HAPPENING NOW! Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent has just FROZEN over $344 MILLION in cryptocurrency linked to Iranian regime officials: "Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control is sanctioning multiple wallets tied to Iran — resulting in the freeze of $344 million in cryptocurrency." "We will follow the money that Tehran is desperately attempting to move outside of the country and target all financial lifelines tied to the regime." "What may prove to be FATAL mistakes the Iranians made was bombing their [Gulf] NEIGHBORS." "Who are now willing to be much more transparent in terms of the funds or do a deeper dive in investigating the funds that are held within their banking systems."

Gulf states that previously tolerated Iranian money in their banking systems are now handing over account details to the U.S. Treasury, allowing the government to freeze IRGC-linked assets across the region. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says the shift happened because Iran bombed its own Gulf neighbors during the conflict. Countries that were "somewhat permissive" with Iranian regime money suddenly became cooperative. So far, the U.S. has seized nearly $500 million in Iranian cryptocurrency. It is also freezing IRGC retirement funds held abroad and tracking regime-linked real estate worldwide. Iran's currency is down 60-70% against the dollar. Its largest bank collapsed in December. Bessent says the main oil export terminal at Kharg Island is at a "virtual standstill," and once storage fills, wells will need to be capped, causing permanent damage to production capacity.
