Blockchain Investigations & Asset Tracing

Blockchain investigations and asset tracing for insurers, investment funds, legal teams and recovery specialists.
Understand where the money went, what the evidence supports and which recovery options merit further action.
A confidential first conversation. NDA available before sharing sensitive material. No promise of recovery before the facts are assessed.

Priority clients & partners

Your case. Our blockchain expertise.

We support the team already responsible for the claim, dispute or recovery—with a focused investigation of the crypto-asset trail.

Insurance companies & claims specialists

Investigate crypto-related losses, assess the circumstances of a claim, trace stolen assets, and support recovery after a payout.

Litigation funders

Assess whether identifiable assets exist before funding a case, investigate asset movements, and support enforcement and recovery.

Investment funds & distressed-debt investors

Investigate suspected fraud, trace diverted funds, identify concealed assets, and assess recovery prospects.

Asset tracing & judgment enforcement firms

Provide blockchain expertise in major debtor disputes, especially where assets may have moved from traditional finance into crypto.

Law firms handling major commercial disputes

Support fraud litigation, arbitration, shareholder disputes, and enforcement with documented crypto asset tracing.

Insolvency practitioners & restructuring advisers

Investigate pre-insolvency transfers, related-party transactions, and potentially undisclosed crypto holdings.

Cybersecurity & incident-response firms

Complement technical containment with tracing of ransom payments and stolen assets, and evidence for the client’s next steps.

When the crypto trail matters

Start with the question your case needs answered.

The starting point may be a payment, a document or a known wallet—not a complete map. We first establish what can be tested against available evidence.

Where did the investment go?

Test suspected diversion of funds and trace movements beyond the stated investment purpose.

Does the debtor hold crypto assets?

Investigate indications that value moved into digital assets or through connected addresses.

What happened before insolvency?

Reconstruct transaction timing and assess potentially relevant transfers and counterparties.

What supports the insurance claim?

Document the on-chain loss, subsequent movements and evidence relevant to the claim review.

Is a recovery action worth pursuing?

Assess the visible asset trail and its limitations before additional funding or enforcement work.

Where did the ransom payment go?

Follow digital-asset payments beyond the technical incident, alongside the security provider.

These are illustrative scenarios, not reported case outcomes. A failed investment is not, by itself, evidence of fraud.

The investigation map

Connect the transaction trail to the wider case.

We combine the material you can lawfully share with on-chain analysis. The result is a traceable explanation—not just a collection of wallet screenshots.

  1. Establish the starting point

    Review the mandate, documents, transaction records and known addresses.

  2. Reconstruct the movement

    Follow transfers, conversions and cross-chain paths where the evidence permits.

  3. Assess the connections

    Examine linked addresses, destination services and the basis for attribution.

  4. Support the next decision

    Deliver documented findings for claim assessment, counsel, funding or enforcement.

A blockchain transaction shows movement between addresses. It does not, on its own, prove legal ownership or identify a person. Attribution is assessed against supporting evidence and stated limitations.

Practical deliverables

Evidence your team can work with.

The scope and format are agreed for your purpose. Findings distinguish facts, analytical conclusions and information that still needs confirmation.

Asset-flow map

A structured view of relevant addresses, transfers and routes.

Transaction timeline

Key events, amounts, assets and transaction references in context.

Attribution assessment

Supported connections, the basis for each conclusion and remaining uncertainties.

Documented report

Evidence and methodology organised for your legal or investigation team.

Recovery-feasibility assessment

What appears actionable, what is uncertain and where further information is needed.

Coordination support

Investigation input for counsel, relevant platforms and other authorised participants.

Working together

A defined scope. A clear working relationship.

We fit the blockchain investigation into your existing case strategy. Counsel retains responsibility for legal strategy; your security provider retains technical containment.

  1. Confidential introduction

    Share the purpose and the parties involved at a high level. Arrange an NDA if required.

  2. Initial review

    Check whether we can accept the matter and assess the available starting material.

  3. Agreed mandate

    Define questions, deliverables, communication and the scope of the investigation.

  4. Investigation & reporting

    Work to the agreed scope, communicate material findings and document the outcome.

An enquiry does not create an engagement. Scope, information access, reporting, responsibilities and commercial terms are agreed before substantive work begins.

Before you share a case

Questions from clients and partners.

A clear starting point for a confidential conversation.

Start with your organisation, the nature of the matter and the question you need answered. Do not send privileged documents, personal data or sensitive evidence through the first-contact form. We agree a suitable channel after the initial conversation and any required NDA.

Sometimes. Payment records, correspondence or other lawfully obtained material may help establish a starting point. The initial review determines whether the available information is sufficient; we cannot promise that an address can always be identified.

Yes. We can discuss a post-payout investigation into stolen assets and their subsequent movement. The insurer and its counsel determine the legal basis and recovery strategy; we provide the agreed blockchain investigation.

We can prepare documented findings, transaction references and methodology for counsel. Required format, admissibility and any expert-evidence requirements depend on the forum and should be agreed with your legal team. We do not guarantee acceptance by a court.

Yes. We can act as the blockchain investigation specialist alongside legal, insurance, insolvency, asset-tracing and cybersecurity teams. Responsibilities and permitted information-sharing are agreed for the matter.

No. Visibility, attribution, available balances, third-party cooperation and legal procedures can limit the outcome. We explain material uncertainty and assess feasibility rather than promise a result that is outside our control.

Case enquiries & partnerships

Tell us what you need to establish.

An initial outline is enough. We will follow up to understand your objective, the available information and the right way to proceed.

  1. A focused first conversation

    The matter, your role and the decision you need to support.

  2. Confidentiality first

    Request an NDA before sending details that should not be shared openly.

  3. The right specialist connection

    A standalone investigation or blockchain support for your existing team.

Never submit passwords, private keys or seed phrases. Sensitive documents should be shared only through an agreed channel.

Start a confidential conversation

Tell us who you are and the type of support you need. A brief, non-sensitive outline is enough.

* Required fields. Do not include private keys, seed phrases or sensitive case documents.
