A comment on Iran authorizes use of cryptocurrency for imports payment. Parent comment

What would they use other than IBAN/swift??

Edit; I think your parent comment is confusing concepts. IBAN is international bank account number. You enter an Iban as the target address for your swift transfer. I wasn't aware of a different system that also uses IBAN ... is there one?

IBAN are a European thing.

When you wire money from e.g. Europe to the US, they don't speak IBAN, you have to specify US-centric bank account designations.
