41sEducational segment revealing the dramatic devaluation of Iranian currency due to sanctions, sparking curiosity about its future.
▶ Play Clip"Title promises investment reality but delivers a balanced caution; somewhat informative but padded with personal anecdotes and promotional content."
The video discusses the hype around investing in Iranian currency, particularly in Pakistan, and evaluates whether it is a viable investment. The speaker explains the historical devaluation of the Iranian rial due to sanctions, the potential for appreciation if sanctions are lifted, and the risks of buying through black markets. He advises against heavy investment and suggests alternative strategies like Bitcoin mining in Iran.
The speaker shows Iranian banknotes with Khomeini's image and notes the buzz in Pakistan about buying Iranian currency, with people believing 5 rupee notes will become 25.
The speaker says Iranian currency has doubled since the war started, with a 1 lakh rial note now costing Rs 800, up from Rs 300-350.
1 crore Iranian rials costs Rs 9,000 to buy, but selling price is Rs 6,500-7,000 per crore. This shows a bid-ask spread.
40 years ago, before sanctions, 1 crore Iranian rials was worth Rs 45,000 in Pakistani currency, when the Pakistani rupee was strong (1 USD = 2 PKR).
Iran's currency lost value because it was not tradable globally due to sanctions; it had no value outside Iran.
If sanctions are lifted, Iran can trade globally, increasing demand for its currency and potentially causing appreciation.
The speaker warns not to risk 100% of portfolio, giving an example of a relative who was about to invest his entire retirement savings.
Legal method: passport with Iranian visa and money exchanger. Under-the-table: through banks informally. Black market: illegal, no records.
Iran has cheap electricity (petrol Rs 8/liter, two ACs in small houses) and fast internet. Mining cost per Bitcoin is $500-$800, much lower than Pakistan.
The speaker will not invest in currency but in mining setups if sanctions lift. Advises to avoid illegal methods and invest wisely.
Investing in Iranian currency carries high risk due to regulatory and market uncertainties, and the speaker recommends against putting substantial money into it. Instead, he suggests considering Bitcoin mining in Iran if sanctions are lifted, leveraging cheap electricity costs.

The speaker promotes his own platform, mixing advice with self-promotion.
12:36[00:02] look here, the picture of Agha Rahbar, who was their Agha Khomeini, the creator of the old revolution, is printed on the currency of Iran. Ok? This is what we have from Bahrain. I do n't know whether it is called Dinar or Dram in Bahrain. I don't know. Ok? And
[00:16] after that it became Chachu Dollar and after that it became for the rest of the countries. So brother, there is a buzz in the whole of Pakistan that brother, let's buy the currency of Iran. brother, let's buy the currency of Iran. If today we are getting this note of ₹5
[00:28] then in the coming days this note will become of ₹25. Ok? Even you people must have seen that in Karachi and Islamabad, Pindi etc. I am getting to know about some things that people are buying Iranian currency in bulk. And it is not just this that from the
[00:41] day the war started till today its currency has doubled. This note in the open market, you people must be seeing it as ₹10 here. But if you look a little higher, there are one, two, three, four and
[00:55] one, two, three, four and four zeros along with it. So this is ₹1 lakh of Iran. How much? ₹1 lakh. If I go to buy this from the market, I am getting it for ₹1 lakh ₹800.
[01:08] Currently it is available for ₹800. When I went to Zaraat or some of my family members went to Zaraat, this note of ₹1 lakh was
[01:20] available for Rs 300-350 instead of Rs 800. So today its price has increased significantly. Ok? Well, now the point here is that there is a big difference in its sale purchase price also. When you go to take it, you have to say 1 lakh, if you multiply it by 100 then it will become
[01:36] 1 crore. Ok? When you go to collect 1 crore Iranian currency, you get 9000 rupees. Ok? Whereas earlier it was available for Ok? Whereas earlier it was available for how much? 4000 for 5000.
