Iranian currency plunges to record low after fresh US move, 8 FEB

  Iranian currency plunges to record low after fresh US move

It remains unclear how funding for Iranian activists and opposition figures would be affected by the USAID decision

TEHRAN: Iran’s currency plunged on Wednesday to a record low of 850,000 rials to $1 after US President Donald Trump ordered a restart to the “maximum pressure” campaign targeting Tehran.

Trump’s order calls for halting Iran’s oil exports and pursuing a “snapback” of UN sanctions on Iran. However, he also suggested he didn’t want to impose those sanctions and wanted to reach a deal with Iran.

The move comes as Trump’s moves to freeze spending on foreign aid and overhaul, or even end, the US Agency for International Development have been lauded in Iranian state media.

Meanwhile, ordinary Iranians worry what all this could mean for them.

“It encourages hard-liners inside Iran to continue repressions because they feel the US would have less capability in supporting Iranian people who seek freedom,” said Maryam Faraji, a 27-year-old waitress in a coffee shop in northern Tehran.

Iranian media say Trump’s cuts could stop the opposition in Iran

The state-run IRNA news agency said that “cutting the budget of foreign-based opposition” could “affect the sphere of relations” between Tehran and Washington.

Newspapers, like the conservative Hamshhari daily, described Iran’s opposition as “counterrevolutionaries” who had been “celebrating” Trump’s election as heralding the “last days of life of the Islamic Republic.”

They then “suddenly faced the surprise of cut funding from their employer,” the newspaper crowed.

Even the reformist newspaper Hammihan compared it to a “cold shower” for opponents of Iran’s theocracy abroad, an idea also expressed by the Foreign Ministry.

“Those financial resources are not charity donations,” Esmail Bagahei, Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman, said during a briefing with reporters. “They are wages paid in exchange for services.”

It remains unclear how funding for Iranian activists and opposition figures would be affected by the USAID decision.

The lion’s share of money for civil society in Iran has come through the US State Department’s Near East Regional Democracy fund, known by the acronym NERD, which grew as an American response to the Green Movement protests in 2009.0  link

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Thursday Night 2-6-25

 Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Thursday Night 2-6-25 


Transcribed by WiserNow

Hello, everybody to the big call tonight. It is Thursday, February 6th and you’re listening to the big call. Thanks for tuning in, everybody all over the globe. Thank you, satellite team for getting it out.

So and thank you for asking Bob is working through his Moroccan flu, and has done a good job of just staying tough through the process, and he’s getting better every day. And thank you guys for praying for Bob and for me, I’m like 98 point something percent totally, totally healed, and I’m just thrilled.

Let’s get into some intel and figure out where we are today. I told you guys Tuesday that we were looking for this to happen Wednesday, which was the next day, right? Today is the 6th  Yesterday was the 5th  And the reason that it didn’t go I’m going to back up a second and give you something that I just learned about yesterday.

There’s a security briefing that takes place twice a day, once in the morning, like between eight and  nine and once in the evening, between seven and eight in the evening.

 Now, we knew this was happening, and the way this the security meeting goes, it goes they rate it as a level one through level 10 and 10 is forget about it. One is okay. It’s good. It’s good to go where we can go.

So what happened is, yesterday, we had intended to go, and everything was ready to release. the Treasury was told not to let it go yesterday. We’re not quite where we need to be, and we’re going to wait until the weekend to get this thing started.

Also President Trump was heard to say on right side broadcasting, and we only know of two people  that hears him say this that he wants us, meaning the American people, He wants us to have money on Saturday. Now that’s his desire for this thing to go for us. Let me tell you where our security ranking is. Right now, yesterday we were at a two. Last night we  were still in a two. This morning, we’re at a two, and tonight, we are at two

Now the security round table, let’s call it, is made up of 16 different people, I know maybe half of them, maybe. And these are people that are very close to President Trump  and close to Scott  Bessent  and everything.

 And we know, we just know some of who these people are. So we’re able to get a little bit of information from them  saying what our security ranking was – they wanted to be at one for us to get started.

We are very close.. There’s also something that I found out today that is really interesting. We have two world organizations. We would call them, maybe world leaders that are part of these organizations. One is the World Bank, and one is the IMF, the International Monetary Fund. Those two organizations have held this up for us,

And we need them to release it. And I believe that even now as we speak, those two organizations  are being dismantled. I’ve been told we’re 95% of the way that those two organizations, World Bank and IMF, are being dismantled. And the theory is that if they keep doing what they’re doing to make that happen, and believe me, they’re gung ho and great guns are getting this done, then we could be ready to go and get notified over this weekend.

Could be Saturday, could be Sunday, and then which case we could start, if not over the weekend, we would start very early next week. Now remember, this is information that I did not even have until today.

