On 28 November, the U.S. Treasury Department announced that cryptocurrency exchange Kraken has agreed to pay a settlement fee of $362,000 against accusations that it violated sanctions against Iran.
One of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges, Kraken, was investigated by the United States Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, or OFAC, in July 2022. In the end, it was discovered that Kraken supplied consumers from Iran and other sanctioned nations.
