Iran’s Crypto Volumes Hit $7.7B Amid Geopolitical Stress as Tapzi Emerges as Contender
Iran's cryptocurrency ecosystem processed $7.78 billion in 2025, with Chainalysis data showing volume spikes during geopolitical crises. The Kerman bombings, missile exchanges with Israel, and June 2025 escalation coincided with 40-50% inflation and a 90% currency devaluation since 2018.
Meanwhile, projects like Tapzi chart a divergent course—prioritizing participation and execution over crisis-driven adoption. This contrast underscores how investors now weigh sustainability against reactive market moves.
