Abstract(s)
O fenómeno das criptomoedas tem vindo ao longo dos últimos anos a vincar a sua
presença nas sociedades. O desenvolvimento da tecnologia blockchain foi um fator
determinante para a criação da bitcoin e demais criptomoedas. A aplicabilidade dos
sistemas blockchain são múltiplos e transversais a vários sectores, com potencial disruptivo
dos mais variados sistemas e processos tradicionais das sociedades. Um pouco por todo o
mundo, pondera-se a inclusão da tecnologia blockchain nos sistemas financeiros e criação
de moedas digitais de banco central, de modo a responder a uma crescente procura por
formas digitais de transferência de ativos instantâneas. Os indivíduos e organizações
criminosas encontraram nas moedas virtuais, uma nova solução tecnológica para
movimentar valor, constituindo-se como uma mais-valia na sua atividade criminal. A
cibercriminalidade associada à utilização de criptomoeda cria maiores desafios às
autoridades policiais que procedem à investigação desses crimes, sendo necessário
capacitar as polícias para combater eficientemente esta realidade criminal.
