Chris Lipowicz is the CEO of Elementus, a New York based blockchain intelligence company that helps hedge funds, financial institutions, government agencies, and legal teams interpret what happens on-chain. An enterprise operator with more than 20 years of experience building revenue and operations teams, he came up through real estate and security technology firms including Building Intelligence and Cherre before moving into crypto data. He argues that on-chain activity is public but hard to read without the right tools, and positions Elementus as the layer that turns raw blockchain data into real-time, compliant, risk-aware decisions.
