Tehran Stock Exchange Company said it has received a verdict from the courts regarding the illegal possession and operation of 82 illegal cryptocurrency mining machines worth 25 billion rials ($61,000).
The TSE's trading symbol, which is the company responsible for the miners, has been halted, Ecoiran reported.
The illegal possession and operation of the 82 miners was discovered by the Economic Security Police after the goods were confiscated from the TSE's building.
The investigation revealed that the equipment was bought using the company's financial resources. However, the company failed to provide any evidence in support of its case, claiming that the goods were legally imported and all duties and taxes had been paid.
