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 Clare Article: “The Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, Ali Al-Alaq, confirmed that the independence of the Central Bank is “legally achieved but not fully realized in practice,” in a direct reference to the gap between constitutional texts and the financial pressures facing monetary policy in the country”
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.
