Iran's Cryptocurrency Inflows Decline Amid Geopolitical Tensions and Cybersecurity Issues

According to PANews, blockchain analytics firm TRM Labs has reported a decline in cryptocurrency inflows to Iranian platforms in 2025. This decrease is attributed to the collapse of nuclear negotiations with Israel, a $90 million hack on Iran's largest cryptocurrency exchange, Nobitex, and Tether's freezing of 42 wallets. From January to July, Iran's cryptocurrency traffic reached $3.7 billion, marking an 11% decrease compared to the same period last year, with the most significant drops occurring in June and July.
