Crypto Archive November 2025: Airdrops, Sanctions, and Blockchain Realities
When you look at the crypto archive for November 2025, a collection of real-world events, failed experiments, and working blockchain applications from that month. Also known as crypto history, it doesn’t show hype—it shows what actually happened when money, tech, and power collided. This isn’t a list of price predictions. It’s a record of how crypto moved in the real world: governments freezing assets, people bypassing bans, tokens disappearing with no warning, and protocols quietly becoming useful.
One of the biggest stories was the US sanctions on Myanmar crypto entities, a crackdown on a $10 billion scam network using forced labor in Shwe Kokko. Also known as OFAC crypto enforcement, this move showed regulators finally targeting crypto not as a financial tool, but as a weapon of human trafficking. Around the same time, Iranians, cut off from global finance by currency collapse, turned to DAI on Polygon and Telegram P2P to keep their savings alive. Also known as crypto resistance, this wasn’t speculation—it was survival. Meanwhile, Russia, facing Western sanctions, built a hidden crypto pipeline using tokens like A7A5 and exchanges like Grinex to move billions. Also known as sanctions evasion, this revealed how crypto’s openness can be exploited by state actors. These aren’t edge cases. They’re the new normal.
What’s Left When the Hype Dies?
November 2025 also buried a few once-promising projects. Monolith’s crypto debit card, which processed $113 million before shutting down, left TKN as a ghost token. ChainCade and Beckos floated with quadrillions of supply and zero utility. GZONE’s airdrop? A scam waiting for the next victim. These aren’t just failures—they’re warnings. Many tokens aren’t investments. They’re attention traps.
But not everything faded. Veno Finance kept growing as a liquid staking tool on Cronos and zkSync. Formal verification became standard for DeFi protocols. Merkle trees and Byzantine Fault Tolerance kept enterprise blockchains running quietly and securely. Bitcoin’s 24,000 nodes still held the network steady. Blockchain wasn’t dead—it was just getting serious.
What you’ll find here isn’t a list of winners or losers. It’s a map. Of who got sanctioned. Who got left behind. Who found a real use case. Who still has a shot. These posts don’t tell you what to buy. They tell you what to watch, what to avoid, and why the rules changed.

Monolith (TKN) was a pioneering crypto debit card that let Europeans spend ETH and other tokens like cash. It shut down in 2025 after processing $113M in transactions. TKN still trades, but has no utility left.
In September 2025, the U.S. sanctioned nine Myanmar-based crypto entities tied to a $10 billion cyber scam network operating in Shwe Kokko. These operations, protected by the Karen National Army, use forced labor to scam Americans. The sanctions freeze assets and block transactions, marking a major escalation in U.S. efforts to shut down crypto-fueled human trafficking rings.
