Do you think that Cryptocurrency could be a solution to the economic sanctions imposed on Iran?

Again, a lot of people don't understand how sanctions work.
The US is not stopping the money flow, the US is stopping the people that want to deal with Iran of conducting business.

If someone wants to deal with Iran, they are free to do it, if a bank wants to deal with Iran they can do wire transfers for Iranian companies, the problem is that once they do that they can kiss goodbye to any other business in the western world.
That's why China keeps on buying oil and sells the stuff because they do it through companies that have no other business relations in other countries.

Just because you pay something secretly with bitcoin doesn't mean that they will want to deal with you in the first place, they could have paid in gold, oil silver or sheep, their problem is that nobody wants to sell or buy stuff from them as long as the sanctions are in place.

A short while ago the US placed sanctions on Iran, but the Iranian government is not just lying down and taking it. The lastest is from Saeed Muhammad is a proposition that will see Iran use cryptocurrencies to evade economic sanctions.

A short while ago? I was under impression that US placed sanctions on Iran in 2019. The article also cited the same old tweet. I don't think anything new has been added to that. Please check.

Iran is now taking a big step in order to save their economic position, it's a gamble too! Because no one know how it will work in this case. We have an example of Petro in front of us which didn't work as envisaged for Venezuela. Let's just hope that Iran get it right this time. Instead of creating a new national crypto, they must rely on the market listed cryptoa if they want to make something useful out of it. It will be interesting to see how things unfold here!

Can't see that this news has a single ounce of truth in it. The way how they wrote both sides for the US and Iran it feels like they will go to war against each other again just because of Iran scheming to avoid sanctions. The U.S. already announced peace with Iran and they admit that killing their top general was necessary for them, so believing that this news is real will actually be senseless to think that U.S. is here again having reasons just to have a confrontation against Iran. I won't really believe this news especially if it is coming from a crypto news website, I would rather wait what the CNN and BBC news will have to say about this one.
