Summary:
In the latest “Coffee with MarkZ” podcast, featuring guest Zester, the conversation centered around what many in the community are calling some of the most significant news to come out of Iraq in recent memory. While MarkZ opened the session with his standard disclaimer—reminding listeners that his insights are opinions and that any financial decisions should be made in consultation with a professional—the atmosphere of the call was undeniably electric. The focus of the broadcast was a recent segment on Iraqi television that has sent waves of optimism through investors following the Iraqi Dinar (IQD).
The primary highlight involves a piece of news from the “From the State” program on Iraq’s Al-Hadath channel. During an interview hosted by Dr. Qusay Shafiq, guests Mazen Al-Saeed and Mazan Al-Ahsiqr discussed a pivotal meeting with the U.S. Federal Reserve. According to the reports shared on the podcast, Iraqi officials indicated that the Federal Reserve has agreed to the plan of p*****g the Iraqi Dinar to the U.S. Dollar at a 1:1 ratio. The most striking takeaway was the timeline mentioned: the transition to this parity is expected to be completed within three months of that meeting.
MarkZ emphasized that because the exact date of that meeting remains unknown, the “three-month” clock might already be ticking. In a worst-case scenario where the meeting took place very recently, the 1:1 parity would be achieved by August. However, Mark suggested that the revaluation (RV) or reinstatement (RI) of the currency typically occurs before it reaches that public 1:1 parity on the open market. This aligns with previous theories that investors may have the opportunity to exchange at a specific rate before the currency stabilizes at the 1:1 mark globally.
The excitement is further bolstered by reports of a new currency being printed to facilitate this economic shift. Mark shared screenshots of live footage from Iraqi TV, noting that seeing these discussions happen openly among Iraqi officials and podcasters adds a layer of transparency that has been missing in the past. To many, this represents a tangible “first step” in a long-awaited economic overhaul. The fact that this is being broadcast to millions in Iraq suggests that the government is preparing its citizens for a significant change in purchasing power.
Looking at the immediate future, MarkZ remains optimistic that things could move even faster than the three-month window. He noted that a shift could occur as early as this month, or potentially before the July 4th holiday. There is also specific speculation regarding the upcoming long three-day weekend, a time often favored for major financial transitions. While the “worst-case” timeline puts the 1:1 parity in August, the sentiment on the podcast was that the “reset” of values is likely to happen much sooner to allow for the global move toward currency parity. As MarkZ concluded, the goal for many global leaders is to see currencies reach a level of balance, and Iraq appears to be positioning itself to lead that charge.

MZ: Something cool ….a piece done on Iraqi news about the dinar. Quote: “ I have met with the federal reserve and I told them about p*****g 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. ”

MZ: 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.
MZ: IMO This is beyond exciting news. The full interview on the “From the State” program from Iraq. Al-Hadath channel hosted by Dr. Qusay Shafiq with guests Mazen Al-Saeed and Mazan Al-Ahsiqr.
Watch on X: https://x.com/i/status/2056854594919993596
MZ: An Iraqi podcaster shared this and some very interesting things using live footage from Iraqi TV. This is being discussed on Iraqi Television by Iraqi officials. I have screen s***s.
MZ: An interesting translation says the first step for the Iraqi economy is printing a new currency. 1 dinar equal to 1 dollar. Nobody panic. (Mark shows screenshots as he explains)
MZ: A dollar is amazing…take the worst case scenario and meeting happened yesterday and its 3 months before the dinar is 1 to1. That would be in August.
MZ: Remember Mr. C talked about this on Friday that we are expected to change the values (RV or RI) then make our appointments and make our exchanges before it goes 1 to 1. So after we exchange it will go 1 to 1. But, we already got a higher rate before then.

MZ: We were also told way back when that the RV (revaluation) would occur before the rate goes 1 to 1. I think this is the best news ever and it was watched by millions on Iraqi TV…and using google translators that showed us what was being said.
MZ: So this is absolutely something to be excited about. I still think it could go this month……but imo anytime before July 4th. I would not be surprised to see something over this long 3 day weekend.
Member: So, this rv can happen any day within three months period !!!
MZ: IMO our worst case timeline is within 3 months and 1 to 1. …..Many have spoken all around the world….including Donald Trump that currencies all need to go to parity. In order to do that they need to reset the values and then go to parity or 1 to 1.

Key Insights
[17:49] Central Bank’s Role and Commitment to Stability: The Iraqi Central Bank’s public statement about neutrality and its refusal to devalue the dollar reflects a mature approach to monetary policy. By affirming their role as a stabilizing institution rather than a political actor, they aim to build confidence within and beyond Iraq’s borders. This is critical in a region often marked by political instability and currency volatility. Such a stance may encourage foreign investment and support economic reforms in Iraq.
[21:23] Iraq’s Currency Reform and P*****g the Dinar to USD: The announcement that Iraq plans to peg its dinar to the US dollar at a 1:1 ratio within three months is a major economic development. This peg aims to stabilize the currency amidst internal and external pressures. The emphasis on this being a “worst-case” scenario suggests optimism for further appreciation, but even this baseline would represent a significant positive shift for investors and Iraq’s economy. It reflects coordinated efforts between Iraqi officials and the US Federal Reserve, showing international economic cooperation.
[01:04:41] The Clarity Act’s Senate Progress and Implications: The Clarity Act clearing the Senate Banking Committee marks a pivotal moment for US cryptocurrency regulation. By establishing a clear regulatory framework and resolving disputes between agencies like the SEC and CFTC, the Act promises to bring legitimacy and stability to the crypto industry. However, the failure of the ethics provision—targeting politicians’ crypto holdings—reveals ongoing partisan challenges and potential conflicts of interest that may influence final outcomes. The Act’s passage could foster wider adoption and investor confidence, but also intensify lobbying and political battles.
[01:43:23] Critical Security Rules for Crypto Users: The hosts lay out five essential rules to prevent loss, emphasizing the absolute necessity of never sharing the 24-word seed phrase, rejecting unsolicited phone calls or messages claiming to be support, and being highly suspicious of any communication pushing users off official platforms. These rules underscore the decentralized and self-custodial nature of crypto assets, where personal responsibility and vigilance are paramount. The advice to consult community resources before acting on suspicious messages encourages collective protection.
