Summary

Hidden Crypto Markets explores the shadowy world where cryptocurrency fuels illicit activities, venturing into unregulated exchanges and dark web marketplaces. It highlights how the initial promise of decentralization and anonymity in digital currency inadvertently created opportunities for financial crime, examining how billions in crypto vanish and resurface in illegal operations. For example, transaction obfuscation methods and privacy coins are detailed, revealing how criminals attempt to mask the origins of their funds. This book uniquely dissects the structure of illicit crypto markets, detailing methods like mixers, tumblers, and chain hopping used to obscure funds. It presents real-world case studies and employs blockchain analytics to trace the flow of funds, offering a fact-based analysis of how these markets operate beyond traditional financial regulations.

 
The narrative progresses from the history of cryptocurrency and the rise of crypto crime to the investigative techniques used by law enforcement and the ongoing debates surrounding cryptocurrency regulation. Ultimately, Hidden Crypto Markets investigates efforts to combat crypto crime, analyzing the effectiveness of current regulations and proposing improvements. It emphasizes the need for technological solutions, regulatory oversight, and international cooperation to tackle the challenges posed by unregulated exchanges and illicit crypto markets. By using government reports, academic research, and expert interviews, the book connects criminology, cybersecurity, and international finance to provide a holistic understanding of this complex issue.

    Innocent young women, a sadistic serial killing duo and … the true story as revealed by the lead detective. 
     
    Australia’s most prolific serial sexual killers met in prison. They were a complete contrast: Christopher Worrell, the charismatic psychopathic youngster; and James Miller, the older and socially awkward loner. For Miller, it was love at first sight. They developed an ominous sexual bond – proving that opposites can attract – and then kill. 
     
    Once free, the inseparable tag team slayed as many people as notorious Australian serial killer Ivan Milat. Whereas Milat took a year to murder seven victims, the duo achieved the same in seven short weeks … the last four killed in only six days. 
    The frenzied carnage only stopped when Worrell died in a car accident. So ended the life of Australia’s own BTK. Like America’s Dennis Radar, Worrell bound, tortured and killed – because he could. 
     
    Revealed for the first time is the full account of the victims, the serial killers and the lead detective, a relentless investigator who broke the silence of the surviving murderer, the only person who knew the full truth … But was Miller’s truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth?

    John Massey's story is unique. Part of a notorious duo that the Flying Squad dubbed 'Laurel and Hardy', his criminal activities included hijacking a police car after robbing a bank of £25,000 and relieving the Sunday Mirror of £50,000 – and all before he was arrested for murder, aged 27.
    But that was just the beginning. Given a life sentence, with a minimum term of twenty years, Massey would find himself incarcerated for forty-three years, give or take a prison break, in almost every prison in the country. In Locks, Bolts and Bars, one of Britain's longest-serving prisoners reflects on a life spent on the 'inside', from corrupt guards to notorious criminals, and the real value of freedom.
