bad actors is only positive for us. There has been so much corruption in the country of Iraq through Iranian proxies that have been essentially controlling the country of Iraq for the last 23 years...Corruption being uprooted had to happen to get us to the point we are today. The revaluation could not have happened back in 2012 or 2015 or 2020. I know there were a few times where I was hopeful it was going to go down, but there was so much that is being uncovered that we didn't even know was taking place...I believe our time is coming very very soon.
6-26-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The official rate sits at 1,300 to the dollar while the street trades nearer 1,450, and the central bank has denied a rate change for the second time this month.

6-26-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat During this Covid crisis time the CBI devaluated the local currency by more than 20 percent, the biggest devaluation since 2003, adjusting the ex-change rate from IQD 1182/USD to IQD 1450. After the crisis and oil was flowing again it ‘revalued’ back to 1320/USD but it never regained its original pre-crisis value of 1182... these changes in the dinar are NOT structural banking reasons for devaluation but local, short term financial reasons due to the drop of oil exports. This comes from too much of reliance on oil to pay Iraqi’s bills. When oil flow stops or slows down Iraq hurts. So, we all know about al-Zaidi’s plan to change all this and have the economy generating at least 45%-50% non-oil revenues to protect itself in the future from these oil crises. ...The most intriguing point in Al-Zaidi’s plan concerns the exchange rate...It is not yet going to FOREX.

Fidelity, UBS and Finra all say the same thing, the worst financial decisions after sudden wealth are made in the first 48 hours.

Deploy slowly. None of it is advice. It is what every major wealth manager publishes openly...
6-26-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff There's no "tiers" in this. I've heard people talk about tiers. That's a bunch of horse crap. If there were going to be tiers in this, there would be more than one rate change. You would need more than one rate change to accommodate tiers. There's one rate change. There's no tiers period. When the rate changes, I don't care who you are, I don't care if you're elite...federal government or...Joe Blow down at the civilian level, that's when we all exchange, when the rate changes one time.

6-26-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Iranian leaders or government officials who might have Iraq dinars, imagine they try to cash in on this when it does happen....The fact that Iraq is going after a lot of these bad actors is only positive for us. There has been so much corruption in the country of Iraq through Iranian proxies that have been essentially controlling the country of Iraq for the last 23 years...Corruption being uprooted had to happen to get us to the point we are today. The revaluation could not have happened back in 2012 or 2015 or 2020. I know there were a few times where I was hopeful it was going to go down, but there was so much that is being uncovered that we didn't even know was taking place...I believe our time is coming very very soon.
6-26-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The official rate sits at 1,300 to the dollar while the street trades nearer 1,450, and the central bank has denied a rate change for the second time this month.

6-25-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence When a currency like the dinar finally reprices, the gain goes to the people who were already positioned before the announcement. The ones who wait for the headline are too late. Holding dinars today is a bet that Iraq is near the front of that line, and on Wednesday that line looked shorter than it has ever looked.

6-24-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen A big question I hear all the time is, does the US Treasury own dinar? ...Trump specially said we are holding $30 billion of their money right now. Does that mean we are holding that money in US dollars or are we holding actual Iraqi dinars? ...But it's been known we are holding a substantial amount of Iraq's reserves in our bank in US dollars. The dinar topic, that's up for debate...You have to decide is it plausible that the US Treasury would hold substantial amounts of Iraqi dinar given the fact that we put together all of these plans strategically to bring Iraq to the forefront of the world economy. I would argue that yes, it makes logical sense. However no one can 100% confirm that the US Treasury holds physical dinar and no one can 100% deny the US Treasury holds physical dinars.
6-24-2026 Boots-On-The-Ground Guru Omar When Kuwait revalued, right before they revalued they passed a law with the central bank that all of the stolen currency it would be non-validated. It would be null and void which helps to shrink the currency count they had back then out by a big margins. Now look at what's going on inside of Iraq...They are catching and confiscating billions of stolen dinars. If Iraq does the same thing like Kuwait did they could make all this money that was stolen non-validated, null and void and that would help shrink the note count. We wouldn't have currency inflation...
6-24-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Let's say you have a 25k note before the rate changes. A 25k note can buy one bag of groceries. After the rate changes, a 25 note will buy the same exact bag of groceries...The purchasing power the currency had before the rate changes will have the exact same purchasing power after the rate changes with smaller notes. The impact of it is outside the country, the investors like you and I because a 25,000 note...if the rate is $3, then the value would be $75,000 and a 25 note would be $75.
6-24-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Iraq gets its volume back and watches the price fall out from under it. The barrels are moving again. They are just worth less...So that is what he is carrying to Washington...A country burning its reserves to stretch a weak currency over a swollen payroll...The one lever that actually changes the arithmetic is the worth of the dinar itself: a currency re-anchored to the gold and the oil Iraq genuinely owns...And no nation reprices its currency without a nod from the people who run the system...Cut spending, borrow more, drill harder, or change what the dinar is worth. The first three are already failing. And the fourth was never Baghdad's to decide alone, which is what the trip to Washington is really for. [Post 2 of 2]
6-24-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Al-Zaidi flying to Washington...Why he is really going...? Iraq is not a poor country. It sits on one of the largest oil reserves on earth and holds around $90 billion in gold and hard currency, a war chest most nations would envy. And yet it cannot pay its own bills. A country is not its savings account. It is its cash flow. And Iraq's cash flow is broken. More than 90% of what the state earns comes from a single barrel of oil, and at today's prices that no longer stretches to cover the bills. Salaries and pensions alone eat more than 60% of the budget... Every month the government reaches into that $90 billion and pulls out a few billion more...The reserves slid from nearly $100 billion in March to around $90 billion now...A rich country is quietly eating its savings to pay its wages...Washington cleared Iran to sell its own oil openly again, in dollars, for the first time since 2018, dumping a wave of stranded barrels onto the market. The price has been sliding ever since... [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

It would be null and void which helps to shrink the currency count they had back then out by a big margins. Now look at what's going on inside of Iraq...They are catching and confiscating billions of stolen dinars. If Iraq does the same thing like Kuwait did they could make all this money that was stolen non-validated, null and void and that would help shrink the note count. We wouldn't have currency inflation...
6-24-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Let's say you have a 25k note before the rate changes. A 25k note can buy one bag of groceries. After the rate changes, a 25 note will buy the same exact bag of groceries...The purchasing power the currency had before the rate changes will have the exact same purchasing power after the rate changes with smaller notes. The impact of it is outside the country, the investors like you and I because a 25,000 note...if the rate is $3, then the value would be $75,000 and a 25 note would be $75.
6-24-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Iraq gets its volume back and watches the price fall out from under it. The barrels are moving again. They are just worth less...So that is what he is carrying to Washington...A country burning its reserves to stretch a weak currency over a swollen payroll...The one lever that actually changes the arithmetic is the worth of the dinar itself: a currency re-anchored to the gold and the oil Iraq genuinely owns...And no nation reprices its currency without a nod from the people who run the system...Cut spending, borrow more, drill harder, or change what the dinar is worth. The first three are already failing. And the fourth was never Baghdad's to decide alone, which is what the trip to Washington is really for. [Post 2 of 2]
6-24-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Al-Zaidi flying to Washington...Why he is really going...? Iraq is not a poor country. It sits on one of the largest oil reserves on earth and holds around $90 billion in gold and hard currency, a war chest most nations would envy. And yet it cannot pay its own bills. A country is not its savings account. It is its cash flow. And Iraq's cash flow is broken. More than 90% of what the state earns comes from a single barrel of oil, and at today's prices that no longer stretches to cover the bills. Salaries and pensions alone eat more than 60% of the budget... Every month the government reaches into that $90 billion and pulls out a few billion more...The reserves slid from nearly $100 billion in March to around $90 billion now...A rich country is quietly eating its savings to pay its wages...Washington cleared Iran to sell its own oil openly again, in dollars, for the first time since 2018, dumping a wave of stranded barrels onto the market. The price has been sliding ever since... [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

6-23-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Two years ago if you ran a bank in Iraq and wanted to move a single dollar to New York you mostly could not. No western bank would clear it. The country was a compliance risk...This weekend it began to turn. Iraq's prime minister walked into the CBI and handed it to the man who used to run the country's anti-money laundering office. Just two days before the Global Financial Watchdog handed Baghdad a written list of nine fixes on a deadline. Clean the books. Trace every owner. Open the doors. Do that and the system lets Baghdad back in. This is not a theory. Eight months ago, Nigeria and South Africa did exactly this. They worked their way off the same watchlist. Almost overnight the correspondent banks came back.

6-22-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Alaq is not being fired. He's being re-positioned. Article quote: "Alaq's efforts during his tenure were praised." Which means he did a damn good job because he prepared for the rate change. He wasn't fired. It's how they're juggling personnel preparing, getting preparation steps done, to completely prepare for the rate change right in front of all of our faces...They're going to get rid of Saleh because he's older than dirt. They're going to put Alaq in there [economic advisor] because they praised his tenure ...while he was the central bank governor...You've got Trump Jr...the prime minister... putting the correct people in the correct spots.
6-22-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Iraq put its central bank in the hands of the man who used to police its dirty money...Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi presided over the formal handover at the Central Bank of Iraq. The new governor spent his career inside the anti-money-laundering office. Two days earlier, the Financial Action Task Force adopted a 9-point action plan with Iraq, a written list of fixes on a deadline, from a rule book for crypto firms to tracing every account to a real owner...Getting off the list is the way back into the dollar, and Iraq just stepped onto that path.

Yes, a head start on this new undertaking for Iraq, which I believe is the direct path to investors of finally realizing what we have been waiting for – the reinstatement back to FOREX. But, as I said they must be able to pull this off (and do it not just talk about it). My CBI contact is very excited about this new undertaking and believes strongly in al-Zaidi...
6-22-2026 Guest Guru Judy Byington It’s my personal opinion based on [several recent events] that we could anticipate Tier4b (us, the Internet Group) being notified to set exchange appointments sometime between Mon. June 22 and Sun. June 28.

They're not generally in a hurry to do anything. But once things get approved, things could actually move very rapidly...The last several years, the pace at which they've been doing things have really been quite impressive... Having watched this for the past two years and then seeing within the last year how quickly things have started to move, I'm excited. I'm hopeful.

6-21-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They can't tell you if they plan to increase [the dinar exchange rate]. They've already revealed to us the new prim minister is going to Washington with 100 businessmen to prepare for the implementation of the strategic framework agreement between Iraq and the United States. That requires Iraq to have a tradable currency. You don't take 100 businessmen to discuss implementing business with the United States at a currency value of 1310 under US sanctions. You don't do that. Iraq needs to go there with a convertible tradable currency that has real regional value to it.

6-20-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff One of our goals is when we go to exchange our dinar we want to reduce our fees that we have to pay at the exchange.

I bank with Wells Fargo...I'm going to go specifically to their private bank...With the private bank you need a minimum of $10 million to get in...I told my guy I will exchange with you...I want you to give me face value for the currency. Remove all fees. He told me, I got you. The reason why he wants to do that, his group in the private bank side will make more money off of investing my money than charging me 1% fee to do an exchange.

very quick...

6-19-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Security issues...we see in Iraq. It's very difficult for foreign currency to come in. People are not going to invest when they see very clearly they could get kicked out of the country, shot or whatever else while they're in the country. So the US is laying down requirements that must be adhered to within a time frame...The US... delivered a clear warning to Iraq that major sanctions could or would be imposed if Iraq does not implement a series of political, economic and security reforms...The warning followed a high-level meeting in Baghdad between US envoy Tom Barrack and Iraqi Prime Minister Al-Zaidi...
6-19-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Iraq handed its central bank to a man who spent his career chasing dirty money. Its anti-fraud chief now sits on top of the vault. The same day, the US Treasury published a list of bank channels running through Iraq and sanctioned the people moving cash through them, one government scrubbing its own books, the other naming the people who
dirtied them...You do not hand the keys to the money to a fraud investigator unless the next job on the list is counting that money in the open...
6-19-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] OMAR: On the television they announced to us the United States of America is going to resume physical dollar cash flows into Iraq. FRANK: We stopped it because they were funneling money into Iraq. They can't anymore...And on this day they tell you no Alaq? ...Maliki and Alaq had ties with Iran and neither one of them are around anymore...The constipation is gone for the monetary reform.
6-19-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Did any of us know today that the central bank governor was going to get replaced? Hell no, we didn't. I've been saying for quite a while the news is all scripted. They know exactly what they're going to do, when they're going to do it and it will catch all of us by surprise. The rate change won't catch me by surprise. It might catch you by surprise, not I. I know exactly what I'm looking for to know when the rate's going to change...The very critical piece we need to see to identify that date will be the completion of the cabinet. Once they complete the cabinet, it's game over. Rate will change
very quick...

This comes after nearly two days of long and complex discussions held by the Iraqi Prime Minister with Trump's envoy in Baghdad, Tom Barrack."

Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi and U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Iraq Tom Barrack welcomed the approval of Starlink’s operating license." Iraq’s currency shift isn’t a lottery ticket. It’s a structural realignment. The Central Bank has been pushing full government cashless operations by early July... Starlink provides the connectivity layer that turns those policy papers into operational reality...This directly supports the digital leap...moving trillions through electronic systems...building the infrastructure for any redenomination or rate adjustment.

6-16-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram There are spiritual...religious...internal...rooted...global reasons that the Iraqi dinar has not adjusted. We are dealing with ancient history here. Yes, we're having to deal with banks reforming and being able to talk internationally to other banks. We're dealing with Iraq coming up to standards...Yes we're dealing with all that. That can be done in a very, very, very short period of time based upon what we are learning about the abilities of artificial intelligence...
6-16-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen The current central bank governor is butting heads with the new prime minister because the new prime minister Zaidi is wanting to increase the purchasing power of the Iraqi dinar and the current central bank governor was threatening to resign...It seems like they are at odds.

6-16-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Banking reform...is waiting for the rate to change...Attracting investment is waiting for the rate to change...The private sector must play a larger role, again, need the rate to change for that. Everything in Iraq right now is waiting for the rate to change. That's why it looks like absolutely nothing in Iraq has happened in this month of June or since the new PM has come in. The new PM cannot do anything till the rate changes.
6-16-2026 Guest Guru Terrence [Central Bank/International Bank Regulator] I assembled this knowledge for him. He was trying to bid for a due diligence contract to identify the gaps that were in the CBI's governance framework which will be used to bring the banking system into compliance...He told me the United States Treasury had given the Central Bank of Iraq a mandate to get your house in order...From what I understood, this was real...Once I started looking at what they were trying to build out and then also looking at the natural resources in the country...If you look at the valuation of the minerals that are in the ground, then the asset value, the price of the Iraqi dinar just doesn't make any sense at all. It's drastically undervalued. But with the banking system being reformed, first you lay the pipes, you learn the rail, then you turn on the water. What I saw happening is all that groundwork, the rails and piping were being put in place. Once that's there it's just a decision when to turn on the spigot. That's what I saw happening...which I think makes the use case for revaluation hopefully in the near future. [Post 2 of 2]
6-16-2026 Guest Guru Terrence [Central Bank/International Bank Regulator] I got into the Iraqi dinar only in 2024...What I saw prior to getting into the dinar was the case for why I think the Iraqi dinar is really on the precipice of being able to revalue very soon. QUESTION: "What made you say okay this is something ...that has potential? Rafidain bank...I regulated them around 2017/2018. What I found was a bank that was dilapidated...It was almost like going back to prehistoric times...a general ledger system which was literally a notebook where debits and credits were entered...I had firsthand knowledge of...what dilapidated bank the central bank was in as well. Fast forward to now, there's been all kinds of great, incredible reforms that have been taking place in Iraq, particularly the banking system. Back in 2024 someone approached me about what would the central bank need to do in order to become compliant. [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

6-16-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence One day after the US and Iran put their names to a deal, Washington flies its closer into Baghdad. Special Presidential Envoy Tom Barrack walks the oil, the cabinet, and the revenue file toward a close. The real question is why Washington cares this much about one country in particular...Washington does not move this hard on a country it holds no stake in...Washington is there for the monetary result...A new financial system needs this last piece fixed, and whoever is holding the dinar when the rate flips gets paid.
6-16-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] ...We're assured to get a contract rate on the dinar if you go into the redemption center.

This new administration in Iraq, once fully seated, could make a huge difference and continue on with what al-Sudani accomplished and move the effort to the finish line. Remember that Al-Sudani told us that the dinar would be stronger than the dollar...
6-16-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "Al-Zaydi's advisor told Kurdistan 24: There are no plans to raise the dollar exchange rate" Quote: "An advisor to the Iraqi Prime Minister denied all reports circulating about the government's intention to raise the exchange rate of the dollar against the dinar to address the current financial crisis. He indicated that although the closure of the Strait of Hormuz has significantly harmed the country's revenues, the government will not resort to increasing the dollar's value."
6-16-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Over the weekend the war with Iran ended...On the day the sky fell quiet, Iraq turned both of its oil routes back on. That one move is the first domino. The money comes in, a cabinet gets seated to spend it, a budget gets written to hold it and the new rate has been sitting inside that budget the whole time...
6-16-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram There are spiritual...religious...internal...rooted...global reasons that the Iraqi dinar has not adjusted. We are dealing with ancient history here. Yes, we're having to deal with banks reforming and being able to talk internationally to other banks. We're dealing with Iraq coming up to standards...Yes we're dealing with all that. That can be done in a very, very, very short period of time based upon what we are learning about the abilities of artificial intelligence...
6-16-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen The current central bank governor is butting heads with the new prime minister because the new prime minister Zaidi is wanting to increase the purchasing power of the Iraqi dinar and the current central bank governor was threatening to resign...It seems like they are at odds. I personally believe we're going to see a replacement of the central bank governor most likely in the next 30 to 60 days. Maybe sooner.
6-16-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The United States-Iran agreement is a significant positive tailwind for the country of Iraq. It supports my outside the box thinking that things could move faster than most conservative timelines even suggest...We see all kinds of wonderful things taking place ...All of this taking place creates an environment that makes a managed REER in the coming weeks, months, even more feasible and well timed...
6-16-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Banking reform...is waiting for the rate to change...Attracting investment is waiting for the rate to change...The private sector must play a larger role, again, need the rate to change for that. Everything in Iraq right now is waiting for the rate to change. That's why it looks like absolutely nothing in Iraq has happened in this month of June or since the new PM has come in. The new PM cannot do anything till the rate changes.
6-16-2026 Guest Guru Terrence [Central Bank/International Bank Regulator] I assembled this knowledge for him. He was trying to bid for a due diligence contract to identify the gaps that were in the CBI's governance framework which will be used to bring the banking system into compliance...He told me the United States Treasury had given the Central Bank of Iraq a mandate to get your house in order...From what I understood, this was real...Once I started looking at what they were trying to build out and then also looking at the natural resources in the country...If you look at the valuation of the minerals that are in the ground, then the asset value, the price of the Iraqi dinar just doesn't make any sense at all. It's drastically undervalued. But with the banking system being reformed, first you lay the pipes, you learn the rail, then you turn on the water. What I saw happening is all that groundwork, the rails and piping were being put in place. Once that's there it's just a decision when to turn on the spigot. That's what I saw happening...which I think makes the use case for revaluation hopefully in the near future. [Post 2 of 2]
6-16-2026 Guest Guru Terrence [Central Bank/International Bank Regulator] I got into the Iraqi dinar only in 2024...What I saw prior to getting into the dinar was the case for why I think the Iraqi dinar is really on the precipice of being able to revalue very soon. QUESTION: "What made you say okay this is something ...that has potential? Rafidain bank...I regulated them around 2017/2018. What I found was a bank that was dilapidated...It was almost like going back to prehistoric times...a general ledger system which was literally a notebook where debits and credits were entered...I had firsthand knowledge of...what dilapidated bank the central bank was in as well. Fast forward to now, there's been all kinds of great, incredible reforms that have been taking place in Iraq, particularly the banking system. Back in 2024 someone approached me about what would the central bank need to do in order to become compliant. [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
6-16-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Z is coming to talk to Trump about investment opportunities. Anyone that thinks we want to invest at 1300 needs to get serious...He's coming to report with number and specific words. If he doesn't accomplish that, I feel bad for Iraq. I feel bad for us.

6-16-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence One day after the US and Iran put their names to a deal, Washington flies its closer into Baghdad. Special Presidential Envoy Tom Barrack walks the oil, the cabinet, and the revenue file toward a close. The real question is why Washington cares this much about one country in particular...Washington does not move this hard on a country it holds no stake in...Washington is there for the monetary result...A new financial system needs this last piece fixed, and whoever is holding the dinar when the rate flips gets paid.
6-16-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] ...We're assured to get a contract rate on the dinar if you go into the redemption center. It's not available in the banks...so redemption center is the ticket for...those that have dinar that want to get the highest available rate, which is what President Trump set up and contracted for Iraq...we did hear an approximate in country rate for Iraq on the Iraqi dinar...Iraq was going to revalue their currency again, and it was going to be just a little over six, so we'll see.

