Huge Success Coming Up For the Crypto Startup, Elliptic

For a startup company, it is an unimaginable success that made headlines. Elliptic, a Crypto startup platform which is based in London, sells blockchain analytic tools to some of the big names in the Cryptocurrency platforms. It primarily deals with issues like terrorist funding, child pornography, and illicit drugs rackets. While doing so, it sensed something unusual going on in the stock markets and was all set to combat this cryptocurrency issue. This incident shows how robust the crypto technology of the Company can be in the coming future when it can succeed in combating issues like this in its budding phase itself.

According to James Smith, the CEO, and co-founder of Elliptic, the corporate was able to gauge that some Bitcoin laundering was taking place in the Stock Market, but due to lack of proof Elliptic could not find the actual masterminds in the case. It had long warned the customers about this unusual happening taking place in the stock market. He said in one event that took place in the New York City that they were able to gauge that the funds were being exchanged for terrorist activities and they had already spotted then and successfully withheld its further progressions.

The news made headlines when Elliptic found out that a terrorist organization called Al-Qassam Brigades, which is also the military wing of Hamas, was illegally raising Bitcoins through a donation website opened to receive donations from each customer whoever visited their website. As they were using different addresses for different customers, it took a considerable amount of time for the Crypto startup company to find out the Bitcoin laundering masterminds.

On Wednesday, the agency made the final announcement over a telephonic interview with CNBC that it had managed to raise an amount of $23 million from a funding spherical, which was led by one of the SBI Holdings of Japan, which was all set to make a belligerent expansion into the Asian subcontinents. Previously, SBI had also made headlines for service spinning from Softbank which came into the forefront due to partnerships with Ripple and R3 like blockchain Companies.
