Chainalysis, a cryptocurrency and blockchain auditing firm, has announced a $170 million funding round led by GIC, the Government of Singapore Investment Corporation.

The investment complements other blockchain-related investments made by GIC, which was also involved in the previous Series E round and has invested in Anchorage and the BC Group. Chainalysis co-founder and CEO Michael Gronager stated on the subject:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
