TNT DINAR UPDATE 9-10-25
The Spaces focused on the anticipated Iraqi dinar revaluation (RV) timeline, logistics, and community housekeeping. Tony reported that IMF/UN/agency contacts and Iraqi contractors were aligned and that bond trading had concluded, with a rate visible on screens, and a go-live tentatively slated for Thursday evening with public bank visits expected Friday—pending geopolitical risk. The sole cited blocker was fallout from an Israeli action that could trigger retaliation by Qatar and broader regional escalation; Tony expected clarity within eight hours after Trump’s scheduled remarks. He reiterated that no 800 numbers = no immediate RV, explaining typical release windows and the need to coordinate nationwide appointments. Practical guidance covered bank options (Wells Fargo as the foundation bank; others may not handle all currencies), a new “$1,000 group” site with a $100 one-time deposit placeholder (not a subscription), strict eligibility rules (72-hour post-RV upgrade to $100 TNT tier; limited seats <5%), and avoiding outdated payment links (GoDaddy refunds handled by the processor). Currency-specific points included a cited international rate near 5.96 for IQD vs lower in-country purchasing-power rate, ZIM multi-year payout options run via the UN with interest terms unknown, and recent images of lower-denomination notes in Iraq. The call closed with a weekend-optimistic but conditional outlook.
TNT Call Summary — Wednesday, September 10, 2025 (Hump Day)
Participants and Roles
- Tony: Primary host sharing intel, timelines, and process guidance for the RV/exchange.
- Ray (Ray/RayRen): Co-host, moderates, reads questions, and clarifies process points.
- Callers: Multiple community members posed questions on timelines, bank logistics, currency specifics, and site-access issues.
Executive Summary
- Current status: Per Tony, all operational elements are complete and green-lighted (IMF, UN, CIA, Iraqi contractors aligned); bond transactions concluded; the international rate is sitting “on the screen.”
- Timing: Scheduled for Thursday evening with public visibility Friday; banking Friday/Saturday. Historically, not expected on Wednesdays, and no early-morning rollout with 800 numbers.
- Primary risk factor: Escalation stemming from Israel’s reported action and emerging Qatar-related retaliation concerns. A Trump statement expected within ~8 hours (from the call) could influence timing. Three-letter agency contact later indicated the Iranian threat in Iraq is neutralized and Israel will not attack militia in Iraq, reducing that specific risk.
- Banks and execution: Wells Fargo is the foundation bank (expected to handle all currencies); other banks can participate but may pick-and-choose currencies.
- Site access (community logistics): New site requires a one-time $100 deposit now toward a $1,000 membership (remaining $900 later). Only current $100 TNT subscribers will be invited over. Post-RV, there will be a limited-time window (nominally 72 hours, subject to practical constraints) for $20 subscribers to upgrade to $100 to become eligible. Capacity will be limited (<5% of current membership; initial wave noted as ~900 slots). Use the latest payment link (Stripe); the prior Google Pay path was disabled and refunded by GoDaddy.
RV Timing, Dependencies, and Markets
Official Line and Sequence
- Sources (IMF, UN, CIA, contractors in Iraq) reportedly synchronized and “ready to go.”
- Bond transactions: Began Sunday noon and were to conclude by Tuesday 9 PM; they reportedly completed early. Brokers could see trades; one banker saw but could not act.
- Rate visibility and rationale for urgency: Traders/hedge funds can infer the “hard rate” (Tony stated $5.96 per IQD internationally) and could arbitrage against current dealer pricing, so authorities prefer a quick rollout once visible.
- Operational cadence: 800 numbers would reasonably be released Thursday afternoon/evening, enabling bank appointments Friday or Saturday. No expectation of overnight release with a 9 AM same-day start.
Geopolitical Risk and Contingencies
- Israel/Qatar situation:
- Israel reportedly acted; Israel says it notified the U.S. in advance; U.S. messaging suggested otherwise, generating international controversy. Multiple countries are angered and considering reduced protections/immunity for Israel.
