Treasury Hits ISIS-K with Crypto Sanctions | Bitcoin and Crypto News
Description
The U.S. Treasury just slapped ISIS-K with crypto sanctions, freezing $1.4M in Tron and Monero wallets linked to their fundraising operations — and Tether stepped in to halt the flow. This isn’t the first time Tether’s helped enforce sanctions, having frozen $182M earlier this year. Meanwhile, the Treasury also targeted a Latin American cartel using crypto to launder $30M, showing how governments are tightening the grip on digital finance as it becomes a tool for illicit activity.
