Blockchain crypto investigation: Lessons with Julie P1 - Arkhan

In this video, we break down a real Ethereum tracing case using a complaint filed with the California DFPI. Julie, an experienced blockchain investigator, walks through a practical step-by-step demonstration on how stolen USDT moves across wallets—and how investigators identify the key moments where funds may be cashed out or used to deceive new victims. If you're working in AML, sanctions, crypto compliance, or simply want to understand how blockchain forensics works in practice, this session is a clear, accessible introduction to the investigative process. 🚀 Want to work in AML, Compliance or Financial Crime Prevention?
