Before launching BlockScout Research, Comer built and operated one of the largest Bitcoin mining operations in the United States—giving him a rare, inside understanding of digital infrastructure, blockchain activity, and how illicit financial networks operate beneath the surface.

Today, his company works at the front lines of digital investigation—analyzing hidden financial flows, encrypted communications, and dark web marketplaces tied to human trafficking, organized crime, and other underground economies.

What he uncovers is both powerful—and deeply concerning.

While his work has helped law enforcement agencies globally intervene before crimes fully develop, the response within the United States has been mixed. At both the local and federal levels, there are barriers, hesitation, and missed opportunities—despite the fact that the intelligence is actionable and often time-sensitive.

In contrast, agencies in other countries have been far more receptive—actively using this data to disrupt criminal operations and protect victims.

At the local level, sheriffs and law enforcement officials who do engage with this intelligence have a real opportunity to act early—to stop human trafficking networks before financing is fully established and, in many cases, to locate and rescue victims—often children—from unimaginable situations.

This is a critical conversation about what’s possible right now—and what’s being left on the table.
