BlockchainUnmasked joins U.S. Government-led partnership to fight illicit activity in crypto

BlockchainUnmasked is committed to fighting illicit activity within crypto. This partnership is the latest step towards BlockchainUnmasked’s vision of a safer, more transparent ecosystem.

Today we’re delighted to announce our membership of the Illicit Virtual Asset Notification (IVAN) Public-Private Partnership. 

IVAN brings together governments, Law Enforcement agencies, and industry partners from around the world to identify and work against emerging threats. BlockchainUnmasked joins this US government partnership, a first-of-its-kind channel for members to share information related to illicit use of virtual assets, disrupting digital crime. It’s designed to enhance global financial security by tackling illicit activity head on. 

“By collaborating with Law Enforcement and public-sector stakeholders, we are actively working toward a safer, more secure crypto space,” said David Richards, CEO of BlockchainUnmasked. “We’re proud to join IVAN and bring real-world investigative tools and forensic intelligence into a platform designed to build trust, enable victim recovery, and disrupt illicit finance.”

We’re committed to fighting crime and driven to make the crypto space safer and more transparent. To date, we’ve assisted more than 16,000 victims of crypto crime. We know the real impact it has on everyday investors. We’ve supported over 20 federal investigations of over $1.4 billion in crypto assets. This experience has given us unique knowledge of precisely what Law Enforcement needs to close cases and bring criminals to justice. 

In the relentless fight against crypto crime, individual efforts fall short. The solution lies in effective cooperation, where companies join forces and stand shoulder to shoulder with Law Enforcement. This IVAN PPP membership is the latest step towards our vision of a safer ecosystem. Other members include industry leaders like Circle and Binance.
