A report prepared by Democrats on the US Senate and published on Monday concluded that Tether's USDT stablecoin has become an "important financial lifeline" for Iran and a tool for funding groups allied with it, such as Lebanon's Hezbollah. The report analyzed 846 cryptocurrency wallets sanctioned by Israel and the United States over their ties to Iran, was led by Senator Richard Blumenthal, and found that 84 percent of transactions were conducted in USDT. Tether denied this, stressing its commitment to cooperating with Washington, while the US Treasury launched last month an "economic exclusion operation" focused on cryptocurrency transactions.
