U.S. Treasury sanctions Shelbit, Kayvanpour, and Aban Tether
OFAC designated the Dubai exchange, its founder, and the Iran-based exchange for providing material support to the IRGC and other designated entities.
Shelbit website reactivated and denial issued
Shelbit’s previously dormant website went back online; the exchange issued a statement denying knowing involvement in money laundering or sanctions evasion.
Reuters investigation published
A Reuters report identified Shelbit as the hub of a $4 billion Iranian sanctions evasion network, detailing flows from bitcoin mining and gambling operations.
Nobitex designated by OFAC
The U.S. Treasury sanctioned Nobitex for enabling Iranian sanctions evasion, following a Reuters investigation.
Shelbit claimed cessation of operations
Shelbit later stated it ceased operations in January 2026, though the Treasury alleges activity continued.
The U.S. Treasury’s sanctions on Dubai-based Shelbit and founder Siavash Kayvanpour mark a significant legal escalation, building on a Reuters probe and targeting IRGC-linked money laundering. The actions highlight expanding OFAC authority over crypto exchanges and raise questions about founder liability and jurisdictional reach.