6-15-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They don't want you to know the rate change is coming forward. You got to think outside the box in this...and study deeper. Don't just read article. Think differently. Bring analytics in...They have more record lies and misleading information they've ever had...This period of June, Iraq is putting out more misleading information than they ever have... It's not coincidental. It's called timing. There's things they don't want you to know...They don't want you to know that the classified event of the rate change is occurring.
6-15-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Question: "IYO will the rate come out strong and float to a higher rate, then settle back down?" Frank: That is such a hard question to answer...It's an RI. It should be reinstated. But they're talking about coming-out 1 to 1. So maybe the initial step will be $1.00. That means if you got 1 million dinar, you got $1 million. That's not a bad rate of return. I'll take that ROI. What if it comes out as an RI and it's $3.22? That means every million you have is worth $3.22 million. I'm not going to horse around and wait for the float. I'm going to exchange everything...and invest it because I don't have much time to live. If you're 20...30...40...50...you can plan. I cannot. That's ok. I had my turn at bat. I had my turn. I've had a few grand slams in my life.
6-15-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The growing confidence in the gatekeepers have in the path Iraq is on right now.

6-15-2026 Newshound Guru Ross Iraq’s Meaningful Fiscal Reform Before the Revaluation: US is backing Iraq’s shift to program-based budgeting with World Bank support. A new independent investment vehicle backed by $100-150 billion in guarantees has been approved, separate from the traditional general budget. This new vehicle is meant to be cleaner and more focused on actual investment projects (infrastructure, development, etc.). It gives international partners and investors more confidence that their money won’t disappear into the old system Iraq economic reports. The U.S. support is also tied to progress on consolidating state control over weapons by September. Quiet but meaningful fiscal reform that is required before the revaluation of IQD. Release your FUD. (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt) We’re getting closer.
6-15-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat I am putting the banking, insurance and stock market (White Paper) reforms on the back burner for now. There is really not too much more they can do in this area without having the reinstatement. They are getting to the point where the currency reform implementation is going to get hotter and hotter and more pressure exerted as they move ahead. I firmly believe that this 45% of non-oil revenues is going to be the tipping point to the reinstatement.

6-13-2026 Newshound Thom Community comment: "Rumor has it they [Vietnam's VND] are tired of waiting for Iraq..." I don’t think they are as connected as people say they are...It looks to me like [the VND] is going to float. So a gradual rise like bitcoin would do. Not an over-nighter like we are expecting the dinar to do.
6-13-2026 Guest Guru Guy You do not want to end up like the typical lottery winner. They're broke within less than a year. You want to build. You want to take each step with a conscious effort...If the first thing you do is book a flight to Las Vegas, you've already lost the game. You have your 'left brain' list, which is your rational mind, a to-do list. And then have your 'right brain list', which is fall to your knees and give thanks. Think about the churches and charities you're going to donate to.

6-13-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The central bank of Iraq is never going to let the rate out. They can't. They can't even tell you the rate is going to increase ...They can tell you they have no intentions of devaluing the dinar, which they have and they could tell you if they are going to devalue the dinar. Those are the only two things they could tell you.

6-12-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Trump says the war with Iran is over. The blockade lifts on one signature. Before the war, Iraq moved 93 million barrels a month through Hormuz. April's count: 10 million. The oil money that fills Iraq's next budget is coming back. The dinar's new rate has to be written inside that budget. Only time will tell what that rate is...
6-12-2026 Newshound Guru Thom If you have been holding Vietnamese Dong and wondering whether the macro story is still intact, today's data answers that question. It is intact. It is accelerating...Vietnam's total import-export turnover for January through May hit $445.12 billion — up 25% year-over-year. Exports at $215.66 billion. The U.S. remains the top export destination at $69.6 billion... FTSE upgrade in 102 days. Every signal sourced. None of it rumor. The thesis is tracking.
6-12-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Whenever someone mentions redemption centers or 800 numbers or bond holders, I immediately just tune them out because I'm like, 'Okay, they've been sold a bag of goods'...either intentional...or ignorance or just silliness.
6-12-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man A more modern integrated Iraq is taking shape right in front of us. The time feels deliberate and coordinated supporting the idea that we are closer to major monetary steps including a managed REER with a credible sovereign dinar more so than many realize.
6-12-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 It must not fail with the citizens of Iraq. The monetary reform education is on a stampede.
6-12-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Article: "The Prime Minister will visit America next July" We don't have a hard date. It's literally just plain old 'the month of July', but the rate has to change before that...The Strategic Framework Agreement with the US, now they're talking about activating, meaning implementing, because Iraq's going to become international. That's more proof they're going to change the rate before he goes. They have to activate the Strategic Framework Agreement...

6-12-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Trump declares the war with Iran over. Oil drops below $87. Iraq's tankers are already loading. Tehran says no text is approved. One signature decides the week.
6-12-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat ...another hot topic in need of review. It is the printing of more dinars that was recently in the news. So, did or didn’t the CBI print more dinars? Article: "CBI DENIES PRINTING MONEY TO COMBAT FINANCIAL CRISIS" Quote: "The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) on Sunday denied claims that it had printed money to combat the current financial crisis." ...printing more hard currency is inflationary. The higher the mass of currency the lower value for each note...As investors watching for the dinar to revalue, we don’t want inflationary measures as the IMF is watching Iraq closely and they must be able to keep inflation low to more or less 2%...Another reason for NOT wanting more dinars is that the CBI is making an effort to reduce, NOT increase the monetary mass... just one of many measures that will coincide with the Project to Delete the Zeros and the coming digital dinar. They have been priming the proverbial the pump for the main event. They have been getting Iraq ready for that final choo-choo ride.

6-12-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] As far as our timeline, we have heard this from two different sources...If we don't get this by Thursday, we're looking at the weekend, which is probably Saturday. The other one was saying something very similar...Redemption Center leader that said if this doesn't go by the 11th Thursday...then it would go between the 12th, which would be Friday, and the 15th, which is Monday...So that seems to be the consistency of what we're getting from...I would say some of our very best sources.
6-11-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence January 2020 - The Iraqi parliament had just voted to expel US forces...A reporter asked President Trump how the United States planned to recover its costs if it left. The verbatim exchange: Reporter: "How are you going to collect?" Trump: "Well, we have a lot of their money right now. We have a lot of their money. We have $35 billion of their
money right now sitting in an account. And I think they'll agree to pay. I think they'll agree to pay. Otherwise, we'll stay there." The $35B sitting in an account is Iraqi oil revenue held at the New York Federal Reserve...At today's official rate of 1,310 IQD per USD, $35B sits as roughly 45.85 trillion Iraqi dinars. The arithmetic of repayment, alongside the arithmetic of every IMF programme, every World Bank facility, and every US Treasury sanctions calendar, only resolves cleanly if the underlying currency stops trading at one-tenth of a US cent.
6-11-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Iraq cannot in no way in hell tell you what the value of the currency is going be. You got to put common sense into this. Put your thinking cap on. They can't legally tell you what the value of the dinar is going to be. They can't. They also can't tell you when...They can't even tell you they're going to increase it's value...let alone give you a date they might do it.
6-11-2026 Intel Guru Stephen How do I convert [paper dinar currency] into numbers in my bank account? If you own dinar you took the first big step you could have taken. You are already way ahead of the game now. The second step you take is going to be just as important as the first step of buying Iraqi dinar. And that is getting the money to your bank and doing the exchange the proper way while minimizing fees the banks might want to charge you.

6-11-2026 Guest Guru Guy There are a lot of people in the foreign currency world who actually aren't holding their own currency. They bought bonds or they turned their currency over to a redemption center. Those bond issuers and redemption centers are not going to pay you all at once. They're going to pay monthly over the next 10, 20, 30 years. I stayed away from all that.
6-11-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Budgets are calculated off the currency value. Theoretically...the budget has to come forward right after the rate changes. But rate would have to change in what is called a budget period...The rate has to change in approximate budget period...Very solid confirmation that the rate could be changing in June...It's not 100%. No body knows when the rate change is, month or date...We have enough solid data to know...the budget is going to come forward to be implemented in the second half [of the year], which would be July on. That means the rate would most likely need to change in June...I needed more data. We now have it to really pin down the approximate period in which the rate could be changing. This data strongly suggests June.
6-11-2026 Intel Guru Stephen It's a very fluid situation. There's a lot going on. Iraq is moving forward. There's a lot of positive things happening in Iraq. Everything is coming together. The dominoes are falling. If you are an Iraq dinar investor...the end is near...I believe everything is lining up in our favor. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel...Iraq is positioning themselves to be a powerhouse of the Middle East again and the Iraqi dinar is going to be one of the most valuable currencies in the world in the very near future.

The layers of corruption, not just in Iraq but across the world, are being dismantled in public, one day at a time. This is a coordinated US Military Operation in conjunction with the United States Treasury...The old gatekeepers do not get to stand in the middle and skim the revaluation as it passes through. The house gets cleaned first. Then the money moves. That is the sequence, and it is happening on the record, right now.
6-9-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The news is going to suggest to you that Iraq is nowhere close and not in a position right now to change the value of the currency probably for at least the remainder of this year...Iraq probably will not be ready to change the rate until next year of 2027.

They do not want you to thin the rate is going to change anytime soon...The news is going to be very misleading and you're not going to like what you see.
6-9-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu We do not have definitive clarity on how the IRS plans to tax this profit [from a dinar RV] should there be any. They have been quite mercenary of late and may choose to tax the Dinar as a collectible if they so wish. The same goes for Fine Art, Silver, Gold, Antique Persian Carpets...etc. You probably should look into this CRUT Trust. It could save you a lot of money. The common knowledge says we can elect to pay the tax as Personal Income or CG Tax, your choice, but you never know. [Dinar Guru Note: Consult your tax and asset protection professionals to determine the best tax strategy for your unique circumstances.]
6-9-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram We do not believe the Central Bank of Iraq will relinquish control of the Iraqi dinar and allow the currency to float on the open market. Hopefully we are wrong. Iraq could do what Saddam did and raise the rate against the US dollar. But if the rate is not accepted by the global markets we would have to travel to realize our profits. Economists say this scenario is highly unlikely. Economists also say the United States' intervention into helping the Iraqi dinar adjust to a higher rate against the dollar is also unlikely. The way the world is going, we do not know what to expect.

6-9-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence There is no economic case for the dinar at 1,300. You do not harden a currency at the printing press. You harden it in the vault, and that is where this one is being made strong. $97 billion in reserves. A record 162 tons of gold. The floor is a political decision, not an economic one.
6-9-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They're saying that over time they've been printing new dinar and over time they're printed way too much. They're saying over time their MO figures are way too high.

6-8-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The pressure you are seeing is external and engineered, the kind that breaks an old arrangement so a new one can take its place. Iraq is being walked into an engineered currency revaluation, the one where increasing the value is the only door left.
6-8-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Anytime within a few weeks after the government is formed they can then proceed to revaluing the currency.

6-8-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Look at who just told the world he is getting on a plane. Al-Zaidi, prime minister of a country that cannot make payroll, its oil chocked off, and its central bank printing to cover the gap, has confirmed he will fly to Washington with a delegation behind him. The cover story is investment and reconstruction...A bankrupt oil state does not fly to Washington to talk business it cannot fund...
6-8-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff News about printing dinar to cover the budget gap was not true. It was very misleading and inaccurate. Article: "Printing currency is legally prohibited and does not reflect the nature of ongoing operations..." The central bank is coming out telling you that.
6-8-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "The Central Bank of Iraq issues a clarification regarding the 'printing of 25 trillion dinars' to provide salaries" Quote: "...there is a fundamental and important difference between 'discounting treasury bills' and 'printing currency'...discounting bills provides temporary financial liquidity...and is repaid when the bill matures...with strict adherence to its maturity dates...As for (printing currency), it is the issuance of new money without compensation that is injected directly into the economy, which leads to direct inflation and erosion of the currency’s value. It is not recovered and represents a permanent monetary burden...completely prohibited under the Central Bank of Iraq Law No. (56) of 2004. Therefore, the simplified description...as ‘printing currency’ does not reflect its true technical and financial nature.”
6-8-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] We know there is a change coming …we know there is a reset coming…we can see the pieces all around us. Central Banks are buying the metals. We just don’t know the exact timing.
6-8-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat ... this effort in Iraq to get to the reinstatement of the dinar is a much, much broader effort than most know. It is only a small part of a bigger global reset. Iraq does not stand alone as they must comply with the international standards already set to make this reset work...
6-7-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Iraq...dollars still clear through a New York account Washington can throttle, its banks still fight for the correspondent lines that connect them to the world, and its central bank still works under an oversight no normal country would accept. The price of getting out from under all of it is a set of books an auditor can trust. Clean the corruption, take the guns off the militias, seat a cabinet the auditors trust, and the door that opened for Caracas is the door Iraq is walking toward.
6-7-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Redenomination means that a 1000 dinar note will be replaced by a 1 dinar note...'Oh, shoot! He just told us it's going to lop?!?' [No,] Let me finish. All of this is based on a country's inflation. Iraq has very low, extremely low inflation...around 3%. A country with inflation that low is not going to lop. It's basic economics. I have articles that state Iraq will have 2 currencies coexist together at the same value. What does value mean? It means what the dinar is worth against a foreign currency such as the US dollar...So two different set of notes will coexist..Let's us a 25K note and a newer smaller note of 25...will share the same value against the dinar...If the rate was $3...just an example...a 25,000 note would be worth $75,000. A 25 note would be worth $75. That's why I said redenomiation and not a lop.

6-7-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Iraq has a new government. It's functional but incomplete, and the hardest decisions are still unresolved...What's still unresolved: Nine ministries remain unfilled including Defense, Interior, Planning, Culture, Higher Education, Labor, Migration, Housing, and Youth. Defense and Interior are the two that matter most because they control the security apparatus and are directly tied to the weapons disarmament push. Washington refused to resume transfer of certain dollar assets to Iraq while pressuring Baghdad not to seat affiliates of Iran-backed militia groups in cabinet posts...Who fills Defense and Interior will signal more about this government's actual direction than any written policy commitment.

6-6-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Question: "Why can’t Venezuela currency [Bolivar] exchange in the US for the current rate?" US sanctions on Venezuela make it nearly impossible for American banks to transact in bolívars. Add in hyperinflation that's destroyed the currency's value, and there's simply no legitimate market for it here. It's not a lack of desire, but rather a sanctions wall.

That is why this is the week that counts. For 2 decades the rifle ran Iraq and the men holding it answered to Tehran...They governed the gun and the gun governed the streets...
6-5-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff One of the top former auditors with the IRS promised us we will be paying taxes. If you guys want to risk not paying taxes, I would consult with a tax attorney for your best interest so you don't end up in jail...The level of money involved in this, if you're wrong...they're going to put you in jail quick. They'll come after you quick. The amount of money involved in this, they're going to want their percentage. You're best off having the mindset that you do have to pay taxes so you don't end up in jail...You're better off playing it safe than playing it naive and ignorant...I would consult with an IRS attorney... They will guide you in the right way.
6-5-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] ...Iraq...has their new Prime Minister...and...the Iranian influence that has been in the Iraqi banking system completely is finally removed, and that's a really good thing. So that is no longer an issue...I think that everything is moving forward as far as Iraq is concerned.
6-5-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Article: “PRIME MINISTER’S ADVISOR: IRAQ IS ON THE VERGE OF MAJOR ECONOMIC CHANGES UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF AL-ZAIDI“ Iraq is heading for a huge, radical Economic Transformation. I do not use this terminology lightly. If this holds to it promises this will lead us to what we want – the reinstatement of their dinar currency.
6-5-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] Article: “Sulaymaniyah hosts the Delphi International Economic Conference with wide Iraq and international participation.” This is scheduled for the 6th and 7th of June. I have a couple sources in government in Iraq who says participants include the “Who’s Who” of economic figures from Iraq, Kurdistan and number of other countries will be there. My Finance Ministry contact is of the absolute, concrete belief that they plan on announcing their value changes at the end of this thing which is Sunday...I am hopeful this is accurate but take it a “RUMOR” and stay calm.
6-4-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question "RV this year?" Jeff: Absolutely. IMSO I would say heck yeah this is the year.
6-4-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The same week al-Zaidi started cleaning Iraq's books, the IMF sat back down with Venezuela for the first time since 2019, to begin returning billions in frozen reserves. One system, deciding who it readmits. Iraq is in the same queue.
6-4-2026 Newshound Guru Pimpy Article: "Powerful Iran-backed Iraqi militia says it will start handing its weapons to the state" Say what!?! ...I have to ask myself, would this even be possible if Iran wasn't having these problems with the United States? Iran is running out of money. These groups are getting paid but are voluntarily turning over their weapons.
6-4-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Vietnam may be a socialist country however they create income like a capitalist country. Here is where Iraq is missing the boat compared to Vietnam...Vietnam's tourism industry generated approximately $30 billion in 2025 and...expects tourism revenue to reach about $45 billion in 2026 with 25 million foreign visitors...If only Iraq could understand and act on the fact that Iraq can attract 5x that number...A tourist industry of that scale would transform the country's economy and automatically straighten the currency, increasing its value.
6-4-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "The gap is widening... Why do Iraqis prefer money exchange over banks?" Quote: "Money exchange and transfer offices in Iraq have witnessed a remarkable expansion in recent years...in contrast to a relative decline in reliance on government banks... According to experts, this expansion reflects a continuing gap between the citizen and the official banking system, related to the speed of completing transactions and ease of access to services, compared to traditional banking procedures that are still characterized by bureaucracy, overcrowding and a long completion time in some cases."
6-4-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff When the rate publicly changes, it'll hit the CBI's website first. I would not go straight to Forex to see it...

6-4-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 There is less and less resistance to the new exchange rate of Iraq's currency and the report is being brought to Washington D.C. The size of this meeting is impressive.
6-4-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Walkingstick [Iraqi banker friend Aki update] All of Iraqi banking...AMF, IMF, EMF, US Treasury, WB, BIS, WTO, this is a big pow-wow at Trump's house. Aki's boss definitely knows they're going to meet with Trump, Bessant, Rubio and Vance. He was excited when he called. He said, 'I'm headed to D.C. I have to be there at this meeting because all of Iraq is giving their reports to D.C.' Aki himself is a big deal in the monetary reform. That's why he has to be in DC. But his boss is a much bigger deal. We are grateful to have his friendship. His boss owns dozens of private banks and Aki is his partner...There is something big going on for sure.
6-4-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The bribe was never the story. What al-Zaidi did with it was. He turned down $200m to look the other way, put the bribe on live television, arrested the man who carried it, and built a council that refers the file straight to a judge. Who clears the ground like that, unless you are setting a precedence for the future.
6-4-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The rate change itself does not get approved by their parliament...Laws that are created or amended and get approved by parliament end up in the Gazette. The rate change has nothing to do with the government. It has to do with the banking division, being the central bank. The rate change itself will never end up in the Gazette.
6-4-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] Comment: ...banking leaders from all over are headed to the U.S. and being told to raise their rates... MarkZ: Probably 20+ are already here in the US and already working on that. Iraq is already here with some key folks. Almost the whole global south that are friendly with the US are being pressured to raise their exchange rates in order to balance the playing field for trade. I have mentioned this before that the US is trying to pressure Vietnam to raise their exchange rate as it is way to artificially low.
6-4-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] we have been told a few days ago...I think it was Sunday, that we had notifications for Tier 4b coming, either Wednesday or Thursday...Thursday seems to be in play still... Thursday is the fourth...Could we get notified and get started setting appointments?
6-3-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Are still among the belief that it is going to be $3.80?" Jeff: Yeah I think it'll be around somewhere in the vicinity of around $3.80...give or take 10 to 15 cents.
6-3-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Letting Iran-backed factions hold Interior or Defense is the one line Washington has drawn and the prize Tehran still wants, so the cabinet was left half-built to avoid answering it. Parliament was meant to take up the rest after the Eid al-Adha break in late May. That break has passed and the chairs are still empty...al-Zaidi is going after the factions' cash, their rifles, and their grip on Interior and Defense at the same time... Cut the money that buys the guns, take the guns, and lock the gunmen out of the ministries, and there is not much faction left to bargain with...The house is not clean yet. But for the first time in 22 years, you can see who is holding the broom.
6-3-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Did you know you could negotiate the fees with your bank when the revolution happens? A lot of people don't know that. A lot of people will go to their bank and they'll be like, 'Okay, there's an 8% fee on foreign currency transactions.' What if you had knowledge beforehand that you could actually negotiate that? What if you had knowledge that you could negotiate an 8% fee down to 5%. How much money would that save you? If you're talking about hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars, think about 3% going from 8% to 5%. That 3% could amount to tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of dollars. These are little things people don't even know exist...Get prepared. I don't want you to get screwed by the banks.
6-3-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Will the Central Bank of Iraq keep the value of the IQD low like Vietnam continues to do? Or will it allow the value to increase? We don't know. That's why [we're here] because we don't know. Therefore we have to plan on many different levels to obtain and secure our IQD profits.
6-3-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Iraq has already moved the rate once. February 2023. 1,460 → 1,310. No announcement. No countdown. No community consensus. The Central Bank of Iraq made a policy decision and it moved. Immediately...The mechanism isn't theoretical. It's already been used. The question was never can it move.

