We are proud to have hosted our Men's Mental Wellness Conference this past weekend, which marked the end of June Men's Mental Health Awareness Month. It was an inspiring and enlightening event focused on promoting mental health awareness and support for men in our workplace. We were honored to welcome two exceptional speakers: Dr. Paul, renowned author of "Fathers Make the Difference," "Men Cry," "What Eats Families," "Parenting Without Stress," among other books, shared valuable insights on emotional intelligence and the importance of vulnerability. Mr. Njau, who delivered a powerful talk on breaking stigmas and fostering a supportive environment for men's mental health. Some of the Key Lessons Learned: 1. It is okay not to be okay and seek help. 2. The role of mentors and father figures in the life of a boy child. 3. How to forgive the younger self and address childhood traumas. 4. If you cannot change your ancestors, change your descendants. 5. How to manage finances and thrive in relationships. The discussions were open, honest, and transformative. We're committed to continuing this important conversation and implementing actionable strategies to support our team's well-being. A big thank you to all who attended and contributed to this meaningful event. Together, we're breaking down barriers and building a healthier, more supportive community. Thinking about a career change? We believe thriving shouldn't stop at work.

The recent arrest of the mastermind behind the now-defunct Incognito Market, Rui-Sian Lin, provides a compelling case study into the methodologies employed by authorities to unveil illicit crypto activities in the shadows of the internet. Key Takeaways: 1. Blockchain Analysis: Through meticulous scrutiny of blockchain transactions, law enforcement pieced together the puzzle of Lin's digital footprint. Tracking the flow of funds between Bitcoin and Monero, authorities gained critical insights into his operations. 2. OSINT (Open-Source Intelligence): Lin's online presence, including forum engagements and social media activity, served as breadcrumbs for investigators. By leveraging OSINT techniques, law enforcement unearthed connections and uncovered critical leads. 3. KYC (Know Your Customer) Compliance: Lin's compliance slip-ups proved costly. From utilizing swap services that requested KYC information to purchasing domains tied to darknet activities, his trail of KYC data became a pivotal tool for authorities in mapping his digital identity. 4. Transaction Correlation: This played a crucial role in tracing crypto transactions. By correlating swaps from Lin's Bitcoin wallet with subsequent Monero deposits on KYC exchanges, law enforcement established a damning timeline of his activities. https://lnkd.in/e47e6RyE
