Cross-border payment methods, such as cryptocurrencies, allow individuals to transfer money internationally, often bypassing traditional banking systems. The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctions countries for various political and security reasons, restricting financial transactions with these nations. Proponents argue that such a ban prevents financial support to regimes considered hostile or dangerous, ensuring compliance with international sanctions and national security policies. Opponents argue that it restricts humanitarian aid to families in need, infringes on personal freedoms, and that cryptocurrencies can provide a lifeline in crisis situations.

I belive people should have the right to send money to whoever they want as that is the right of every individual
@B285GGX1wk1W
35 percent should kept by the government and if it is a high risk country there sending it to it should be 60 percent
@9ZWFB361mo1MO
Absolutely not. These countries' general citizens have nothing to do with the conflicts. Most people in all of those places are good people, so as long as it is known that it is going to positive places and not specifically funding their government, there should be no banning in the slightest
@9ZWC9N71mo1MO
No but have very strict regulations in place regarding the transfer of money to these regions ie the national identity of the recipient, the rationale for sending, limits on amount that can be sent (to take into account countries like Palestine)
@9ZVGBNT1mo1MO
If people want to do it keep it strongly regulated to avoid money laundering. If proven impossible it should be banned
@9ZV4XJQ1mo1MO
If they earn their money by working they should be allowed do as they please but if taking government money to send home should be stopped
@9ZTQJLX1mo1MO
Large or suspiciously frequent transactions should be flagged and investigated to ensure that payments or not going towards the funding of criminal activity but smaller sums or transactions confirmed to be towards humanitarian aid should not be restricted
@9ZT3FBC1mo1MO
Not ban, but regulate. Reasonable amounts set from person to person should be allowed, for example if used to provide humanitarian aid, but large amounts between organisations, etc for possible criminal activity etc. should be prevented.