6-2-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They cannot tell you they're going to raise [the Iraqi dinar] above zero. Look at what Kuwait did. Kuwait went from $3.50 down to 10 cents and then 3 months later went from 10 cents back up to around $3.50. They did all that overnight...They went down overnight, back up overnight. They did everything in one day, both directions. Yes, they can do it. Iraq went down from $3.22 to far below zero in one day, 24 hours. So yes, they can do a 3% to 4000% increase in one day. They cannot and will not tell you what they're going to do.
6-2-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Community comment about conversations with banks "They'll take care of you quickly...You got to move fast." I don't agree with that. I think we should move slowly.

The man who carried the offer was already in custody. Adnan Mohammed Hammoud, Deputy Oil Minister for Refining Affairs and Director General of the North Refineries Company, was arrested Friday evening...Communications Minister Mustafa Sand called him an "oil whale" and "the main provider of money to parties."...Then al-Zaidi did the part that matters. He stood up a council, named himself its chair, and gave it the power to send a corruption file straight to a judge...This one action just showed you what Iraq is now capable of.

6-2-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Article: "ECONOMIC REFORM OR RADICAL CHANGE ? - A LOOK AT THE PATH TO A MARKET ECONOMY"
This is further confirmation that the execution phase is real. Diversification, private sector activation, and reducing oil dependency are no longer just talk — they’re becoming policy priorities under the new government. A successful transition to a market economy is one of the strongest structural supports for a managed REER. You can’t sustainably strengthen the dinar long-term in a pure rentier system. The reforms we’re seeing are building the resilience needed for that next step.
6-2-2026 Newshound Guru Pimpy ...Those Iranian backed puppets are screaming out one side of their neck they want the rate to change to happen, on the other side, they're doing things to suppress that from happening. If they are removed, who's going to suppress the Iraq dinar? The United States won't. They're happy about the changes...That just leaves Iraq and their people in
their Central Bank of Iraq.
6-2-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Can the government drag the rate change for a couple more years?" Jeff: No...because they've already done everything. They've already told you the new government is going to lead Iraq into the next stage, next phase. That is the international post rate change era...All the articles tell you reforms, taxes, 150+ laws - all of that is post rate change era...This is not going to drag out for more years.
6-2-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence On May 27, Muqtada al-Sadr dissolved his own militia, the first faction we watched walk. 2 days later the faction Tehran built and armed lined up behind the same idea, the second domino. Now the whole Framework has signed the order, and it handed the wind-down to one of its own...Not everyone is folding. Harakat al-Nujaba calls the push a US project and will not give up a rifle.

This brings elite high-level US business muscle straight to oil development, investment inflows & regional reconstruction = faster foreign reserves, banking cleanup & real pressure to strengthen the dinar… exactly what the Iraqi President ordered the CBI to do....Watch for new oil contract drops and CBI statements in the next 30-60 days.

6-1-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen There's a lot of Dinar Gurus...saying before Iraq passes their new budget for the year there has to be a new rate...I have been involved in this investment for too long and hear this every single year from the gurus that they can't pass the budget until there is a new rate. Please do not believe that. In theory it makes sense that yes they would have to have a new rate before they pass the budget but they've done it many times before...If you see the budget passed and there's no dinar revaluation that doesn't mean that's not going to happen this year...Keep that in mind.
6-1-2026 Newshound Guru Pimpy The Mobilization Forces are targeting US institutions over there in Iraq. That's not going to be tolerated. The new prime minister is being asked to rein these people in. I don't know if he can. In the past, Iran supported them...The interesting thing...these proxy groups that are fighting on behalf of Iran...are running out of money...People say, people will only fight, not for a cause, it's only because they get a paycheck. We're going to find out how much of that is true once the money runs out and it's running out quick.
6-1-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Tackling corruption is the number one thing they need to go international, revalue and so forth. It's the number one requirement by the Central Bank of Iraq. It's also the number one reason why the CBI hasn't revalued for the past 23 years.

6-1-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The same logic runs through Baghdad...except there, the problem was never an honest price hidden on a ledger, but a currency deliberately held below its worth, kept down for years by a political class Washington did not trust to lift it. This week the president tried again to place his own envoy over Iraq. The cabinet that will finally raise the dinar began to take shape which is why the gold and the dinar belong together.

The one place that price is not honored is on America's own books, where the Treasury still records the nation's gold at a number fixed back in 1970s, a small fraction of what the metal actually fetches today. That gap between the pretend price on the ledger and the real price in the market was left there on purpose. The president reached for it, asking that the gold in the vaults finally be counted. Because before a government can put a new price on something it first has to prove how much of it there is. When that number is corrected... more than a trillion dollars appears on the national balance sheet overnight ...This is what a revaluation is. [Post 1 of 2...stay tuned]

6-1-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The Case for Revaluation - You don't do this much work to go backwards. $16T in untapped resources (per Iraq's PM advisor, 2025). BP $25B Kirkuk deal signed Feb 2025. Total Energies $27B Basra integrated project. ASYCUDA customs mandatory electronic across all 22 border crossings since January. That is not the infrastructure for devaluation...Evidence for Iraq to increase IQD purchasing power, not decrease it...
6-1-2026 Newshound Guru Samson Article: "TRUMP ANNOUNCES THE APPOINTMENT OF TOM BARRACK AS SPECIAL ENVOY TO IRAQ"
6-1-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Everybody wants this to happen now. Are you kidding me? In less than 2 months look what Trump has done. He's brought security and stability into your country [Iraq] so that you can raise the value of your currency and give your citizens purchasing power and enter the international world and pay us back. And guess what? It's happening...!
6-1-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Vietnam has this habit of keeping their currency value low. We can only hope Iraq will not take on this personality and start a new wave of trying to keep its currency low as well.
6-1-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen There's a lot of Dinar Gurus...saying before Iraq passes their new budget for the year there has to be a new rate...I have been involved in this investment for too long and hear this every single year from the gurus that they can't pass the budget until there is a new rate. Please do not believe that. In theory it makes sense that yes they would have to have a new rate before they pass the budget but they've done it many times before...If you see the budget passed and there's no dinar revaluation that doesn't mean that's not going to happen this year...Keep that in mind.
6-1-2026 Newshound Guru Pimpy The Mobilization Forces are targeting US institutions over there in Iraq. That's not going to be tolerated. The new prime minister is being asked to rein these people in. I don't know if he can. In the past, Iran supported them...The interesting thing...these proxy groups that are fighting on behalf of Iran...are running out of money...People say, people will only fight, not for a cause, it's only because they get a paycheck. We're going to find out how much of that is true once the money runs out and it's running out quick.
6-1-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Tackling corruption is the number one thing they need to go international, revalue and so forth. It's the number one requirement by the Central Bank of Iraq. It's also the number one reason why the CBI hasn't revalued for the past 23 years.

Tom will remain Ambassador to Türkiye, and operate with the full backing of the United States Department of State. We greatly appreciate the work that Tom Barrack has done, and his continued willingness to serve our Country. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP"
6-1-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The same logic runs through Baghdad...except there, the problem was never an honest price hidden on a ledger, but a currency deliberately held below its worth, kept down for years by a political class Washington did not trust to lift it. This week the president tried again to place his own envoy over Iraq. The cabinet that will finally raise the dinar began to take shape which is why the gold and the dinar belong together. One government correcting the price of its metal while the other corrects the price of its money. A single hand guiding both inside one week. [Post 2 of 2]

5-31-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence If a suppressed foreign currency you hold increases against the dollar, the bank you exchange it through decides how much of the new rate you actually keep. Many have been waiting years for this event. Most are still unprepared.
5-31-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Iraq's thesis is a revaluation event. So a big adjustment that could happen over night. But Vietnam's path looks more like a gradual climb over 12 to 16 months as the government opens up its markets... The roadmaps are a little different.
5-31-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram When you are in Iraq, your currency may be worthless to somebody in America, Great Britain, Australia or New Zealand but it's not worthless to you because it feeds you, it provides shelter, it provides transportation, gas for your car etc. So us calling their currency worthless is not a wise decision because it's not worthless in Iraq... Many of you are holding a million to 10 million Iraqi dinars. And you may feel broke, but you're only broke because of where you are at this particular time...
5-31-2026 Newshound Guru Samson Article: "FOLLOWING THE ACTIVATION OF THE ANTI-CORRUPTION COMMITTEE, THE DEPUTY MINISTER OF OIL WAS ARRESTED"
5-31-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff If the budget wasn't dependent on the rate change, they could have already submitted it. But because it's a law and all aspects of that law must exist, such as the currency value it's calculated off of, if the currency value does not exist, they can't send it to parliament for approval.
5-31-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 What I find to be the trigger, the lynch pin to all of this is the HCL...The HCL definitely has to have a new rate. They would have used 1300 or any sanctioned rate inside the last 20 years by now...But they never did...Because they are talking about it on a daily basis,...going to pass many of the laws of the HCL,...have not used any sanctioned rates...we're going to see a new rate.
5-31-2026 Newshound Guru Milita Man The CBI explicitly stated they're preparing the banking sector for deeper integration into the global financial system...This is one of the strongest signals we've seen...The technical foundation for a credible Real Effective Exchange Rate (REER) is being strengthened right now after years of quiet preparation. The banking sector is moving into execution phase. This is genuinely very uplifting for me. It shows the CBI is not waiting. They are acutely building the infrastructure needed for the next step. I can't wait.
5-31-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Two militias have unified with the state in two days. The second was Iran's own Quds Force proxy. The machine that has held the dinar at the program rate for two decades is being switched off one circuit at a time. Two FTO holdouts left standing alone. The rest are negotiating their terms. This is not the same story. This is not the same week. The architecture is doing the work. The momentum is real. Get a grip and focus on the positives.
5-31-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The next major critical piece we have to see done before they can revalue is complete the formation of the government and the pending ministers. That's the very next thing we have to see...They might call an emergency session of Parliament [to vote]. It can be random.
5-31-2026 Newshound Guru Ross No one can predict the future exchange rate of IQD vs USD. We look to what happened in Kuwait. We look at Iraq’s true wealth as a country based on their oil...I cannot throw out an exact rate. I just know 1300 per USD is BS.

Iraq is heading for a huge, radical Economic Transformation. I do not use this terminology lightly. If this holds to it promises this will lead us to what we want – the reinstatement of their dinar currency.
5-30-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question "What are your thoughts on the Venezuela Bolivar?" I want to see how high their inflation is. Before you even consider a country, you got to know their inflation levels. It's looking like right now like they have hyperinflation...it reached 650% in March of this year. There is no way a country is going to remove zeros from their currency. They're adding zeros if they're hyper-inflated.
5-30-2025 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Washington holds Iraq's frozen funds at the NY Fed and won't release them until the militias fold under one command. Disarmament is the gate the new rate sits behind.
5-30-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 I find the HCL to be the #1 clear evidence that there is a new exchange rate and the fact that the HCL is top priority for the '26 budget only leads to common sense. There's a new exchange rate.
5-30-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen We have to start thinking ahead of the dinar revaluation. We have to start planning. We can't just look for dates and rates and then it happens and we're not prepared. Because those who prepare are going to end up saving and growing a lot more money than those...who just wanted it to happen. There's no plan. There's no preparation, you take whatever fees the bank tells you. You get emotional about it and you end up having a lot less than you probably should have...

5-29-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "What's your take on the dong?" I don't think any other currencies will revalue at this time, only the Iraqi dinar... They manufacture and export. In order to make the exporting productive, they got to keep their currency value at a low value...For a communist regime dictator it doesn't do Vietnam any good at all to increase the value of their currency.
5-29-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I believe the dinar is the very beginning of what is to come. The dinar is just the starting line...I truly believe you're going to be able to 500x, 1,000x, 5,000x your initial investment from the Iraqi dinar. You don't need millions of Iraqi dinar to reach a large wealth number. I truly believe if you're obedient with the little, God's going to lead you to the right investments and further multiply it.

You're thinking this is a funded step event by Iraq. The dollars come from our country, our government, our treasury, our US Federal Reserve. They come from us within the United States...All we're doing is a currency swap. To get into this you traded dollars for dinar. To exit out, you're going to trade dinars back in for dollars.

A redemption center is the same as a redeeming bank with a branch or office that the staff has been trained to exchange foreign currency and detect counterfeit etc…its a real bank that can process your currency right there.

5-28-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Some argue that the HCL (Hydro-Carbon Law) has to have a rate before the HCL gets passed. It allows there to be distribution of oil revenues between Kurdistan and other regions of Baghdad [Iraq]. It is important. It's something they've been negotiating since 2007, almost 20 years...I think with this new prime minister, it seems like that law is at the top of the agenda to get passed...Is the rate change going to be before the law is passed? Is the law gong to pass first and then there's a rate change? It's like the chicken and the egg.

5-28-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram The United States UFO document shows us more than anything else...that governments do tell stories. They sometimes mislead their citizens. That is the connection between UFOs and the IQD because the Central Bank of Iraq right now within the last 30 days has reported that they have no intention of revaluing the Iraqi dinar. But wait... we do not make reports on...what people say. We're smarter than that. We report and come to conclusions based upon what people do. Here's what Iraq is doing and analysts are pointing it out. While they're saying the IQD, they have no intentions of revaluing it, at the exact same time, they are accelerating banking reforms. They are implementing digital finance initiatives and modernization...
5-28-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Things have tremendously, significantly changed since the new government's been in. They're preparing to revalue ...Because the new government takes Iraq to the next stage and the next phase.
5-28-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Over the past 48 hours we've seen a remarkable convergence of signals across political, financial, digital and economic fronts. The government under the prime minister Al-Zaidi is hitting the ground running with clear execution focus. He is a technocrat. He's taking charge now over the foundation Al-Sudani put in place...all advancing at the same time...
5-28-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Iraq's new PM has until the end of this week to seat 9 ministers — including Defense and Interior. Iran-backed militias want in. Washington says no. If you're holding dinar — who do you think wins this standoff, and what does it mean for Iraq's future?
5-28-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I have never been more positive about the Iraqi dinar revaluing as I am right now. However...we have to watch things play out...Things are positive. Things are moving. We're watching things play out right before our very eyes. We're watching all the Iranian corruption in the country of Iraq slowly but surely get removed. Everything is working in our favor.
5-28-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The Iraqi cabinet itself is still incomplete. Al-Zaidi has filled 14 of 23 cabinet seats since May 15th. Defense and interior remain open. Those nominations go to parliament when the chamber returns from EID recess in June. The same week the disarmament committee starts certifying which factions walked under federal authority and which are still standing outside the law. Sadr put the first name on the list. The rest should follow in June.

5-28-2026 Newshound Guru tishwash Article: "Former MP: The government faces two paths: borrowing or raising the exchange rate."

5-28-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] Question: Will we have immediate access to our funds? MarkZ: I am told that if you exchange through the redemption center/redeeming banks you will get instant access. But, if you go to a regular bank…and they send your currency off…it will take a couple of days. A redemption center is the same as a redeeming bank with a branch or office that the staff has been trained to exchange foreign currency and detect counterfeit etc…its a real bank that can process your currency right there. It will be a fairly simple process.

That's looking very good based on what I'm hearing.
5-28-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Some argue that the HCL (Hydro-Carbon Law) has to have a rate before the HCL gets passed. It allows there to be distribution of oil revenues between Kurdistan and other regions of Baghdad [Iraq]. It is important. It's something they've been negotiating since 2007, almost 20 years...I think with this new prime minister, it seems like that law is at the top of the agenda to get passed...Is the rate change going to be before the law is passed? Is the law gong to pass first and then there's a rate change? It's like the chicken and the egg.

5-27-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Do we need pre-existing banking relationship to redeem our currency?" No you just need your currency. You go to the bank and exchange. You don't need receipts either. Receipts are for tax purposes. Banks exchanging your currency are not going to do your taxes for you.
5-27-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I truly believe the Iraqi dinar is going to revalue. I truly believe it's going to be a once in a lifetime event. I truly believe if you're involved or if you hold the Iraqi dinar currency...you have been chosen, ordained, to participate...If you believe that...then what good is it to have a bad attitude? Or be annoyed or be angry or be upset in the times where it seems like it's not happening or it hasn't happened on our timeline...We don't have to wait until the Iraqi dinar revalues to have joy...to be happy...to celebrate life...I have to control my emotions and my thoughts and my peace and my joy in the waiting times just like you do as well...
5-27-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Here's the currency path we are looking at for the IQD currency adjustment...Once Iraq increases its GDP, lowers its unemployment rate, completes banking reform so their banks can globally connect and satisfies the IMF's recommendations to create consistent streams of income outside the oil industry, then Iraq will get a green light to join the global market. This is when Iraq will have the option to join the Forex market. This is when we can realize a return on our IQD investment based on how the currency does on the open market.
5-27-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Iraq does not publish revaluation announcements prior to an event. The CBI does not telegraph rate moves. No Iraqi institution is going to post a calendar on social media for you to follow...The move arrives the same way Iraq's last 3 monetary moves arrived. Overnight. On a single CBI statement.
5-27-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article quote: "Saleh said...the Central Bank of Iraq enjoys independence and does not receive orders from the government in its work, but it coordinates through the Ministerial Council for the Economy, which is headed by the Minister of Finance,”
5-27-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They really don't have anything left to do...There's a lot of comments like, 'what's the delays? What's taking so long?' There is no delays in this other than the Iran war, waiting for a new regime to come in. That was a delay. Overall there's not a lot of delays. What it is, is they have scheduled dates for the rate change...Bankers schedule everything. That's what we're waiting on...Agreements are reached. Everything is ready to go.
5-27-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Question: "Do all the militia and the PMF have to be dismantled for this to go forward?" Yes...We're so close to getting rid of all of them.
5-27-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Alaq has been firm and confident ruling out devaluation. He's been saying it numerous time which is fascinating because they can't tell you about a revaluation. That is not in the cards. They're not going to tell us a time and date. I don't care how many people talk about that. They're just not going to do that. But we can see forward movement.
5-27-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I've held to this belief, we're not going to see the dinar revalue until there's some type of agreement with Iran, finalization to all of this. I don't think there's going to be any revaluation until that happens ...It sucks especially for us who want this to happen yesterday. But it is what it is. We have to let it play out...
5-27-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff All that remains in Iraq is roughly 20 to 40 trillion dinar. When they delete the zeros, the 20 to 40 trillion dinar becomes 20 to 40 billion dinar. The central bank does not give two craps about their M1 money supply because most of that is outside the country and it's not usable outside the country. All it does is become a Basil III asset in the countries that have that currency. That's why they don't care [about the dinar we hold].

