Bernhard Haslhofer | Research Profile
I am a faculty member at the Complexity Science Hub Vienna, where I lead the Financial Technologies research group. Additionally, I am also one of the co-founders of Iknaio Cryptoasset Analytics GmbH and a court-certified expert in IT and cryptoasset forensics.
My research focuses on applying computational methods to large-scale network datasets to derive novel insights. Currently, my primary area of interest is cryptoasset analytics, where my team and I use computational methods to investigate the technical and socio-economic aspects of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) ecosystems. Additionally, I am involved in the DesinFact project, where I study network structures and communication patterns in disinformation campaigns across various information channels.
