According to the two firms, the integration will bring one-click access to DeFi to over 100 million active users of Telegram’s wallet. The partnership will start with USDT yield, which will be enabled through the TON Wallet “Earn” feature. According to it, users can earn up to 3.5% yield on their USDT holdings.

Telegram hopes to become Web3 super app

According to Justin Hyun, Co-CEO of the TON-based (TON) Affluent, the move is a milestone toward the goal of making Telegram a Web3 super app. This is a type of application with multiple use cases, including messaging, social media, and payments.

The Telegram messaging app has 800 million monthly active users, and its wallet has 100 million users. This makes it potentially one of the most significant sources of new DeFi users. The company plans to onboard 30% of its user base to the wallet by 2028.

OFAC Designates Two Iranian Finance Facilitators For Crypto Shadow Banking

The Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctioned two Iranian financial facilitators for coordinating over $100 million worth of cryptocurrency in oil sales for the Iranian government, a September 16 press release shows. OFAC Sanctions Iranian Nationals According to the Tuesday press release, Iranian nationals Alireza Derakhshan and Arash Estaki Alivand “used a network of front companies in multiple foreign jurisdictions” to transfer the digital assets. OFAC alleges that Alivand and Derakhshan’s transfers also involved the sale of Iranian oil that benefited Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Qods Force (IRGC-QF) and the Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics (MODAFL). IRGC-QF and MODAFL then used the proceeds to support regional proxy terrorist organizations and strengthen their advanced weapons systems, including ballistic missiles.

Hurley. “Under President Trump’s leadership, we will continue to disrupt these key financial streams that fund Iran’s weapons programs and malign activities in the Middle East and beyond,” he continued. Dozens Designated In Shadow Banking Scandal Both Alivand and Derakhshan have been designated “for having materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or services to or in support of the IRGC-QF.” In addition to Alivand and Derakhshan, OFAC has sanctioned more than a dozen Hong Kong and United Arab Emirates-based entities and individuals tied to the network. According to the press release, the sanctioned entities may face civil or criminal penalties imposed as a result
