TechFlow News, May 18: According to a CoinDesk report, Simone Maini, CEO of blockchain analytics firm Elliptic, stated that the greatest emerging risk to crypto security is not larger-scale hacking attacks, but rather AI-driven financial activity operating at speeds and scales beyond the capacity of human compliance teams to keep up. As AI lowers the barriers to hacking, scams, and fraud, security firms like Elliptic are responding by deploying AI agents to analyze on-chain data in real time—sparking an automated arms race between attackers and defenders. Maini noted that current compliance systems remain heavily reliant on manual review, while the global pool of compliance analysts specializing in digital assets is fundamentally insufficient to meet future demand. Elliptic has secured $120 million in funding, with investors including Nasdaq and Deutsche Bank, to build an “agent-based compliance system” that automates transaction monitoring and investigation processes using AI, thereby reducing the cost per alert and per investigation.