5-26-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The Development Road Project is massive. They haven't stopped. They keep completing it while this tension has been out there. They keep showing results and they're moving forward...We're talking about global trade. There's a lot of big money out there. There's a lot of pressure...Those tires are definitely going to hit the pavement and it's going to rock and roll.
5-26-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The HCL profit share, once signed, decides whether resource revenue is captured at the federal layer, the regional layer, or distributed per capita. None of the major comparable models hand the entire upside to citizens directly. Norway compounds it. Saudi Arabia reinvests it. Alaska distributes a fraction. Iraq's draft will land somewhere in that range. Iraq has the wealth. The disbursement model is the remaining decision.
5-26-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 How long will they allow us to exchange our 3-zero notes? Not only Iraqi citizens but us outside of Iraq...for a higher value? These are the questions we as a team are dealing with now. These are the most wonderful questions of our study because they need to be asked now...
5-26-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Question: "Why am I going to pay taxes? Why am I going to set aside taxes?" For those of you who are not going to pay your taxes, it's not going to be a good ending for you. I don't know where you're getting your information from, who you're listening to? I'm planning on setting aside 50% right out of the gate just to be safe to make sure everything is handled. For those of you who think you're not going to have to pay taxes or they're going to get rid of the IRS in the next 12 months, I'm sorry. It's very foolish. I really hope you do not plan on doing that. [Dinar Guru Note: Consult your tax and asset protection professionals to determine the right taxes for your unique circumstances.]
5-26-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff I've worked at the Federal Reserve Bank for 5 straight years. I've also done a ton of work in banks. If [the CBI] put the [lower] notes in banks prior [to the rate change], they can't risk staff taking pictures of the new denominations. If the staff knew all these new lower denominations were getting put into the banks they risk the banks getting held up and the new notes getting stolen. They can't stock random ATMs sitting out in the middle of the public area getting broken into and having currency notes stolen...You have to use common sense.
5-26-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram I too want to get my hands on the Venezuelan currency. Experts are telling us investing in the VES, Venezuela's currency [the bolivar] is not a good idea. And we understand that. The currency keeps decreasing against the dollar. [We] will keep you updated on exactly what's going on in Venezuela and when we may should absolutely engage in getting our hands on the currency. Right now it's decreasing. We expect it's going to go up. We do not expect it's going to be another Iraqi situation where it's going to take years...
5-26-2026 Newshound Guru Thom You've probably heard that Iraq and Vietnam HAVE TO revalue together because of their deep economic ties. Nobody ever explains what those ties actually are. Here's why. Because there aren't many. Their primary trade relationship today is food for oil. During the Cold War there were closer economic ties. Today they are two separate economies on two separate trajectories. Two separate events. This is why I do my own research. It's not hard. When the dinar moves, what do you plan to do with it in the first 72 hours?
5-26-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The CBI has strong reserves, a high coverage ratio, and is actively pushing banking reforms, digital transformation, and diversification. The new government is also coordinating fiscal and monetary policy more closely now. These are the exact tools needed to weather economic storms and protect the dinar’s value. The last three years is evidence of that!
5-26-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The CBI has spent the last 18 months pulling notes from circulation...USD cash imports cut from $14 billion to $4 billion. 95% of the system on the electronic platform. 79 commercial banks queued for digital licenses. The project to delete three zeros contracts the IQD float from 93 trillion to 93 billion when the rate moves - and every three-zero note international investors are holding gets cleared in the same instant. Iraq has already laid the concrete on this foundation.
5-26-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They're screaming at you from so many different angles that rate is about to change. It's not a secret. All of this information came forward since the new government has been in position. Remember they told us it'll be the new government that introduces Iraq to the next stage, next phase...That means when they've gone international.
5-26-2026 Guest Guru Ross In an XRP world, the Global Currency Reset is destiny. Pre-RV, liquidity pair issues hit hard for hyper-inflated currencies attempting to make use of XRP. You can technically move a pile of worthless dinar through XRP…But why would anyone on the other end actually want it? Even with XRP as the bridge, the IQD side still needs real market makers. Right now those pools are shallow. Slippage is a real risk on exotic pairs. Post-RV? The problem disappears. The revaluation floods the dinar with real global demand. Liquidity providers jump in — because it’s now a strong currency...XRP supercharges the RV by making that powerful dinar instantly global...The RV loads the train with real wealth — turning Iraq into a global powerhouse and exploding your dinar’s purchasing power...the intel lines up perfectly: Banking reforms in Iraq + XRP corridors opening + the rate change... “We are so close.” is an understatement.
5-26-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] ...$4.8101...is the rate that many...have seen...We have definitely been seeing this for quite some time. I am of the mindset that this is the rate we will see.
5-26-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Now let’s get on with some of the really good news that Iraq is telling us that should be our expectation for this next phase that Iraq keeps talking about. Next phase? This means the future phase under this next prime minister...if they can pull off from what they are talking about doing, to what they actually do, we will see what we want too - the reinstatement...I am told by my CBI contact we need to watch these developments with Iran carefully as they are key for Iraq to move ahead into this next phase. Completion of this next phase is going to drive what we want.

The new government is also coordinating fiscal and monetary policy more closely now. These are the exact tools needed to weather economic storms and protect the dinar’s value. The last three years is evidence of that!
5-26-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The CBI has spent the last 18 months pulling notes from circulation...USD cash imports cut from $14 billion to $4 billion. 95% of the system on the electronic platform. 79 commercial banks queued for digital licenses. The project to delete three zeros contracts the IQD float from 93 trillion to 93 billion when the rate moves - and every three-zero note international investors are holding gets cleared in the same instant. Iraq has already laid the concrete on this foundation.
5-26-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They're screaming at you from so many different angles that rate is about to change. It's not a secret. All of this information came forward since the new government has been in position. Remember they told us it'll be the new government that introduces Iraq to the next stage, next phase...That means when they've gone international.
5-26-2026 Guest Guru Ross In an XRP world, the Global Currency Reset is destiny. Pre-RV, liquidity pair issues hit hard for hyper-inflated currencies attempting to make use of XRP. You can technically move a pile of worthless dinar through XRP…But why would anyone on the other end actually want it? Even with XRP as the bridge, the IQD side still needs real market makers. Right now those pools are shallow. Slippage is a real risk on exotic pairs. Post-RV? The problem disappears. The revaluation floods the dinar with real global demand. Liquidity providers jump in — because it’s now a strong currency...XRP supercharges the RV by making that powerful dinar instantly global...The RV loads the train with real wealth — turning Iraq into a global powerhouse and exploding your dinar’s purchasing power...the intel lines up perfectly: Banking reforms in Iraq + XRP corridors opening + the rate change... “We are so close.” is an understatement.
5-26-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] ...$4.8101...is the rate that many...have seen...We have definitely been seeing this for quite some time. I am of the mindset that this is the rate we will see.
5-26-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Now let’s get on with some of the really good news that Iraq is telling us that should be our expectation for this next phase that Iraq keeps talking about. Next phase? This means the future phase under this next prime minister...if they can pull off from what they are talking about doing, to what they actually do, we will see what we want too - the reinstatement...I am told by my CBI contact we need to watch these developments with Iran carefully as they are key for Iraq to move ahead into this next phase. Completion of this next phase is going to drive what we want.
5-25-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Do you believe there is such a thing as 'contract rate'?' " I'm not into anything 'contract rate'. I don't care about contract rate. To me that's nothing.
5-25-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 It may be more around $1.15 to $1.20 against the dollar when it first comes out. As the international basket floats, [The Untied States] will be by [Iraq's] side, not pegged to [the dinar] but instead paired with it so that [it] has the same value internationally. People will want [the dinar] as badly as they want the American dollar. Then the final conversation ...would be how high do they cap this float. IMO somewhere between $4.00 and $4.25 is what we calculated.
5-25-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence A revaluation directly raises the purchasing power of every Iraqi household that holds dinars or earns wages in dinars. Imports become cheaper. International medical care and education become accessible. Remittance corridors invert.
5-25-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man What we're seeing is not the same as it was 15 years ago. It's not even close. It's very exciting to see everything tying in...
5-25-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I would highly speculate that when this does happen, we're probably going to have about 3 months, 90 days. You don't have to be running to your bank the same day or even the next day and making irrational decisions and rush the process only to come home and I'm like here's how you could save X amount of money on the spread fees or X amount of money doing this.

This is major.
5-25-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Does Iraq have to have a fully completed formed cabinet to change the rate? Possibly. It could be perceived as a level of stability in this.
5-25-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] The chatter has been unreal this weekend.

5-25-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff You have to admit since the new administration came in, the temperature and pressure on the rate change itself and getting the rate change done has tremendously escalated and increased. That's not coincidental because they told you that it will be the new administration that enters Iraq into the next phase, next stage.
5-25-2026 Guest Guru Ross Iraqi Dinar Revaluation was NEVER Possible Until the Strait of Hormuz Was Dealt With! Imagine holding the Dinar for 23 years thinking it could revalue any day. What if it actually did? You’d have cashed out years ago, retired on a beach with a margarita… but what if the Strait closed after your exchange? Iraq’s oil exports via Hormuz collapsed 89% in April alone — slashing 90% of government revenue. You do the math. What oil revenue would be backing that newly revalued Dinar? Exactly. Nothing. And that’s precisely why you’ve waited this long. Nothing could have sustained the new value. Iraq’s diversification away from oil revenues will not be solved anytime soon. The fact that the Strait of Hormuz is closed right now should have you feeling electric about your investment -- resolving this is literally the #1 prerequisite to a revaluation.
5-25-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] I had heard at least a week ago...that they want this done by the end of May. ...I got information... from very good sources ...that says looks like we could get notified any time from Memorial Day to the end of the month, exchange between Memorial Day and the end of the month...

5-24-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The volume of emails I have been getting on trust structures, foundation mechanics, banking corridors, and country-specific deployment has gone up sharply over the last month. People holding IQD, VND, ZIM, VES who are starting to think seriously about what happens when the basket pays out - and what the home-side tax position looks like...The questions are getting more specific, the stakes are getting more personal, and the timing pressure is real now that we are closer to the event than we have ever been.
5-24-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I really want you guys to start thinking about preparing and planning and getting your financial house in order because I truly believe the Iraqi dinar is just the beginning. If you steward properly, if you protect your money properly, if you invest it wisely, I truly believe you're going to be able to 100x, 500x to 1,000x your initial dinar investment. I truly believe the dinar is just the beginning of your financial journey. I'm excited. It's looking like things are close...we have to be grounded. We have to be rooted. We have to control our emotions.
5-24-2026 Boots-On-The-Ground Guru Omar When we used to get the HCL payments, it was a yearly check. It wasn't a monthly thing. It was a yearly check and you usually got it in the last quarter between October and December. So we got a check for a yearly amount...That's how we get paid on HCL, one payment a year.
5-24-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The budget is dependent on the rate changing. Why? Because the budget is calculated off the currency value. The budget is a law. In order to approve a law, all aspects of it have to exist, such as the currency value that it was calculated off of...In order for the government to get the budget approved, the rate has to exist...

5-24-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Who appointed Alaq? Maliki. Maliki was a crook. He got kicked out because he was stealing billions of dollars. Maliki went to Alaq and he says, I want you to siphon...skim off the top, off the bottom, in the middle...We're doing this through the CBI auctions. We set this up perfect. They can't do anything about it...This is legal...But it didn't work because you got caught...IMO five days ago, you got a phone call didn't you Alaq? Somebody told you, US Treasury and some other people from the 8th floor of the CBI...'Mr. T wants me to go to the United States of America and Frank26 says we're going to have the exchange rate before they let me go.'
5-24-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence CBI Governor Ali al-Alaq told the Sin Dialogue Forum in May 2026 that cash imports of US dollars into Iraq have been cut from $14 billion to $4 billion, with roughly 95% of dollar sales now moving through the electronic platform rather than the cash currency-auction window that existed a year earlier.
5-24-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Article: "At the start of the week...a new update on dollar exchange rates in Iraq" They don't tell you what the update is. They don't tell you what's changing or happening and what the new update's going to be. At the start of next week, there's some kind of brand new update on dollar exchange rate.
5-24-2026 Guest Guru Ross Financial disclosures in Iraq are moving faster and with more immediate emphasis than typical under the new government. Ask yourself why that is...there seems to be a bit of a rush going on with Iraq’s new government…Kinda like IQD has been coiled up for a while. Don’t be surprised ...to see real, unstoppable, lightning-speed progress on a daily basis.
5-24-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] I was told that Wednesday...that we would have rates on bank screens and redemption center screens. We did get confirmation that we have 18 currencies ...currently on redemption center screens, and probably the same amount on bank screens...Now these are rates that are continually trading up and my instinct is to think that they want to continue to trade these currencies up to where when we go in for our exchanges we'll get better rates than they have right now...I'm not concerned about the rates – I know the rates at the redemption centers...and we know that the dinar holders have a contract rate established by President Trump at redemption centers, so we're going to be in great shape...
5-24-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Article: "PARLIAMENT IS MOVING TO AVOID A “PARALYSIS” SCENARIO AND AIMS TO FINALIZE THE OIL, GAS, AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS LAWS"; “POLITICAL CONSENSUS PAVES THE WAY FOR THE PASSAGE OF THE OIL AND GAS LAW.” Quote: “The Iraqi Parliament is preparing to introduce the draft oil and gas law in the coming period, amid indications of a political consensus among most blocs to pass it." ...the Oil and Gas Law is not yet passed but it certainly looks like a slam dunk very soon...Nice!
5-23-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff I think it's going to be a reinstatement. Here's why. You have to look at what devalued the currency, US sanctions. When US sanctions were applied on Iraq, that brought the currency value far down...So what happens when you take the sanctions off? It reinstates. It goes back to where it was back in '03...$3.22...I'm more around the $3.80 camp...around there.
5-23-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen The Iraqi dinar is going to revalue. I believe we are very close to finally seeing it happen. But that doesn't take away that this is a very lonely journey. Most people don't believe in this. I don't talk about the Iraqi dinar with anyone...I have people in my life, family members, that think it's a joke. I have a family member who is a bank manager and he doesn't believe in it. He's like, "No, it's foolish. It's not real." And that's okay...It takes a great deal of faith to invest in a war-torn country that is not a democratic country...filled with corruption...
5-23-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The fundamentals are improving in Iraq and the system is ready for bigger monetary steps. That's what they're doing. They're making sure everybody understand what they can do is plausible but they have plausible deniability that they didn't tell you this [RV/RI] was going to happen because a lot of people are going to be shocked. The people that are in the parallel market are going to be really shocked.
5-23-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Iraq is not devaluing the IQD or reducing its citizens' purchasing power. What they are building says the exact opposite.
5-23-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 There is a paradigm shift that is occurring inside of Iraq because of the dynamics of the monetary reform that will lead to the explosion of the economic reform...
5-23-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Currencies on the open market move constantly based on supply, demand, exports, interest rates, economic strength, political stability and investor confidence...There is no true global market price for the IQD...The IQD is an exotic currency...
5-23-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Do you think it will be a reinstatement or managed float?" It's going to be both. It'll come forward as a managed float after the reinstatement.
5-23-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Vietnam [VND]...I anticipate it will grow in value over a year or two.
5-23-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen We are simply waiting and speculating and trying to figure out when is the revaluation of the Iraqi dinar going to happen? What is the rate going to come out at? Is it going to be 50 cents, 10 cents, a dollar, $3.70? It's sometimes fun to speculate...2026, I think there's a high probability and strong argument we could make for it happening this year...I believe the most optimal month for the dinar revaluation is going to be in August...
5-23-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The diversification that Iraq has attained over the last three years under Al-Sudani has been amazing and set the stage. They couldn't do this all overnight. They had to have things in place...
5-23-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence When the CBI announced the move from 1,460 to 1,300 on February 7, 2023, it executed overnight on a single announcement. The mechanical capacity to reprice exists. What has been missing is the architectural readiness to do it without losing control of the parallel market response. That architectural readiness is what 2025 and 2026 built.
5-23-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The government is done. Now they're ready to revalue...I don't think there's any more delays in this.
5-23-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ A lot of people are betting on this weekend. I don't know where it's going to go this weekend. My contacts trained at wealth management are on call [Saturday] but off on Monday. They also told them they can change that at any moment.
5-23-2026 Guest Guru Ross Article Quote: "Kurdistan Region PM Masrour Barzani on Thursday received Bakr al-Samarrai, special advisor for Iraqi PM Ali al-Zaidi, where the pair placed emphasis on developing coordination between their governments and resolving outstanding disputes..." HCL is the “elephant in the room”. If we are about to witness unstoppable lightning-speed progress toward the revaluation of IQD then I would expect this meeting with the KRG PM to be fruitful. HCL requires a new rate, a new rate does not require HCL. Keep that in mind as you watch the progress of HCL versus the progress of Iraq’s banking sector and budget.
5-23-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] ...Information says that we would get notifications Saturday night, late, like before midnight, or Sunday morning early, like two 3am...Then we got another piece that said Tuesday...Now I was interpreting that to mean that we would get notified late Saturday night or early Sunday mornings – set appointments over Monday. Start our exchanges Tuesday. Okay, there’s our three day weekend...realistically, I don't know that that's a requirement, but...I think we need a three day weekend...
5-22-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Iraq is waiting for the rate to change to finish the last few final remaining steps to join the WTO.
5-22-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I am not a financial adviser. I am here speculating that the Iraqi dinar is going to revalue in the near future...
5-22-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man I don't hype things...It's just real raw data we have collected...Experience shows we can take all this data and show just how complex this information is and has been for so many years...It's different. In the last three years we've seen the complexity come to light. We've tracked Iraq's economic rebuild through CBI reports...IMF reviews... and physically on the ground reforms. What we're witnessing now, it's not speculation...We seen digital overhauls...e-government...ASYCUDA systems ...tokenized commodities...This is effectively like a new world financial order that's taking place...

5-22-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The bolivar is back on dollar settlement rails. US crude imports from Venezuela near-tripled in one quarter. Trump put it on the wire...- the spirit is back, the rigs are going up. Iraq is up next...Finance is the one that pressures the central bank on the rate...
5-22-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Do you think they will give you more than a 30-day window to cash in?" They've given us two factual historical examples in the past where they gave us 90 days. IMO to your question is 90 days.
5-22-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 They can pass laws right now...because it's not a caretaker government. It's not a fully seated government but it is a seated government. 2/3 can pass laws right now.
5-22-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram The governor of the Central Bank of Iraq has warned Iraq is facing a critical and real chronic budget deficit. According to him the problem is becoming structural because Iraq remains heavily reliant upon oil revenues. The IMF has been telling Iraq for months and months that you've got to strengthen your other streams of income. This is what we've always feared...We all know Iraq's oil revenue dropped significantly...The governor also stated the central bank is focused on maintaining stability in the Iraqi dinar and denies rumors of any planned changes to the exchange rate policy. Of course he has to say that. He's supposed to say that and we're supposed to believe him.
5-22-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] IMO our worst case timeline is within 3 months and 1 to 1...I still think it could go this month…but imo anytime before July 4th. I would not be surprised to see something over this long 3 day weekend.
5-22-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I believe there are still a few things that need to happen before the Iraqi dinar revalues...What kind of time frame that puts us on, no one really knows...We can only speculate, look at the news to...make a hypothesis...I do think this year 2026 is a very high probability. But certain things have to play out before then.
5-22-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The conditions for a managed REER adjustment are the best we've seen in a long time. The convergences are powerful and happening simultaneously...The last 48 hours have delivered consistent purposeful momentum and movement...The future looks bright.
5-22-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The new prime minister has been very verbal and outspoken with a level of urgency since Saturday. He wants this done. He knows it needs to get done. He also knows he can't do a darn thing till the rate changes. His hands are tied. He's boxed in a corner till the rate changes.
5-22-2026 Guest Guru Ross New government (Zaidi incoming) + 2026 budget + HCL = the exact window CBI has been waiting for to execute monetary reform. When HCL passes, the new rate goes live because the law requires the stable, internationally viable dinar to be enforceable. HCL passing is the trigger event that forces the CBI’s hand on rate reform. By the way, the meeting with the Fed and Treasury to advance Iraq’s banking reforms (immediately after Trump backed Al-Zaidi formed a new government) is scheduled in days — not weeks. The days of IQD RV delays are OVER! [Post 2 of 2]
5-22-2026 Guest Guru Ross Why HCL = New IQD Rate? HCL literally cannot function without a revalued Dinar. The law unlocks massive new oil contracts, FDI, and revenue splits between federal gov + Kurdistan. Those deals are priced in billions of dollars. At 1,300 IQD per $1, everything is absurdly expensive and unstable for investors and local partners. Trillions of dinars for billion-dollar contracts = accounting nightmares and operational hassle. A stronger rate + redenomination makes the math work, restores confidence, and lets Iraq price oil domestically in a credible currency. It’s all tied together... [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
5-22-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat ...Look at it this way – you are going to have all this money from your dinar exchange... Go to a legitimate wealth manager associated with your bank. Let the licensed experts advise you... Go to professionals. It doesn’t mean you have to follow everything they advise you but it’s a great start. Remember they too are selling investment products and get commissions.
5-21-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff I don't think any other currencies [other than the Iraqi dinar] are going to change in value.
5-21-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man This is totally bullish. $24.7 billion trade surplus in 2025. Is it real? According to the CBI. Is it measurable progress? Absolutely. It supports the long-term real effective exchange rate path we follow closely. It shows the foundational work is delivering visible results...It's all getting stronger and stronger.
5-21-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen A lot of people...just want to hear when is it going to happen? What's the rate going to be? ...I get it. It's exciting...I am just as excited and hopeful that it's going to happen soon...But you have to have preparations in place to be a good steward of the money...Because money can corrupt someone. It has the power to do a lot of good, but also a lot of evil. When you're dealing with money you've never had before, you have options you've never had before...you're talking to an old girlfriend or people want to hang out with you because you're driving the new car. I joke around with my dad. We're both invested. I'm like, thank God it's taken this long for it to revalue because if it would have happened within the first year or two of us getting involved, we probably would have blown it by now.
5-21-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Iraq does not publish revaluation announcements before an event. The CBI does not telegraph rate moves...The move arrives the same way Iraq's last three monetary moves arrived, overnight... This is a chain of dated events that have already started landing.
5-21-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Vietnam is a partner with BRICS. Iran is a member of BRICS. Iraq is neither...Those of you who are invested in the VND, the Vietnam dollar, you are indirectly already invested into the BRICS system...The Strait of Hormuz has given BRICS a final say...Iran...is allowing BRICS Nations to pass through the Strait of Hormuz for a fee of 2 million cryptocurrency...Iran has a multi-billion dollar crypto program they have been using to escape sanctions...Iran essentially holding 20% of the global oil hostage. Your ship can go through if you pay the 2 million in cryptocurrency.
5-21-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They have a set date on this. They've already agreed to a date. Bankers drafted this. This has a date behind it. Plus, there's steps that Iraq has to do. They need time to do these steps but they also have a scheduled date...It happens when it happens. We're not privy to know what that date is. This is a guessing game for all of us. We can observe their actions...
5-20-2026 Guest Guru Ross Why is the CBI suddenly announcing meetings with the Federal Reserve and US Treasury right now? IQD is going to revalue and to be honest I’m shocked the CBI is giving such a huge signal about it. Meanwhile the Iran War kicked off Feb 28… and suddenly we get a new reform-focused Iraqi PM, a 100-day corruption cleanup mandate, CBI saying “no devalue” + “no sanctions on funds,” public US praise, and scheduled high-level meetings with the new Fed team + Treasury. These meetings are about real technical work: banking reforms, reserve management, dollar liquidity, and deeper financial integration...unlimited amounts of new convergences keep showing up...All moving in the same window heading into America’s 250th...

