So 465,000 Iranians support the current regime (20% of 93 million population).

All the others are apparently living in quiet fear after 30 or 40,000 were massacred, some from automatic weapons and rifles from the rooftops onto the streets where they were marching.

A nightmare life. Now they are apparently bartering in place of wildly inflated money.

465,000 is 0.5% of 93,000,000. That’s 1 out of every 200 people.

Actually, it’s 4.6 million who support the regime. But many are merely in it for the money and special privileges. I cannot estimate what percent will fight to death for this regime. But it is a far, far smaller portion.
