“New Value First” – Coffee with MarkZ Intel Stream Highlights 10-18-25

Summary:

The air this past weekend, as captured in MarkZ’s “Weekend Coffee” podcast on October 18th, 2025, was thick with a palpable sense of anticipation. While the initial segments featured discussions from the “CBD Gurus,” the real meat of the broadcast revolved around the ongoing currents of financial reform, particularly concerning Iraq, and the broader global financial landscape. As always, MarkZ emphasized that his insights are his own opinions and that viewers should consult professionals for financial decisions.

One of the recurring themes from listeners was the hope for a significant financial shift, with one participant optimistically wishing for a “Green October.” This sentiment underscores the widespread expectation that something substantial is on the horizon. When questioned about bond news, MarkZ conveyed that little had changed from the previous day, but the outlook for the coming week remained positive. He indicated that crucial paperwork had been completed, paving the way for distributions expected early to mid-next week, possibly as early as Tuesday or Wednesday. This news, however, was met with frustration from some bondholders, who voiced their feelings of emotional distress, hinting at the prolonged period of waiting and uncertainty.

The conversation also touched upon the ongoing efforts to maintain an element of surprise surrounding the anticipated revaluation of the Iraqi Dinar (RV). Despite these efforts, MarkZ noted that discussions about the RV were indeed happening within Iraq. He highlighted reports of a newly announced banking and economic reform package for Iraq, originating from Washington. These reforms, which include digital advancements, aim to strengthen Iraq’s financial infrastructure.

Furthermore, a significant piece of news was the Central Bank of Iraq’s (CBI) issuance of new instructions designed to curb dollar smuggling. MarkZ interpreted this move as a strategic step to control the flow of currency, both in and out of the country, which he believes is a strong indicator of an impending currency revaluation. He stated that this move, coupled with the need to manage currency flow during the revaluation process, was a “great sign.” The preparation of the 2026 budget, announced by a government advisor, also c****t attention. MarkZ speculated that this budget preparation might be contingent on the re-establishment of a new dinar value, as previous budget cycles for 2025 and 2024 seemed less defined.

The question of how Iraq is funding its various new projects without a revalued currency was raised by a listener, hinting at the financial complexities at play. Another point of interest was the mention of Frank26 alluding to “two sets of books” being worked on, suggesting a potential internal financial restructuring.

Beyond Iraq, the podcast touched upon broader global financial trends. Several banks, including PNC, have been undergoing system updates, leading to temporary online banking and Zelle outages. MarkZ observed this as part of a larger trend, describing the current financial system as “falling apart at the seams” and in need of a “reset.” He introduced a fascinating perspective from economic experts in Russia, who reportedly believe the US is planning a shift towards a crypto ledger-style system, reminiscent of tether accounts, to manage existing debt. This would be followed by a move to “Gold Backed Treasuries,” effectively reinstating a gold standard for treasuries. Such a move, they suggest, would lead to a devaluation of the US dollar and a revaluation of gold, initiating a global currency reset towards what is being termed “sound money.” This widespread discussion among global economists highlights a potential paradigm shift in international finance.

As the weekend drew to a close, the hope for imminent changes remained high. The suggestion that Saturday nights are often a prime time for new rate releases fueled further speculation, with participants crossing their fingers for a positive development. The podcast concluded with well wishes for a safe and beautiful weekend, underscoring the collective hope and anticipation shared by those closely following these unfolding financial narratives.

Weekend Coffee with MarkZ. 10/18/2025

Some highlights by PDK-Not verbatim

MarkZ Disclaimer: Please consider everything on this call as my opinion. People who take notes do not catch everything and its best to watch the video so that you get everything in context.  Be sure to consult a professional for any financial decisions

MZ: the first 45 minutes we cut up with the CBD Guru’s. Then I will share what news there is.

Member:  Mark. Hoping this is the October that we’ve heard of as Red October

Member: let’s make it a “Green October” instead.

Member: Any bond news today?