5-21-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] OMAR: On television...the idea of revaluing the Iraqi dinar to go to 1 Iraqi dinar to equal 1 American dollar and it features Mazin al-Ashiqr...It's also a Twitter/x post from Mazin al-Ashiqr. He's sharing a clip from a television discussion. The Arabic text is something like, 'The first step for the Iraqi economy is printing new currency - a dinar equal to $1.' ...The economist is making it clear this is not an official action. This is a common debate in Iraqi media and politics...It's nothing yet official. FRANK: It is very healthy to see a constant conversation about the need of a new exchange rate...The economists are delivering the truth about your monetary reform because the information is very critical to be absorbed by the Iraqi citizens NOW.
5-21-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man PM Ali al-Zaidi visited the Oil Ministry today and gave clear, strong directives: Transform the ministry from simply “selling crude” into a value-added production powerhouse, aggressively diversify export routes, develop petrochemical industries, capture gas, and maximize returns from every barrel...These kinds of moves improve revenue resilience and make a managed REER (prudent strengthening of the dinar) far more realistic. The execution phase is clearly gaining momentum.
5-21-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Most people don't know you can negotiate the rate at your bank. If you fall into certain tiers at your bank as far as a private client with Chase, high net worth clients, which I'm assuming most of us are most likely going to fall into depending on how much currency you own, you get certain privileges...
5-21-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Zaidi is more urgent than the last administration because they told us that the new administration will take Iraq into the next phase/next stage. That means the post rate change era...It's not coincidental. The rate change is reasonably close when you observe their actions...
5-21-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat No, the Oil and Gas Law is not yet passed but it certainly looks like a slam dunk very soon. Article: “PARLIAMENT IS MOVING TO AVOID A “PARALYSIS” SCENARIO AND AIMS TO FINALIZE THE OIL, GAS, AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS LAWS.” Quote: "House of Representatives has successfully completed the reading and passage of 16 laws so far, focusing on strategic legislation related to oil and communications." Nice!
5-21-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] [Reference MarkZ post 5-20-2026]... Mr. C [Mike Cottrell] talked about this on Friday that we are expected to change the values (RV or RI) then make our appointments and make our exchanges before it goes 1 to 1. So after we exchange it will go 1 to 1. But, we already got a higher rate before then. We were also told way back when that the RV (revaluation) would occur before the rate goes 1 to 1…Many have spoken all around the world…including Donald Trump that currencies all need to go to parity. In order to do that they need to reset the values and then go to parity or 1 to 1...
5-21-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] I have heard most recently [Tuesday]...that exchanges for us in Tier 4b would start...The message was clear. It said Wednesday, Thursday, ...Friday... this week....Let's see if we get notifications...
5-21-2026 Guest Guru Ross Iraqi Central Bank Governor Ali Al-Alaq said Tuesday that there are plans to revalue the Iraqi dinar against the US dollar, stressing that Iraqi funds are not subject to US sanctions. Al-Alaq also announced upcoming talks with the US Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department, notating that both institutions have praised the role and performance of the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI).
5-20-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They've finished everything they need to revalue...Iraq's government formation and the rate change are one and the same...Now that the government is formed the rate is damn close to changing.
5-20-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen It feels to me like the stage is getting set for something to happen. What will that be? No one really knows. I always say things could change at the drop of a hat. With all of this geopolitical high tensions...there's a lot happening right now. It just feels like the stage getting set for something major to happen.
5-20-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence If Iraq can revalue, the next question is whether you can actually convert. Two paths. Iraqi citizens convert through the CBI and authorized local banks. International holders convert through a Tier 1 bank with IMF correspondent standing, opened as a relationship before the rate event.

5-20-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Iraq is at the crossroads. According to the United States the Iran-backed militant must be unarmed. Iraq's continued success, economic success, depends on this happening ...Iraq is still under shadow sanctions. The U.S. still hold over $100 billion of their currency in the United States Federal Reserve Bank...So the United States does have the final say as far as Iraq being able to proceed and progress economically.
5-20-2026 Newshound Guru Pimpy There's two [minister] positions they're bickering over so it's not 100% done yet. There's another step in the process that takes a while. Hopefully they get it done quick because I'm anxious to see what this new PM is capable of doing. I don't know if he's gonna be able to politic as good as Al-Sudani but he does have al-Sudani in his corner. He's very good in the banking sector which is real important for Iraq and trying to strengthen the Iraqi dinar.
5-20-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] ...This is being discussed on Iraqi Television by Iraqi officials...An interesting translation says the first step for the Iraqi economy is printing a new currency. 1 dinar equal to 1 dollar. Nobody panic. A dollar is amazing… ...take the worst case scenario and meeting happened yesterday and its 3 months before the dinar is 1 to 1. That would be in August...I think this is the best news ever and it was watched by millions on Iraqi TV… So this is absolutely something to be excited about. [Post 2 of 2]
5-20-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] …a piece done on Iraqi news about the dinar. Quote: “I have met with the federal reserve and I told them about pegging the Iraqi dinar into US dollar, meaning 1:1 and they agreed that it is a smart idea and they will do that in 3 months. I don’t know when he met with them so we could know when the 3 months expire.” One dinar equals one dollar and they are saying they are doing it in 3 months. And this meeting could have occurred weeks ago…We do not know. IMO This is beyond exciting news. [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
5-20-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They will never be able to go international or get the US sanctions lifted off them if they keep the value of the currency below a penny. In order for them to get sanctions lifted and removed, the value of the dinar has to increase above a penny.

5-20-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man To me the CBI has completed the first evaluation phase of its comprehensive banking reform strategy. It now moving into the second phase with international partners like Oliver Wyman to bring banks up to global standards for full integration. I can't reiterate this enough, this didn't just start yesterday. They've been working on this for a long time...They won't come out and talk openly about a dinar revaluation...If you think that you're getting misguided...
5-20-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Question: "Why is Alaq so adamant about not raising the rate if it benefits Iraqi people greatly?" They don't want the people of Iraq to be released from their hooks and claws. No, you give the people of Iraq purchasing power, they don't need anybody, especially Iran that they depend on too much...Today he made a fool, a buffoon, of himself by admitting the lie... "there's no change in the rate"...The next thing you know after the meeting with Trump and the US Treasury and Federal Reserve, the little weasel comes out and says, that's not what I meant.
5-20-2026 Newshound and Intel Gurus Stephen and Thom STEPHEN: We have Kuwait, they did a revaluation and a post-war re-issuance of new currency in 1991. How many days do you think they gave their citizens to exchange? THOM: 90 Days. STEPHEN: That's what I initially thought it was. Do you know it was 43 days? THOM: I know they closed the window early...They gave 90-day window and because there were some bad actors taking advantage of it, people here in the US, they decided to close that window unannounced early, we're not accepting it anymore. STEPHEN: Yep. You're absolutely right.
5-20-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Governor al-Alaq went on television Tuesday with the clean public denial. No change in the exchange rate. Foreign reserves strong. The CBI is not, in his words, studying the question. It is the 5th time he has said this in 6 months: November, February 12, February 25, April 16, May 19...The repetition is the signal...Al-Alaq confirmed a meeting "in the coming days" bringing the CBI together with the US Federal Reserve, US Treasury, and Oliver Wyman, framed as the path to "transition to dealing in other foreign currencies for banks that have completed all the required requirements." Read it as multi-currency-settlement readiness...Al-Alaq's 5th public dinar revaluation denial in 6 months runs interference until Treasury says go...
5-20-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff You can't just analyze it as a rate change. You have to look at it at the scale of the rate change. This is going to be around 3000% to 4000% [increase]. They're going to want all world markets closed at the time when they change the rate. That's exactly how they did Kuwait's... Sunday morning. Why? Because all world markets were closed. So they didn't have a ripple effect...
5-20-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ The HCL is on the move. They've passed so many peices of it already. It's getting very close.
5-20-2026 Guest Guru Ross The Iran War has Iraq’s Foreign Reserves Under Heavy Pressure — a Signal for the XRP Revolution...Oil revenues are down, yet the country still has to maintain massive dollar stockpiles just to cover imports, service debt, and stabilize the dinar peg. This pressure is exactly why efficient digital solutions like XRP and its on-demand liquidity model were built... XRP shifts Iraq’s reserves from constantly covering the bills to primarily backing the currency itself — providing fuel for a massive revaluation. ...And Iraq is already moving in this direction with a digital dinar.
5-19-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Even though I personally feel that there is a 100% chance the Iraqi dinar is going to revalue in the near future...there are still moments of doubt. Some days I'm like man, am I waiting on something that is never going to happen? ...Am I going to be here in 2030 or 2035 or 2040 still hoping and wishing and praying this is going to happen? I think that's normal. If you're in this investment you have to give yourself some grace and say it's okay to have those thoughts from time to time...There's always a bit of doubt...always fear...especially when you're in a long-term investment like this...
5-19-2026 Newshound Thom Question: "Is the rate required before the HCL is passed?" IMO, yes. the REER will be needed to finalize HCL. IMO.
5-19-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question "What is stopping this from being a lop?" The only reason there would be a lop is if Iraq had horrible inflation. They don't. Iraq's inflation is around 2% to 3%.
5-19-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man I know there's a lot of talk about Alaq being demoted or taken out of the central bank. Not one person has sent me any information that supports that to be credible. To me it's probably agenda driven and slanted. Be very careful on how you read things.
5-19-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 The HCL is a conglomerate of many laws. Surprise, surprise, surprise...they already passed 16 of the laws of the HCL. How many more do they got to go? ...The HCL definitely needs a new exchange rate because at 1300 you're taking about paying the Iraqi citizens pennies...

5-19-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram The Iraqi dinar is different and this is where we made the mistake...The modern Iraqi dinar that we hold today was created after the 2003 war. Iraq printed an entirely new currency system after Saddam Hussein was removed. Since then the IQD has operated mostly as a controlled domestic currency, only inside of Iraq...The IQD has never been freely traded on the Forex market...The Kuwaiti dinar was already functioning in that international arena system before Iraq attacked them...The world only knows the IQD value to be that of what the CBI has placed on it...The Kuwaiti dinar is one of the major currencies in the world. The IQD is an exotic currency that is not freely traded on the Forex market ...The Kuwaiti dinar and the IQD, that's apples to oranges. [Post 2 of 2]
5-19-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram We were very very wrong to compare the Iraqi dinar to Kuwaiti dinar...This is one of the biggest misunderstanding in the IQD community. The Iraqi dinar situation is completely different from what happened to Kuwait...When Iraq invited Kuwait in 1990, Kuwait already had a strong currency that was traded internationally...The Kuwaiti dinar already had real value...Kuwait's currency value dropped because the country itself was under military occupation. But once Kuwait was liberated, its government and banking systems returned. The currency simply went back to its previous internationally recognized value. That is why Kuwait's situation situation is often called a reinstatement rather than a brand-new revaluation. [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
5-19-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The whole reason the central bank has not allowed Iraq to revalue is simply because of the political corruption. The political corruption has been the delay of the rate change this entire time. The #1 delay.

And then the following day it comes out, oh, it's true...But now the USA is directly involved. The Trump administration is directly involved and controlling what they do.

5-18-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Having been invested in the Iraqi dinar since 2011 and having watched all of these years come and go, hopeful that it was going to eventually happen, but not really knowing when and seeing this much movement and this much happen all in a very very short amount of time it just tells us everything we need to know. It is extremely, extremely exciting.
5-18-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Iraq...needs to finish their cabinet posts...Then they need to get to work. Budget, HCL. It is do or die for Iraq.
5-18-2026 Guest Guru Ross "The Major Prerequisite for the IQD to Achieve Stability to Revalue." Iraq is on track to not only diversify away from just oil but diversify the oil flow itself. The Strait of Hormuz is directly tied to Iran and this economic vulnerability being solved was always a MAJOR prerequisite to IQD achieving the stability to revalue. You are going to witness unstoppable progress from here on.
5-18-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat ...the CBI keeps moving ahead with banking reforms. I am not even following them too closely any longer as these reforms, as I am told by my CBI contact, are all part of the White Paper and the White Paper is as done as they need it to reinstate the dinar and go international.
5-18-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Iraq has about $16 Trillion worth of raw materials...Silica, phosphate, sulfur, liquid natural gas, oil, gold...rare earths...as well as...tourism...trains, trucking...
5-18-2026 Newshound Guru Samson Article: "GOVERNMENT ADVISOR : IRAQ'S NATURAL RESOURCES ARE ESTIMATED AT $16 TRILLION"
5-18-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The central bank and the new government are working together as a team. They're trying to create stability. The government itself is trying to remove what has been long-term political corruption. The central bank is noticing that but they have to work together and do this together as a team to make it happen correctly, ethically, fairly, transparency, all that...That's what we're witnessing.
5-18-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen We could wake up tomorrow morning and the Iraqi dinar revaluation could have happened...Me being super conservative with my estimations and predictions I still am looking for a few big things to happen before the Iraqi dinar is officially revalued. I don't think we're there yet. I would love to be wrong. I would love to wake up tomorrow morning and say, I got it wrong and I have never been happier. But I think we're just a little bit off of that happening...
5-18-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Zaidi...is Iraq's youngest prime minister. He is also an attorney, well-educated, handsome, wealthy and intelligent. But he has two major problems. 1. He is supported by the United States. 2. He is tasked with taking guns away from people who want to keep them.
5-18-2026 Newshound Guru Paulette If al-Zaidi is really the "Trump of Iraq" and plans to MIGA, I expect he will start moving quickly...I don't expect that he will be like Sudani regarding the Factions. Sudani was all words and no action...al-Zaidi's government program was approved and so he has not only been given authority to bring the arms in control of the State but he also has an opinion from Zaidan, Sistani and Sadr to do so. Let's Gooooo!!!
5-18-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "In numbers... Iraq continues to bleed its foreign currency reserves amid declining oil revenues" Quote: "According to the Central Bank’s newly released official financial indicators...the bank’s net foreign assets continued their downward trend, decreasing from 125 trillion and 614 billion dinars on April 23 to 123 trillion and 269 billion dinars (about $93.3 billion) by the end of the same month."
5-18-2026 Boot-On-The-Ground Guru Omar [Reference Guru Omar's 5-17-2026 post below] Zaidi's phrase "comprehensive economic and financial reform program" is not causal. It's the same language that is used when Iraq discusses deleting the zeros, modernizing the dinar, announced full digital banking integration, when Iraq coordinated with the IMF on the monetary reform restructuring and he paired it with strengthening our national partnership.
5-18-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Al-Zaidi has been PM for four days. In that time: drones launched from Iraqi soil hit Saudi Arabia, his oil minister confirmed an 89% export collapse, Trump and Xi agreed Hormuz should open but no one is making Iran do it, and his cabinet is still half-empty. The May 27 session — where Interior and Defense get decided — is the next critical date. Until the
militia ministry question is resolved, Washington holds the dollar tap closed.
5-18-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The Finance Ministry. The chair Tehran held for 22 years now has a different name on the door.
5-18-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] OMAR: Television is saying that the 14 members that were voted on and elected by parliament...they have been approved and they are clear of any Iranian influence or backing. It's a fresh start for your government... FRANK: If we're talking about a fresh start for the government without any Iranian influence, then we have security and stability for the new exchange rate, for the monetary reform purchasing power.
5-18-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Look at all the countries that have completely broadcasted the support for this new prime minister. Why? Because it's a clean government...Now you see these convergences over the last week have been amazing...This is a powerful window...We're seeing the pieces of the puzzle come together...

5-17-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Question: "What is your gut feeling this will go 2026?" No one knows the date. We can speculate all day long. However, in my honest opinion, based on the things I am reading, hearing and witnessing, my gut says that there is a very strong chance IQD goes this year. And VND in Sept if everything stays on track. IMO

5-17-2026 Newshound Guru Pimpy What is going on in Iran is huge for Iraq. The oil prices going up hurts us here locally, but it benefits Iraq. Remember I told you they had to have a barrel price to around $70 per barrel. It's way above that.
5-17-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Question: "Is there any information on the estimated price of IQD and VND?" I think IQD will be over $3.22 (likely over $4 imo), and VND will likely be a float (a very fast moving float when it goes). My opinions based and what I have researched.
5-17-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff As long as the US Treasury has removed Iraq from their OFAC sanctions list then all the banks within the United States will start exchanging the dinar. IMO when Iraq revalues the US Treasury will remove Iraq from the OFAC sanctions list at the same time.
5-17-2026 Boot-On-The-Ground Guru Omar On the television we have our prime minister Zaidi. He said we're going to start the next phase. We will see the launch of a "comprehensive economic and financial reform program" that will strengthen our national partnership and focus on improving services and fighting corruption...He said financial reforms can lead to giving the dinar more real value. But he said only if Iraq actually executes the deeper structural monetary reform behind the scenes...The type of reforms Zaidi is talking to us about are the same one that required before any currency can strengthen.

The VND is artificially held in place by the State Bank of Vietnam. And they have a tight grip on it, because they want a lower valued Dong for imports and exports. All of that will change on Sept 21st when the FTSE upgrades them to Emerging Status.
5-16-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Are all countries going to revalue at the same time?" I believe the Iraqi dinar is the only currency that's going to revalue. I personally don't believe any other countries are going to revalue at the same time Iraq does.

It will most likely never happen again. If people want to call you a conspiracy theorist or crazy and this applies to most of us who hold Iraqi dinar because that what we're believing and hoping for that this worthless currency is one day going to be worth a lot more than it is. There has never been something like this that has happened to the magnitude that we are all hoping and expecting it to be.

5-15-2026 Newshound Guru Thom There is more traction on both the IQD and VND since both of these nations elected new Prime Ministers, both of which are former Bankers. And it is moving faster than I have ever seen.
5-15-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Yesterday, Baghdad swore in 14 ministers in a single chamber session...Al-Zaidi is 40, the youngest premier Iraq has had, and Trump personally intervened in April to block former PM Nouri al-Maliki's run at the seat...9 of the 23 posts remain unfilled and the security-facing ministries are among them...Half of the cabinet that runs the economy is in place. The other half that defends Babylon isn't...Within hours of the vote, US Special Envoy Tom Barrack posted that Washington stands ready to work with the new government on "the elimination of terrorism."
5-15-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Do we have a fully seated government? No. Do we have a majority vote for a seated a government? Yes...You need a fully seated government to pass the laws. You still have a "caretaker" government. That's not the goal. That's not what we want. We're getting there. I'm happy with what happened but I want more.
5-15-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu [Response to Guest Guru Trader John's 5-13-2026 tax post below] This is NOT a 525 taxable event. It is a 988 taxable event..."For a U.S. taxpayer, a gain from a foreign-currency position like IQD is usually taxed as ordinary income under IRC Section 988, not as capital gains." (Investopedia) Capital gains treatment is not the default for spot
currency holdings, but it can apply in some structured investment cases or if a valid election is made for certain transactions. So if someone is holding IQD as a plain currency speculation, the default answer is ordinary income treatment, not capital gains. Like I said; You can choose which tax method you wish. [Dinar Guru Note: Consult your tax and asset protection advisors to determine the ideal tax path for your unique circumstances.]
5-15-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The million dollar question - How soon could the rate change?

