US Launches Economic War Against Iran: Sanctions Threaten Crypto Liquidity
The United States has launched an 'economic D-Day' against Iran, imposing massive secondary sanctions on international financial flows. This move targets any entity continuing to engage in financial exchanges with Tehran.
U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the U.S. government has seized $500 million in cryptos linked to Iran and will now take aggressive action to isolate Iran's financial circuits.
The sanctions affect oil flows, swap lines, currency exchange houses, and cash transfers, forcing centralized exchanges and stablecoin liquidity providers to tighten their KYC/AML filters or face prosecution.
