Abstract

One of the biggest innovations brought by the digitalized world is undoubtedly the invention of crypto money, which is decentralized, anonymous and complex, and connected to blockchain technology. This relatively new technology has attracted the attention of many people with its revolutionary changes in payment systems and great price movements in the market, as well as the economic balances it has changed around the world. In addition to this interest, it also attracted the attention of crime and crime organizations in a short time, and over time it turned into a tool used by illegal organizations such as laundering the proceeds of crime. Although this structure was initially exposed to the reaction of some states at the level of nation states, on the other hand, it managed to get the support of many states. However, although the spread of blockchain-based money laundering methods is an undeniable problem for all states, a significant cooperation has not been achieved by international collaborations and organizations to prevent this situation. On the other hand, it is of great importance for law enforcement and forensic analysts to clarify this situation and to fight against these structures in order to protect national interests. In this study; In this study, an approach that will detect money laundering is tried to be presented through sample scenarios by bringing a broad perspective to crypto money-based money laundering methods, which are very difficult to trace due to their nature. In addition, it is expected that the difficulties in implementation of the proposed approach will be clearly addressed and will shed light and inspire further study.
