Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru   Article:  “DIRECT IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ASYCUDA SYSTEM AT ABU FLUOS CUSTOMS IN BASRA”  Quote:  “The electronic automation system (ASYCUDA) has been implemented at the Abu Flus Customs in Basra Governorate.”  The more provinces that have been implemented with ASYCUDA means more revenue streams to Baghdad. They told us years ago that the Customs and Tariffs could rival the oil revenue, if they could only get it managed correctly. They are doing this now and this is yet another sign of this coming to a reality.   [Post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru   …the ASYCUDA system needs to be linked to FOREX to get the most current rates of currencies in order to determine the tariff amount. How can this work without FOREX or some link to the most currency rates, not just the IQD. This is also supported by the WTO, who requires this linkage of data between ports of entry. We should be watching this effort carefully.  [Post 2 of 2]

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru  Article:  “INFLATION’S FREEFALL: IRAQ HITS 2.8%, ECONOMIC HOPES SOAR”.  If you look at the
Dr Shabibi plan to get to the reinstatement you can clearly see…he planned to put the brakes on after each step, then monitor closely for inflation… Folks the process is working…

Clare – Dinar Guru  Article: “America calls on Iraq to end dependence on Iranian energy and welcomes Al-Sudani’s commitment” Quote: “The US State Department called on Iraq to stop relying on Iranian energy sources ‘as soon as possible’...“

Breitling – Dinar Gur  Very basic.  It is an inflated inflation.  The inflation was created by how many notes they printed.  They are producing more oil when it was worth $2 to $3 a pop…According to General Hugh Tant at one time it was legitimately worth $3.  Look at their oil production then, their economy then, the amount of notes they had.  They have more customers, producing more oil.  All those boxes check off.  So what is keeping the value of the dinar down?  It is the amount of notes that are out in circulation.  That’s it.  That’s all it is.  Iraq has the opportunity call in those notes and add value to its currency.

Fnu Lnu – Dinar Guru  Article: “The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) has concluded its first quarterly meetings of 2025 with the US Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve Bank, held in Dubai, UAE, with participation from international auditing and consulting firms EY (Ernst & Young), K2 Integrity (K2i), and Oliver Wyman.”  Here we see the meetings I reported some days ago are bearing fruit. We should all realize that Iraq has spent many billions of dollars to update their banking system with state of the art features. Understand, A suppressed currency is not tradable internationally due to lack of faith and trust. Such massive ongoing improvements are aimed at a superior currency that will soon debut on the world stage. Unfortunately, we cannot have a definitive timing. It’s coming so just sit tight.

Clare – Dinar Guru  Article: “Government Advisor: 2025 Budget Will Reach Parliament Before End of Ramadan” Quote:  “Saleh indicated that the budget schedules are expected to reach Parliament before the end of Ramadan, which falls at the end of March.“

Jeff – Dinar Guru  What they’ve told us is that going into 2025 they were going to end the currency auctions.  We know that much.  They did say they transitioned to that new method of transferring foreign currencies abroad… allowing specific local banks within the country of Iraq to send the foreign currencies…But they never officially ended the currency auctions… We know the currency auctions have to end at least by the time the rate changes.  We also know that from last November through the end of January the currency auctions went up from about $280 million to $300 million, then in January of this year…went higher from $290 million to $300 million…Their actions of incrementing the currency auctions to higher amounts suggest we’re getting getting very close to nearing the end of this…

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru  Articles:  “INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES ARE EXPANDING…FAO IS PREPARING TO TRANSFORM INTO THE LARGEST INDUSTRIAL CITY IN THE MIDDLE EAST” and “MF CONFIRMS SUPPORT FOR IRAQ IN DEVELOPING FINANCIAL POLICIES” Quote:  “the development road will transform Iraq into a pivotal commercial center linking the East and the West through advanced industrial cities extending from Al-Faw to the Turkish border,”  All I can say is WOW! WOW! WOW!. How can the dinar ever stay at 1/6 of a penny in the near future?…

