Iran has passed a new law that allows regulations on trade transactions with crypto. The act authorizes the use of crypto to finance imports from abroad, according to the Iranian private news agency, Tasnimnews<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The changes in the payment mechanism were made through an agreement between the Ministry of Industry and the Central Bank of Iran. With the new law, businesses will be able to import cars and other items using crypto instead of USD and Euro.<\/p>\n
