Iran's leading cryptocurrency exchange Nobitex has processed millions of dollars worth of trades on the Tron and BNB Chain networks since the start of the Iran war. Nobitex, which handles about 70% of Iran's crypto activity, reportedly moved over $2 billion on Tron and $317 million on BNB Chain since January 2023.

Tron stated it cannot monitor every transaction but has initiatives to freeze funds linked to illicit activities. The situation highlights concerns over digital assets being used to bypass U.S.-led financial sanctions.
