The dollar’s value has plummeted 44% this year, while the euro also climbed to 2.22 million rials — both moves tightly linked to geopolitical shocks. Air strikes earlier this year briefly eased pressure, but threats of more strikes sent the dollar surging back. A collapsing rial is driving up import costs, squeezing household budgets and deepening economic instability. With inflation already rampant and money supply ballooning, Iran’s currency is under relentless pressure — and renewed naval blockades and tensions are only accelerating the slide, threatening even greater economic hardship.
