CLAIM Publié par will • Jun 06, 2026
While the sanctions aim to curb illicit finance, it is important to consider how they may affect ordinary Iranians who use crypto for legitimate purposes. The consequences of such sanctions could disproportionately harm everyday citizens rather than the intended targets.

CLAIM Publié par will • Jun 06, 2026
It remains unclear how effective these sanctions will be in actually curbing illegal activities. Crypto transactions are decentralized by nature, and sanctions may push these exchanges into more obscure, less regulated environments, complicating enforcement.
