Frank26 has streamed more than 1,700 times about an Iraqi dinar revaluation. We took one stream a month since January 2023, wrote down every prediction that could be checked, and compared each one with what actually happened.
Official rate: about 1,310 dinars per dollar, unchanged since February 2023.
This page isn't here to make fun of anyone. Wanting a better future for your family isn't foolish, and plenty of good, careful people have believed in the revaluation.
Hope deserves honest information. Everything below is his own words, the date he said them, and the public record. Every entry links to the exact moment in the original stream, so you can check it yourself instead of taking anyone's word for it, including ours.
Frank26 runs KTFA (“Keep The Faith Always”), a Christian-themed forum and YouTube channel focused on a hoped-for revaluation of the Iraqi dinar. Everything in this section comes from his own website and streams.

Counts come from the 29 streams in this sample unless noted.
About a dozen times per stream. Someone with real inside knowledge wouldn't need to label every statement as opinion. In May 2024 he also told viewers he isn't a wealth adviser and can't advise them.
He refers to “my team” or “my teams” 63 times and a “bank friend” 35 times. Not one of these sources is ever named or can be checked.
Across all his streams. Some refer to political events, but each tells viewers something big is about to happen.
Stream titles advertising health products, supplements or other promotions, across his channel. He has also invited viewers to join a paid membership. Worth asking who benefits from the waiting.
“I wanted it to happen on the 1st of this year. It should have happened by now.”
Frank26, March 16, 2026. Watch the moment
If someone you love believes in the revaluation, please don't mock them. Share one entry from the record, then ask a question instead of making an argument.
We took the livestream closest to the 15th of each month from January 2023 to October 2026. YouTube's automatic captions were scanned for predictions with a specific number, date or event, and each one was read in context. Vague statements like “great news is coming” weren't counted.
Captions can garble words and don't identify speakers. Where a co-host made the statement, the record says so. Transcripts for 17 of the 46 months couldn't be retrieved, and he has streamed over 1,700 times, so this is a sample, not everything he has said.
Last checked: October 5, 2026. Two predictions are still open and will be updated when their deadlines pass.
