its up now. the exchange page was the only one down. it was down for about 30 minutes or more.

everything was up but the exchange page. this page is now up too. my cache was cleared. it must have been down temporarily.

not the exchamge page.....

not the exchange page.....

cbi parked again?!?

cbi parked again?!?

it would seem that with the new budget going into effect in september and the german rv happening around 90 days after the marshall plan was implemented, that we are in the home stretch. my best guess is *until september* anything can happen.

so here it is again: voices of iraq webpage is down. the ici webpage is suspended. the cbi site is up but initially came up with the 4-30 data.........

something is going on.

I've read a lot today but maybe I missed this: even though the cbi site is down, did they have their auction?!? All I have seen are references to Monday.

It is back down again. I never was able to pull up the 1269 rates from 4/30 before (and I tried all day yesterday), so I know it had to have been up for a little while ---- this was the first time I had EVER seen 4/30 rates.

I was using my mobile phone. I cannot view it from my comcast internet account. My phone is through t-mobile. I just checked again and it is pulling up. Nothing is cached. I could view the main page for arabic and english most of the day yesterday. I just could not get the exchange pages. Eventually the whole site went down. I'd screen shot it, but i don't think you can on mobile phones. It is windows mobile, so if you know how let me know. I agree that it is not pulling up with comcast, though.

The rates are the 1269 rates from 4-30.

cbi website is up, but no new rates? they are showing the botched up 4-30 rates. also, i thought the 1mil and 2mil dinar sales over the last 2 weeks were peculiar too. i thought about lower denoms, but then i thought - been there, done that.

silence is not very reassuring. seems like everyone just quit posting.....did everyone go to cash in and i miss the bulletin? lol

godaddy followup: you can still acess cbiraq, just not the exchange rate pages. this was an intentional redirection. otherwise, you would have a page not found error.

safedinar has updated their website with an apology, but it is still *as far as we can determine*. they claim the cbi website crashed. from an IT standpoint, this is not a possibility. the only possibilities are expired domain, or intentional redirection. in addition, for safedinar to pull numbers from the site means they are accessing a database server. these numbers were intentionally changed. if a database crashes, there would be no numbers returned to safedinar. i know this was a physical change to the data, but whether it was a mistake, a hacker, or a true rate remains to be determined.

the fact remains that the rate changed at least twice last night.

5 to 1 has to be a glitch - or else the most amazing blessing ever. Too much strangeness for this not to be an indication of the rv! Maybe it is a decimal off - or maybe someone keyed a 1 instead of a 7. Either way .......wow. Hopefully Strong will chime in (thanks for the pms the other day, by the way).

This is completely new today? The ONLY other time they made a reference to the 3 zeros was in a plan a year or so ago that was talking about retuning the value of the dinar to the dollar. If this is completely new, this is really big - so big, it makes you wonder why he mentioned the 3 zeros. Thanks Bud!

strong, your source from your post friday about the hcl and ici is proving to be pretty darn correct. did your source give you a reval date and amount that you could share, or was it merely speculation and educated guesses. i know you werent wanting to give too many details away from your source, and i respect that. just curious if this is the real deal or just another roller coaster week with questions left unanswered.....trying to separate good information from speculation and rumor........

well it looks like you found your password!

strong, please let us know if this or your sources info was based entirely on the cnn site. this could have been the fastest and shortest rollercoaster i have ever ridden.

Strong, what would your best guess be on investor holdings in dinar? For example, I believe I read Ali had 54,000+ customers. If that is correct, then that alone would be 54 billion in dinar holdings if you assumed a 1 million average per person (this is probably a very conservative average due to the amounts I am aware of people buying). This is not counting chase bank investors and other dinar dealer investors. It seems to rapidly deplete the estimated 7-11 trillion circulated dinar estimates.

I thought all of his prices were lower when I looked earlier today ($885 - $1m, etc). But, they have all returned to *normal* now ($900 - $1m, etc).
