Ari Redbord

Ari Redbord is the TRM Labs expert interviewed by Stephanie Hughes in Crypto’s big growth on the books and in the shadows about crypto crime, sanctions evasion, stablecoins, and AI-enabled scams. The local source summary spells the surname “Redboard”; this page normalizes the name to TRM Labs’ public spelling, Redbord.

In the episode, Redbord argues that crypto infrastructure is expanding for lawful users and illicit actors at the same time. His core position is targeted enforcement: go after sanctioned entities, scam networks, exchanges, and financial facilitators without treating the whole crypto ecosystem as criminal.
