Chainalysis data has helped solve some of the world’s highest-profile criminal cases and made it safer for people everywhere to access crypto. The Global Intelligence Team produces the attribution at the heart of that data — connecting on‑chain activity to the real‑world entities behind it, across the global crypto ecosystem.
