Summary

On June 2, 2026, the U.S. Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) designated four Iranian cryptocurrency exchanges — Nobitex, Wallex, Bitpin, and Ramzinex — on the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list under Executive Orders 13224 and 13902 as part of the Trump administration's 'Economic Fury' maximum pressure campaign against Iran. The four exchanges collectively processed approximately $7.7 billion in 2025, representing roughly 78% of Iran's attributed crypto volume, and allegedly facilitated terror finance, sanctions evasion, IRGC-linked ransomware payments, and the Iranian Central Bank's acquisition of hundreds of millions in USDT. Secondary sanctions apply, meaning any foreign financial institution transacting with these entities after June 2, 2026 risks losing U.S. dollar correspondent banking access.
