Trading tournaments in Iran
Iran is SKIPPED in v1 entirely. OFAC's 2025 clarification treats Iranian digital-asset exchanges as already blocked financial institutions under the Iran country sanctions program — separate SDN designations are redundant. Nobitex (~70% of Iranian crypto market, ~$7.2B 2025 volume per Elliptic) is not on OFAC SDN but has documented IRGC linkages, leaked source code with sanctions-evasion modules, and was exploited for $90M+ in June 2025. In January 2026 OFAC designated Zedcex + Zedxion (UK-registered IRGC-linked exchanges) — first direct IRGC-linked digital-asset designations. Affiliating with Iranian exchanges from a US-incorporated or EU-incorporated trading-tournaments.com entity creates primary or secondary OFAC sanctions exposure plus payment-processor refusal risk. The 'Nobitex Grand Prize' is a running marathon sponsorship (Persian Gulf Half Marathon, Kish Island, December 2025), NOT a trading contest. TSE retail tournaments are essentially nil. Re-evaluate post-launch with legal counsel if traffic / business case justifies.
SKIPPED in v1 entirely per OFAC sanctions posture. Internal reference document maintained but no public landing page.
Regulation
OFAC treats Iranian digital-asset exchanges as already blocked under the Iran country sanctions program. US persons (and many EU/UK persons under secondary-sanctions exposure) are prohibited from transacting with them. Payment processors (Stripe, PayPal, most crypto onramps) will not service Iran-exchange affiliate flows. Iran is NOT tagged as eligible market on global crypto / forex events — global exchanges already exclude Iranian KYC.
Not available to Iran residents
All Iranian-domiciled exchanges (Nobitex, Wallex, Ramzinex, Tabdeal, Bitpin, Phinix, ExNovin, Excoino): NOT LISTED on trading-tournaments.com per sanctions disclaimer. Global crypto exchanges already exclude Iranian KYC.
