US Exchanges Still Sending Funds to Sanctioned Iranian Platforms

  • —OFAC sanctioned Bitpin, Nobitex, Ramzinex and Wallex on June 2, 2026
  • —Aban Tether was added to the OFAC list on August 7, 2026
  • —Transfers are visible on Arkham Intelligence, ranging from tens to hundreds of dollars
  • —In traditional finance, direct transfers to sanctioned entities are blocked at the bank level
Why it matters: Direct transfers to sanctioned addresses create regulatory risk for major US exchanges and could draw OFAC penalties.
