Many people in the crypto/NFT world have the mistaken belief that transactions involving crypto, NFT and blockchain are somehow anonymous. In fact nothing could be further from the truth, it is comparatively easy to track transactions on the blockchain - because it is public. We talk to Mark Bailey and Joshua Ho from the Crypto Forensics Team at Hall Chadwick as they tell us tales that make an episode of CSI seem boring. Their team spend their days chasing down fraud in the crypto and NFT space. The tasks include verifying assets, finding hidden wallets and tracking crypto transactions in the case of corporate fraud. Their services are also used by self-managed super fund auditors tracing crypto funds and in family law disputes. Hear fascinating stories of how these cyber-sleuths are able to track transactions. We also get an insight into how the Tax Office is being proactive in discovering crypto transactions and chasing under-reporting.
