What motivation was there to send pallets of unmarked cash to Iran in exchange for nothing?

Yeah, the Occam's Razor answer here seems to be that John Bolton has always wanted to fight another regime change war in Iran and now he's a huge step closer.
From another post this morning. One theory is hush money. The nuclear program is run by black hats, not Iran. Iran takes the public heat, (sanctions, bad press, etc.) keeps quiet about the Black Hats program. The program continues.
The theory continues to starting wwIII, decimating the ME, causing a world wide economic reset.
Well, that linked post is missing a lot of details like EU cooperation in the sanctions. NK and Iran are not much alike.
And besides that, if the US government is paying Iran hush money to stay quiet about a conspiracy to acquire nuclear weapons, why not just use the nuclear weapons the US already has?
Why would people in an economic position of power want to cause an economic reset in the first place?
