About this listen

That Billions episode where characters use crypto to hide from the government? Host Sri Misra sits down with Mriganka Pattnaik, CEO of Merkle Science, who explains what they got wrong and what they got right about criminal use of cryptocurrency.

What They Got RIGHT:

• Criminals ARE early adopters of crypto

• Decentralized nature attracts both good and bad actors

• Easier than moving $5M in physical cash across borders

• Criminal activity follows mainstream adoption


What They Got WRONG:

• Everything IS visible on-chain

• On-ramps and off-ramps are monitored

• Sophisticated analytics can trace movements

• It's actually harder to hide than most think