Henig – Dinar Guru  Article: “Communication ‘cut off’ between Al-Sudani and Al-Maliki, and Trump will not bring down Baghdad.  Saudi report – Urgent”  Quote:  “American diplomats who had just returned from Baghdad, stating that the Donald Trump administration is reviewing the situation and may issue ‘unusual’ sanctions on Iraq, but in ‘doses similar to chemotherapy.‘  It also quoted political sources in the Coordination Framework, saying that discussions and disagreements have reached the point of ‘cutting off communication’ in recent days between Prime Minister Mohammed al-Sudani, the leader of the State of Law Coalition, Nouri al-Maliki, and others from the Shiite alliance, reflecting a difference in opinion on how to deal with ‘maximum’ American pressure and the almost unstoppable transformations across the region.“

Clare – Dinar Guru  Article:  “Iraqi government: We have not been officially informed of Trump’s decision and are prepared for the worst scenarios”  Quote:  “The Iraqi government revealed, on Saturday, that it had not received any official notification of the decision to cancel Baghdad’s exemption from purchasing Iranian gas by US President Donald Trump, indicating its readiness for what it described as “the worst scenario” next summer“.

Sandy Ingram – Dinar Guru   This report is concerning for IQD investors holding IQD banknotes.  We have no reason to believe our bank notes are in trouble…It appears many Iraqi people are holding on to their IQDs.  However speaking at a conference in Baghdad Ali Mosen Alaq, governor of the Central Bank of Iraq highlighted significant advancements in digital payments.  He pointed to a sharp rise in ATMs and e-wallet usage which…have propelled financial inclusion from 20% to 40% within just two years...He… predicted a gradual decline in cash transactions as central banks move toward digital payment solutions.  In line with global trends, the CBI intends to develop its own digital currency.

Samson – Dinar Guru  Article:  “Governor of the Central Bank: We will witness a comprehensive digital transformation in the financial sector“

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru Article:  “INFLATION’S FREEFALL: IRAQ HITS 2.8%, ECONOMIC HOPES SOAR”.  Yes, only 2.8% and this is fantastic and amazing news since this is way in line with acceptable inflation rates for country, according to the IMF...

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  The Development Road Project is not going away.  It’s actually just picking up steam and we’re seeing evidence of that..

Clare – Dinar Guru  Article: “Kuwait decides to include Iraqis in electronic tourist entry visas” Quote: “The Iraqi Ambassador to Kuwait, Al-Manhal Al-Safi, announced his thanks to Kuwait for the decision to include Iraqi citizens in electronic tourist entry visas starting yesterday, Tuesday.”

Sandy Ingram – Dinar Guru   To understand how the Iraqi dinar can increase in value from $0.00076…to $0.10 cents we must analyze the steps involved in such a progression.  This type of increase typically follows an exponential growth pattern particularly in speculative or emerging currency markets…The starting exchange rate in early 2025 is .00076.  If the IQD reaches $0.10 this represents… a remarkable 13,158% increase.  Several economic and market conditions contribute to currency value appreciation –   [Post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Sandy Ingram – Dinar Guru   Increased adoption: as more individuals and business use the IQD, demand rises, increasing its value.  Speculative trading:  Investors betting on future appreciation can create exponential growth in the short term. Scarcity: If the supply of IQD is restricted while demand rises, its value naturally increases.  Psychological milestones:  Breaking key value points such as 1 cent or 10 cents can accelerate momentum as more investors take interest.   [We] believe speculation trading, where investors bet on future appreciation of the IQD will create exponential growth in the short term.  [We] also believe psychological milestones will play a major part in increasing the value of the IQD.   [Post 2 of 2]

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  Article:  “Britain: Iraqi government supports private sector, encourages international investment”  Iraq is making headway and the Iraqi-British Council see what Iraq has to offer for international investment and the private sector! The World Bank is in agreement! The signs of Iraq opening to the International Financial System are everywhere Al-Sudani Prime Minister of Iraq turns! It is truly amazing to watch take shape! All investors in the Iraqi dinar should be smiling large! I know I am.

