Building a Career in Blockchain Forensics & Crypto Crime Investigation

Cryptocurrency crime hit $154 billion in 2025. Governments, banks, exchanges, law firms, and intelligence units around the world are scrambling to hire people who can follow the money on a blockchain. The demand is real. The talent pool is tiny.

But most people looking at this field have the same questions. 

• Where do I start? 
• What skills do I actually need? 
• Does my background matter - police, law, finance, tech? 
• What does a crypto crime investigator actually do? 
• And what's the difference between a tool certification and actually knowing how to investigate?

This live session answers all of these questions.

We cover the full landscape:

1. the types of roles that exist across law enforcement, regulatory agencies, VASPs, compliance teams, law firms, and private investigation;
2. what skills are genuinely essential versus nice to have;
3. how the CCI and CCA certifications map to specific career paths; and
4. what the day-to-day work of a crypto crime investigator actually looks like - including a live walkthrough of a real investigation workflow using c4 Lab tools.

If you are a police officer, a lawyer, an AML analyst, a finance professional, a cybersecurity specialist, or a student wondering whether this field is for you, this session is for you.
