Chainalysis traces on-chain movement of Iranian oil revenue

  • Chainalysis tracked the on-chain movement of Iranian oil revenue for months
  • Findings linked to a $61 million seizure by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York
  • Data included in the Crypto Crime Report 2026
  • New compliance requirements for crypto exchanges are possible
