10-17-2025 Intel Guru Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY:
Television is now showing the Kuwait dinar. They’re telling us it’s strength for a long period of time that it’s been trading at $3.27…and it’s leading as a powerful currency. Interesting how they talk about the dinar today from Kuwait. FRANK: No gentlemen, this is purposeful. This has a reason. If they would have just sprung this on you it would have been a disaster…They’re trying to tell us something…
10-17-25 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] Question: Are the lower denoms out in Iraq yet? MarkZ: They are showing cut sheets again (samples of the new LD’s) and talking about it in the news – but I haven’t been able to find any in circulation yet.
10-17-2025 Newshound Guru Walkingstick It’s not a float at the onset because the Iraqi dinar will be market driven. The supply and demand that is going to be put on the new currency with the new rate for the IQD will drive the value instantly. Supply and demand will determine the real effective exchange rate instead of 1 to 1 or even a float.
10-17-2025 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Article: “GOVERNMENT ADVISOR: MONETARY POLICY HAS ACHIEVED STABILITY IN THE EXCHANGE RATE AND INFLATION.” …the IMF told Iraq through their consultation sessions that they needed low inflation and a steady exchange
rate. The news just told us that inflation is at a record low for Iraq, EVER. In fact they called it “unprecedented stability in inflation and prices”. The CBI is also able to steady the official rate of the dinar at 1320 for almost three years now. So where is the RV then?
10-17-2025 Newshound Guru Jeff Article quote: “There is no intention to float the exchange rate of the dinar.” Why can’t the do that? The budget is calculated off the currency value…If the value of the currency were to change significantly, say more than 20%, that would force them to amend the budget. They’re not going to keep amending the budget.
10-17-2025 Guru Nader From The Mid East Question: “Can you explain the three zeros? How you going to exchange them?” It’s going to be 90 days exactly…Just like they did before when they exchange the small categories with the big categories they gave us 90 days to change from Saddam’s money to the new currency we have now which we call the new currency…I think that’s the rules of all central banks.
10-17-2025 Newshound/Intel Guru Fnu Lnu Many months ago [I said] there would be no float. One day you guys will realize that I am connected. I bring the receipts.
10-17-2025 Intel Guru Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] OMAR: In the country we will drop the zeros and the lower notes will be introduced and the 3 zero notes will coexist at the same time at the same rate. All of it will be dropped off the exchange rate and then as it’s pegged to a basket we will see our true rate. FRANK: Yes because once it’s in the basket that’s an RI. Then it will be an RV in the basket to reach the real effective exchange rate. Then it ain’t 1 to 1 because you can’t touch the dollar. So you coming out at $3.22…? I suggest to cap it at $4.25…
10-17-2025 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] I can tell you this much redemption center screens are blank…[Tuesday]. No rates up on screens…We did have a rate on the Dong a couple days ago at redemption center, and it was quite good. I told you guys the dinar is going to be offered to us at a contract rate…and that’s still holding. And the main thing, I guess, is just for us to keep our eyes open
10-17-2025 Intel/Newshound Guru MarkZ [via PDK] Article: “IMF expects Iraq’s economy to grow by 3.6% next year” The long term health of the country supports changing the value of their currency.
