Svmuu News: Wallets with clear ties to Iran have transferred over $3.84 billion in transaction funds through the cryptocurrency exchange CoinEx since 2019. Among these, CoinEx-hosted wallets received hacked crypto assets obtained by the Central Bank of Iran and directly transacted with accounts previously attributed to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps by U.S. officials.

Blockchain data shows that in 2024, CoinEx has replaced Binance as the largest foreign counterparty for Nobitex, Iran's largest domestic crypto exchange. Last year, funds exchanged between Nobitex and CoinEx exceeded $763 million. Additionally, between 2022 and 2025, CoinEx-hosted wallets also processed transactions for Alireza Derakhshan, an Iranian individual allegedly involved in a sanctioned oil sales network. (WSJ)
