$BTC #IranHormuzSafeCryptoInsurance Iran has reportedly launched a new government-backed platform called Hormuz Safe, which offers maritime insurance for ships traveling through the strategic Strait of Hormuz and allows some payments and settlements in Bitcoin; reports claim the project aims to generate billions in revenue while expanding crypto use in international trade during rising regional tensions and shipping disruptions. The platform is attracting global attention because the Strait of Hormuz handles a large share of the world’s oil shipments, and analysts say the move could increase Bitcoin’s role in sanctions evasion, maritime trade, and geopolitical finance.
