## Resource

Italy’s central bank is cracking down on crypto, mandating that all transfers be screened for ties to sanctioned parties — a move designed to stop illicit funds from slipping through digital asset cracks. As Russia and Iran increasingly turn to crypto to skirt sanctions — including a Russian-ruble stablecoin handling $110 billion in transactions — regulators worldwide are stepping up. The U.S. recently froze $130 million in Iranian-linked crypto assets, signaling a global tightening grip. Crypto service providers in Italy must now beef up compliance or risk penalties — and expect more scrutiny as authorities race to preserve financial integrity.
