📈 🇮🇷 Explosive growth of crypto activity in Iran
The cryptocurrency activity in Iran surged in 2025, reaching estimated levels between $8 billion and $10 billion in annual volume according to analyses by firms like TRM Labs and Chainalysis. This represents considerable growth compared to previous years and shows that both retail investors and state-linked actors have significantly increased their use of crypto.
Furthermore, about 15 million Iranians — out of a population of ~86 million — are estimated to have had exposure to crypto assets, according to estimates cited by Reuters.
