The feds are using novel surveillance tools to track criminal activity on the blockchain. Eventually, they're going to use the same tools against all of us.

The book is a fun read as a true crime novel. It’s also a useful teaching tool for operational security on the web, particularly for new crypto users. The growth in crypto usage in the last two years has been exponential, facilitated via new wallets like MetaMask that became available on phones two years ago.

As one example, thousands of people whose crypto was stolen by Sam Bankman-Fried will soon learn one injustice of the tax code in that theft is not deductible against capital gains. If victim information is leaked in the FTX bankruptcy, the Internal Revenue Service will likely use that information to go after bankrupt victims of the fraud to recover capital gains taxes owed on their paper gains. Chainalysis’ tracing technology will help them do it.

The book is more sophisticated than the flashy title would suggest. Crypto-native readers will be relieved that the author takes care to explore a second, more nuanced dimension of crypto surveillance technology. He presents the views of privacy and Bitcoin advocates such as Matthew Green, one of the founders of Zcash , and Bitcoin proponent Alex Gladstein.

The book dedicates multiple chapters to the diligent work of crypto privacy scholar Sarah Meiklejohn. Her early work developing clustering techniques to trace Bitcoin transactions helped found a thread of crypto forensic and privacy scholarship.
