The cryptocurrency investigations course from blockchain intelligence group was extremely informative and enlightening. It helped me to connect the dots in how cryptocurrency can potentially move around, how to follow the money and build an investigation.

From crypto newbie to 7 figure crypto investor

In march of 2017, I made my first investment in cryptocurrency. I invested a large
portion of my assets into crypto. Since then, I’ve multiplied my personal portfolio as
much as 41X! (YES, FORTY ONE TIMES!)
and it wasn’t by luck or chance that I made such OUTRAGEOUS returns on my
investments. You see, from my previous business dealings I had made some incredible
connections that I was able to leverage. These connections enabled me to meet (and be
advised by) some of the top bitcoin and crypto multi-millionaire investors in the world.

IMAGINE if you could go back in time and invest in google, facebook or apple before they went public…

Imagine how wealthy you could be with just a modest investment in any one of those
companies. You probably wouldn’t have much to worry about. Unfortunately, you can’t
turn back time…

But with the right information, you can have another chance.

“you don’t have to start out knowing anything about cryptocurrency or how to make
investment trades. A year and a half ago I literally knew NOTHING about this stuff.
Now I’m a 7-figure crypto-investor…and I appear in front of thousands of people
(all around the world) as an ambassador of cryptocurrency teaching them
how to grow their investment portfolios!” -crypto colin

Cryptocurrencies and anti-money laundering training

Learn to prevent, detect and investigate the use of virtual assets for illicit activities

The basel institute on governance is offering a four-day training course on the fundamentals of cryptocurrencies, financial crime and anti-money laundering (AML) compliance.

Delivered virtually over four 3-hour sessions, the course aims to help practitioners from a wide range of law enforcement, financial and business sectors prevent, detect and investigate the use of cryptocurrencies for illicit activities.

Policymakers, regulators and investigative journalists will also benefit from the comprehensive introduction to virtual assets and blockchain analysis, due diligence and risk management, including the implications of EU anti-money laundering directives (amlds) and ultimate beneficial ownership (UBO) requirements.

The workshop centres around a practical money laundering case scenario, in which participants will investigate the “cleaning” of stolen assets for integration into the financial system by tracing transactions through the blockchain.

The course draws on the popular money laundering using cryptocurrency training programme of the basel institute’s international centre of the asset recovery, which is offered exclusively to government agencies in partner countries.

Re: comments to the financial crimes enforcement network on requirements for certain transactions involving convertible virtual currency or digital assets

Fincen docket no. FINCEN-2020-0020, RIN 1506-AB47

DCI director, neha narula and patrick murck (@virtuallylaw) submitted this comment on fincen's latest proposed rule. They explain this might limit policy choices for a future digital dollar, reduce market competition, and most importantly, that's not how addresses actually work.

A new report from MIT, however, strongly argues against the idea of blockchain-based e-voting, largely on the basis that it will increase cybersecurity vulnerabilities that already exist, it fails meet the unique needs of voting in political elections and it adds more issues than it fixes.

By hannah lang november 4, 2020 9:30 PM

In american banker’s weekly podcast “bank shot”, neha narula was interviewed by hannah lang on central bank digital currency (CBDC).

A federal reserve-issued digital dollar could speed up payments, expand financial access and reduce financial crime. But it also brings trade-offs that policymakers are only just beginning to consider.

There are many models for “money”--account based models and tokenized money dominate many conversations, but other pathways are breaking new ground as well, including new emoney solutions and conceptions of money as an infrastructure or platform that could support new financial applications and innovations. We talk on this panel about what’s likely--and possible.

The keynote will be followed by an expert panel discussion to address key issues including:

The link between digital currency, cross-border payments infrastructure, and currency usage in the international financial and monetary systems.

Technology that supports digital currency and how it can meet the design requirements, specifically of central bank digital currency.

Opportunities and risks presented by digital currency to commercial banks and established payments providers.

By 2020, bitcoin has been seen as a decentralized alternative to existing fiat currencies such as the US dollar ( USD) (usually backed by some central government).

It is not only important to know how the technological infrastructure works but also how digital assets derive their value and how global events could impact the prices of leading cryptocurrency tokens. Therefore, the certification would require a significant commitment on the learner’s part to cover the course material in-depth and iron out any queries they might get from the same. For individuals with no prior exposure to blockchains and cryptocurrencies, this course offers a chance to get to a mastery of the subject provided the individual invests time to learn these concepts properly.
