🌍 Global Dinar Revaluation Update – Where We Stand Today

Good morning everyone, and Happy Friday (TGIF). As always, many in the community are asking the same big question:

“Are we there yet?”

While no official trigger has fired yet, the information coming in suggests that movement is happening behind the scenes, and the process appears to be event-driven rather than date-driven.


🇮🇶 Iraq Update: Pressure on the CBI Is Growing

One of the biggest questions circulating in Iraq right now is:

“Why does the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) refuse to revalue the dinar in order to balance their budget?”

According to morning chatter:

  • Some sources claim Iraq is actively looking to increase the dinar’s value

  • Budget balancing remains a major motivation

  • Internal and external pressures are aligning


🤝 Iraq & Washington Meetings – Day 3

Meetings between Iraq and Washington are now on Day 3, focusing heavily on:

  • Disbanding or absorbing militias

  • Integrating groups into law enforcement or the Iraqi military

  • Eliminating or neutralizing Iran-linked militias

🔎 Why this matters:
Political stability and security reform are key prerequisites for international monetary adjustments.


💵 Bonds, Banking & CMKX – Quiet but Not Dead

Bond Side:

  • Still very quiet

  • Farm claims discussions expected next week

  • Historical bond context may soon come into focus

Banking / Group / CMKX:

  • No official notifications yet

  • However, money is reportedly moving within some Indian Nations

  • Tribal leaders suggest funding may arrive very soon

➡️ Even though it’s already Friday, positive confirmations are increasing.


⏳ Is the RV Event-Driven?

Many community members strongly believe:

“This RV is definitely event-driven.”

That means:

  • Unknown global or political events may still need to occur

  • All puzzle pieces appear to be present

  • The final trigger may be something unexpected but necessary

🧩 Is this a 50-piece puzzle or a 5,000-piece puzzle?
That remains the million-dollar question.


🏦 Banking Rumors & Global Currency Baskets

  • Reports from the UK banking sector mention De La Rue machines

  • Rumors suggest Venezuela and Iran could return to the first currency basket

  • Some chatter points to:

    • January 16th as a possible RV window

    • Or completion by March

⚠️ As always, rumors should be treated cautiously.


🥈 Silver Market Shock – A Financial System Risk?

Silver is making its third attempt to break above $80.

What’s raising eyebrows:

  • Citi reportedly holding $12 billion in silver shorts

  • Bank of America allegedly holding $3.75 billion

  • Shorts allegedly due this weekend

  • Economists warn a silver short squeeze could:

    • Crash parts of the financial system

    • Force precious metals revaluation before currencies

📉📈 Could gold and silver reset before fiat currencies?
That’s now a serious discussion.


💭 Community Thoughts – Life After the RV

Some powerful reflections from the community:

  • “Someday I’ll be able to afford sitting around doing nothing.”

  • “I’m looking forward to doing more than just surviving.”

  • Gratitude for MarkZ continuing to show up, no matter where he is.

✨ Hope, patience, and preparation remain the theme.


⭐ Featured Snippets 

🔹 What is driving the Iraq Dinar revaluation?

Political stability, budget balance, Iraq–US security talks, and global financial restructuring are key drivers.

🔹 Is the RV date-driven or event-driven?

Most indicators suggest the RV is event-driven, relying on geopolitical and financial triggers rather than fixed dates.

Sandy Ingram Update: US Objectives in Iraq, Iran-Backed Militias & Venezuela’s Strategic Crisis

Featured Snippet 

Why is the US pushing militia disarmament in Iraq and acting against Venezuela?

In 2026, the US aims to reduce Iran’s influence in Iraq by disarming Iranian-backed militias—a critical part of US foreign policy pressure. At the same time, Venezuela’s deep ties with Iran, Russia, and China prompted a forceful US response this year to prevent non-Western powers from gaining influence in the Western Hemisphere. 


