Iran aims to bring new regulations

The authorities plan to introduce new regulations “to increase the penalties for illegal cryptocurrency mining using subsidized electricity” as per Tehran Times. The new regulations that are being planned include raising the current fine by a minimum of three and a maximum of five times. Furthermore, the authorities in Iran also plan to revoke the licenses of offenders and also, put them behind bars. 
“Any use of subsidized electricity, intended for households, industrial, agricultural and commercial subscribers, for mining cryptocurrency is prohibited,” revealed the report. 
This comes just months after the Iran government decided to lift the ban on cryptocurrency mining. The government of the nation under the former president Hassan Rouhani had decided to ban crypto mining activities in May 2021. However, following the upliftment of the ban, the nation saw a surge in mining activities which resulted in power outages in the nation. 

The global landscape for crypto mining

As per Cryptonary’s previous coverage, crypto mining has been a controversial topic recently. Lawyer and economist María Muñoz, who is also the Deputy for the Spanish Ciudadanos political party, proposed a bill with the intention to make Spain a Bitcoin mining hub. On the other hand, the European Union decided to put a blanket ban on mining of Proof-of-Work (PoW) cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin which failed to follow through. 

Not only in Iran but crypto miners have seen increased pressure from regulatory authorities recently mainly due to their energy requirements. As per a previous report from Cryptonary, Tenaga Nasional Bhd, a Malaysian electricity firm, has noted an increase in illegal cryptocurrency mining since 2018 in the nation and made two proposals to curb the practice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

Why is there no trial or refund policy?

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

How often is content updated?

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
