#TheCryptocalypseChronicles: Iran vs. Israel... On the Blockchain

The cease fire between Israel and Iran does not appear to apply to cyber warfare. #Tether and other #stablecoin companies have been seizing a lot of Iranians' assets almost certainly at Israel's request... which is kind of funny when you know that:

1) Tether has more or less openly encouraged Iranians to use Tether as a way to evade sanctions for years

2) Benjamin Netanyahu's son Yair spends a lot of time with Tether's founders.

(RTs appreciated)

lol the iranian crypto exchange #nobitex (the one that was laundering money for #IRGC, russians, etc) used a #DMCA takedown to get its source code taken down by #github

july has already blown away the record for the total number of blockchain addresses seized/frozen by #Tether. one of the wallets with the highest lifetime value received (~$360 million) transacted with known Iranian wallets (specifically #Nobitex, the largest #crypto exchange in #Iran). my hunch is that a lot of these are iranian wallets frozen at the behest of #Netanyahu and co.

not that anyone cares, but a business partner of the president of the united states (Justin Sun) is running a #cryptocurrency marketplace (#HTX) that appears to be shipping millions of dollars worth of #Tether to #Iranian #crypto businesses.

pro tip: if you are an iranian crypto exchange engaged in laundering money for #terrorists, vladimir putin, and worse and you are being actively hunted by multiple foreign intelligence agencies but you don't want israeli cyber teams to hack your shit and steal all your money, a good first step is to not check all your secret keys and passwords into the #git repo where hundreds of people can access them

TRM Labs released some analysis of the #Nobitex source code that was leaked by an Israeli team that hacked the company (Nobitex is the largest #cryptocurrency exchange in #Iran and probably the largest crypto exchange anywhere to take such an extreme approach to hiding its own tracks (and its users' tracks).

of course they also hardcoded a bunch of auth keys into the source code... so maybe they weren't *that* privacy focused. or maybe they decided to do some "outsourcing" of the dev team (lol).
