LARGEST CRYPTO FREEZE TIED TO IRAN'S WAR: $344M IN USDT BLOCKED



The US Treasury confirmed the funds, held across two Tron wallets ($212.9M and $131.3M), were tied to Iran's Central Bank and local crypto exchanges.

The freeze was executed by Tether in coordination with OFAC as part of Treasury's broader "Economic Fury" campaign against Tehran, marking the single largest crypto seizure ever tied to Iran's war economy.

Iran-linked crypto flows reached an estimated $10B in 2025 according to TRM Labs, much of it routed through Tron-based $USDT.

Total frozen Iranian assets now sit near $2 BILLION.
