Further, the present invention discloses a comprehensive framework for secure transaction verification, fraud detection, and regulatory compliance in the Bitcoin industry.
BACKGROUND
[0002] In the rapidly evolving landscape of digital finance, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin have emerged as widely accepted forms of decentralized currency, fundamentally transforming financial transactions and asset management. This shift has been driven by the demand for borderless, transparent, and secure financial systems that operate independently of traditional banking institutions. As the popularity of Bitcoin grows, so too does the need for robust security, efficiency, and compliance measures to address increasing challenges related to data privacy, fraud prevention, and regulatory adherence within the cryptocurrency sector. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technologies have shown potential to optimize and secure Bitcoin operations, but current implementations remain limited in effectiveness and adaptability.
[0003] Conventional methods available for securing Bitcoin transactions typically rely on basic cryptographic mechanisms and traditional compliance procedures, which are often ill-equipped to handle the complexities and risks posed by sophisticated cyber threats and evolving regulations. These methods primarily address data encryption and transaction verification, yet lack the predictive capabilities to detect emerging fraud patterns, manage dynamic compliance requirements, and defend against quantum computing threats. Problems arise due to the limited scalability of these methods, their inability to adapt to malicious AI-driven attacks, and the difficulty of protecting privacy without compromising data utility. Additionally, the decentralized nature of Bitcoin introduces unique challenges in monitoring and responding to suspicious activity in real-time.
[0004] Further, the existing systems merely focus on basic transaction validation and rudimentary cybersecurity measures, neglecting the potential of AI and ML to dynamically enhance security and efficiency in Bitcoin networks. They fail to incorporate advanced methods such as quantum-resistant cryptography, AI-powered fraud detection, and privacy-preserving ML models. As a result, there is a need for a system and method to integrate AI-driven security measures, regulatory compliance tools, and scalable ML models within the Bitcoin ecosystem. This invention aims to provide a comprehensive solution that addresses the technical challenges of security, compliance, and operational efficiency in Bitcoin transactions, ensuring a more secure and adaptable framework for future growth.