- Qatar signaled a right to retaliate; if action escalates, a delay is possible. Tony hoped any retaliation would be delayed until next week to preserve the current RV schedule.
- Trump was expected to speak and “explain” the situation. Depending on that, agencies expected clarity within ~8 hours.
- Iraq-internal: Concern existed that Israel might target militia elements inside Iraq; three-letter agency contact later said the threat in Iraq is contained/neutralized and attacks in Iraq aren’t expected.
- Tony’s position on causes of prior delays: He attributes some delays to Trump-driven preconditions (e.g., additional funding, Iraqi law changes, clarifications regarding Iran/Israel conflict exposure, global oil/trade dynamics). He contends these were to prevent adversarial access to large new funds in a war posture. He separates legitimate strategic holds from broader frustrations.
Rates and Scopes
- International IQD rate discussed as $5.96 (Tony’s figure). He distinguishes:
- International rate vs. in-country rate: Salaries and domestic Iraq purchasing power are anchored to an in-country rate (e.g., around 1.18, per Tony), not the international rate.
- Visibility: “Rate on screen” but not live on Forex; hence no public trading yet.
- Hedge funds/dealers: Tony’s warning that once the rate is widely known, off-market buying surges could occur, necessitating prompt activation to prevent exploitation.
Banking, 800 Numbers, and Exchange Mechanics
- 800 numbers: These are to make appointments; Tony emphasizes he does not control the timing. If the system were launched without 800 numbers (not expected), he’d personally go to the bank and avoid potential post-announcement chaos.
- Bank selection:
- Wells Fargo is foundation bank (handles all currencies).
- Other banks may participate but can limit which currencies they accept. Verify in advance which of your currencies a given bank will process.
- One-exchange-per-month note: A recent policy shift suggests only one exchange per month, which may affect the planned post-RV 72-hour upgrade window (see Site section). Tony may flex the window to accommodate realities (e.g., appointment scheduling and bank hours).
TNT Site, Deposits, and Eligibility
- Distinctions:
- TNT subscription: $20 or $100 levels. The $100 level is the qualifying tier for migration to the new site.
- New site membership: $1,000 total. The current action is a one-time $100 deposit (reservation) with the remaining $900 due when the new site launches. This is not a recurring subscription.
- Who can move to the new site: Only current $100 TNT subscribers will receive invitations once the RV is announced.
- Post-RV upgrade window: A 72-hour window (subject to adjustment based on bank appointment realities) is planned to allow existing TNT $20 subscribers to upgrade to $100 and become eligible for the invite. Tony may re-open the window and restart a 72-hour countdown at a practical time so members can access funds as needed.
- Capacity limits: The new site will be less than 5% of the current audience. An initial tranche (~900 spots) was aimed at current $100 subscribers to “get in first.”
- Payment process:
- Old vs. new link: The initial Google Pay path broke; Tony switched to Stripe. Some members mistakenly kept using the old link and encountered failures. The current Stripe link works; always use the latest email.
- Refunds: GoDaddy processed refunds for the abandoned Google Pay pathway. Tony notes he does not control those refunds; questions should be directed to GoDaddy.
- Receipts: If you received a payment receipt for the deposit, your reservation is recognized. Keep records.
- Clarifications Tony emphasized:
- The $100 deposit email went to everyone, but the reservation was intended for $100 subscribers.
- TNT $100 subscription and new site deposit are separate; paying one does not cancel the other.
- Only use the new Stripe link provided in the most recent emails; read instructions carefully.
Currency-Specific Q&A and Clarifications
- Zimbabwe (ZIM) long-term payout option: A 20- or 25-year payout option exists through the UN (not through banks), per Tony’s sources. Interest treatment is unknown (not discussed yet).
- Prosperity programs (Omega, Alpha, etc.): Tony and Ray said they are not aware/engaged.
