The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has filed a civil forfeiture complaint against $61 million in cryptocurrency proceeds from the sale of Iranian oil, allegedly laundered through Binance.

This move follows the US Treasury's launch of 'Operation Economic Outcast' as part of its efforts to counter Iran's illicit activities.

The DOJ claims that the money was obtained by laundering Iranian oil proceeds through Binance, a cryptocurrency exchange.
