AI-driven blockchain security firm


AnChain.AI is an American artificial intelligence and blockchain analytics company headquartered in San Francisco, California. Founded by data scientist and cybersecurity researcher Victor Fang, Ph.D., the company develops agentic-AI software for anti-money-laundering (AML), fraud investigation, and compliance monitoring across cryptocurrency, decentralized finance (DeFi), and digital-asset ecosystems. AnChain.AI’s technology has been utilized by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the IRS, and the FinCEN to monitor blockchain transactions and strengthen digital-asset oversight.[1] [2]

Overview

[edit ]

Established in 2018, AnChain.AI applies artificial intelligence and blockchain forensics to financial-crime investigation and compliance automation. Its analytics systems have supported more than US870ドル million in asset seizures and recoveries worldwide and analyzed over one trillion fiat and blockchain transactions.[3] The company’s clients include government agencies, financial institutions, and digital-asset service providers seeking to meet global AML/CFT and FATF compliance standards.

History

[edit ]

AnChain.AI was founded in 2018 by Victor Fang, Ph.D., a cybersecurity researcher and data-science leader previously with Mandiant (later acquired by Google Cloud).[4] Before establishing AnChain.AI, Fang worked in data-science and fraud-detection roles at Amazon Payments, FireEye, and Pivotal Software, where he authored more than twenty-five patents related to AI-based anomaly detection and network-security automation.[5] [6] He earned a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Cincinnati and has served as a guest lecturer at the University of California, Berkeley, teaching data science and entrepreneurship.[7] Under Fang’s leadership, AnChain.AI joined the Berkeley Blockchain Xcelerator in 2019 and expanded internationally, providing blockchain-compliance and investigation solutions to clients in more than thirty countries.[8]

Technology

[edit ]

AnChain.AI’s platforms integrate graph-analysis, byte-code inspection, and large-language-model reasoning in a framework branded as Auto-Trace AI. This engine performs cross-chain tracing across both UTXO-based and smart-contract blockchains, supports sanction-screening and risk-scoring, and automates travel-rule and suspicious-activity reporting.[9] The system is available through modular suites:

  • CISO TM – investigation and case-management platform for compliance teams and regulators
  • SCREEN TM – real-time transaction-monitoring and address-risk engine
  • BEI TM API – blockchain-forensics interface for enterprise integration
  • WEB3SOC TM – Web3 security-operations console

Government and Regulatory Engagement

[edit ]

AnChain.AI gained public attention in 2021 when Forbes reported that the SEC had contracted the firm to help monitor DeFi transactions.[10] Subsequent filings on USAspending.gov and the Federal Procurement Data System document additional contracts with the IRS and FinCEN for blockchain-analytics and data-subscription services.[11] A 2025 memorandum from the SEC’s Crypto Task Force referenced AnChain.AI’s technology in digital-asset analysis.[12] Fox Business later cited the company’s tools in coverage on AI-assisted crypto-crime investigation.[13]

Research and academic collaboration

[edit ]

AnChain.AI has collaborated with academic institutions on blockchain-forensics and AI-ethics research. The National University of Singapore’s FinTech Lab and Kyoto University featured the company in a 2024 symposium on "AI in Financial Services."[14] The Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Technology Review referenced AnChain.AI in reporting on blockchain-security research and the evolution of exploit detection.[15] At the University of California, Berkeley, Data X highlighted AnChain.AI’s analysis of automated-trading bot behavior and associated financial risks.[16]

Recognition

[edit ]

AnChain.AI was named a finalist in the RSA Conference Innovation Sandbox Contest in 2023[17] and was selected for the 2025 FinTech Innovation Lab New York cohort.[18]

Leadership and Advisors

[edit ]

As of 2025, AnChain.AI’s leadership includes founder and chief executive officer Victor Fang, Ph.D., and a board of advisors composed of figures from cybersecurity, government, and venture capital. Advisors include:

  • Scott Walker – former Senior Advisor for Crypto Regulation at the U.S. SEC.
  • Cristóbal Conde – former Chief Executive Officer of SunGard and current board member of Nasdaq.
  • David Lum – General Partner at Andreessen Horowitz–backed fund 256 Ventures and former cybersecurity executive at Arista Networks.
  • Alexis Berman – former investigator at the IRS Criminal Investigation division.

These advisors provide expertise on digital-asset regulation, AML compliance, and enterprise-security operations.
