Iran Using Crypto to Fund Military Efforts Despite U.S. Sanctions
Iran is using cryptocurrency, particularly USDT, to fund its military operations through its largest crypto exchange, Nobitex, which processes billions in transactions for sanctioned entities. The system allows Iran to bypass Western financial monitoring by converting local currency or existing crypto into USDT, which is then transferred via blockchains like Tron and BNB Smart Chain. This has raised concerns about the effectiveness of sanctions and the role of blockchain in circumventing financial restrictions.
