About IranCryptoTrade

The FT reports Iran central bank has relaxed FX controls to let exporters repatriate income through domestic exchanges using BTC, USDT and other crypto, which can then pay directly for imports, reducing reliance on the official FX system. The US Treasury is simultaneously expanding sanctions on Iranian digital assets and commercial networks. Scope, policy level and durability remain unclear. Crypto is becoming a settlement channel for cross-border trade under sustained financial sanctions.
