Iran Eyes Crypto Tolls for Oil Tankers According to the Financial Times, Iran plans to charge crypto-denominated transit fees of about $1 per barrel on fully loaded oil tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz during the two-week ceasefire with the U.S.; vessels must submit cargo details via email and settle payments in digital assets such as Bitcoin, while empty tankers may be exempt; Hamid Hosseini said the move aims to monitor traffic and prevent weapons transfers during the ceasefire.
