The U.S. Treasury, under Secretary Scott Bessent, has seized nearly $500 million in Iranian cryptocurrency assets as part of "Operation Economic Fury." This operation also involved freezing Iranian bank accounts, overseas assets, and financial reserves. Additionally, the U.S. has intensified pressure on Iranian oil buyers, warning of potential secondary sanctions on related industries and banks. The blockade of ports in the Strait of Hormuz has further impacted Iran's economic activities.