You can disagree or disagree with me on that...But the rate will only change on a weekend. This coming weekend is the very first weekend within Iraq's history that they have completed every step and requirement to be eligible to revalue. So the soonest Iraq can change is this weekend.
5-15-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen In my 15 years of having been involved with this investment I have never seen the speed and urgency that Iraq is moving with like they are right now...Today is an exciting day to be an Iraqi dinar investor ...14 our of 23 ministers were voted on were confirmed. There's still a little bit more to go. However, he met the limit needed to be met in order for his government to be official...Since 2003 Iraq has never met the constitutional deadline with formation a government. Today signifies the first time in 23 years...If that's not something to get you excited, I don't know what is. It doesn't mean the dinar is going to revalue tomorrow, however, things are moving at a pace and a rate I have never seen before. If you are an Iraqi dinar holder you should be very very excited...
5-15-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Parliament has successfully voted confidence in al-Zaidi as the new prime minister...After weeks of negotiation, Iraq finally has a functioning government...A stable government removes a major layer of uncertainty and give the economic ministries and the CBI operating room that they need. This is exciting because...this political piece has held things back...They're moving forward in a constructive direction. It's perfect.
5-15-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Al-Zaidi is PM. But the cabinet is half-built, the militia ministry battle resumes May 27, and the dinar doesn't move until dollar flows resume — which won't happen until Washington sees what al-Zaidi puts in Interior and Defense. The real story starts now.
5-15-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] What we got from our sources in Iraq...was the new prime minister and...the cabinet of the Iraqi prime minister was to be fully seated and acknowledged as seated...And so... Ali Al zubaidi...is in as prime minister..I do not have confirmation yet as to whether that happened or not from our contacts in Iraq, but we'll see.
5-15-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Of all positions in the cabinet (besides finance minister or minister of the interior) this is definitely also one you don’t want Maliki medaling around in. He will most definitely mess up the current agreements made with Kurdistan and muck up the Oil and Gas Law now on the table in parliament. We need this law done to get us to the reinstatement...He actually wants to stop the Oil and Gas Law because he knows it will bring conclusion to this constitutional requirement, something the US is demanding prior to the reinstatement...This guy is bad news for any real progress in Iraq. [Post 2 of 2]
5-15-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Article: “WARNINGS AGAINST “MINISTERS OF FAILURE”… ADAI CALLS ON AL-ZIDI TO CONFRONT THE PRESSURES OF THE BLOCS AND APPOINT COMPETENT INDIVIDUALS TO MINISTERIAL POSITIONS” ...Yes, they are always filling these high paying govt jobs as favoritism rather that real skill to do a competent job. Is this also why we sit here over 20 years still waiting for the RV? We are about to see it again with Nouri al-Maliki getting either a vice-presidential position or even now he wants the minister of oil, a Zaidi’s cabinet position. Did he horse trade his vote to let in al-Zaidi for this? [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Question: "Will the 3 0’s be taken off the bills out of country? In other words 2.9 million in notes becomes 2900 times 3. That’s nothing. I paid almost that much" The new IQD will have 3 less zeros... The CBI will announce a new rate and people will exchange their dinar notes. Here in the US, we will be exchanging for USD, not IQD so this shouldn't matter to us.
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Milita Man This is a really powerful time for what we're witnessing. Everybody is like, 'How long is it going to take? When's this going to take place?' They're not going to tell you the time or date. And they shouldn't. And they won't. They give us indicators of what's taking place. We haven't seen convergences like this in the history that I've been in...It's an evolution that's been taking place. It's been growing.
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I believe the Iraqi dinar is not an end-all-be-all investment. It is going to be the first investment to happen and it's going to allow you to invest into other assets that's going to be able to greatly multiply your initial seed money that you get from this...
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff They're about to revalue, jump into the international world, expand local domestic trade, all that. Getting everything ramped up, jumping into more of a digital era banking reform. They're jumping out into a brand new world.
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "When will dollar shipments arrive in Baghdad? Washington ignores the Central Bank, while al-Zidi prioritizes it" Quote: "Iraqi authorities are trying to find out the reasons for the delay in the latest shipments, but the Central Bank has not yet received any response from the American side."
5-14-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 You cannot be included into the global financial system at a sanctioned program rate.
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Question: "Should we sell at the bank as soon as the RV happens? Is there guaranteed to be an increase in dinar value at RV? How do I know it’s not going up MORE, and should wait to exchange it?" There are NO Guarantees on anything. And I don't think there will be a float. And I am going on day one if I am able. [Dinar Guru Note: Consult your asset
protection and financial advisors at the appropriate time to determine the best exchange timing or your unique situation.]
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Pimpy This new prime minister, it's interesting because he's an outsider. He's away from politics. He has no political experience whatsoever. The one thing I like about this new prime minister is the fact this man has...not just banking experience, but he has investment banking experience which can go a long ways in helping Iraq with what they're trying to accomplish in reforms in the banking industry and in return help strengthen the Iraqi dinar.
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Take a picture of all these little articles that come out in the last three days and you put it all together and it's like, whoa! [Iraq] is integrating into the global financial system.
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff 100+ trillion dinar physically outside of Iraq...The central bank doesn't give two craps about it pertaining to the rate change...Here's its purpose...Basil III states countries can use foreign currencies to asset back their own country's currency...The United States has half of Iraq's money supply...along with all the dinar that we the people have...Once we go to exchange with our banks, our banks will turn around and give all that dinar back to the US Treasury...The United States is going to use all that physical dinar, the old 3 zero notes, to asset back the United States dollar because it's a Basil III compliance step...All the dinar outside of Iraq will be used for countries to asset back their own country's currency.
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "Al-Zidi's government wins the confidence of the House of Representatives and takes the constitutional oath". Article 2: "The Iraqi parliament grants confidence to al-Zaidi's government and votes on 14 ministers"
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen If you hold the Iraqi dinar you are a very small select spirit led group of people...I don't know what's coming...There's a lot of prophecies or a lot of opinions that we're going to enter very hard times in the near future. I don't know if or when that's going to happen but I do believe this [Iraqi dinar RV] is going to create a lot of provision and abundance for a certain amount of people to get prepared...
5-14-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Question: "Can you explain the connection of the clarity act/crypto passing and the Rv? How are they tied." Because when currencies like the IQD revalue, that wealth has to move somewhere fast. A lot of people in this community plan to move a significant portion into XRP and other ISO 20022-compliant assets. Without regulatory clarity, exchanges can freeze accounts, flag transactions, or outright block large crypto purchases...The RV and crypto legislation aren't directly linked by design, but they're converging at the same moment for a reason. The rails are being built, the laws are being written, and the currencies are being positioned. All at the same time. That's not a coincidence.
5-14-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ Zaidi expected to make progress tomorrow on seating his government, CBI accelerates changes...
5-14-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] ...we're hearing from our treasury sources that we get notified and or exchange Thursday or Friday of this week... that's from a very strong Treasury source... We did hear...that there was a conference call with redemption center leaders...it was enough to say they are preparing for us to exchange either Thursday or Friday of this week... I'm told that we will have all new rates on the screens Thursday... That tells us maybe that is our start...at this point, rates are sort of a secondary thing. We've got great rates...I'm very excited about possibility of us, us going this week...
5-13-2026 Newshound Guru Thom The Iraqi dinar could potentially be an overnighter. We'll wake up tomorrow and it'll be revalued at a new rate. The CBI will just announce it and bam, it'll happen. But the Vietnamese dong, I'm seeing evidence that's showing there's a strong potential that it'll float over a period of time...
5-13-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man The technical foundation for a real effective exchange rate is still being strengthened...The CBI is further along than the public narrative suggests...They are not waiting around. They're actively building the infrastructure needed for a cleaner, more credible strengthening of the dinar when the moment is right...
5-13-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "How much time after the government is formed would the rate change happen?" It could happen within a few days to within the two closest weekends...
5-13-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen There's a lot of current things happening in the world that definitely suggest that the revaluation is a lot closer than we think. I think this summer is as good of a time for it to happen...

Most of the money is being held outside of banks... FRANK: It's been set up by the United States to be as modern as possible...You cannot steal this money anymore.

Venezuela holds some of the world's largest oil reserves. Trump claimed the reserves could be worth trillion of dollars...Venezuela remains one of the most strategically important oil-producing countries in the Western Hemisphere. Its location near the U.S. gulf coast refineries makes Venezuelan crude oil especially valuable to American energy markets.
5-13-2026 Newshound Guru Thom The Trump-Xi summit in Beijing is now the single most important external event for Iraq this week: if China delivers a framework that moves Iran toward a Hormuz deal, Iraqi oil revenue, the dinar, and the 2026 budget all recover simultaneously.
5-13-2026 Guest Guru Trader John [Response to Guru Fnu Lnu's 5-11-2026 dinar tax post below] I decided to re-check...IRS.gov website, & summarize them for you...IRS Publication 525 - Catalog Number 15047D - Taxable and Nontaxable Income... - page 33: "If you have a gain on a personal foreign currency transaction because of changes in exchange rates, you don't have to include that gain in your income unless it's more than $200. If the gain is more than $200, report it as a capital gain." IRS Topic no. 409, Capital gains and losses: " ...For taxable years beginning in 2025, the tax rate on most net capital gain is no higher than 15% for most individuals ... However, a capital gains rate of 20% applies to the extent that your taxable income exceeds...[$533,400]...Net short-term capital gains are subject to taxation as ordinary income at graduated tax rates."

We have the monetary banking issues being addressed in the news toady as the CBI publishes final stage valuations by the international audits for banks and explicit preparation for global financial integration... Then there's the Oil and Gas law on the table...for revenue sharing and long-term stability...and non-oil sectors are continuing to advance. All that's converging at the same time...This convergence is not random. It's the kind of multi front alignment that historically precedes bigger monetary steps...
5-13-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff A 'formed government', I didn't say completed, I said 'formed government' would allow them to be eligible to revalue the currency...They need a majority completion. 13, 14, 15... somewhere in that camp. Again, in order for them to be eligible to revalue they need a majority completed cabinet. Not a full completion.
5-13-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen It looks like the new prime minister's cabinet is not going to go through this week. I'm going to go out on a limb and speculate the government formation is probably not going to fully happen until the end of this month, if not sometime in June...This is generally how it goes in Iraq. They never meet timelines...The only caveat to that being is since the Trump administration has gotten involved we see they can no longer delay like they used to.
5-13-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Question: "In the past you’ve thought $4 for iqd. I respect your opinion, but why so much?" Under Saddam Hussein it was $3.22 and now, after 25 years of rebuilding, Iraq has more assets and resources to back their currency with.

5-12-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu It is true that fees may run as much as 5% but that is usually on smaller amounts of Dinar. The average Dinar holder has one or two 25,000 IQD. They should expect a higher fee.
5-12-2026 Newshound Guru Thom A good friend of mine...works for the IRS in upstate New York. Yesterday he and I have been digging...IRC988...is one of our Internal Revenue manual codes...IRC 988 deals with how the IRS taxes gains and losses from foreign currency transactions. A foreign currency exchange rate gain happens when you deal in foreign currency...and the exchange rate changes. You end up with more dollars than expected...IRC section 988 considers it a foreign currency gain...By default IRC 988 gains/losses are taxed as ordinary income like wages, not capital gains. That means gains are taxed at your normal tax rate... [Dinar Guru Note: Consult your tax professional to determine the ideal tax strategy for your unique circumstances.]

We only have to look at Venezuela to see that there's a possibility that we really could exchange our Iraqi dinars in the US banking system. As we see right now the US banking system is gearing up to be able to facilitate Venezuela's currency...We know that is happening. We can only hope the same pattern would be followed with the Iraqi dinar...

5-11-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu Taxation is offered as a reason for receipts because of what some insist it is going to be a Capital Gains event. IT IS NOT! Taxes may be paid by your choice of two methods. You may elect to count the profit as regular income or as capital gains income and YOU CHOOSE...not the bank and not the IRS. If you select paying capital gains, it means you have some financial structure that is benefited by paying the higher rate and for this you may need a receipt, a SKR, or a TRUST notarized with the date on the document. [Dinar Guru Note: Consult your tax and asset protection professionals to determine the most advantageous taxes for your unique situation.]
5-11-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram I know many IQD investors... are thinking and saying over and over $1 to 1 dinar. People who understand international currency laugh at us because it's just not economically possible. That doesn't mean it can't happen, but it does mean there are some steps in-between that we need to acknowledge as intelligent IQD investors...I'm not trying to burst your bubble...What I'm saying to you is there is some things that must happen before the 1 to 1 could or will happen. I'm not trying to say the Iraqi dinar will not value at $1 to 1 IQD because it very well could in the future but not now and not in the beginning...It has to go through baby steps.

5-11-2026 Newshound Guru Paulette Alaq has done a great job trying to keep the Market rate from exploding and reducing overall corruption. Did you see the articles talking about the reduction in dollar sales. This is clear indication that the (deep state) money laundering through Iraq into Iran and the (deep state) proxy armies has been minimized. Now the next step is getting the (deep state) armed factions under control of the government and/or eliminated. Sistani and now Sadr [Iraq's religious leaders] are in total agreement ...Do you really think Trump would have allowed Iraq to RD/RV---->RI until all this is cleaned up??

5-11-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Question: "Do think the new Prime Minister will be able to successfully implement a new government without the influence of the militias...?" Thom: I do, yeah. I think al-Zaidi has a real shot to do what others could not do. And with what al-Sadr was calling for late last week, I am very confident. But that doesn't guarantee success. And if they don't, they gotta deal with Daddy Trump's refusal to help them any further.
5-11-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen The country of Iraq has literally been used as a money smuggling country all these years...and here we have the Trump administration that is being so proactive, aggressive, in their rebuke and their removal of all of this Iranian influence in the country of Iraq. Why is that important for the Iraqi dinar? Because...all of these [corrupt] people had to be removed before any substantial amount of value was given to the Iraqi dinar. We're seeing that happen right before our very eyes. This is very very exciting.

5-11-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen There's been a lot of talk - Are we going to have to pay taxes, the IRS is going to be abolished? I really hope people edge on the side of caution and put away 40% to 50% because if you are of the opinion that you're not gonna have to pay taxes and you go invest your money or spend your money and then they come knocking on your door, what a discouraging place it's going to be for you. You have this blessing and now you have the stress, anxiety. There's a bunch of things that could happen.

5-11-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu Taxation is offered as a reason for receipts because of what some insist it is going to be a Capital Gains event. IT IS NOT! Taxes may be paid by your choice of two methods. You may elect to count the profit as regular income or as capital gains income and YOU CHOOSE...not the bank and not the IRS. If you select paying capital gains, it means you have some financial structure that is benefited by paying the higher rate and for this you may need a receipt, a SKR, or a TRUST notarized with the date on the document. [Dinar Guru Note: Consult your tax and asset protection professionals to determine the most advantageous taxes for your unique situation.]

People who understand international currency laugh at us because it's just not economically possible. That doesn't mean it can't happen, but it does mean there are some steps in-between that we need to acknowledge as intelligent IQD investors...I'm not trying to burst your bubble...What I'm saying to you is there is some things that must happen before the 1 to 1 could or will happen. I'm not trying to say the Iraqi dinar will not value at $1 to 1 IQD because it very well could in the future but not now and not in the beginning...It has to go through baby steps.

We are more intelligent than that. It can happen, but it ain't going to happen soon. Not even near soon. Be intelligent about what it is you have invested in...
5-10-2026 Newshound Guru Paulette I like what I am seeing in the proposed government program and especially like that Zaidi is following Khadimi's White Paper for needed reform. Recall that the White Paper specifically notes the reforms necessary with the goal of returning the IQD to Forex... Patience, it will take Zaidi some time to get the necessary laws passed and then sent to Parliament for passage in order to eradicate the current armed faction structure. ALL should very happy this morning but certainly not expectant.
5-10-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru Walkingstick The 'White Papers' are a conglomerate of many things the United States put together. It has been a demand of ours for a long time. But prime minister after prime minister have failed us. The White Papers contain the monetary reform. It contains the steps for the HCL. It contains article 140...It contains all the steps that were just handed in that we call the formation of the government of Iraq. It contains the economic reform once the monetary reform is launched. It contains the removal of Iranian influence...banking laws. It contains many things that the United States of America have been wanting this government to do. It was created over the last few years with the IMF, World Bank, Bank of International Settlement, US Treasury, Central Bank of Iraq, with everybody...The United States of America gave this to Sudani, he did nothing with them. Now we present them to Zaidi. And Zaidi with Trump, they are implementing them.
5-10-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Z [Zaidi] is working on the HCL...budget... forming the government all under the direction of Donald Trump. Everything else is just noise...All we're waiting for is the removal of the unwanted names for the minister positions. Not a single Iranian can represent [Iraq] in government ever again...Trump is working on the formation of the government and the security that [Iraq] needs from Iran.

He's not the oil minister but he's the deputy oil minister. He has been caught with his hand in the cookie jar funneling money to Iran...I haven't seen this much movement...and this much pressure to allow Iraq to break free from the grip of...Iran...The USA sanctioned 4 people total...I cannot overstate this enough. We have to get rid of the cancer, all of these bad actors, before the value of the dinar would increase.

I could be wrong…but, I think we will already be paid by Memorial day weekend ... money is moving...And it should continue to move...and somewhere around the 15th...all of us should go to the bank about the same time... Everyone just needs to try to stay calm.
5-10-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat ...any budget for Iraq is based on the price of oil. There is not a dinar rate in the budget...It is not until the dinar is reinstated and the economy grows and has diversified revenue streams, that the Finance Committee can then use the dinar as measuring tool for a budget, thus not one source of revenue that can have a potential to crash the budget, can create stability. And what did the CBI tell us they needed…STABILITY, STABILTY, STABILITY...We are not yet there because Iraq still has to diversify.
5-10-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow]... competent...source in Iraq... said he thought the new prime minister would be seated officially Sunday or Monday, and that 48 hours later would be Wednesday, which puts us into Tuesday /Wednesday for notifications and exchanges, or just exchanges, Tuesday, Wednesday.

This reflects the continued adherence to the fixed official rate adopted since February 2023, which is an important indicator of stability for the market and its expectations."
5-9-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff We've had a lot of false alarms in this. I will admit that. Part of the reason why we've had a lot of false alarms, for one, this is a huge learning experience because we don't have a 'Dinar for Dummies' book revealing every step in this. Unless you know every step, plus...2012 they suggested they were going to do it. 2014 they suggested, December 20th
2020 they suggested they were going to do it...During the first half of [2025] year they were putting out a whole bunch of articles about minting coins... The point is, without knowing every step...it's a speculative unknown investment making it very difficult to study.
5-9-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Similarities between the dinar and the dong: Both currencies are controlled by their central banks. Neither one floats freely on the open market...Both of them have a 'street price'...Both communities have long-term holders that believe the official rate is too low. Millions of Americans are sitting on both currencies for the same basic reason. We believe the real value hasn't been priced in yet...Both governments are intentionally holding the rate down...

Under this section, forex gains and losses are treated like ordinary income, not capital gains. This means that gains are taxed as ordinary income, and losses are deductible as ordinary losses, subject to certain limitations...

5-8-2026 Newshound Guru Thom The top three differences between Iraq and Vietnam: Iraq runs on oil but Vietnam runs on manufacturing and trade. About 90% of Iraq's economy is petroleum...Vietnam on the other hand has Samsung, Apple suppliers, Intel and a bunch of exports that the whole world is buying. Two very different engines for their economies. Iraq has an IMF rate and Vietnam does not...Vietnam's rate is being managed to keep their exports cheap...IQD could move fast and the Vietnamese dong will likely more slow...Vietnam's upgrade catalyst is institutional while Iraq is political.
5-8-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Today Treasury did something it has never done before.

Treasury picked...two days before the floor vote on Al-Zaidi's opening slate of 14 ministers. The timing was the message...Here's what this means for you if you hold IQD. 1310 isn't moving off its peg...while Iran aligned assets sit inside Iraq's institutions. Treasury just pulled one out. Each name cleared takes Iraq one step closer to a rate that finally moves.

5-8-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] So here's a piece that we got from two of our sources in Iraq...the new prime minister for Iraq, who has been already appointed, will be officially seated Sunday or possibly Monday .... Sunday is Iraq's first business day of the week, so I would look for him to be seated and announced...on Sunday. The theory is we need for that to happen before we go into exchanges. The same person that told us Sunday also said we should be exchanging 48 hours later...that would be Tuesday. I think that's very possible.
5-8-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat All these projects we read about from the al-Sudani administration are still in progress and will deliver the benefit we all desire, but just not yet.