MZ: Nothing changed since yesterday. Their expectation is for the coming week. They say they completed very important paperwork this past week…..things were very productive and they are looking for those dollars being distributes early to mid next week…..possible Tues or Wed….

Member: time for a class action lawsuit by those bondholders – emotional distress

MZ: Redemption contact says they are not working today. They are “on call” but not working yet.

MZ: They are doing their best to keep the RV a surprise….but they are certainly talking about it in Iraq.

MZ: They are talking about a final set of financial reforms …and announcing what the details are. Very positive.  “From Washington: A new banking and economic reform package for Iraq”  We have covered this meeting with Wyman going on in DC. A lot of meetings about digital reforms.

MZ:  “CBI putting out new instructions aimed at stopping dollar smuggling.”  These reforms would close the financial borders to not smuggle dinar out or into the country.  International compliance. This doesn’t make much sense unless they are planning to revale the currency.

MZ: I was told they would close their financial borders with the RV and they need to be able to control both directions during the process.  This is a great sign.

MZ: “Government Advisor: The ministry of finance has started preparing the 2026 budget” We never really saw a 2025 or 2024 budget. But my guess is they have to have a new value on the dinar first.

Member: I wonder how Iraq is funding all these new projects without having an RV?

Member: Frank26 says they are working on two sets of books.

Member: New PNC online banking is coming oct 24-26. Online banking and Zelle will be unavailable

MZ: A lot of banks have been updating last weekend, this weekend and next weekend,

MZ: I talked about it this week. Chunks are falling out of the financial walls. The financial system is falling apart at the seams. They need a reset.

MZ: Even Economic folks in Russia are saying the US is planning to use a crypto ledger style system (tether style accounts) to back the existing debt (phasing out the current debt) then go to “Gold Backed Treasuries” This is a gold standard for treasuries …then devalue the dollar and revalue gold. This is a reset. Other currencies will be going up in relation to the USD. A Global Currency reset back to sound money. ….all over the world economists are talking about it. .

Member: Saturday nights are allegedly the best time to release new rates…..fingers crossed for tonight.

Member: Hope everyone has a safe and beautiful weekend.

Video Summary (Related Information Only):

The video begins with warm community engagement, acknowledging viewers and encouraging interaction. The hosts then provide brief news updates with a particular focus on financial developments in Iraq, which is central to the anticipated currency revaluation. They discuss the Central Bank of Iraq’s new regulations aimed at preventing the smuggling of currency, which is interpreted as a preparatory step for the RV. These controls are seen as essential to managing the flow of funds across borders during the revaluation process and preventing exploitation.

An important segment is the explanation of Nightbot, an AI moderation tool that prevents viewers from posting sensitive or potentially harmful information in chat during the RV event. This bot acts preemptively, filtering content before it reaches the moderators or the public, thus safeguarding the community and hosts from legal or financial repercussions.

The news portion deepens with analysis of recent banking reforms in Iraq, the U.S. military’s planned withdrawal contingent on Iraq regaining full sovereignty, and ongoing efforts to stop gas flaring as part of economic reforms. These updates reinforce the narrative that significant changes are underway in Iraq’s economy and governance, closely tied to the currency revaluation.

Broader economic themes emerge with discussion of tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, which have encouraged companies to reshore manufacturing to the U.S. This reshoring is presented as critical to the global economic reset, supporting a return to sound money principles and a gold-backed currency system. The hosts emphasize that countries without manufacturing bases are at risk in the upcoming reset.

Financial market commentary highlights stress within regional banks, m**********n in the silver market, and a surge in gold prices. These signs are interpreted as evidence of systemic financial instability necessitating a reset. The video references studies from various central banks about transitioning back to a gold standard, underscoring the global scale of these changes.

Interspersed throughout are personal stories, shout-outs to community members, reflections on classic entertainment like the “Our Gang” series, and discussions on investment strategies including cryptocurrency and precious metals. The hosts emphasize the importance of doing personal research on medical studies and economic changes to make informed decisions.

The video concludes with birthday wishes, closing remarks on the current geopolitical climate including Venezuela’s role in the reset, and a reminder to viewers to stay informed and engaged.