[01:50] Getting Rs 1 crore for Rs 9000. But when you people are going to sell this, then this note of Rs 7000 or Rs 6500 is being taken from you for Rs 1 crore. Now the question arises whether we should accept Iranian currency? Is its price going to pump up a lot in the coming days
[02:05] ? Are we going to become millionaires by investing lakhs of rupees ? Is this a misconception or is it really going to happen in such a reality. So step by step you guys have to follow this video today. After this you people have to decide whether
[02:19] you should buy this currency of Iran or not. Let me sanctions on Iran for 40 years. When there were no sanctions, what amounted to Rs
[02:32] 1 crore in Iranian currency was worth Rs 45,000 in Pakistani currency. We used to take Rs 1 crore from Iran by giving Rs 45,000 to Pakistan. But keep in mind that at that time the Pakistani
[02:44] rupee was also very strong. The USD at that time was worth two to ₹. So think how strong the Pakistani rupee was. Still, by paying ₹45,000 you could have bought one crore rupees from Iran. Nowadays, Pakistan's currency is also weak and 40 years have
[03:00] passed since then. I am talking about the current price by giving you Rs 7000. I am you people are buying 7000 to 1 crore. Ok? This means that Iran's currency has devalued significantly. Now, there is a FOMO in the minds of all of us that
[03:15] as soon as the sanctions list from Iran is released, in simple words, as soon as the in simple words, as soon as the sanctions from Iran will be lifted. Why did Iran's money lose value? It decreased because they
[03:30] Neither within Europe nor in any other country. Ok? So there were a lot of restrictions on him. Especially living in their country, you could not even use Western Union, Money Gram etc. inside Pakistan. Meaning that their currency had
[03:43] no value in the world. Iran had value to its extent. So when it comes inside Pakistan , Dubai, US, then brother, it will have no value. Ok? If there is, it will be very little. Due to this, Iran's currency went down. Now when the sanctions on Iran are
[03:56] lifted, then Iran will be Iran will sign an agreement with America on nuclear weapons, in which our field master has also gone to Iran
[04:11] just now to resolve this issue, this knot, and America's demand is that if Iran agrees to this thing that it backs down from its demand for nuclear facilities or nuclear weapons, then we will open the markets for it in the world.
[04:25] Meaning he will then be able to trade all over the world. How can I trade? Meaning he will be able to sell his goods all over the world. When we can sell the goods, for example, we buy chocolates across the Iran border. Iranian blankets are very famous. Iranian
[04:38] oil is very famous. You guys know this, right ? When we used to buy something from there by paying our money, we used to ditch them. Meaning, they used to insult us by saying, no brother, no brother, in exchange of ₹1000, we will take things worth crores of rupees from you, Iranian Pakistani, in exchange of ₹000, we will take things worth crores of rupees from you.
[04:52] starts circulating, Bhaijaan his value will increase further. Then they will say that brother, , petrol from us, oil from us etc. etc. I am giving you an example. I am giving a common example. So brother, bring our money.
[05:07] Ok? Bring our currency. So what will happen? The demand for this currency will increase. As soon as the demand for this currency increases, its price automatically pumps up. It is a normal thing. These are not hidden things. You guys know.
[05:20] Bhaijaan, should we take it or not and if we take it then how will we take it? Where the real issue gets stuck. Bhaijaan, keep this in mind that you should never risk 100% of your portfolio. I have a relative who is a government
[05:34] officer. He has to retire in a few days. friend, I have to retire. So don't do this to me that you give So I was shocked that how people have resorted to such nonsense acts. Never
[05:49] take risk with your portfolio. First of all understand this. If you want to take a risk, you can take a little risk. Ok? Now I will come to this in this video that Bhaijaan how to take this? How do you guys go about buying it etc.? Ok? If you want to take risk, then
[06:01] you can take risk to some extent. You should not mistake Iranian currency for Bitcoin. If he crosses this limit then Bhaijaan will lose how many Xs. Ok ? So brother, therefore do not put your entire portfolio at risk on this.
[06:14] Secondly, you people might be thinking that brother, I have probably kept these currencies from country I go to, I bring one or two notes of that country's currency with me. Just For is my hobby. Ok? So I have not stocked any other currencies.
[06:27] Yes, now the question arises, how to take it ? Now see, you people have two ways, rather three ways, to get international currency. Ok? The first method is the most legal method, the best method and the maximum method used in which
[06:40] you people do not come under any grip of law. The first method is that you take your passport and go to the money exchanger, but your passport should have a legal visa stamp of Iran, nowadays sorry it is e-visa, you should have the e-visa in your hands, then
[06:56] you will get the currency of Iran from the money exchanger, which is the purest and legal method, and that too you people should not take 50 lakhs and go away like a Pakistani, saying brother, give me 50 lakh Iranian Rials or these are called Toman,
[07:11] give me this, okay, it is a certain amount. I think visas for five people in the house. Pick up five passports and go away and
[07:24] you can take as much as you can get against the five passports. The second method is that this business happens under the table everywhere inside banks. Ok? Now some people say that it does not happen, then there is no bigger fool than them. Ok ? Or some people may say why did you say this
[07:39] ? These things are not meant to be told. everyone knows. Ok? Under the table, within every banking system, there is trading of dollars as well as other currencies. So Bhaijaan, you can talk to him under the table. But listen to the third one first,
[07:53] then I will tell you its highlights. Third, the black market. Now what does black market mean? Bhaijaan, for example, I have a lot of Iranian Tomans or in simple words, you can understand it as Riyal. Ok? Iranian rials are lying around.
