Iran Set to have its Own National Cryptocurrency

U.S Sanction

Source: news.livecoinwatch.com

The U.S Government, under the current President, Donald Trump has issued some major sanction against some countries. Of the countries still under the U.S sanction, Iran seems to be one of the most affected ones. The U.S Sanction has affected the Iranian national currency, Rial, greatly. The national currency has dropped in value and it hasn’t recovered ever since the section took effect. In bids to revive the country’s economy, the Iranian Government has made it known that it is currently exploring several options to circumvent the U.S sanction and its effects. Developing a national cryptocurrency has been identified by the government as the most promising one, of the options available.

The U.S Sanction on Iran

The American President, Donald Trump made an announcement earlier this year. He made it known that it will reinforce economic sanctions on Iran.
The impact of this sanction on Iran’s currency, the Rial, is quite enormous. The sanction saw its value crashing through the proverbial floor.
This has driven the Iranian authorities to start exploring alternatives.
Based on the most recent interview granted by the head of the country’s Civil Defense Organisation, Brigadier General Gholamreza Jalali, cryptocurrencies are being seen as a way around.

Jalali made it known in the interview that:

“Iran faced problems with the SWIFT system that’s used to underpin most international money and security transfers.”

He further stated that:

“Our major problem here is the US dollar because the United States uses its national currency to control any country’s SWIFT operations, so we should reduce dependence on the dollar and replace it with another currency”,

He also stated that:

“cryptocurrencies can help bypass certain sanctions through untraceable banking operations”.

Going by his statement, it looks like the country is already set on having its own national crypto at all cost.
