IEEPA Limits

Definition

IEEPA Limits refer to the restrictions and scope of authority granted under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, a United States federal law. This act empowers the President to regulate international commerce during a national emergency, including imposing sanctions and controlling assets. In the context of digital assets, IEEPA limits define the boundaries within which the U.S. government can legally intervene in cryptocurrency transactions or seize related assets. Understanding these limits is crucial for assessing regulatory risk.
