Iran to require ships passing through Strait of Hormuz to pay tolls in BITCOIN!!
| It was reported this morning that Iran will require all ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz to pay tolls in Bitcoin!!! Reporters are noting that the toll will be about $1 per barrel and that tankers must email cargo details to Iranian authorities ahead of time. Each oil tanker typically carries 1-2 MILLION barrels, meaning that Iran would earn $1-2 million per oil tanker. At roughly 70 oil tankers per day, that means Iran will eanr $70-$140 MILLION in bitcoin every day. Bitcoin is up 4% today, sitting at $71,000 [link] [comments] |
