Blockchain and Cryptocurrency expertise

A diverse group of researchers at FIIT is working on a range of Blockchain academic and industry-driven research projects in a means to push further the technical development and innovation of the endless applications of Blockchain.

Current research projects include: connection to IoT platforms and it's usability, distributed systems, data mining and machine learning, large-language models, anti-money laundering techniques, scalability and resiliency, smart contracts, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), blockchains interoperability, voting and election systems based on blockchain, privacy and security in blockchains and cryptocurrencies, asset sharing blockchain platforms, zero-knowledge proof projects, decentralized finances (DeFi), and applications of blockchain into normal life.

Moreover, our research endeavors extend to RegTech, where we explore advanced Anti-Money Laundering techniques. These efforts encompass adverse media screening, political exposed persons (PEPs) identification, Ultimate Beneficial Owners (UBOs) tracing, and other compliance-related aspects. Our vision as a group lays in approaching the Internet of Value in a horizon of 5 to 10 years and further empowering blockchain technology usage in society, especially within the Web3, while simultaneously contributing to the development of regulatory and financial technology solutions to enhance security and transparency.
