How do $400 million in tainted crypto flows pass through the world’s biggest exchanges after they plead guilty to money laundering?

In this episode, Jamahal and Charlie dig into the ICIJ’s latest investigation — and then go one step further. Beyond the scandal, there’s a breakthrough everyone missed:

Treat crypto wallets like bank accounts.

Once you do that, blockchain crime becomes visible.

We break down:

• Why mixers and chain-hopping leave detectable fingerprints

• How multi-hop network analysis exposes hidden laundering paths

• Why big exchanges won’t fix the problem — and why smaller institutions must

• How regional banks, remittance companies, and fintechs can finally see the crypto side of risk

• The chokepoint where every laundering flow must pass: the cash-out moment

If you work in compliance, fintech, crypto, or financial crime this episode helps you understand what’s really happening behind the headlines, and how institutions can genuinely stop it.

Because the blockchain never forgets — even when the industry pretends to.
