Cryptocurrency Investigation Services & Prices

Yes. Stolen Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT and many other cryptocurrencies can often be traced using blockchain forensic investigation techniques. Most public blockchains retain permanent records of transactions, allowing investigators to analyse transfers, follow asset movements, identify interactions with cryptocurrency exchanges and examine connections between wallet addresses.

However, criminals may use cross-chain bridges, decentralised exchanges, mixers and other techniques to complicate tracing.

Tracing cryptocurrency does not guarantee recovery or identification of the person responsible. 

The outcome depends on the available evidence and circumstances of the case.

Yes. Intelligence On Chain offers a completely free initial case assessment for victims of cryptocurrency-related fraud and theft. Our human-reviewed assessment helps establish what may have happened to your assets, identify initial fund movements and explain potential investigative opportunities.

The assessment may include basic blockchain tracing, examination of relevant transactions and guidance on practical next steps.

There is no upfront fee, no obligation to commission paid work and no guarantee of cryptocurrency recovery.

When you submit a case through Intelligence On Chain, an investigator reviews the information and transaction details you provide.

Depending on the circumstances, the initial assessment may involve:

• Reviewing cryptocurrency wallet addresses and transaction hashes.
• Conducting preliminary blockchain transaction tracing.
• Identifying potential cryptocurrency exchange or service destinations.
• Highlighting investigative leads and limitations.
• Explaining whether further investigation may be worthwhile.
• Providing guidance on practical next steps, including appropriate reporting channels.

The free assessment is designed to help you understand your situation before making financial decisions about further investigative work. It does not include comprehensive forensic analysis, extensive OSINT attribution or formal expert reporting.

A cryptocurrency investigator can potentially identify where stolen digital assets have moved and uncover evidence that may support recovery efforts. However, investigators generally cannot recover or seize assets simply because they have traced them. Recovery may depend on cooperation from cryptocurrency exchanges, law enforcement authorities, legal representatives or other authorised parties.

Intelligence On Chain specialises in tracing cryptocurrency, analysing transactions, identifying investigative leads and producing evidence-based findings.

We do not promise guaranteed recovery, and we encourage victims to exercise caution around anyone demanding advance payments in exchange for guaranteed results.

In some circumstances, blockchain forensic analysis and open-source intelligence can help identify individuals, organisations or services associated with a cryptocurrency wallet. Investigators may examine transaction relationships, known exchange infrastructure, behavioural patterns, publicly available information and other relevant evidence.

However, wallet addresses are pseudonymous and do not automatically reveal the identity of their owners.

At Intelligence On Chain, we distinguish verified attribution from investigative hypotheses and explain the confidence and limitations associated with our findings.

Intelligence On Chain undertakes specialist investigations involving cryptocurrency fraud, digital asset theft and complex blockchain activity.

Our investigative services include:

• Cryptocurrency investment scams and fraudulent trading platforms.
• Bitcoin, Ethereum and stablecoin transaction tracing.
• Wallet compromises, phishing and unauthorised transfers.
• Smart contract exploitation and suspicious token activity.
• Cross-chain asset movements and cryptocurrency laundering.
• Decentralised finance (DeFi) transaction analysis.
• Blockchain address attribution and OSINT research.
• Independent forensic reviews and investigation reports.
• Technical support for lawyers, organisations and law enforcement.

Each case is assessed individually to establish its scope, available evidence and investigative objectives.

The cost of a cryptocurrency investigation depends on the complexity of the transactions, the number of blockchain networks involved, the investigative objectives and the level of reporting required.

Some investigations involve a limited number of transactions. Others require extensive tracing, smart contract analysis, cross-chain investigation and open-source intelligence research.

Intelligence On Chain provides a defined scope and quotation before undertaking paid investigative work.

For victims of cryptocurrency-related crime, our initial case assessment remains completely free.

Yes. Historical cryptocurrency theft and fraud cases can often be investigated because transaction records on public blockchains generally remain accessible. Investigators may reconstruct past movements, examine interactions with cryptocurrency services and identify evidence that was not previously recognised.

However, older cases can present significant challenges. Funds may have been dispersed, withdrawn, transferred through privacy-enhancing services or moved beyond practical intervention.

While historical investigations may uncover useful evidence, recovery opportunities can be limited. We aim to provide a realistic assessment before recommending further paid work.

The duration of a cryptocurrency investigation depends on the volume of transactions, the number of wallets, the blockchains involved and the techniques used to move or obscure assets.

Straightforward cases may require relatively limited analysis, while complex cases can involve extensive transaction reconstruction and attribution research.

Intelligence On Chain establishes the intended investigative scope and discusses anticipated timescales before commencing paid work.

Where cryptocurrency has recently been stolen, prompt action is particularly important because some investigative opportunities may be time-sensitive.

Yes. Victims of suspected cryptocurrency theft or fraud should report the incident to the appropriate police or national reporting authority as soon as practicable.

Law enforcement agencies may have legal powers to request information from cryptocurrency exchanges, obtain account records or pursue asset-freezing measures.

Private blockchain investigators cannot compel exchanges to release confidential customer information or independently seize funds.

Intelligence On Chain can help identify relevant blockchain activity, document investigative findings and provide technical information that may assist authorised investigations.

You do not need specialist technical knowledge to request assistance.

Useful evidence may include:

• Cryptocurrency wallet addresses.
• Transaction hashes or transaction IDs.
• The names of cryptocurrency exchanges or platforms involved.
• Dates and approximate values of transactions.
• Screenshots, communications and relevant correspondence.
• Websites or profiles associated with suspected fraudulent activity.
• Existing police reports or previous investigation findings.

Even incomplete information may be useful for an initial assessment.

Never disclose cryptocurrency seed phrases, private keys, passwords or authentication codes. 

Intelligence On Chain does not require these credentials to investigate blockchain transactions.

Blockchain forensic investigations can produce technical findings that may assist legal professionals, law enforcement agencies and other authorised parties.

Depending on the agreed scope, investigation reports may contain transaction histories, wallet relationships, asset tracing diagrams, attribution analysis and explanations of investigative methodology.

A defensible investigation should clearly distinguish established facts from assumptions, explain relevant limitations and preserve the reasoning behind its conclusions.

Whether particular evidence is admissible or sufficient in legal proceedings depends on the applicable jurisdiction, procedural requirements and circumstances of the case.

Yes. Intelligence On Chain provides blockchain investigation training and specialist investigative services relevant to law enforcement personnel, legal professionals and organisations.

Our approach combines blockchain transaction analysis, open-source intelligence, behavioural assessment and transparent investigative methodology.

We focus on evidence-led conclusions that can be explained, reviewed and independently scrutinised.

We recognise that cryptocurrency investigations often involve sensitive financial information, personal circumstances and potentially ongoing legal or criminal proceedings.

Intelligence On Chain handles case information in accordance with its applicable privacy policies and engagement terms.

Clients with particular confidentiality requirements should raise these before sharing sensitive case materials or commissioning investigative work.

If you have experienced cryptocurrency theft, suspect fraud or need professional blockchain tracing services, you can begin by providing an outline of the matter and the information available.

Victims of cryptocurrency-related crime can submit their case through our free initial assessment service. Our team can review the initial details, explain possible next steps and determine whether a more comprehensive investigation may be appropriate.

You are never obligated to commission additional paid services.
