Original Note:
The US is not paying a ransom. The US has agreed to unfreeze about $6 billion in Iranian oil revenue. Thus the US is allowing Iran to access their own funds. It says this in the article linked, but the post itself is very misleading. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/10/us/politics/iran-us-prisoner-swap.html
