Odaily reported that the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) updated its sanctions list targeting the extremist group ISIS-K (Islamic State – Khorasan Province) on July 1, adding 134 cryptocurrency wallet addresses as identifiers, including 131 TRON chain addresses and 3 Monero addresses.

Tether has frozen all assets in the aforementioned 131 TRON addresses. Data shows that since 2023, these wallets have received over $1.4 million and sent out over $880,000.