Disclaimer

The following reflects Sandy Ingram’s perspective and is interpreted through current events.
This content is informational and opinion-based.
Always consult official sources and experts for financial, geopolitical, or investment decisions.


US Policy Toward Iraq’s Militia Forces in 2026

Sandy Ingram stated that the current administration has committed to eliminating militant groups in Iraq in 2026. This aligns with official US diplomatic messaging that year.

According to a US envoy’s New Year message, the United States intends for 2026 to be the year that marks an end to armed militia influence in Iraq. This pressure includes calls for:

  • Disarmament of Iran-backed groups

  • Restricting weapons under state control

  • Reducing Iranian influence within Iraq’s political and security structures 

These objectives reflect a longstanding push to strengthen Iraqi sovereignty and reduce proxy influence in the region.


Iran-Backed Militias: Resistance, Integration, and Pushback

Militias backed by Iran have historically been part of Iraq’s complex security landscape since 2014. These groups are often grouped under the umbrella of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF), many with deep ties to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and allied factions. 

While some groups have reportedly agreed to cooperate with Iraqi state forces, others refuse to relinquish weapons

unless foreign forces leave. This complicates disarmament efforts and makes 2026’s political negotiations delicate.


Connection Between Militia Disarmament and Broader US Strategic Goals

From a strategic perspective, Iraqi militia disarmament is linked to Washington’s goal of limiting Iran’s regional influence. This strategy includes:

  • Political pressure on Baghdad

  • Diplomatic coordination with Iraqi leadership

  • Encouraging Iraqi state control over security forces 

Sandy suggests that this is partially connected to broader commitments to key allies in the region, such as Israel.


Venezuela: Ties with China, Russia, and Iran Ignite US Response

Sandy Ingram also highlighted another flashpoint: Venezuela’s alliances.

While Venezuela long maintained ties with China and Russia, its deeper relationship with Iran has rattled US strategic priorities, especially in the Western Hemisphere

Recent breaking news confirms aggressive U.S. action in Venezuela:

  • A US operation captured Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro

  • The US signaled control over Venezuela’s governance, at least temporarily

  • Global criticism followed from Russia, China, and other nations 

This unprecedented move demonstrates how geopolitical alliances crossing certain thresholds—especially involving Iran—can trigger direct intervention or intensified pressure .


Why the US Sees Iran Influence as a Strategic Red Line

Iran’s global network includes proxy militias in Iraq, energy and military cooperation with Venezuela, and longstanding political alliances. A deepened alliance between Caracas and Tehran would give non-Western powers a foothold in a region traditionally under US influence.

This dynamic reflects longstanding geopolitical friction over influence in the Middle East and Western Hemisphere.

While Venezuela’s ties with China and Russia alone raised eyebrows, alignment with Iran was reportedly seen as a red line for US policy. 


The Bigger Picture: Geopolitics, Security & Currency Reform

Although Sandy’s commentary focuses on foreign policy and militia disarmament, these geopolitical issues may indirectly affect Iraq’s economic environment and any prospective currency developments.

Foreign security,

military presence,

and external influence can shape:

  • Investor confidence

  • Sovereignty of economic reforms

  • Stability needed for currency policy shifts

It remains critical for observers to follow regional diplomatic developments alongside financial updates.


Q&A – Key Takeaways from Sandy’s Analysis

Q: Why is the US pushing Iraqi militia disarmament in 2026?

A: To reduce Iran’s influence, reinforce Iraqi sovereignty, and align regional security priorities. 

Q: Are Iran-backed militias cooperating?

A: Some have tentatively agreed to integration, but resistance continues. 

Q: Why did the US intervene in Venezuela?

A: Recent actions are linked to containing strategic alliances involving Iran, China, and Russia. 

Q: Does this affect dinar investors?

A: Geopolitical stability can influence confidence and economic reform timelines.

Q: Is this official US policy?