And  I found out about the security meetings yesterday  after we already had a Tuesday night big call. So I don’t like surprises very much as a rule, but in this  case it was good, because the information to tell why we didn’t go Wednesday, because we don’t always know the why, and the fact that we could go today and probably won’t go Friday tomorrow, but the weekend is in play .

And again, if we will get a securely briefing in the morning, at around 10 o’clock and I’ll find out whether it’s ia go for Friday night. – Friday evening. And the way this thing worked is, let’s say we were at a one this morning, or we were at a two. Let’s say what would happen if we had been a one, then 24 hours later, we would get our notifications and then be able to set appointments to start.

So because we did not get a security level one, we’re at a level two  –  We have to see what tomorrow will bring, tomorrow morning, tomorrow night, etc, So we’re getting very very close to having the security say, yeah, it’s okay to go. We can go 24 hours later, after we get a one, we’ll be in business and be moving forward. So I think that is is very important.

Now the other thing that I heard about Iraq – has still not put their rate, nor their budget in the Gazette. I believe they’re waiting on Saturday or Sunday to do that. I don’t even have an updated rate on the dinar, because redemption center screens have been down for three days straight.

We know that  the bank screens have been up, and that’s fine, but it helps us to get the rates that are on the screen at the redemption centers. You guys heard what I said about the rate for the dinar that they should be offering us. I said on Tuesday, anybody that knows what a hundo is knows what I was saying, and we should get treated very favorably on the rates of all the other currencies.

So,  yeah, I’m going to say that we’re really in great shape. Rates are the least of our worries. And if you have Zim you’re in superb shape, they will be able to do a lot of projects. And by the way, if you are a Zim holder medical needs, so called dire needs, I fall into that category. You will get precedent. You will get a priority in setting your appointment for the med bed. If you’re a Zim holder and dire need, you’re in really good shape, but you should be seen pretty quickly for an appointment.

Now,  I think that’s the intel that I wanted to bring to you know, there’s always one or two things that I’m not sure over that I can, kind of don’t want to bring out, because it’s, it’s unsure, to me, uncertain how it can say it, but I believe I put out pretty clearly tonight on what we’re hearing and why it is we’re looking at the weekend or exchanges very early next week.

X*X XXXXX wants this to go, but it has to be without impedement, impedement like we’ve had from the World Bank and IMF, and are those, as those are being taken down that should happen for 95% of the way there, According to my sources that knows about those two operations. So we’re getting there. We’re almost there. We should be there by the weekend.

All right, and that’s really what I wanted to say tonight. So from that point on, pray for Brian. For Bob’s healing. Pray for little Stetson, a six month old baby, and he’s still in the hospital. Never made it out yet. Wanted to make anybody else that we mentioned tonight requests, and we’re going to pray that the World Bank and the is taken down as an impediment to us moving forward with What we have understanding is for 95% of the way there, let’s get the rest of that 5% let’s get it by the weekend.

That’s my prayer for tonight. So let’s thank everybody. Sue. Thank you so much. Thank you Bob. Thank you Pastor Scott. Thank you Jamie, thank you satellite team for getting the ball out all around the world, So I’m thankful. Let’s pray the call out, and let’s look forward to a revelatory weekend,

MARKZ: Bankers on Weekend Duty What's Up? @DINARREVALUATION #iraqidinarinvestor #iraqidinar

 


Will Iraq succeed in transforming into a digital economy?, 8 FEB

  Will Iraq succeed in transforming into a digital economy?

 In a move that could change the features of the Iraqi economic landscape, the Central Bank of Iraq announced that the government is working to develop regulatory frameworks to support the transition to a digital economy, with a special focus on electronic payment.

However, questions are being raised about the readiness of the infrastructure for this transformation, especially in light of the challenges related to financial corruption, weak electronic services, and the reliance of most sectors on cash transactions.

While official bodies stress the importance of moving to the digital economy to stimulate growth, citizens and merchants fear the imposition of ill-considered payment mechanisms that may hinder their interests, especially in light of the lack of trust in local banking systems.

Will the government succeed in convincing Iraqis to abandon cash in favor of electronic payment? Or will this initiative face failure as happened with previous projects?  link

  Article:  "The first in the Trump era.. Sanctions targeting Iran's economic lung

Quote: "The US Treasury Department announced on Thursday the imposition of the first sanctions during the Donald Trump era on individuals and oil tankers that help ship millions of barrels of Iranian crude annually to China...

The US Treasury is targeting an oil network that brings hundreds of millions of dollars to the Iranian military, as Tehran brings in billions of dollars every year through oil sales to finance its activities and support Hamas, the Houthis and Hezbollah"
