As the Iraqi Dinar revalues, the U.S. Dollar will be strengthened. Bitcoin will lose what little value that it has. So will the other currencies.

However, things will not last like this forever. The Dollar will collapse. The Dinar will only slow it down some.

Many people in my country have bank loans in Swiss currency and this will not make them happy.
In fact, life for them just become more difficult and stressful.
I really hope that soon all people will see advantage of bitcoin Smiley
