11-25-2025 Intel Guru Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] OMAR: The CBI said…1310 is not a feasible rate and they said a change was coming. And they said we have a couple of scenarios. The first one is pegged to a basket and it will have 3 times value of the SDR. The other option would be a reinstatement of $3.22 with a managed float. That could reach, they told us, to $4.25… FRANK: The thing that is so outstanding for me is the fact that this is coming from the CBI, not from some financial expert, not from some Iranian politician, not from Maliki’s people. It’s coming straight from the CBI… The impossible is now becoming possible…These are the final steps in the monetary reform of the dinar we have been waiting for so patiently…

11-25-2025 Intel Guru Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] OMAR:
The CBI just made it crystal clear to us Iraqi citizens that they are not planning any sudden depreciation of the Iraqi dinar. They said the rumors of the dinar being weakened to a drastically lower exchange rate are just not true. It is a concern of the CBI that the citizens understood this right now. They said on TV the official exchange rate is holding steadily at 1310 dinars to the US dollar and the banks got things under control with solid currency reserves.
11-25-2025 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] …They will lift the purchasing power by raising the value of their currency. Then they will distribute lower denomination notes. Be sure to listen to the video by Dr. Shabibi as he explains it in full. Dr Shabibi answering questions:
11-25-2025 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Quote from report by Oliver Wyman: “2026 will be on ground implementation – meaning distribution of lower notes and a new exchange rate” We know from former CBI governor Dr. Sinan Shabibi that he along with the IMF are the architects of the monetary reform plan for Iraq…More than a decade ago he said that a major revaluation of the dinar (like what we are looking for) “is best suited to occur in the beginning of the fiscal year and would most likely also be coincided with a reinstatement to FOREX”.
