Your post is a very accurate analysis of the current situation. Iran is trying to turn the Strait of Hormuz into a "crypto customs" to evade the collapse of its local currency and banking sanctions, using blockchain technology as its latest financial lifeline. But stablecoins are the biggest risk for Iran. If the issuer (Tether or Circle) decides to cooperate with the OFAC, it can "turn off" Iran's money with a click. That's why they are pressuring China and the BRICS to generate their own stablecoins or CDBC.

The toll of Hormuz in Iran could be charged in stablecoins, not in Bitcoin: Chainalysis

Iran is demanding payments in cryptocurrencies from oil tankers transiting through the Strait of Hormuz. Hamid Hosseini, spokesperson for the Union of Exporters of Oil, Gas and Petrochemical Products of Iran, specifically mentioned Bitcoin (BTC) in a recent statement.

However, Chainalysis suggests that stablecoins could be the preferred instrument, in line with how the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has historically moved money.

Stablecoins fit into Iran's strategy