5-7-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram The Iraqi dinar is tightly controlled and set and managed by the Central Bank of Iraq not by open forces like the Forex market. This is called a managed or pegged exchange rate. The CBI decides when or if the rate changes. Even during conflict, the rate can remain and has remained the same...
5-7-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu The CBI’s official rate remaining around 1,320 IQD per USD, with budget guidance around 1,300...The IMF says Iraq’s exchange-rate arrangement is a conventional peg, and that the Central Bank of Iraq has authority over exchange-rate policy. A bank rate sheet also shows 1 USD at 1,300 IQD and references 1,320 in the system, which is consistent with a managed official framework...

Washington explicitly demanded al-Zaidi exclude militia-linked figures from cabinet and senior posts before resuming dollar shipments. If this allocation holds, it puts al-Zaidi on a direct collision course with Washington before parliament even votes...If Khazali's Sadiqoun bloc gets a deputy PM slot and two ministries, Washington's "no militiamen in cabinet" red line is crossed...and dollar shipments stay frozen. Al-Zaidi has 72 hours to finalize his list.
5-7-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Historically Iraq has always been slightly above Kuwait. Today Kuwait's about $3.25...What brought the value of the currency down was sanctions. What happens when you take those sanctions off? If it reinstates wouldn't that put it around the $3.22 which is where it devalued in 2003?

5-6-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence There is one variable left moving without a name on it. The Iraqi dinar peg has held through a war, a constitutional vacuum, a cash-pallet halt, and a five-month deadlock. It has held because the daily CBI dollar auction has held. The auction holds because banks the size of Al-Janoob have routed the parallel volume. Treasury just priced the parallel route. Everything in the room got named this week. Except the IQD peg.
5-6-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Trump is the president of the United States of America. You don't think he knows you have dinars? You don't think he's counting? You don't think he's formulating?
5-6-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu Iraq is still in its infancy of economic diversification. They are doing all the right things in their own slow little way but never the less, it is getting done.
5-6-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram We do not know if the Iraqi dinar currency adjustment is on Trump's radar. There is a lot of hype online about this subject, but...no documented evidence to support it. However we do have evidence of what the US government did for another country late last year. Article: "US buys Argentine pesos, finalizes $20 billion currency swap" ...There
are a number of ways the US Treasury could support conditions that strengthen the Iraqi dinar.
5-6-2026 Boot-On-The-Ground Guru Omar The Gazette framework confirms Iraq is restructuring the FX system. They do confirm the CBI is preparing for a policy shift. It does confirm that the exchange rate discussions are now official and public. And it confirms a major monetary transaction is underway...
5-6-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Not every position [of the new PM cabinet] has to be filled. They just need a majority completion approval in parliament.
5-6-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen The new prime minister is expediting the process of getting his entire cabinet seated. It's supposed to be on the 27th of May. He's actually going to have his entire cabinet seated and ready for vote before parliament by May 9th which is only a few days away...
5-6-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Alaq names the architecture that would carry a new rate is already 95 percent built. The Finance chair decides the rate...al-Alaq did not need to say "the rate is changing." He said something more dangerous. He said the architecture that would carry a new rate is already 95 percent built.
5-6-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] OMAR: The Iraqi Gazette released new exchange frameworks and monetary directives... The gazette only prints final legal biding decision, not rumors...We don't know why this is happening...This is the first time the Gazette has openly referred to exchange rate discussions which analysts consider unprecedented. FRANK: The gazette is talking about which way the value of the Iraqi dinar is going to go...The gazette has never done this before. It's not like they're jumping the gun. It's more that they're trying to tell the truth.
5-6-2026 Guest Guru Ariel Everything is converging at once. The old system is being strangled by its own contradictions, and the pieces for a real Iraqi Dinar revaluation are snapping into place with ruthless precision...The revaluation will not come through some magical CBI press release. It will come through this perfect-storm alignment: stable government, HCL passage, oil revenue flood, gold anchoring, cashless infrastructure, and international bond/capital inflows that create genuine demand for the dinar. Once the rate strengthens and stabilizes (gold-backed, tradable on forex windows), the path for US holders opens through compliant American banks.

5-5-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 Everyone in America, everyone in the world, knows that once [Iraq] sits the government, the potential to expose your new exchange rate is extremely high especially when they were talking about the budgets...
5-5-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The HCL...splits oil revenue between Baghdad and Erbil. That split has been the missing piece for years. Lock the split, and Iraq's books become predictable. Predictable books unlock the global lenders. Global lenders are what reprices the dinar. Clean US rails on one end. Iraqi revenue sharing on the other. THAT is the system the rate moves through... Pass the HCL. Let the liquidity flow.
5-5-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff I live in the world of digital security...digital security based automated systems is what I do. Very computerized. I work in the world of automation...Security is always on my mind. When you're wealthy you're better off not telling people...You don't want to let people know you're rich. You're best off just living your low-key conservative life... After the rate changes I will have a very simply way I operate...But I will be living life to the fullest.
5-5-2026 Newshound Guru Thom Question: "B of A doesn’t buy dinar. Do we need find a bank that does and establish a relationship with them before the RV?" Thom: At the moment, no one is. And you don't want them to. Not at this current REER. However, I have done plenty of business with B of A and they will exchange anything on FOREX. So when it goes live on FOREX again, they will.

5-5-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen People ask me, could it happen this month? I don't know. I hope it does. But I think between now and the 4th of July is a realistic time frame...The most important thing and the most encouraging thing is that things are constantly moving forward. We are seeing so many things happen. We're seeing the pressure put on Iraq that I have never seen before in all my years invested in this currency.
5-5-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Iraq is better insulated than the headlines suggest...The situation around Iran and the Strait of Hormuz remains tense. Absolutely. But Iraq has clear advantages right now because of the diversification, because of the resilience they've built...Higher oil prices...are providing a short-term revenue buffer...but the whole time they're making money...Alternative routes and domestic gas, electricity efforts help offset any temporary disruptions...They're building resilience constantly.
5-5-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "Iraq, which leads the world in the number of banks, is the weakest in terms of economic influence" Quote: "Despite having more than 70 banks, Iraq's banking sector remains among the weakest in the region in terms of economic impact, financing capacity, and level of trust...as a large part of these banks does not work as a financier of projects or a supporter of productive activity, as much as they are linked to limited activities that revolve around the state, liquidity and foreign currency...If the country embarks on genuine reform encompassing governance, oversight, digital transformation, building trust, and linking banks to the productive economy, Iraq possesses the market size and domestic demand to build one of the strongest financial sectors in the region."
5-5-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu There will be no gradual increase in value (FLOAT). It will be established all at once and stay that way for a very long time. The CBI has stated there will be no float. Once Iraq is through handling the unbanked Dinar, they will commence our exchanges. This is likely not going to happen for another year because they simply do not have the infrastructure set up yet.
5-5-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] OMAR: An economist on television and says the significance of the fact that the [market] exchange rate is dropping in our country is good because once it gets close and starts hugging the official rate, 1300, it's going to be so much easier to drop the three zeros...Then he said if we do that then it would flush out the parallel market because the dinar would have strength, then people would use the dinar. FRANK: That's exactly what's going to happen. That's why the economist is saying this over again to these people. This is amazing...We all understand the logic of the monetary reform. We know the purpose is to add value, purchasing power. What he tells you today is absolutely 100% true.
5-5-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence The Sin Dialogue Forum opens with one speaker...al-Alaq told the room cash imports of US dollars into Iraq have been cut from 14 billion to 4 billion. He said roughly 95 percent of dollar sales now move through the electronic platform, not through the cash currency-auction window that existed a year ago. He called the current financial situation less severe than 2014. He confirmed dollar transfers are covered daily without interruption, despite an oil-export halt that should be tightening every reserve in the country...The quiet work is not slow work. It is hidden work, by design.
5-5-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The government formation is much farther along than we should have expected... Article: "60% of the ministerial lineup for the new government has been completed" ...Very good to see they're farther than you and I were privy to know.
5-5-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat If al-Zaydi [Iraqi Prime Minister-designate] takes the appropriate steps toward dismantling the PMF, and any terrorist groups operating in Iraq, then parliament passes the Oil and Gas Law (which they already told us is a priority in this new parliament) we could be into some smooth sailing towards the reinstatement process to move ahead.
5-5-2026 Newshound Guru tishwash Article: "Following the arrival of a new shipment of dollars, an economic expert predicts an improvement in the value of the dinar." Quote: "The arrival of this dollar liquidity will contribute to improving the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar next week."
5-4-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Community Comment "I'm seeing people say banks still won't take it after it revalues." Banks will take it...once the US sanctions come off. The US sanctions are nothing more than a form of collateral to ensure Iraq revalues. If the sanctions don't come off, the US won't get paid. The US wants to get paid in this more than you and I do. The US has tied up trillions of taxpayer dollars in this...Trump is a money man, not a politician. Trump wants to get paid. He wants Iraq to revalue. Why do you think you now have a "Trump Jr." as the nominated PM in there?
5-4-2026 Newshound Guru Samson Article: "WITH A RECORD INCREASE, IRAQ BECOMES THE FOURTH LARGEST OIL SUPPLIER TO AMERICA,
SURPASSING SAUDI ARABIA AND COLOMBIA"
5-4-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Saturday at the Sin Dialogue Forum in Baghdad. The governor of Iraq's central bank, Ali al-Alaq, told a room of decision-makers one phrase. "We are working quietly." ...Here is what the room got told next. Cash dollar imports cut from 14 billion to 4 billion in 12 months. 95 percent of dollar sales now move through the electronic platform. Foreign transfers covered daily...79 commercial banks queued behind it for digital banking licenses. Note, this is not a status update. I would more appropriately classify as a plumbing diagram...The wholesale rail is built. The retail rail is loading. Treasury can audit, sanction, and switch the platform off bank by bank. Meaning a clean IQD runs through pristine rails on both shores. That is the difference between theater and architecture. Seat the chair. Pass the budget. Move the rate. 23 days.
5-4-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 The HCL requires a new exchange rate...The HCL needs in order for it to function a rate that is different from 1300...If it didn't they would have used 1300 a long time ago.
5-4-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I want to stick to the truth. I want to stick to what's practical, what's realistic. Everything I am seeing as a dinar investor and having been invested in this for the last 15 years, things are looking extremely positive. There is a lot of pressure on the country of Iraq. Everything is working in our favor.
5-4-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Is it messy? Is it still noisy? Of course it is. It's also seemingly slow...Iraq's practical reforms and their economic work is still pushing forward with real momentum. Are they going to hammer out the political side of things? Absolutely. Every country goes through these types of things...
5-4-2026 Newshound Guru Thom A few people were asking me two questions tonight: "When does the IQD revalue?" "How high will it go?" Those are the wrong questions. The right question is: what do you do the day it happens? Because if you don't have a plan, the blessing becomes a burden. If you don't have that answer yet — you're not ready. Don't Blow The Blessing.
5-4-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "Was al-Zaidi's selection an American deal to advance Washington's interests in Iraq?" Quote: "The selection of Ali al-Zaidi for prime minister came about through an American deal previously prepared in coordination with leaders of some political blocs and parties to manage American interests in Iraq according to the Trump administration's plan, after its objection to the nominations of Nouri al-Maliki and Mohammed Shia al-Sudani."
5-4-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Start preparing now for the uptick in exotic currency, the IQD and the VND and talk of the BRICS currency over the next two years. Start preparing for that now. Watch the small steps each currency is making to better understand what could happen in 2028 if the Trump administration doesn't intervene.
5-4-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu Since the 2025 Basel III “Endgame” revisions took effect, banks have been incentivized to increase physical gold holdings while sharply reducing reliance on “paper” gold...The key change is treating allocated physical gold as a Tier‑1 high‑quality liquid asset (HQLA), marked at 100% of market value, rather than at a 50% discount as before. Gold upgraded to Tier 1 / HQLA: As of July 1, 2025, U.S. and many other internationally active banks can count physical, allocated gold at full market value toward Tier‑1 capital and liquidity coverage ratios (LCR/NSFR), similar to cash and sovereign bonds...The Dinar will only be partially gold backed like every other currency in the G-20 per Basil III.
5-4-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Things are looking very good. Most likely during next week to announce the lineup of the ministers and have it ready for a vote as well within two weeks. If they can get that done, that means they're positioned to possibly revalue the currency in the second half of May. We've got to watch this movement very closely.
5-4-2026 Newshound Guru Samson Article: "IRAN WELCOMES AL-ZAIDI'S APPOINTMENT AS PRIME MINISTER : WE SUPPORT IRAQ'S POLITICAL STABILITY"
5-4-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence May 27 Iraq votes on the cabinet that decides if the rate moves. The Minister of Finance controls Iraq's budget and where oil revenue goes. Iran-aligned blocs holding that chair means the books stay under Tehran's thumb and the rate stays put...al-Zaidi needs 167 votes. The Finance Minister is the prize. Whoever walks out with that seat decides the rate.
5-4-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] OMAR: Alaq is saying, 'I've not said anything about changing the rate, that's all just on social media, it's in the media of Iraq, we still need stability and we're not going to risk the changing of the rate' says Alaq. FRANK: If Alaq continues to insist there's no rate changing, then you can take this to the bank, he will be gone very soon. Mark my words. OMAR: Alaq has made it clear...They will work with the government but he runs the CBI. FRANK: He is delusional...The board of directors are the ones that run the CBI and they answer to the IMF...WB. They even work with the US. This man is definitely gone. Remember I told you that.
5-4-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ Comments: Rumor is the dinar rate will be $4.81...We aren't going to know the rate till we're standing before those running the exchange. Anything before then is a guess! IMO. MarkZ: Exactly.
5-4-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Article: "WHY DOES IRAQ FAIL TO ACHIEVE SELF-SUFFICIENCY DESPITE ITS RESOURCES?" Quote: "Iraq continues to rely heavily on imports to secure its needs for basic and consumer goods...despite the availability of natural and human resources." We can clearly see opportunities are wide spread in Iraq for investors to come and work with them to develop these resources. But will they come under a climate of instability with Iranian influences abound in the government? But president Trump has a plan to turn this around but he first needs SECURITY and STABIITY.
5-3-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "Are they still working on 'deleting the zeros'?" Deleting the zeros does not mean anything regarding the exchange rate. What it means is they have currency notes with three zeros, like a 25,000 note. It means to replace a 25,000 currency note with a 25 note. In other words a redenomination...But I have a fair amount of articles that state the two currencies will coexist together at the same value...Let's say the dollar value against the dinar is $3.00 for easy math...Two currencies coexist simply means a 25,000 not would be wroth $75,000 after the rate change and a 25 note would be worth $75...IMO they'll phase out the large three zero notes and give everybody 90 days to get them turned in and exchange.
5-3-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence al-Zaidi was nominated on April 27 by the Coordination Framework. He is the Prime Minister-designate, not the confirmed Prime Minister. The cabinet vote is May 27, and he needs 167 votes from the 329-seat parliament...Until 167 votes land, he runs no executive office.
5-3-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] OMAR: TV has this from the CBI..."We will cooperate with the new government." FRANK: So much is happening so quick...You know what the new government wants? A new exchange rate...Alaq IMO is scared because he has seen what Trump is doing with many in your country, in Iran...Alaq knows the speed of the government being set is going to trample right over him if he does not cooperate and release the new exchange rate...Alaq is capitulating because he is trying to survive.

5-3-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen It's been a pretty exciting week. We are waiting for the formation of the government...It could be done any day, but...the new prime minister nominee has 30 days to get that completed... He's been meeting with the CBI governor. He's been meeting with the Finance Minister. It seems like he's very aggressive with going after a lot of the monetary policy in Iraq. As dinar investors and holders that's what we want to see. All good things. Things are moving and working in our favor.
5-3-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu Technically, the IQD is already on FOREX so the proper question is: Is the IQD broadly tradable yet, not is the IQD on FOREX? ...There was a time when it was completely absent but that was quite a while back. With crypto legislation in the final stages of approval (Clarity Act) it will be imperative for Iraq/CBI to get their banks crypto-compliant so all banks will be able to access the CBI and FOREX via a bridge currency such as XRP. My Singapore connections tell me...Iraq's banks...haven't completed this important step. This will be essential because using a bridge currency will make it very simple to go to any bank on any day and take care of your exchange with settlement happening in seconds.
5-3-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Al-Zaidi’s success depends on how he balances...competing interests and sets clear priorities. The US support is real but conditional, as Washington is watching closely for progress on stability, economic reforms, and limiting militia influence. I see this as...a test of whether al-Zaidi can turn political deals into an actual functioning government. US support is helpful for stability right now, but it comes with expectations. Al-Zaidi has a tough balancing act ahead of him. The political side remains messy, but the foundational economic and infrastructure work keeps moving on.
5-3-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram If the Trump administration establishes a timeline to help Iraq adjust its economy or its currency, it will happen in the next two years. Trump leaves office on the 1st of 2029. Iraq must get control over three things: 1. Corruption, which it is now doing. 2. Disarmament of Iran-backed militants. 3. Control over its currency, which the CBI is actively doing.

5-3-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The United States is the last final only remaining country that still has sanctions on the country of Iraq. Notice how Iraq's new prime minister nominee is a "Trump Jr.". He's a businessman. That's because the US is having tremendous involvement in helping them form their government to achieve and remove political corruption and achieve political stability. They get a "Trump Jr." in there, unbiased, non-politician businessman.
5-3-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence No confirmed PM, no HCL shepherd. No HCL, no rate, no RV...Iraq is assembling the political end. The US is assembling the financial end. Cabinet by May 27 unlocks HCL. HCL unlocks the rate. The rate clears into the US plumbing finishing in May. The CBI's "working in silence" posture is reserves-protection, the same posture al-Alaq ran in 2014 when the room got tight, which says the bank is preparing the balance sheet for whatever the cabinet ratifies.
5-3-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 There's no other way in the world that the CBI would again be receiving American dollars right now if we did not have the guarantee of a new exchange rate. IMO that is the strongest proof ever...

5-2-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu [Response to Guest Guru Ariel's 5-1-2026 UAE/currency revaluation post below] What the UAE did by rejecting OPEC had nothing to do with currency revaluation. This action was taken so they wouldn't be under quantity restrictions and forced to use the USD as a medium of exchange. We must all look at foreign events through the veil of reality and not what we wished it meant. Iraq, and most likely Iran, are being prepped as high quality trading partners, using accepted International Trade Practices.
5-2-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Will this happen tomorrow? Will it happen this month? Next month? By summertime? By Christmas? No one knows. I they tell you they know with 100% certainty, they're not being truthful. I think it's very important to keep a level head when it comes to this.

The economists, educated people, will tell you that that's not possible because Iraq would go broke...That does not mean the central bank of Iraq can't allow the currency to float and that it explodes. We don't know how the international investor community will respond...So our belief is real, but not that "1 to 1" stuff. One dollar to one dinar, Iraq would be buried in debt. They would not survive that kind of exchange between the US dollar and the Iraqi dinar. Don't get upset if we're looking at 10 cents. If you've got a million dinar, don't laugh at a hundred grand. If you do the right things with a hundred grand in five years, you could have a million...

Trump said...'with our help he won'...He made it clear, we helped this new guy get elected. So regardless of...what the rumors are saying about him or he has Iranian ties, Trump repeatedly says...we were involved in getting him into this position and Trump strongly supports this decision by Iraq to have this new prime minister.

5-2-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Article: "President Trump personally called Prime Minister designate Zaidi to congratulate him." He extended an official invitation to him once the new government is formed...This is a good indicator coming from the United States, all the way to the top, after weeks of applying pressure to encourage a functioning government. Washington is now shifting towards engagement and support of Iraq. It gives Zaidi early legitimacy and helps reduce short-term external friction during the transition. I think he's got a lot.

The question now is will Al-Zaydi also betray the Iranian led majority block and instead look out for the Iraqi people and continue al-Sudani’s work? I believe this may be the case and so we wait and watch.

4-30-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Some of us have been involved in this since we occupied Iraq back in 2003. Some of you might have gotten invested a few years ago, maybe a few months ago. I've been invested in this for 15 years. Ever since the day I invested, I have been following the news....As non-hypy as possible and this is not hopium to make you feel good, I can honestly say in all of my years of being invested in the Iraqi dinar I have never seen such movement and pressure that I am seeing right now with what the USA is directly and indirectly doing to the country of Iraq.

