Iran to expand crypto use for oil sales as US tightens sanctions
- —Iran is set to rely more on crypto and stablecoins to sell oil around US sanctions
- —US seized $61 million in stablecoins tied to alleged Iranian black-market crude sales
- —WTI markets price 74% odds of a drop to $85, only 1–4% for $130–150
Why it matters: Growing Iranian crypto oil settlements could raise global supply and blunt the impact of US sanctions enforcement.
