Asset Reality Check: Aidan Larkin with Scott Hartley

Aidan Larkin is the co-founder and CEO of Asset Reality, the first end-to-end solution for complex asset recovery. Aidan was a former criminal tax inspector for HM Revenue & Customs in the UK and the world's first seized crypto auctioneer. He was featured in The Economists film ‘Tracking the Traffickers’ and BBC One’s ‘Ill Gotten Gains’ series. 

This episode is hosted by Scott Hartley, co-founder and general partner of Everywhere Ventures (previously The Fund).  In this interview, Scott and Aidan discuss the art and science of recovering digital assets. Discover how the IRS has recovered more in digital assets than the entire US law enforcement effort, and how a single Bitcoin seizure by the Metropolitan Police in London was worth more than the entire country’s known digital assets! Listen for the factors making it conducive for a country to adopt new forms of payment and also be more susceptible to asset scams. Plus a few tidbits about Aidan’s background that makes him well-suited to his endeavor.
