The United States Treasury has sanctioned eight Canadian money-services businesses over alleged financial channels tied to Iran. OFAC’s action also names six Tron addresses directly in the sanctions listing, putting specific wallet identifiers into the enforcement record alongside the business names. For exchanges, payment firms, and analytics providers handling Tron flows, that means screening can now target those six addresses directly rather than treating the case as a broader network warning.
Separately, Bitquery reported at least $4 million in Tether theft across 365 Tron addresses. Its findings did not establish that every address was tied to the same iOS exploit, and the theft report did not link those addresses to the Canadian firms sanctioned by Treasury. Those are separate developments: one is an official sanctions action naming six addresses; the other is a reported theft investigation.
