Investigate crimes involving cryptocurrencies and other blockchain technologies

Bitcoin has traditionally been the payment system of choice for criminals trading on the Dark Web. Now, many other blockchain cryptocurrencies are entering the mainstream, as traders are accepting them from low-end investors who put their money into the market. Worse still, the blockchain can even be used to hide information and covert messaging, unknown to most investigators.

Investigating Cryptocurrencies is the first book to help corporate, law enforcement, and other investigators understand the technical concepts and techniques for investigating crimes that utilise the blockchain and related digital currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.

  • Understand blockchain and transaction technologies
  • Set up and run cryptocurrency accounts
  • Build information about specific addresses
  • Access raw data on blockchain ledgers
  • Identify users of cryptocurrencies
  • Extract cryptocurrency data from live and imaged computers
  • Follow the money

With nearly $150 billion in cryptocurrency circulating and $3 billion changing hands daily, crimes committed with or paid for using digital cash are a serious business. Luckily, Investigating Cryptocurrencies Forensics shows you how to detect these crimes and, more importantly, stop them in their tracks.