[08:06] Now Bhaijaan, when I came to know that there is demand for this money in the market, then you also came to me, he also came, he also came, he also came. Everyone came to me, should I give them Iranian currency? I gave it to them at the rate of my choice, for example, if they are
[08:18] getting Rs 6000 crore in the market. I gave you Rs 8000 crore. Ok? I gave you Rs 8000 crore. Ok? But neither is there any financial statement of the currency above Rs 8000 that you have taken nor is it
[08:32] you go to a money exchanger with your passport, your passport is scanned. That money is issued properly in your name. So that becomes purely your black money. Pure is what is called black money. You can be picked up at any time. You can be hanged at any time.
[08:47] You have no reason to present your explanation. You must have seen present your explanation. You must have seen rupees of Iranian currency were seized. Let me tell you another legal way. For example,
[08:59] you have a cousin, uncle or aunt who lives in Iran. Tell him to take it there and keep it for you. It is a simple method. The only legal way to get it in Pakistan is to only legal way to get it in Pakistan is to
[09:13] take any big risk. Because for example, you know that I know that the sanctions on Iran will be lifted. I don't know, we are taking a risk, it is possible that the restrictions may not be lifted, then what will happen, then brother, this ₹7000 crore that we are getting, it is possible that it may become
[09:26] 700 crore, so if we have to take a risk, then the risk is taken wisely on that thing, in fact, even if you people are 100% sure, then the entire portfolio is never invested in one thing, yes now if you people ask me that
[09:39] brother, am I going to make this purchase or not, then brother, I am definitely going to invest in Iran if the restrictions are lifted, but you people will invest in it in currency. I will not do it in currency. You
[09:53] all know the cheapest countries in the world which have the cheapest electricity. Lebanon is at number one. Syria is at second place. Iran is at third place. Have you ever visited Iran? Many of you might have been to Iran, but there are
[10:05] Many of you might have been to Iran, but there are I didn't see it. I have visited six-seven cities there. Even if it is correct. Even in small houses, two ACs are installed there. Why? The energy
[10:17] cost there is very low. Even in war conditions, petrol there is ₹8 per litre. Are you understanding this? Now you people have to go and Google it today and see that if Bitcoin is mined,
[10:35] biggest cost is electricity. The second cost is that of the internet. There is second cost is that of the internet. There is also abuse you. Ok? But the internet inside Iran
[10:48] is very fast. Secondly, we do not have any problem of energy or electricity there. If the restrictions are lifted from it. If the condition is that the restrictions are lifted then I can import machinery there and I can
[11:02] set up my mining setup there. Now you guys have to go and Google it today and you will find out that you can make one Bitcoin there for between $500 to $800. You may not know many people but if you Google it now you will know.
[11:16] Energy is so cheap there. The price of one Bitcoin is currently $0.0000 and if you want to mine it, then your cost for mining is coming to $800 while sitting in Iran. If you mine it inside Pakistan then you know that it
[11:28] costs between $65 to $0000 to mine one Bitcoin. Ok? And it's cheaper inside Lebanon than in Iran. Ok? You can also see this. I will never invest in their currency.
[11:41] Inshallah I will go there and think about the mining setup. If the restrictions are lifted then okay? So, do n't go on any illegal side. It should not happen that brother, in your attempt to convert your thousand into 2000, you first end up in jail.
[11:56] Ok? Money Laundering Act is applicable on this and you can also Google the punishment for it and see what are the disadvantages if you visit an illegal site. Whatever other details there are, I will keep sharing them with
[12:09] minute an update keeps coming that brother Asim Munir Sahab has reached Iran. Field Marshal Sir and after that, those who have reached there, then what are the market dynamics going to happen now, should we short, all those details are available
[12:23] and there we have done an airdrop of almost 23 to 25 lakhs, we have members know it very well there, if you people also want to join in it, then you will get the link in the description and along with that you people will
[12:36] You guys should register and create an account on that too because in the coming days, similar giveaways and airdrops are going to happen on that too, just airdrop of 20 to 25 lakhs on Binance, Alhamdulillah. Ok ? What will be its conditions, we will get it within a day or two.
[12:50] But to implement it, you must already have you will get the link of bitgat in the description. You can click on it, and also keep some funds in it
[13:02] So hopefully all the matters would have become clear to you all. You people must have come to know that what is the future of Iran's currency, if you want to buy it then not and if you think about it in a bigger spectrum then you people
[13:17] in the next video, take very good care of yourself, Allah Hafiz Pakistan Zindabad
