Cryptocurrency Tracing
Following digital money across public ledgers.
Blockchain analysis and wallet attribution for fraud matters, receiver estates, divorce asset discovery, and enforcement work. On-chain evidence preserved and reported in a form that supports expert testimony.
Overview
Blockchains are public. Tracing them is not trivial.
Public blockchains record every transaction, which means the money trail is there for anyone who can read it. Reading it at a level that supports civil recovery, receiver decisions, or testimony takes specialist tooling and a forensic methodology that stands up to the same scrutiny as any other kind of evidence.
We trace transactions across Bitcoin, Ethereum, and the major alternative chains and token ecosystems. For matters that touch privacy-preserving chains or mixed-use wallets, we document what we can conclude, what we cannot, and where the probability ranges sit.
Where This Comes Up
Matter types we routinely handle.
Investment fraud and Ponzi matters
SEC, CFTC, and FTC-initiated receiver work where recovery depends on identifying, tracing, and where possible freezing on-chain assets. Our receivership practice and our crypto-tracing practice overlap heavily in these matters.
Divorce and marital asset discovery
Hidden crypto holdings are increasingly common in contested divorces. We trace activity from known exchange accounts, identify likely controlled wallets, and produce reports suitable for forensic accounting and judicial review.
Business Email Compromise recovery
Ransom and fraud proceeds moved across on-chain rails. Rapid tracing to first-known off-ramp, coordination with counsel and law enforcement, and documentation for civil recovery and law-enforcement referral.
Ransomware proceeds
Where ransom was paid, we trace the outflow to identify the recipient cluster, recovery possibilities, and sanctions-exposure implications for the victim and its insurers.
