About Chainalysis

 

Chanalysis emerged in 2014 after Michael Gronager, former COO of popular crypto exchange Kraken and nascent co-founder of Chainalysis launched the platform to aid the investigation of the Mt. Gox crypto exchange’s heist, which saw 850,000 bitcoin stolen from its platform. 

 

Chainalysis was founded in 2014 after Michael Gronager, then COO at cryptocurrency exchange Kraken, decided there should be a tool to make it easier to follow the money while aiding officials during an investigation of the Mt. Gox crypto exchange.

 

“Application builders and service providers will have access to the most advanced tools and services. The Chainalysis data platform is one of these essential foundations,” said Cronos’ managing director Ken Timsit, explaining the partnership as its latest compliance enhancement milestone and institutional adoption of the Cronos blockchains and digital assets.
