Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the US could seize roughly $1 billion in Iranian crypto assets as early as this week. Coming days after the sequence of statements that moved oil and Bitcoin around midweek, it is a reminder that the Iran file now has a direct crypto channel rather than only a macro one. A seizure of that size would be among the larger state actions against crypto holdings, and the market question is not the dollar figure but what happens to the coins afterward, since seized assets eventually reach the market or sit on a government balance sheet. Separately, Thailand issued 11 new requirements limiting initial crypto ETFs to Bitcoin and Ethereum, effective October 16.
