“Bitcoin technology helps solve financial crimes”

Former U.S. Attorney General and current partner at Andreessen Horowitz investment company Kathryn Haun believes open blockchains help solve crimes.

Hon called blockchain transactions “digital bread crumbs,” which, one by one, lead to a real criminal. And law enforcement agencies are much more effective at combating crimes committed with bitcoin than monitoring traditional financial flows.

“The government was able to use the same technology to find criminals. Without the blockchain on which Bitcoin is based, we would never be able to catch these people, ”said the former US federal prosecutor.

At the same time, Hon noted that fraudsters using credit cards and international bank accounts are much more difficult to catch. However, some crimes cannot be solved at all if they were committed with the help of cash.

“Sometimes the very first users of new technologies are criminals. The criminal world is always looking for new ways and means of using systems, ”said Katherine Hon.

Partner Andreessen Horowitz also said that the company does not plan to refuse to participate in the Libra project. Last week, several large financial companies decided to reconsider their participation in the project, and PayPal confirmed
complete rejection of it. But Andreessen Horowitz plans to take an active part in the development of stablecoin.

“I think it’s a really dangerous trend and a very dangerous precedent to close the technology before it’s created,” said Katherine Hon.

According to Hon, the lack of regulatory transparency is one of the main reasons that large companies continue to remain aloof from the cryptocurrency industry.
