Alright, I can't edit my post anymore but I just want to add - I see now that perhaps vigilante wasn't the right word. I was trying to fit it into a Wild West metaphor and hadn't had my coffee yet, the phrasing clearly struck a cord.

I was more just trying to phrase that the blockchain world can feel lawless at times, and Chainalysis is trying to bring some order and justice to it. Maybe that's the antithesis of why Bitcoin and other blockchain technologies took off, but I personally think it's pretty sweet as someone with previous AML experience.