A: Yes — recent diplomatic efforts indicate sustained focus on reducing foreign proxy influence. 


Final Thoughts

Sandy Ingram’s perspective underscores how geopolitical strategy and regional security intersect with long-term foreign policy goals, including Iraq’s internal reforms.

Whether it’s disarming militias or navigating Venezuela’s complex alliances, these moves are part of a broader 2026 geopolitical landscape that may impact economic and currency developments in the region.

Sandy Ingram 

 The current administration has voted to eliminate militants out of Iraq in 2026.  I do believe this is a promise that they have made to Israel in order to keep Israel from, as the kids say, jumping on Iraq.

The Iran backed militia groups have come together in Iraq.  They are telling Baghdad they will not give up their weapons until the occupation ends...As you know the Trump administration has said [disarmament of Iran backed militia] is their goal for 2026... 

Venezuela has deep ties with China, Russia and Iran...As long as they were holding hands with China and Russia the Western Hemisphere didn't get too excited. 

 But when they started holding hands with Iran...the currency administration said, Uh-no, no, no, no, NO! ...These relationships give non-western powers a foothold in the Western Hemisphere traditionally influenced by the US.  The US was not having it.  Venezuela holding hands with Iran was totally out of the question...The US said, 'Ok, you crossed the line.  That's it.  We're coming to get your ass and we're going to bring you back to the US to stand trial.'...Venezuela is a country the world cannot afford to lose, just like Iraq

Mnt Goat: 18 Key Issues, Currency Swap Delays & Why the Iraqi Dinar RV Awaits Political Resolution

Featured Snippet 

Why hasn’t Iraq completed the currency swap yet?
According to Mnt Goat, the Central Bank of Iraq was prepared to begin the currency swap in late December, but political complications—particularly unresolved Iranian-related issues—caused delays. The process is expected to resume once these obstacles are resolved.


Mnt Goat Disclaimer

The following content reflects Mnt Goat’s personal opinions and sourced commentary.
This information is shared for educational purposes only.
Always consult licensed financial and legal professionals before making financial decisions.


The “18 Crucial Issues” Facing Iraq in 2026

An article referenced by Mnt Goat highlights:

“18 crucial issues” that Savaya said would be among the priorities of his mission in Iraq during the new year.

These issues represent long-standing reforms Iraq must complete to fully stabilize its economy and governance.

Important Perspective:

Mnt Goat stresses that investors do not need to wait for the RV for all 18 items to be resolved.

“Of course not… some items are already known issues they have been working on for years.”

This confirms that many reforms are already in motion, not pending future events.


Do Dinar Investors Have to Wait for Everything to Be Fixed?

According to Mnt Goat:

  • ❌ The RV is not dependent on every issue being resolved

  • ✅ Many reforms are parallel processes

  • ✅ Some requirements have been in progress for years

This means the RV is not a “last step” after perfection, but part of an ongoing reform cycle.


The Role of the United States in Iraq’s Progress

Mnt Goat believes the Iraqi people clearly understand one thing:

“The U.S. is there to help continue the progress of al-Sudani’s first term in office.”

This includes:

  • Economic stabilization

  • Government reform

  • Security coordination

  • Currency reinstatement and transition

The U.S. presence is viewed as a support mechanism, not an obstacle.


Currency Reinstatement: A Critical Mission Component

A key part of Iraq’s economic transformation is:

  • The reinstatement

  • And changeover (swap) of the Iraqi currency

Mnt Goat emphasizes this is not optional — it is foundational to Iraq’s modernization and international integration.


Direct Insight from the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI)

Mnt Goat shared important information from a CBI contact:

“Her committee is still waiting for the direction to begin the swap out of the currency.”

Key Details:

  • The currency swap was planned for the last week of December

  • The process was stalled for political reasons

  • The infrastructure and planning were already in place

This confirms the delay was not technical, but political.


