TNT DINAR UPDATE 10-27-25

The Spaces opens with Tony and Ray addressing community stress and clearing rumors about unreleased 50 and 10 notes. Tony details a failed weekend rollout: banks were staffed and told rates were live, yet 800 numbers never arrived and the Treasury withheld final authorization. Conflicting intel persists—IMF/UN sources say “go tonight,” while “three-letter” contacts point to Thursday/Friday or slipping into the first week of November. Geopolitics are central: U.S. naval activity around Venezuela, China-supplied systems and corruption rings, and an ongoing Trump–China negotiation are influencing timing. Regionally, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, and Qatar await Washington’s signal. Tony also notes Iraq’s integration with China’s digital payment system (“CIPX”), enabling sub‑7‑minute international transfers and bypassing USD, tied to Belt/Silk Road; Russia, Korea, and Turkey are said to be linked as well. Q&A covers currency caps and rates (no confirmed IQD max; 10M VND cited for a higher rate), Venezuelan bolívar uncertainty, NDAs, Puerto Rico’s separate 800 number, and post‑exchange privacy. Tony revisits history of managed disclosures under DC/Pentagon to track flows and credits Bush/Obama for keeping retail holders in the process. He closes urging patience: one click away, wait for official numbers.

TNT Twitter Space Summary – RV status, banking logistics, geopolitics, and Q&A (Monday, Oct 27, 2025)

Participants and Roles

• Tony (primary host; says he’s stressed but sharing real-time updates; fields most intel and Q&A)
• Ray (co-host; moderates, reads chat questions, closes the session)
• Callers/Questioners referenced by name or handle when available: Woody, Susan (“Bus Lady”), Sheila, William, Mark, Jazzy (attempted), Vineyard Guy, Emelio, Bob, Melfoot, Dare to Dream, Alicia (shared CIPX name), Rock Solid (birthday mention), Russell (attempted), Bree Birch (queue reference), and a long-time listener (12–13 years; asked about misinformation).

Current RV/Exchange Status and Timing Windows

• Weekend expectation missed: Banks were staffed and waiting Friday through Sunday (even to noon Sunday), but the expected 800 numbers did not arrive. Tony did not alert listeners because he requires seeing the 800 numbers before calling a go.
• Conflicting signals:
  • UN/IMF: Reported to Tony “the rate is live” and “you should be at the bank right now,” with an indication Iraq’s prime minister would make an announcement and exchanges would begin Tuesday.
  • “Three-letter agencies” (U.S. federal intelligence/law enforcement): Indicated it would not happen before Friday and cited geopolitical complications. Their view ties the delay to negotiations and security issues.
• Countries in a holding pattern (per Tony’s intel): Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, and Qatar are “waiting for Washington’s final signal,” reportedly keyed to meetings concluding Thursday (Oct 29) and a possible global acknowledgement Friday night (Oct 31), assuming nothing goes sideways.
• Backstop: If not by Friday, Tony’s current back-wall expectation is the first week of November.
• Banks: Tony’s bank contacts say systems were “released” and they were told they’d receive special instructions this week (possibly after West Coast banks close). Some desks say they saw “live” rates; others await Treasury’s final gate to show on Forex.
• Group/commission payments: Tony relayed that some groups claim they were paid Saturday; another cohort expected Monday then moved to Tuesday. He adds the Treasury must perform a “last piece” and, per Tony, was told not to do so until certain negotiations are addressed.

Banking Logistics and Process Notes

• 800 numbers: Still not in Tony’s hands. He will only signal a go after he actually receives them. He expects an organized appointment process when numbers arrive.
• Forex: Callers asked—Tony says the release appears to be into banking systems, but Forex display depends on Treasury. He’s waiting for clarity.
• Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands: Not on Ray’s list, but Tony says Puerto Rico will receive its own 800 number.
• NDAs: Tony’s answer to “Will we need to sign NDAs?” was yes.
• OPSEC recommendations: Tony suggests—if you plan to “go dark”—consider a new email, phone number, and address post-exchange to reduce risk of hacking and unwanted contact. Callers discussed Hushmail; Tony said he doesn’t know it but a caller recommended it as a paid, secure option.

Currency Notes Rumors Debunked

• Viral images of 50 and 10 notes: Tony strongly stated those were old prototype images circulated previously (including front/back with serials), not newly released notes. He cautioned against repeated hype—he does not see any legitimate new release tied to those pictures.

Geopolitical Context Shaping Timing

• Interdictions near Cuba/Venezuela: Tony relayed intel of naval actions against cargo container ships, discovery and elimination of weapon systems “not supposed to be in the area,” and connections to Chinese supply. He says this triggered complications.
• Corruption rings: Tony cited “three major international corruption rings tied to China” were dismantled; alleges involvement of a figure connected to a prime minister’s family (details/dates not substantiated in call).
• China leadership dynamics: Tony’s intel claims Xi (“Z”) remains as a figurehead until December next year and is not in control of the military; named “Hu” when asked who might replace the “chief of China,” but emphasized uncertainty and that Xi remains the public face for now.
• Venezuela: Tony says President Maduro publicly requested no conflict; U.S. dispatched a major ship (nuclear-capable or battleship) toward Venezuela; Tony’s contacts say the ship is on station.
• U.S. political layer: Tony claims some Treasury gating decisions were influenced by direction tied to ongoing negotiations and recent security revelations. He mentions media references (Fox/CNN), but did not read detailed reports live.

