Good Evening ,
“The legislation aims to foster innovation in financial services by establishing federal regulatory sandboxes that let entrepreneurs test new products and services while ensuring consumer protections, according to the release.”. 1 day ago
As we have discussed in this room before, a federal regulatory sandbox allows new innovations to be tested in a private setting and in a controlled environment.
This testing of new digital assets will gain an insight into their functionality and operability. The findings will allow them to regulate their behavior under the supervision of qualified individuals capable of assessing their future use case scenarios.
The use of this new monetary legislation regarding regulation determinations through pilot programs inside a sandbox will come in handy with our new expansions of Quantum Technologies interfacing through Protocol 20.

Bitcoin Announcement:
Wall Street is telling us that the demand for Bitcoin is greater than it’s supply. When demand is greater than supply, prices rise.
This will affect many other assets in the crypto currency space. As you can see, liquidity is coming into the new digital economy as it’s being formed.
Prices are beginning to change because of it. Movement of money and use case scenarios are expected to grow from here in the new digital economy. The first RV.
Remember, we spoke of two RVs. When the digital economy is solidified, payment systems on the local level will begin to signal new changes are needed. This is when we will see the paper currency begin to form new price patterns. Crypto Tips

“Shafaq News/ The International Monetary Fund (IMF) indicated a “significant decline” in inflation rates in Iraq, which was reflected in the decline in food and energy prices and the stability of the foreign exchange market in Iraq.
According to the Ministry of Finance, an Iraqi delegation headed by Finance Minister Taif Sami concluded its discussions with the IMF’s Article IV mission experts in Amman, Jordan, during which many issues were discussed, including the implementation of the economic reform program, the improvements achieved by the Iraqi government in the field of development infrastructure, financial sustainability, and boosting non-oil revenues.”
It looks like Iraq has been given permission to move forward with their economic reforms as we discussed in January this year was going to take place in February 2024 because of an announcement made during Article 4 consultation with the IMF.
This is why we are seeing the acceptance of Iraq in the WTO, and they can now join other countries in the WTO formulating new price mechanisms that will level the playing field in trade among other nations. Shafaq News

Iraq Banking Announcement:
“The Central Bank of Iraq has decided to restore the mechanism of financing Iraq’s foreign trade, starting next March.”
Look what we have here. Iraq is planning to move forward with financing their foreign trade mechanism.
March 1st, 2024 is the day they expect to begin this process. They are telling their banks that they expect to do this with all currencies.
Iraq has been working with Governmental Agencies and Technological Developers to get them to this point.
They have tested their money and in process of testing their money this month on electronic mechanisms that will help them to move forward in the new Digital asset-based Trading System.
We are on the verge of witnessing them move into a global implementation stage of their currency. Search 4 Dinar

“Over the past year or so, the Fed has been intensely discussing inflation in “core services,” which is where inflation had shifted to in 2022, from goods inflation which had spiked into mid-2022 but then cooled dramatically. So “core services” is where it’s at. Core services is where consumers spend the majority of their money. Core services are all services except energy services. Core services inflation has been behaving badly for months, and in January, it spiked out the wazoo.”
The likelihood of another rate hike was mentioned today. These core readings give the FED an indication how much inflation is taking place and how much money consumers are spending.
Inflation tends to devalue a currency. As we have talked about in this room, the likelihood of currencies creating more purchasing power normally comes with a lowering of interest rates. Wolf Street
Let’s watch their next moves.

Regulatory sandboxes can play an important role in fostering the innovation needed for overcoming the barriers to financial inclusion that keep poor and excluded customers marginalized from the formal financial system.
Sandboxes allow regulators to base their regulatory response to innovations on the results of live experiments. In frontier cases, this helps regulators to make faster and better informed decisions on how to appropriately regulate (and supervise) new services and providers reaching the marketplace.
