Crypto Investigations | Asset Tracing | OSINT
I provide blockchain intelligence, crypto-asset tracing, OSINT, and investigation support for attorneys, receivers, trustees, investigators, corporate-risk teams, insurers, financial institutions, and sophisticated private clients. I lead evidence-driven matters involving cryptocurrency fraud, theft, compromise incidents, asset discovery, divorce and civil disputes, receiverships, judgment enforcement, insolvency, sanctions/AML research, regulatory exposure, and corporate due diligence. BLOCKCHAIN TRACING & ANALYSIS I reconstruct observable digital-asset movement across EVM and non-EVM ecosystems, including Bitcoin UTXO flows; Ethereum and other EVM networks; stablecoin activity; DEX swaps; bridges; smart-contract interactions; DeFi protocols; mixers and obfuscation patterns; and centralized-exchange or hosted-service exposure. Each matter begins with a disciplined review of known wallet addresses, transaction hashes, networks, dates, loss records, exchange records, communications, screenshots, and the factual chronology. I develop transaction-flow timelines, wallet/address inventories, holdings tables, source logs, public-source research, and evidence-oriented findings memoranda. Where supported by the available data, I identify potential VASP, exchange, bridge, protocol, service, or counterparty touchpoints for counsel, internal investigators, or law enforcement to evaluate for preservation, cooperation, or appropriate legal process. ADVANCED ANALYTICS & SPECIALIST SUPPORT Complex matters may require proprietary blockchain analytics, advanced cross-chain visualization, enhanced service attribution, or specialist forensic review beyond public explorers and open-source data. For qualifying engagements, I define and coordinate a separately scoped workstream with appropriately licensed blockchain-analytics and forensic providers while remaining the primary point of contact for strategy, evidence development, OSINT, scope control, and the integrated investigative deliverable. OSINT, FINANCIAL & LEGAL-SUPPORT RESEARCH My work may include public-record, corporate, entity, domain, website, social-media, digital-footprint, exchange/service, transaction-context, adverse-media, and sanctions-context research, together with evidence organization for legal and compliance workflows. For attorney-directed matters, I prepare structured research leads and evidence packages that support decisions about preservation demands, discovery, subpoenas, exchange outreach, civil remedies, regulatory notifications, and law-enforcement reporting. I do not provide legal advice or issue legal process. LITIGATION CONSULTING & EXPERT-WITNESS SUPPORT I support attorney-directed blockchain investigations through case assessment, evidence organization, transaction chronology development, technical research, report-preparation support, and review of blockchain-related materials. For qualifying matters, I coordinate specialist support and assist counsel with technical-report, deposition, hearing, and trial preparation. DELIVERABLES Transaction-flow reconstructions, chronologies, and visual summaries Wallet/address, transaction-hash, and asset/holdings inventories Cross-chain and service/exchange exposure summaries OSINT, entity, corporate, public-record, and digital-footprint memoranda Evidence inventories, source logs, timestamped exhibits, and research tables Attorney/investigator briefing memoranda and investigation plans Potential preservation, discovery, exchange-contact, or law-enforcement research leads ENGAGEMENT MODEL Rapid intake and triage to assess facts, data, records, objectives, and time sensitivity. Defined-scope blockchain research, OSINT, evidence development, and reporting. Separately scoped specialist escalation for high-complexity routing, proprietary analytics, or specialist reporting. Integrated findings that distinguish confirmed facts, observable activity, analytical indicators, open questions, limitations, and recommended next steps. I work with confidentiality, disciplined scope control, source documentation, reproducible research practices, and clear analytical limitations. I do not guarantee recovery, identity attribution, exchange disclosure, legal outcomes, preservation action, subpoena issuance, regulatory action, or law-enforcement action. Customer records and activity inside centralized services depend on that service’s cooperation and, where appropriate, lawful process.
