#nobitex — Public Fediverse posts

#Tether, the company which issues the stablecoin by the same name, said it had frozen multiple wallet addresses associated with #Nobitex at the request of #Israel. Israel’s National Bureau for Counter Terror Financing did not comment.

Tether said #crypto exchanges & platforms are responsible for compliance in #trading on secondary markets.

#Trump’s return to the White House in Jan 2025 – & his embrace of crypto – has significantly shaped the fortunes of his family, Sun & Zhao.

#criminal #law

It is unclear whether #Tron & #BNBChain were aware their networks were used by the central bank of #Iran & #Nobitex, which has not been specifically sanctioned. Doing business with Iranian entities falls under general Western #sanctions. Reuters could not determine why the #UnitedStates has not sanctioned Nobitex.

#Trump #criminal #law #scammer #fraud #kleptocracy #emoluments #MoneyLaundering #crypto

The central bank also converted the tether to different coins & used other blockchains – including #BNBChain – to cover its tracks, the #Iran specialists said. Some of that #crypto was converted back to tether & routed to #Nobitex & other exchanges, the specialists added.

Since its founding in 2018, Nobitex has processed between tens of millions & hundreds of millions of dollars in transactions linked to sanctioned groups including #Iran’s central bank & the #IRGC…

#MoneyLaundering #Trump #law

…among those to use #Tron & #BNBChain was the #CentralBankOfIran. The #US sanctioned the central bank in 2019 for allegedly providing billions of dollars to the #IRGC & #Lebanon’s #Hezbollah.

The central bank bought >$500 million of tether via Tron between Nov 2024 & June 2025, acc/to a report in January by blockchain analysis company Elliptic & the 2 #Iran specialists. In the first 6 months of last year, ~$347 million of the total was sent to #Nobitex using Tron, Elliptic told Reuters.

#Trump

#Iran money has kept moving through those 2 digital ledgers during the #US & #Israel #war against the Islamic Republic.

Sun & #Binance, the #crypto exchange owned by Zhao, are both prominent backers of #WorldLibertyFinancial, the crypto firm co-founded by #Trump & his family.

There’s no suggestion that the Trump family knew of #Nobitex’s use of #Tron & #BNBChain [🙄].

#criminal #law #scammer #fraud #kleptocracy #emoluments #MoneyLaundering

When customers of #Iran’s largest #crypto exchange needed to move billions of dollars, networks created by 2 of the industry’s biggest players served as conduits.

From the early stages of #Trump’s flagship #DigitalCurrency venture, the same 2 players lent credibility to the startup.

Acc/to data analysed by Reuters, Iran’s #Nobitex has processed at least $2.3 billion since 2023 on #Tron & #BNBChain, blockchains established respectively under crypto #billionaires #JustinSun & #ChangpengZhao.…

How Trump’s #crypto venture & Iran’s top exchange tapped into the same industry networks

Iran’s #Nobitex has processed at least $2.3 billion through #Tron & #BNBChain, blockchain ledgers started by backers of the #Trump family’s #WorldLibertyFinancial. The flows underscore the awkward juxtaposition of Trump’s business dealings & the #US presidency.

#TheCryptocalypseChronicles: Iran vs. Israel... On the Blockchain

The cease fire between Israel and Iran does not appear to apply to cyber warfare. #Tether and other #stablecoin companies have been seizing a lot of Iranians' assets almost certainly at Israel's request... which is kind of funny when you know that:

1) Tether has more or less openly encouraged Iranians to use Tether as a way to evade sanctions for years

2) Benjamin Netanyahu's son Yair spends a lot of time with Tether's founders.

july has already blown away the record for the total number of blockchain addresses seized/frozen by #Tether. one of the wallets with the highest lifetime value received (~$360 million) transacted with known Iranian wallets (specifically #Nobitex, the largest #crypto exchange in #Iran). my hunch is that a lot of these are iranian wallets frozen at the behest of #Netanyahu and co.

@jmcrookston yeah i mean, there's nothing surprising about this and i would guarantee it's just the tip of the iceberg, but it's still nice to see such a clear cut and dry connection from #HTX to #Nobitex

not that anyone cares, but a business partner of the president of the united states (Justin Sun) is running a #cryptocurrency marketplace (#HTX) that appears to be shipping millions of dollars worth of #Tether to #Iranian #crypto businesses.

pro tip: if you are an iranian crypto exchange engaged in laundering money for #terrorists, vladimir putin, and worse and you are being actively hunted by multiple foreign intelligence agencies but you don't want israeli cyber teams to hack your shit and steal all your money, a good first step is to not check all your secret keys and passwords into the #git repo where hundreds of people can access them

https://github.com/fotechv/Nobitex-Source-Code/blob/main/core/exchange/settings.py

TRM Labs released some analysis of the #Nobitex source code that was leaked by an Israeli team that hacked the company (Nobitex is the largest #cryptocurrency exchange in #Iran and probably the largest crypto exchange anywhere to take such an extreme approach to hiding its own tracks (and its users' tracks).

of course they also hardcoded a bunch of auth keys into the source code... so maybe they weren't *that* privacy focused. or maybe they decided to do some "outsourcing" of the dev team (lol).

Since #Israel attacked #Iran Tether has frozen 112 blockchain wallets on Tron and Ethereum (the #crypto equivalent of freezing a bank account, usually on suspicion/proof of money laundering).

- Collectively those wallets received ~$700 million before being frozen
- The top 40 of those accounts are *all* on #JustinSun's #Tron blockchain
- Iranian exchanges almost exclusively use #Tether on Tron for USD xfers. They even publicly instruct their users on how to avoid #sanctions
- The Iranian govt, including the #IRGC (a sanctioned #terrorist group), has long been rumoured to be among the Iranians using Tether to move money to their proxies like #Hezbollah and #Hamas
- Israelis hacked the largest Iranian crypto exchange #Nobitex for $90 million last week. Nobitex is the largest user of USDT that I know of in Iran
- Justin Sun is now Trump's biz partner (and #HowardLutnick has been Tether's partner for yrs)

@jakebrake @Lydie stablecoins aren't "mined" the way that bitcoin and eth are, they are just "minted" when the stablecoin's issuer pushes the "mint new stablecoins" button.

i'll spare you the details unless you really want to understand it but i wrote an explainer of what a stablecoin really is for (hopefully) non-technical people back in october: https://cryptadamus.substack.com/p/trumps-transition-team-is-tethered

also includes a lot of specifics on the way iran, north korea, chinese organized crime, and every other bad actor on the global stage has been laundering incredible sums of money with the help of the man donald trump made America's Secretary of Commerce (Howard Lutnick)

Predatory Sparrow group previously hacked Iran’s state-owned Bank Sepah has also hacked Iran’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, Nobitex and destroyed $90M. The stolen crypto included bitcoin, ethereum, doge, ripple, solana, tron, and ton.

The funds were drained from platform wallets into addresses bearing anti-government messages explicitly referencing Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and were burner wallets — strongly suggesting the money was intentionally destroyed, not stolen for profit.

#Iran’s largest crypto exchange, #Nobitex, was #hacked, resulting in the theft of at least $90 million from its hot wallet. The pro-Israel hacking group Predatory Sparrow claimed responsibility, alleging Nobitex financed terrorism and evaded sanctions. https://techcrunch.com/2025/06/18/hackers-steal-and-destroy-millions-from-irans-largest-crypto-exchange/?eickercrypto.com #crypto #blockchain
