Résumé

Cryptomarkets represent a new innovation for illegal goods trafficking, where drugs are predominantly found. After an overview of the features these sites offer, to understand the virtual world in which users operate, a critical analysis of existing criminological studies suggests a forensic support to better understand how to relate this world essentially described by its virtual data, to reality. A descriptive analysis of Canadian market data is performed to depict an overall picture of drug sales and to explore a strategy targeting the most active sellers. Finally, the use of drug profiling as a way to obtain objective empirical data is discussed, as a means of offsetting uncertainty about virtual data. This article is part of a process of connection-making between criminal sciences, criminology, and forensic science, not limited to the criminalization of prohibited practices, but also to the understanding of phenomena and criminal networks for the purpose of developing efficient strategies for monitoring and neutralizing such threats. © 2016 Canadian Society of Forensic Science.
