We got another bank story overnight from a wealth manager who is reaching out to clients saying “It is time- get everything prepared” He means to get currency together and make certain they have ID’s updated if needed. He says they are at “Any moment now”.
To me this is really encouraging as a lot of these stories are from bank personnel who used to say…”It’s a scam-don’t do it” when asked about buy foreign currency. Now they are telling me “you were right all along and get prepared”...we will not know the exact timing or the “when” until it actually happens. But they are now openly preparing many of their clients. We are hearing more and more repeat stories about this. But being leaned on hard to not share details right now.

Some opine that there is no such thing as a Redemption Center while others claim to be in contact with such Centers and their personnel. What they (redemption centers) are, is a simple solution to a simple problem.
Many of the large banks in heavily populated urban centers were concerned about having the Dinar traffic clog their lobbies at exchange time.
The solution is to have a separate, off-premises, specialized, Exchange Center, complete with Delaru computer, in the most populated city in each of the 10 federal regions...I haven't been informed of any changes.
