US freezes $131M in Iran-linked crypto
The US has frozen $131M in crypto assets linked to Iran.
This move follows a similar freeze in April, when $344 million in USDT was frozen at the request of US authorities.
The US has seized around $1 billion in Iranian crypto assets as part of Operation Economic Fury, which launched in March 2025. The operation aims to disrupt the Iranian military’s efforts to acquire weapons.
