Enligt Ardoino har dessa \u00e5tg\u00e4rder lett till att volymerna f\u00f6r Iran-kopplade stablecoins minskat med 94 %.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Uppgifterna \u00e4r en del av Tethers svar p\u00e5 en rapport fr\u00e5n den amerikanska senaten. Bolaget har dock inte offentliggjort vilken m\u00e4tperiod, baslinje, upps\u00e4ttning adresser eller tillg\u00e5ngar som ligger till grund f\u00f6r den rapporterade volymminskningen.

En separat siffra p\u00e5 99 % r\u00f6r hur snabbt Tether agerat i f\u00f6rh\u00e5llande till m\u00e4rkningar fr\u00e5n Chainalysis.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rapporten, med titeln <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hsgac.senate.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026-09-28-Crypto-and-Irans-Shadow-Banking-Network.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tethered to Terrorism<\/a><\/em>, publicerades den 28 september av den demokratiska staben i senatens permanenta underkommitt\u00e9 f\u00f6r utredningar. Rapporten granskade 846 pl\u00e5nb\u00f6cker som sanktionerats eller varit f\u00f6rem\u00e5l f\u00f6r beslag p\u00e5 grund av kopplingar till Iran och dess ombud mellan juni 2021 och augusti 2026. Slutsatsen var att 84 % av dessa pl\u00e5nb\u00f6cker uteslutande, eller n\u00e4stan uteslutande, handlade med USDT.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ett specifikt fall i rapporten komplicerar dock Tethers bild av tidiga ingripanden. Israels NBCTF pekade ut 39 pl\u00e5nb\u00f6cker kopplade till Hezbollah-finansi\u00e4ren Tawfiq Muhammad Sa\u2019id Al-Law i juni 2023. Tether fr\u00f6s fem av dessa, medan de \u00f6vriga 34 f\u00f6rblev \u00f6ppna fram till mars 2024. Under den mellanliggande perioden l\u00e4mnade mer \u00e4n 34,6 miljoner dollar i USDT dessa pl\u00e5nb\u00f6cker.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rapporten gav Tether erk\u00e4nnande f\u00f6r att ha svarat p\u00e5 utpekanden &#8221;i vissa fall&#8221; sedan slutet av 2023, men beskrev de \u00f6vergripande insatserna som oj\u00e4mna och inkonsekventa. Senatens resultat omfattar b\u00e5de anv\u00e4ndningen av USDT i pl\u00e5nb\u00f6ckerna och tidpunkten f\u00f6r \u00e5tg\u00e4rder i enskilda fall, vilket st\u00e4ller f\u00f6retagets f\u00f6rsvar g\u00e4llande snabbhet mot den specifika perioden av fortsatta \u00f6verf\u00f6ringar.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">N\u00e4ra 550 miljoner dollar fr\u00e5n Iran i separata frysningar under 2026<\/h2><span class=\"replacer\"><\/span><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I ett offentligg\u00f6rande den 28 september meddelade Tether att man st\u00f6ttat frysningar av n\u00e4stan 550 miljoner dollar i Iran-kopplad USDT under 2026. Den totala summan inkluderade mer \u00e4n 344 miljoner dollar f\u00f6rdelat p\u00e5 tv\u00e5 adresser i april och \u00f6ver 130 miljoner dollar i fyra pl\u00e5nb\u00f6cker i juli.