Iraq’s Banking Connectivity and International Payments

• New rails vs. SWIFT: Tony cited Iraqi media stating Iraq has linked into a “China Digital Payment System,” which he later named as CIPX (credit to Alicia for the acronym), enabling cross-border settlement in under 7 minutes, compared to SWIFT’s up-to-7-day cycles.
• Bypassing USD: He says Iraq, Russia, Korea, Turkey, and others are using the new system and “bypassing the U.S. dollar,” aligning with Belt and Road/Silk Road initiatives. He underscores U.S. concerns that China’s access to funds via Iraq could give it outsized influence.
• Blockchain verification: Tony described the new system as blockchain-based with immediate verification, driving speed and throughput improvements.

Q&A Highlights and Host Responses

• Melfoot: “Is there still a max of 20M Iraqi dinar at 28.50?” Tony: Not aware of a max; previously there was a minimum to qualify, but he doesn’t currently know of caps.
• Vineyard Guy: “Will we need to sign NDAs?” Tony: Yes.
• Emelio (PR/VI banks): Ray: Not on the list; Tony: PR will have its own 800 number.
• Bob: “Who replaces the chief of China? Will Trump meet him?” Tony: Says “Hu” (name), uncertain if Trump meets him; Xi remains out front as figurehead until next year.
• Woody: Subscription/payments were turned off last month; Tony can turn them back on if needed.
• “Rear” (caller): Asked about reports Trump suspended 100% tariffs as of Nov 1 due to a China agreement. Tony: Saw the article but can’t confirm; public statements may differ from behind-the-scenes negotiations.
• “Rear” follow-up: If some got paid, how could it slip to November? Tony: Treasury withheld the final step pending new negotiations tied to recent security info; IMF still messaging “tonight/tomorrow,” but conflicting intel persists.
• Sheila: Asked about using a new email (mentioned Hushmail). Tony: Doesn’t know Hushmail; general guidance is to use new email/phone/address post-exchange for privacy.
• Dare to Dream: “Release to where?” Tony: To banking systems, but Forex still depends on Treasury’s final step. He’s awaiting answers.
• William: VND/IQD thresholds—Tony reiterated 10M VND to reach the highest VND rate ($11.40 per VND). If holding less (e.g., 8M), rates are per currency; he would negotiate to achieve the highest rate across all currencies held.
• Long-time listener (12–13 years): “Could you be fed misinformation again?” Tony: Legit question. He recounted the DC era, daily Pentagon briefings, and intentional messaging used then to track money flows, sometimes broadcast in Iraq. He says today’s situation is different: core work is done (Iraq, banks, contracts), and he does not believe he’s being intentionally misled now; the main gating is timing.

Historical Context Tony Shared

• DC period: Daily briefings connected to U.S. defense/intel; sometimes used orchestrated info to track illicit flows and participants. Tony says he was broadcast in Iraqi cafés and online.
• Presidential interventions (per Tony’s account): He asserts both Presidents Bush and Obama ensured retail holders remained included, and blocked moves (including alleged Secret Service action) that would have excluded them.

Community Tone, Stress, and Humor

• Tony opened discussing stress and gratitude (received a gift lighter but didn’t know the sender). He emphasized he will alert listeners only when he has concrete items (e.g., 800 numbers).
• Multiple birthday shout-outs (Rock Solid; Bus Lady/Susan—who humorously demanded it happen during her “birthday week”).
• Sports banter: Alabama “barely won,” friendly jabs, “Roll Tide.”
• Closing: Tony urged patience and positivity—“one click away”—and Ray encouraged belief before signing off.

Key Takeaways

• Conflicting intel remains: UN/IMF say “rate live” and banks “now,” while U.S. federal sources point to Friday after specific geopolitical and negotiation milestones.
• Actionable readiness:
  • Wait for official 800 numbers before making moves.
  • Expect NDAs.
  • Puerto Rico will have a dedicated 800 number.
  • Consider personal OPSEC (new email/phone/address) post-exchange.
  • Be prepared to negotiate rates by currency; thresholds (e.g., 10M VND) may influence rate tiers.
• Rumor control: Disregard viral 50/10 note images; they were prototypes, not newly released, per Tony.
• Timeline windows: Possible “tonight/tomorrow” if UN/IMF track prevails; otherwise Thursday/Friday post-meetings; if not, early November.
• Macro context: Iraq’s integration into a faster, non-SWIFT cross-border system (CIPX) and broader Belt and Road alignment increases U.S. sensitivity about the USD’s role and China’s influence, contributing to timing complexity.

What to Watch Next

• Whether 800 numbers are released (Tony will share promptly if received).
• Any official announcement from Iraq’s leadership and whether rates show on Forex.
• Outcome of Thursday (Oct 29) meetings and any Friday (Oct 31) global acknowledgement.
• Signals from Treasury/U.S. agencies indicating a formal go/no-go.
