TESTIMONIALS

I first met Scott a few years ago when he was working for Crystal Intelligence, and I also had the opportunity to attend one of his courses. I was truly impressed by his technical expertise and his approachable, professional demeanor.  Beyond that, we had the chance to collaborate on a case that was later covered by BTC Echo, the largest German-language magazine specializing in cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.  It makes me all the more pleased that, after these milestones, our collaboration continues, and together, we remain committed to fighting crypto fraud.