4-30-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu President Trump has rejected Iran's latest offer...The Straight of Hormuz is now closed again and seeing it's slowest day since the war. The Iranian Rial is almost worthless. $720 USD is now worth One Billion Rial...This all bodes poorly for Iraq as their oil revenues will bottom out for the time being...Iraq's weak political system will be put to the test and this guarantees there will be no RV any time soon. War and the lack of a working government equal maximum instability which will not be acceptable to the IMF. They are driving this train like it or not.
4-30-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The budget can't get approved till the new currency value exists. It's a law. All aspects of a law have to exist for them to approve it, which means the currency value has to exist because the budget is calculated off the currency value. So, that has to exist before it can get sent to parliament for approval. That's the reason they told us about a month ago that the budget would get approved after the government is formed because when the government is formed they they get a change of rate, then proceed with a budget approval.

4-30-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Even with the current political mess and regional tensions, Iraq's reforms continue to move forward regardless. The push to expand electronic payments is gaining real momentum. This is vital work being done in the background, as it helps reduce dollarization, brings more of the informal economy into the formal system, and opens up new “virgin” Iraqi markets for small businesses and the unbanked population.
4-30-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Baghdad's reading is not Washington's. The Coordination Framework picked a businessman...He has never held public office. He has never run for one...Iraqi-press channels...are reading the pick as the coalition buying itself another negotiating cycle. Sudani's bloc and the Framework's larger blocs both expect al-Zaidi may not clear the 167-vote confidence floor inside the 30-day window. A failed nomination resets the constitutional clock under Article 76 and hands the coalition another month. Washington signs the chair because the man in it is personally clean, and Baghdad picked the same man because he is structurally disposable. Neither side expects the cabinet clock to close their problem in 30 days.
4-30-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat The ending to this election saga may be finally here. There is a new nominee outside of al-Maliki or al- Sudani. Will he survive the vote in parliament? It appears he has the confidence of the US government, so this is a good start... will he serve the people and support the necessary reforms and grow the economy and work with US Washington over these next four years to make moves towards the reinstatement of the dinar? (Stability part for the RV)...Will he support Washington’s desire to remove the PMF and other associated terrorist organizations from Iraq (Security part needed for the RV).

4-29-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu This notion that there are secret "BONDS" which have an arbitrary maturity date is just more DINAR MYTHOLOGY.

4-29-2026 Guest Guru Ariel Foreign investors buy local bonds → they need local currency to settle→central bank prints or releases more local units → supply/demand imbalance pushes the currency stronger in the short-to-medium term. This is textbook revaluation pressure, not fantasy. Vietnam is running this playbook right now. They are flooding international markets with bonds, strong in capital, and watching the Dong strengthen as money floods in. This is not random. It’s coordinated... Iraq is under the exact same mechanics...When Iraq sells sovereign or reconstruction bonds internationally (already happening quietly through backchannels), foreign capital pours in, forces dinar demand, and compresses any remaining resistance to a strong, tradable rate...

4-27-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram The Central Bank has been reducing the amount of dinars in circulation. That one factor should tell you that sooner or later they're coming for our Iraqi dinars. Less currency floating around means less pressure on the exchange rate...Iraq still has strong oil revenue...Iraq has been exploring oil by truck out the back door across the border. Now Iran is allowing Iraqi oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz... And finally, Iraq has been cracking down on the black market dollar sales. They prevent the unofficial exchange rate from drifting too far away from the official rate...The central bank is actively controlling supply and demand and access to dollars every single day and that's the bottom line...The IQD is not a free market currency. It's a managed currency.
4-27-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu [Response to Guru Sandy Ingram's 4-24-2026 Iraq's money Post below] This money has been kept at the New York Federal Reserve Bank since the sanctions were applied. When Iraq was acting like they had good sense, the USA was quite generous and lenient with allowing withdrawals, but Iraq has been acting like a defiant 2 year old for about a year or more now and if the USA was being technically intentioned, they would only let them have enough money to buy food and medicine which has historically been the rules of the Trust...These people...cannot play by the rules. They must submit and realize...if they want any slack at all, they will do exactly as Trump says....I told you the RV would be over a year away...I used deductive and empirical logic and assumed their faulty electoral system would function like normal...which is often, NOT AT ALL!
4-27-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The closer we get to our..."big event", the news is going to be a lot more misleading than you've ever witnessed...It's by design. It's how they keep us from understanding and keep the confusion alive of what's going on...

4-27-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Monday morning Iraq woke up outside its constitutional window. The Article 76 shot clock ran out the night before. The Coordination Framework's consensus name, Iraqi Intelligence chief Hamid al-Shatri, was rejected by Maliki's bloc late Sunday. Empty bench. Shot clock at zero. Second constitutional breach of 2026.
4-27-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen We are at a very critical crossroads here. It's time for Iraq to either piss or get off the pot...We are either going to see a revaluation or redomination in the near future or their country goes to complete chaos and backwards by decades. Those are the only options. The USA is pressuring them like I have never seen them pressure them before to act and do something...I truly believe everything is preparing for what we have been waiting and believing for which is an Iraqi dinar revaluation.
4-27-2025 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat ...right now, today you can go on FOREX and see the trends for the Kuwaiti dinar...1 KWD is equal to $3.24 USD. Yes, the KWD is the strongest currency in the world. Take a look at the assets of Iraq as they more than double that of Kuwait. Yes, Iraq right next door to Kuwait. Why would anyone doubt that the IQD could possibly come out on a reinstatement at $4.80...

4-26-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu Article: "Moody's has changed its outlook on the Government of Iraq to negative from stable and affirmed the long-term issuer ratings at Caa1...The change in the outlook to negative reflects rising risks to Iraq's credit profile stemming from the conflict in the Middle East, as risks to energy flows and the security situation remain elevated." This verifies my contention that the war is and has caused serious degradation of the economic outlook for Iraq. Two steps backwards.
4-26-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen If you are an investor in the Iraqi dinar, you should be very encouraged and feel very positive about what the investment that you hold. I know I am. I believe we're going to see some major movement and some major change in the near future.
4-26-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Let me tell you how this is going to break down between the Central Bank of Iraq's website and Forex.

4-26-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram The Strait of Hormuz...What would happen if and when oil hits $200 a barrel? The Iraqi budget wouldn't just balance, it would explode in a massive surplus. Is this the event that would trigger the IQD currency adjustment? Iraq's economy depends on oil and their budget will balance if oil is priced at $70 per barrel. If oil goes to $150 to $200 a barrel, Iraq's foreign reserves would double within months. We already know they have $100 billion in foreign reserve in the United States...This is not a pie in the sky assessment. This is an assessment global economists can clearly see and now you can see.
4-26-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu Article: "Cylinder Seal...proposes a Digital Iraqi Dinar (Digital IQD) as a sovereign Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) designed not merely as a modern payment system, but as a direct instrument of economic and trade policy." This is just as I told you. Iraq will use the CBDC for trade and payments. The citizens will still have the paper Dinar for commerce in country. The next step is to redenominate the Dinar and require the citizen to exchange the three zero notes for the new currency and only have a very short window to do so and at the same time the window closes, the RV will take place giving the citizens spending power and we will then have three zero notes worth the RV rate even though our notes will still have three zeros. This could take some time, perhaps additional years.
4-26-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen This past week we have President Donald Trump directly getting involved and halting $500 million US dollars from going to the country of Iraq...Iraq operates pretty much on the US dollar because the Iraqi dinar is essentially worthless. So their country is flooded with US dollars. A lot of the US dollars that have been flowing to Iraq since 2003 have been directly sent to the country of Iran. This is why...the entire Iranian regime coming down was such a critical and massive step for Iraq to break free from their stronghold and be able to become independent and revalue or reinstate they currency which is what all of us investors are hoping for. We're seeing it all happen before our very eyes.

This is the second time that such a shipment was delayed since the Iraq war began in February. The money is Iraq's own money.

4-25-2025 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat It appears that there are still some doubters about this investment in the Iraq dinar. With my knowledge and study of the revaluation of the Iraq dinar I do not think, but I know, this dinar is going to revalue soon and it will revalue under the Trump administration. All Chapter VII sanctions are gone as well as all other obstacles except one including the OFAC sanctions which limits trading of the IQD, meaning it is not yet on FOREX or other currency trading platforms. This is the last step and this step is going to happen soon as it has to for the Trump plan for Iraq to get investors flocking into Iraq. I am not saying it will happen tomorrow but my CBI contact recently told me they are already conducting the re-education phase to make citizens aware that this removing of the zeros is coming. Why would they do this now again? My contact is on the committee to roll out the lower denominations when this even occurs. Do not get discouraged...

4-24-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence On Thursday in Baghdad, parliament extended its own term by 30 days. Surprise level = zero. Every Iraqi cabinet formation since 2005 has missed its constitutional clock. The 2018 cycle ran eight months before key ministries were filled. The 2022 cycle ran more than a year before a government stood up...The room parliament walked back into is the one that matters. The 2026 budget is closed...Article 24 blocks new borrowing until a seated parliament passes a law. The oil-proceeds cash pallets through the Federal Reserve Bank of New York are halted. Reserves stress was signaled on Iraqi state television this week. That corners the CBI to two levers: draw down reserves, or reprice the dinar. One of those got a signal this week. The other did not. Well not yet anyway...

If I did not think the Iraqi dinar was going to revalue, I would have sold my holdings long ago and put it into real estate, crypto or something else. I do believe the dinar is going to revalue.

China is under extreme stress therefore the diversification effort in Iraq has severely slowed...Crippled diversification effort all but eliminates any chance for an RV of the Dinar any time in the near future. This is how the Iran war severely affects Iraq and their economic revival so the claims that the Iran conflict has no bearing on the RV are false.

It might seem like, 'oh my gosh the USA is threatening to pull support for Iraq and the country is going to fall apart.' Everything is working together. We are watching a beautify puzzle come together and all of these little puzzle pieces that we are not even aware of as dinar investors, are all coming together.

4-23-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Question: "All this talk about removing the zeros, is that in country only?" No, they can't do things only within country. Anytime the value of the dinar is posted on the CBI website that's publicly global. Nothing's just in Iraq.
4-23-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] There was a real good piece out “Iraq has been ready for 20 years”... It talks about how Iraq has been ready for a long time. But they have not been allowed to because the Deep State has using them to funnel and launder funds through Iran. The author makes a very compelling case how Iraq may revalue in this process going on right now. Very interesting article.
4-23-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Article: “WASHINGTON HAS HALTED DOLLAR SHIPMENTS TO IRAQ UNTIL A NEW IRAQI GOVERNMENT IS FORMED” we learn one of the measures the US is using to threaten Iraq to disarm the Iranian backed militia is to cut off shipments of dollars to Iraq...These current U.S. sanctions appear to be about the sanctioning of the actual airborne flights of paper dollars into Iraq... Will it actually help Iraq more than hurt it in curbing the parallel market since the paper dollars will dry up. Maybe this is something that should have been done a long time ago? It will bring up the rate of the dinar.

I do believe we're in a 12-month window. I believe it most likely will happen in the next 12 months, hopefully sooner...
4-22-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Many...have stated deleting the zeros refers to taking zeros off the exchange rate...Very misleading, inaccurate information...It means taking three zeros off the currency notes. In other words, ending, eliminating, removing three zeroed or multiple zero currency notes. It has nothing to do with the exchange rate. Only the currency notes. Getting them, phasing them out, removing them, getting them out of circulation to replace. They're going to be replacing multiple zero currency notes with smaller currency notes. Why? Because the US sanctions are coming off and Iraq has little to no inflation.
4-22-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 They have officially started the project of the lifting of the three zeros...from the exchange rate to add value to the currency. Here's the problem. They say that all the time...But this is the first time it's being done with Donald Trump.
4-22-2026 Intel Guru Reset Intelligence Parliament backed the Central Bank's monetary independence as a principle. That is a different question from what the banks think of the man in the governor's seat. On the same week the parliament speaker walked into the governor's office, the central bank issued the ninety-page supervisory framework that binds fifteen Islamic bank licences to the International Financial Services Board standard on capital adequacy. The institutional track keeps running under the operator who has refused for a year to touch the rate. The plumbing continues to tighten.

4-22-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu Governor Ali Al-Alaq has described "Deleting the Zeroes" as an ongoing internal technical project. No new banknotes have been printed. No public education campaign has launched. No timeline has been announced. The Central Bank has explicitly linked any future redenomination to achieving economic stability first -- not the other way around...In November 2025, the CBI...issued a formal public statement rejecting rumours of any exchange rate change, stating there is "no intention whatsoever to amend the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar..." This comes directly from the CBI...It is difficult to imagine a clearer official denial.
4-22-2026 Newshound Guru Sandy Ingram Why has Iraq not disarmed the Iran-backed militants? This has gotten totally out of hand. Other countries in the Middle East are calling on Iraq to explain why missiles are leaving Iraq and landing in their countries. This is really serious....How does this affect our investment? ...We are unsure what hold Iran has over Iraq...Religious ties may
be behind the unusual bond between the two countries...As investors, we may need to wrap our heads around the fact that Iran will always be in the picture. Does Iran want Iraq's currency to adjust to a higher value? Probably, but we can't be sure. At least not yet.
4-22-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I have never seen this much pressure ...movement...heat on Iraq...You have President Trump directly calling out Iraq, telling them not to reelect al-Maliki as their Prime Minister. You have US delegations going back and forth to Iraq negotiating with them...Now the fact that the USA has said, 'We are now holding the US dollar over your head, and if you don't comply, if you don't get rid of all the Iranians in your government, we are no longer sending you dollars.' The is a huge huge deal. Probably one of the biggest developments since 2003...I think this is a good pressure we are now putting on the country.

4-21-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen This is going to be a very large wealth event for a lot of people. If you have never managed money before, let alone managed a significant amount of money before, the you're not protected. If you're not wise, if you don't know what questions to ask, if you're not fully prepared, then you're going to be a target. Not using wise judgement you're going to probably lose a lot more money that you initially had to...I think we're closer than ever and having a plan in place is very very critical.

4-21-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen Quite a few people sending me the same article. It is actually a pretty big development when it comes to the US/Iraq relationship...and important for the Iraqi dinar. Article: "Washington has halted US dollar shipments to Iraq until a new government is formed." The US is telling Iraq they want all of the Iranian influence, any Iranian leadership out...We don't want them involved in your new government... The US is holding over Iraq's head saying, 'Hey if you don't...get rid of all Iranian influence and leadership in your newly formed movement then we are no longer going to send you US dollars like we have been for the last 23 years.' This is probably the biggest breakdown of US/Iraq talks in the last 23 years. This is a really big deal...I think this is a good thing...
4-21-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff The US is halting or postponing sending US dollars to Iraq to light a fire under their rear to get them to form the government sooner.

4-21-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Every time the Project to Delete the Zero has come up, the Central Bank has said the same thing: “this is an administrative reform, not a revaluation, and it will not change the exchange rate”. ...this statement was...factual information from the CBI...This is not a revaluation...it is the reinstatement and NOT the redenomination that we want and this is what will get us to the bank. It is this that will bring us the change in the rate of the dinar sizable that we all want and not the Project to Delete the Zeros. ...However, having said this the project to delete the zeros, in the master plan of a revaluation, must precede the reinstatement.
4-21-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen This is going to be a very large wealth event for a lot of people. If you have never managed money before, let alone managed a significant amount of money before, the you're not protected. If you're not wise, if you don't know what questions to ask, if you're not fully prepared, then you're going to be a target. Not using wise judgement you're going to probably lose a lot more money that you initially had to...I think we're closer than ever and having a plan in place is very very critical.
4-21-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff If everything is done with the full government formation by Saturday...There's a very good chance the rate can change this month of April. That's all that we're looking for. We're extremely close to the end of this ride.
4-21-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] On Tuesday articles say there were behind the scenes meetings to confirm the Prime Ministers file. Confirming the withdrawal of Maliki and Abadi. The vote took place with 9 leaders out of 12. Sudani abstained from the vote. Tomorrow they will announce the official candidate for Prime Minister.
4-21-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu As you know...I am a proponent of using Trusts to mitigate taxes...I was recently made aware...our Dinar are classified as Exotic / Collectibles...IRS code 408 (m) has a special taxation amount of 28%...Yes, nearly 1/3 of your Dinar value. The only way I know to avoid the collectible tax is to use a Charitable Remainder Uni-Trust which is an irrevocable trust that is exempt from Capitol Gains taxes. My Dinar are in such a trust...

4-20-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Parliament is publicly reinforcing CBI independence and coordination which reduces political risk and strengthens the foundation for deeper integration into the global financial system. That's what's taking place aside from al the noisy stuff, the Hormuz situation, diversification is still working, still taking place. Investors know this. Nobody's left. You don't see Chevron...Seaman's...those big companies pack bags...

4-20-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "News: The United States halts dollar shipments to Iraq" Quote: "Informed sources revealed today that the United States has halted dollar shipments to Iraq and linked their resumption to the formation of the new government, in a move that reflects escalating political and security pressures between the two sides."
4-20-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff Everything is looking really good. Everything is moving in the right direction as Iran is now out of the way. Iraq is moving forward, getting everything they need to get done to prepare...their critical steps towards revaluing. They're getting all those steps timed with the government formation. Everything's coming together very nicely for us.
4-20-2026 Newshound Guru Stephen I know people who have well over six figures into the Iraqi dinar. They have over $100,000 in the Iraqi dinar, which means they have over a hundred million dinar. Some people I know have 5 million, 10 million. Some people I know have a few hundred bucks worth. We're all in different buckets.
4-20-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu [Response to Guru Stephen's 4-19-2029 Exchange time limit post below] [Guru] Stephen has it almost correctly stated. Iraq will remove the zeroes first, then give the IRAQI's a short time to bring the old three zero notes in or they will be void. Close to the same time, they will increase the value (RV)... immediately after the deadline expires. That leaves the Dinar out of the country, such as us investors, 10 years to redeem our Dinar so they have said several times. The CBI said the new currency and old currency will co-exist for 10 years.

4-20-2026 Newshound Guru Reset Intelligence Al-Alaq's desk is still the place the rate-release decision lands. The parliament speaker aligning with the central bank on independence of monetary policy while the sector publicly loses patience with the operator [Alaq] is the setup for a governor change that leaves the institution intact. Ernst and Young on Rafidain and Rasheed is the clean external auditor that makes the desk succession defensible...The zero-removal graphic on state television is the message the new desk will ratify rather than explain. [Reference Guru Frank26's 4-19-2026 'Three-zero's lifted' image below.]
4-20-2026 Newshound Guru Militia Man Heavy crude topped up about $117 a barrel. That's a big big amount of money over the $70 budget, padding those reserves...They talk about their reserves. They talk about their gold. They talk about all these things. Saleh has been hammering it home. He's been giving reassurances for quite some time. Nothing has changed from that aspect...
4-20-2026 Intel Guru Frank26 The next step is to give the citizens of Iraq purchasing power. How are you going to give the citizens of Iraq purchasing power? By introducing a new exchange rate followed by redenomination with lower notes because the lower notes would replace the three zero notes...They're not printing a new currency but they are educating the Iraqi citizens about a new currency that they've never dealt with before so it's not a shock to the system. Tomorrow they'll tell them even more.
4-20-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: "Currency printing in Iraq: Between financial need and economic risks to the dinar" Quote: "Concerns are mounting in Iraqi economic circles about the possibility of the government resorting to printing money without real backing in gold or dollar reserves. Experts describe this as an 'unsound option' due to its direct negative impact on the value of the national currency and economic stability."
4-20-2026 Newshound Guru Jeff June 20, 2021 they set two conditions for deleting the currency. Article "Al-Kazemi's financial advisor: Deleting three zeros from the currency is an option" Quote "The first condition is price stability and global economic growth, and the second is appropriate stability in political life." They clearly tell you from the central bank, political stability is the number one thing you're looking for as a dinar investor to know when they're going to be ready to revalue the currency...That's why Iraq has been telling you they're going implement the banking reforms after the government is formed because they're going to revalue after the government is formed.
4-20-2026 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] I was told first would come farm claims, then prosperity packages …then bonds and funds like CMKX etc…Then Mr. C. and currencies. The time frame between these are very short…very compressed. I was once told that when farm claims start…maybe 10 days before they get to currencies. I am hopeful this is true.
4-20-2026 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] ...President Trump...had a...post...that was talking about worldly reset taking place...We use the term Global Currency Reset...I believe he was referring to...the Global Currency Reset...the wording he said was slightly different. So there are things like that that are happening.
4-20-2026 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Iraq has been discussing removing zeros from its currency for at least fifteen years. The latest information flooded the news channels last fall 2025... I still truly believe there was a great potential at that time to RV had it not been for the Iranian interference in the 2025 election cycle. This interference is what is taking the election process so long to complete...
