• Online, Self-Paced

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies offer a relatively fast, inexpensive, and anonymous system of conducting transactions as compared to more traditional financial means. The acceptance of these digital currencies in the mainstream financial system also means that criminals can now easily introduce funds into the legitimate economy with little possibility of identification. Recording these transactions, however, provides law enforcement, investigators, auditors and compliance professionals the ability to track and identify the networks and hubs the currency is flowing through. In this course, you will learn common crimes where cryptocurrrency is involved, peer to peer exchanges and investigation tips.
