Blockchain tech group Bitfury, founded in 2011 as a Bitcoin mining company, has launched a software stack called Crystal that is designed to help fight crimes involving Bitcoin, according to a press release issued Tuesday, Jan. 30.
Crystal will allow users to detect and examine criminal activity that takes place on the Bitcoin Blockchain and avoid interacting with coins that are associated with illegal transactions.
Crystal’s free demo version is available for individuals starting Jan. 30, while a full version for corporate clients will begin shipping in March 2018.
According to Bitfury, it took about two years to develop Crystal. The company set out in 2015 with the idea to provide a tool that would help financial and government institutions fight against criminal activity committed with Bitcoin.
