From Celsius Crash to Crypto Compliance: Snir Levi on Building Nominis and Blockchain Intelligence

Snir Levi is the founder and CEO of Nominis — a crypto compliance and blockchain intelligence platform competing with the likes of Chainalysis, Elliptic, and TRM Labs, but built with a fundamentally different approach. Before founding Nominis, Snir worked inside Celsius Network during its peak and collapse — and that experience shaped everything he built after. We get into the Celsius implosion from the inside, what it's like to pivot from CTO to CEO, how Nominis is uncovering IRGC crypto activity and sanction evasion in real time, and why stablecoins are quietly on track to overtake Bitcoin's market cap. ---------------------------------------- 🔒 This episode is sponsored by FirstRead — the AI-powered legal contract assistant built for lawyers who bill by the hour but review contracts by the page.
