HTX  Creation Challenge — Post and Win 1,500U 💥

The U.S. added four crypto wallets linked to the Central Bank of Iran to its sanctions list after a ceasefire agreement between the two countries broke down and air and drone strikes resumed.

The four Tron-blockchain wallets had received more than $165 million in stablecoins, according to Chainalysis. Tether blocked $131 million in $USDT held by the accounts, though some of the funds had moved before the freeze.

Sanctioning the wallets gives exchanges, custodians and compliance firms a clear set of addresses to screen for. Iran’s central bank has accumulated at least $507 million in $USDT, according to Elliptic, using the token to support the rial.

The U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has said its published wallet lists are not exhaustive, meaning other addresses controlled by the bank may still qualify as blocked property.

Tuesday’s OFAC update expands on an existing designation rather than imposing new sanctions. The Central Bank of Iran has been blocked under U.S. counterterrorism authorization since 2019 over its support for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Qods Force and Hezbollah.

The action follows OFAC’s June sanctions on Nobitex and other Iranian exchanges accused of helping the central bank move in and out of stablecoins.

In April, Tether froze $344 million in $USDT linked to the bank, bringing the total blocked across both actions to roughly $475 million.

Chainalysis said the four addresses received funds from an institutional liquidity provider and an Asia-based payment processor,

The frozen tokens remain visible onchain, but the addresses can no longer transfer or redeem them. The freeze, however, does not amount to a seizure as the funds remain under the control of the wallets belonging to Iran’s central bank.

Michael Saylor Pumps Cash Reserves Instead of Bitcoin: This Could Be Why

Michael Saylor, the chairman of the world's largest Bitcoin treasury firm, Strategy, has decided to pause its regular Bitcoin purchases this week.

Unlike the previous week, Strategy failed to release any update on a new Bitcoin purchase for the week; rather, the company reportedly filed with the U.S. SEC to boost its cash reserves.

Strategy spends $450 million to boost its cash reserves

Over the years, Strategy has remained committed to aggressively scooping up Bitcoin to expand its holdings, usually every week after it raises new capital.

Although the crypto community has become familiar with this pattern, the company has surprised the market with a slight tweak in what it did with its capital this time.

Unlike the regular Bitcoin buy activity, Strategy has diverted its funds to boosting its cash reserves by a massive $450 million, a move that has raised eyebrows among investors who expected to see an expansion of its Bitcoin holdings instead.

While the move has sparked discussions across the crypto community, it came after the company raised about $467 million through the sale of MSTR shares under its at-the-market (ATM) program during the week of July 6 to July 12.

Apparently, this means that the company's Bitcoin holdings still sit at around 844,000 BTC, worth about $53 billion, while its cash reserve has now been boosted to $3 billion.

Bitcoin holders ‘will regret not selling above $60K,’ Peter Schiff warnsPeter Schiff, a staunch Bitcoin critic, warned investors against holding the crypto asset at current levels.

According to him, those who fail to offload their BTC stash at the current value above $60K could incur heavy losses. 

Many people, myself included, regret not buying Bitcoin when they first learned about it. Soon, more people will regret not selling Bitcoin above $60K when they had the chance.

Watch for the Donald Trump Effect on Cryptocurrencies Tomorrow


US President Donald Trump is expected to meet with senators tomorrow to try to reach a compromise on the ethical guidelines in his Clarity Act bill, which aims to regulate the cryptocurrency market.

The discussions are reportedly focused on regulation that could restrict senior government officials from having commercial interests in personal cryptocurrency ventures. This provision could include Trump’s business connections in the crypto sector.

Democrats are pushing for such restrictions to be added to the law after Trump announced he expects to generate over $1 billion in revenue from crypto-related businesses by 2025. However, it is reported that the parties have not yet reached an agreement on the ethics regulations, one of the most controversial parts of the bill.

Trump had previously called on Congress to pass the CLARITY Act. However, the US President has not stated whether he would sign the bill if a version restricting his own crypto investments and business dealings were presented to him.

Given the tight Senate schedule, the discussions are considered critical to whether the bill will be passed this year.

Dick Durbin accuses Todd Blanche of shielding Trump’s crypto empireSenate Democrats have intensified scrutiny of Acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche during his confirmation hearing, accusing him of weakening crypto enforcement while President Donald Trump’s digital asset businesses have expanded.

According to proceedings from the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Wednesday, Senator Dick Durbin used his opening remarks to argue that Blanche helped dismantle the Justice Department’s crypto enforcement efforts while serving as deputy attorney general, saying those decisions benefited Trump’s financial interests in the digital asset sector.

Durbin pointed to Blanche’s reported role in disbanding the Justice Department’s crypto enforcement unit in April 2025. The Illinois senator argued that removing the unit allowed Trump to earn an estimated $1.4 billion from crypto-related ventures, including his family’s involvement with World Liberty Financial. Trump has denied wrongdoing connected to his digital asset businesses.

Leading stablecoin issuer Tether invested $20 million in Argentine neobank Ualá, taking an equity stake in a financial platform with more than 11 million customers across Argentina, Mexico and Colombia.

The investment was part of Ualá’s $197 million funding round announced in March, led by Allianz X at a $3.2 billion post-money valuation.

Tether was initially mentioned in Ualá’s announcement, and only later on unveiled the $20 million investment figure. Given the headline valuation, the investment should represent a rough 0.6% stake in the neobank’s post-money equity though the terms may differ.

Ualá offers accounts, cards, lending and investments to more than 11 million customers across Argentina, Mexico and Colombia.

The company’s CEO Pierpaolo Barbieri, according to Bloomberg, has said regulations in Argentina and Mexico prevent a near-term $USDT integration and that Tether joined the round solely as a financial investor.

Tether has made several bets in Argentina and the South American region. It led a $14 million round for payments wallet Belo in April and controls 70% of agricultural and energy producer Adecoagro, which operates across Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay. Earlier this month it invested $20 million in Brazilian crypto exchange Mercado Bitcoin.

Tether funds its investments with excess capital generated by income earned from the reserves that back the $USDT stablecoin, which now has $184 billion in circulation. It posted a $1.04 billion profit in the first quarter.