Why the Iranian Issue Matters

Mnt Goat’s personal belief is clear:

“It will not occur until this Iranian issue is resolved.”

This aligns with:

  • Regional security concerns

  • Political interference risks

  • The need for sovereign monetary control

Until Iraq resolves these external pressures, leadership appears unwilling to trigger a major currency transition.


What This Means for the Iraqi Dinar RV

From Mnt Goat’s analysis, several conclusions emerge:

  • The RV is planned, not speculative

  • The currency swap was already scheduled

  • Political conditions caused the delay

  • The process resumes once regional tensions stabilize

This suggests timing is conditional, not canceled.


Q&A – Key Takeaways from Mnt Goat

Q: Do all 18 issues need to be completed before the RV?

A: No. Many are ongoing and independent of the RV.

Q: Was the currency swap planned?

A: Yes, it was scheduled for late December.

Q: Why was it delayed?

A: Political reasons, not technical readiness.

Q: Is the CBI ready?

A: Yes, they are awaiting official direction.

Q: What is the biggest obstacle now?

A: The unresolved Iranian-related political situation.


Strategic Insight for Dinar Watchers

Mnt Goat’s update reinforces a critical reality:

Delays do not equal denial.

The RV and currency swap are:

  • Structured

  • Planned

  • Politically sensitive

Once the geopolitical environment stabilizes, the next phase can proceed quickly.


Final Thoughts

Iraq’s leadership is navigating:

  • Domestic reform

  • Foreign influence

  • Regional conflict

  • Monetary transformation

According to Mnt Goat, the currency reinstatement is ready, but timing depends on political clearance, not preparation.

Patience remains the final requirement.

 Article Quote:  "18 crucial issues” that Savaya said would be among the priorities of his mission in Iraq during the new year,

 Savaya just needs to convince the Iraqi government of these things he wants to accomplish in 2026. Do we investors in the dinar have to wait for the RV to get all of these items fixedOf course not...some items that we know 

must be accomplished and are already known issues they have been working on for years already.

   I believe the people of Iraq... realize the U.S. is there to help continue the progress of al-Sudani’s first term in office. Part of that work is the reinstatement and the change over of the currency. In speaking to my CBI contact over the weekend she has said her committee is still waiting for the direction to begin the swap out of the currency. She told me it was planned for the last week in December but was stalled due to political reasons. My personal belief is that it will not occur until this Iranian issue is resolved.

Nader from Mid East: 💰 Iraq Banking & Dinar News That Could Shake 2026! 🌍🔥

Central Bank: The Dollar Is Stable At 1320 Dinars, And The Rise In The Parallel Market Is Due To Demand Outside Banks

 Central Bank: The Dollar Is Stable At 1320 Dinars, And The Rise In The Parallel Market Is Due To Demand Outside Banks.

Economy News – Baghdad  Haider Ghazi, the media officer of the Central Bank of Iraq, confirmed that there has been no change in the exchange rate of the dollar against the dinar, and it remains fixed at 1320 dinars per dollar, explaining that what is being circulated as an exchange rate is only the demand of the unofficial market for dollars outside the system of banks licensed to work in foreign transfers through correspondent banks.

Ghazi, in a statement according to the official newspaper, attributed the main reason for the rise in the parallel market to the customs duty due to demand outside the banking system, noting that the application of the prior customs duty for transfer purposes may have put significant pressure on those seeking cash dollars, and was behind the rise in demand for the dollar against the dinar in the local markets.

He explained that traders are required to bring the customs declaration (customs statement) from the ASYCUDA system before the bank transfer is made to them, adding that on many occasions the Central Bank of Iraq stated that the ways to obtain dollars are through: 

First, external transfers through banks in a systematic and documented manner with all parties, and second, through the traveler's dollar after depositing an amount in Iraqi dinars with companies of categories A and B, and it is received through outlets inside Iraqi airports, as the bank set the traveler's share per month at $3,000. https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=64273
