About This Webinar
Over the last year, we have seen the tremendous growth of bridges which connect blockchains and allow users to transfer value from one chain to another. Bridges make for quick and often pseduo-anonymous transactions, empowering the interconnected blockchain ecosystem to grow and thrive.

However, bridges - which often store a lot of value - have also become attractive targets for hackers, cybercriminals and nation state actors like North Korea who see an opportunity to steal hundreds of millions of dollars worth of crypto-assets at the speed of the internet.

In this session, TRM's Jennifer Vander Veer, a former F.B.I. Agent specializing in crypto investigations, will be conducting an in-depth discussion of bridges, DeFi exploits, and tracing across blockchains as bad actors develop new techniques to launder funds.
