Stanoje Rnić is a Belgrade-based criminal investigator specializing in cybercrime, with a focus on cryptocurrency scams, ransomware, and advanced hacking operations.

Born in Belgrade during the Yugoslav wars, Stanoje developed a passion for computers and gaming at a young age. By the age of 11, he started experimenting with BNC and eggdrop chat bots on IRC, which eventually led him to launch his first business in the gaming industry. Today, Stanoje is the CEO and Head of Investigations at Archibald Intelligence, a agency specializing in cybercrime investigations, and serves as the president of the Archibald Initiative, a digital forensics NGO dedicated to raising awareness and building capacity in digital forensics. He also co-founded the Blockchain Forensics Forum, the first event of its kind in Southeast Europe, and the Digital Forensics Conference, one of Europe’s largest conferences in the field.

He graduated from the University of Criminal Investigation and Police Studies in Belgrade, a top forensic science institution in the Balkans, where he sharpened his investigative skills through internships at the Serbian Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Stanoje is a recipient of the U.S. State Department’s YTILI Fellowship for European leaders in innovation. In 2024, he will spend time in several U.S. cities, deepening his expertise in cybercrime investigations.