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru  Article:  “THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC APPROVES THE AMENDMENT TO THE BUDGET LAW”  This
was the main issues from the Kurdistan region in the monthly salary payments they were receiving for their share of the oil revenues…They wanted more in the budget and so now they have it...I want everyone to know that the passing of this bill is NOT the Oil and Gas Law and is NOT going to trigger the RV.

Clare – Dinar Guru   Article: “Issue No. (4814) of the Iraqi Gazette was published on 2/17/2025”   Quote:   “– Law No. (4) of 2025 First Amendment to the Federal General Budget Law of the Republic of Iraq for the Fiscal Years (2023-2024-2025) No. (13) of 2023.”  Community Comment: ”  Great news! Has the budget been given to parliament? Passed?  THE 2025 BUDGET TABLES HAVE NOT BEEN SENT TO PARLIAMENT YET. SUDANI IS IN CONTROL OF ALL THE TIMING IMO.

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  . It suggests that Iraq is fully ready to go.  They got praise from the United States Treasury…US Federal Reserve…They have the best accounting/ consulting firms in the world working with them…Iraq has done everything they need to do…

Sandy Ingram – Dinar Guru   Article: “Iraq’s Central Bank will prohibit five banks from conducing US dollar transactions in an effort to combat money laundering, dollar smuggling and other financial violations”  This decision follows meetings in Dubai between Iraqi officials and representatives from the US Treasury and Federal Reserve…While the newly sanctioned banks can still operate and conduct transactions in other currencies, the inability to access U.S. dollars severely limits their international financial activities.

Clare – Dinar Guru   Article: “Central Bank announces details of its meetings with the Treasury and the Federal Reserve” Quote: “…Iraq depend largely on the trust of international correspondent banks in the Iraqi banking sector, we emphasize the need to ensure that the official channels of this bank are adopted to know the latest news and not to transmit incorrect news such as some Iraqi banks being subject to international sanctions and others.“

Militia Man – Dinar Guru The president of the republic [of Iraq] has signed the amendment to the budget law…It’s waiting for the exposure of the exchange rate that’s going to be in the Gazette.  Does Alaq have a conversation with everybody before that or it it all around the same time?  It’s to be determined.  Obviously they haven’t moved oil at 1310.  They haven’t paid all the salaries at 1310.  They haven’t exposed the budget.  Obviously they’re doing something trying to keep it contained till down to the wire.

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru   you can now CLEARLY see that there has been massive corruption in Iraq and with the US keeping the Iraq dinar artificially suppressed… The  new president Trump has a new policy towards Iraq and it is beginning to take form. This recent move of stopping the physical dollar CASH flow to Iraq is apparent…This was a huge move…I was told many times already by my CBI contact that this crisis is at the heart of why the CBI can not set the in-country revaluation rate to what they need to conduct the Project to Delete the Zeros…

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru   Article:  “ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING OFFICE: IRAQI AUTHORITIES FACE DIFFICULTY TRACKING
DIGITAL TRANSACTIONS”  Quote:  “Iraqi authorities are facing difficulty in tracking digital transactions.”  …this article tells us there is still a heavy reliance on “cash transactions”  …there will still be a need to have these larger notes for foreign trade even after the Project to Delete the Zeros is completed. We also have to think about all the countries that have the three zeros notes now in their country’s foreign reserves. So these older three zero notes are  not going away. Ours will be valuable!

Yada – Dinar Guru   This is from an article regarding the president signing the budget today;  “The Iraqi president has signed the budget amendment, which will be published in the official Iraqi gazette (Al-Waqai) on Monday, February 17, 15 days after the approval of the amendment.”  Quote:  “The Iraqi parliament approved the budget amendment concerning the oil of the Kurdistan Region on February 2. It will be implemented 15 days after approval and publication in the official Iraqi gazette“

Samson – Dinar Guru  Article  “Al-Sudani confirms the government’s insistence on lifting the European ban on Iraqi Airways“

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  Iraq has a massive amount of reserves, far more than necessary than the requirements of the IMF.  And they’ve increased their gold reserves.
