Flaying out the Blockchain Ledger for Fun, Profit, and Hip Hop - Andrew Morris (BSides Augusta 2016) (Hacking Illustrated Series InfoSec Tutorial Videos)

Flaying out the Blockchain Ledger for Fun, Profit, and Hip Hop
Andrew Morris

If somebody tweets about having $15 million dollars worth of Bitcoin stolen, how hard would it be to figure out if they were lying? In this talk, I will discuss parsing the Bitcoin blockchain ledger and putting the data into a more searchable and easily-analyzed database, correlating social media posts with transaction timestamps and historical exchange rates, and other interesting observations and use-cases. Finally, I will release the code to allow others to ask questions more easily of the blockchain ledger and discuss future plans.

Andrew Morris works on the Research and Development team at Endgame, specializing in developing cutting-edge security technologies and researching advanced adversary techniques. Prior to Endgame, Andrew spent several years consulting to various Fortune 100 companies, government agencies, and military customers providing red team support, penetration testing, and adversary emulation services.
