OFAC sanctions Nobitex and three other Iranian cryptoasset exchanges
  • OFAC has designated Nobitex, Wallex, Bitpin and Ramzinex, plus Nobitex's chairman, two co-founders and its current CEO.

  • Elliptic analysis shows that these exchanges have sent or received at least $40 billion in cryptoassets.

  • Iranian cryptoasset exchanges were already blocked under existing sanctions. The listing names them and adds secondary-sanctions exposure.

  • Elliptic has linked Nobitex to IRGC-aligned activity, central bank stablecoin purchases and potential capital flight after the US-Israeli strikes.

 

Why this matters

OFAC is showing up inside the Compliance & Sanctions theme, so this story is worth tracking for follow-through rather than treating it as a one-off headline.