- Lower-denomination Iraqi notes: Images circulated recently; Tony’s Iraq contact confirmed those were the new notes that will be shown.
- Tiers: Tony cannot confirm any “tiered exchange” structure; he has not seen a mechanism he can explain.
- Venezuela currency (Bolívar Soberano):
- Calculation: Value is “units x exchange rate.” Some confusion arose over denomination terms (“digitalis” mentioned by caller—likely referring to older redenominations); members must ensure they know the exact unit they hold and convert appropriately.
- Separate Venezuela update: Tony mentioned he could not discuss a Venezuela-related matter due to instructions/NDA and potential consequences if disclosed.
Regional/Political Developments Discussed
- Israel–Gaza/Gulf situation:
- Tony voiced personal support for Israel’s right to respond to attacks but criticized civilian casualties and extended actions; he attributes current escalatory risks to leadership decisions (Netanyahu), urging not to generalize against the entire country.
- He fears escalations (e.g., possible Qatar retaliation) could delay the RV timeline.
- Iraq PM Sudani’s U.S. visa: Tony said entry was reportedly withheld until certain preconditions (e.g., dealing with militias) were met. A key vote on militias was postponed to after the RV, which he says contributed to U.S. dissatisfaction but is not expected to derail the current schedule.
Call Logistics and Platform Notes
- Future calls will be on a platform separate from X/Twitter Spaces. Up to 500 dial-ins available; internet streaming is recommended for most. No special app required.
Personal Finance and Post-Exchange Guidance (Community Advice)
- Do your homework: Contracts, investments, and business proposals will flood in post-RV. Read, research, and use professional advisors. Don’t let anyone rush you into signing.
- Structures and gatekeeping: Use attorneys and entity structures to vet proposals. It’s acceptable to tell friends/family your funds are managed and require legal review before any commitment.
- Scams and pressure: Expect approaches from neighbors/friends/fundraisers once your wealth is known. Maintain discipline and processes.
Notable Live Update During Call
- A caller reported breaking news that Charlie Kirk had been shot in Utah; hosts acknowledged seeing a report on TV. This item was incidental to the RV discussion and not assessed as a material factor in timing.
Key Takeaways and What to Watch
- Near-term timing: If no escalation from the Israel/Qatar situation and assuming Trump’s remarks don’t trigger a pause, 800 numbers are expected Thursday afternoon/evening, with bank appointments Friday/Saturday. If delayed, Friday evening is the next likely pivot with a weekend bank start.
- Site actions:
- If you’re a current $100 TNT subscriber: You’ll be invited to the new site; your $100 deposit secures a place in the $1,000 program (pay $900 later).
- If you’re a $20 TNT subscriber: Be prepared to upgrade to $100 when Tony opens the upgrade window post-RV to become eligible for the new site invite.
- Use only the latest Stripe link; keep your receipts; do not reuse old emails/links.
- Bank prep: Identify banks near you that will handle your currencies. Wells Fargo is the default for all currencies, but other banks may be selective.
- Remain flexible: The upgrade window may be adjusted to align with bank appointment constraints and the “one exchange per month” policy.
Glossary
- RV: Revaluation of a currency (in this context, primarily the Iraqi dinar).
- 800 numbers: Dedicated numbers used to schedule exchange appointments.
- IMF/UN/CIA: International Monetary Fund, United Nations, U.S. Central Intelligence Agency; cited by Tony as aligned intel sources.
- Forex: Foreign exchange market; the rate is not yet public on Forex per Tony.
- NDA: Non-disclosure agreement; Tony referenced restrictions on sharing certain information (e.g., a Venezuela matter).
Final Outlook (as of end of call)
- The community is in a go/green-light posture operationally. The only active uncertainty is geopolitical. If the current regional flashpoint remains contained, expect a Thursday evening release (800 numbers) and exchanges beginning Friday/Saturday. Tony committed to tweeting updates if status changes.
