Overview

All investigation services

Wallet analysis is often the quickest way to establish whether an investigation has a foundation. Before committing to a full case, it answers a simple question: does this address show a route worth tracing?

It is also used alongside a wider investigation, to test a counterparty address or to document how a wallet behaved across a series of payments.

What the analysis documents

The output is a written summary of the address's behaviour, with the transactions that support each observation.

  • Inflows and outflows with dates, amounts and counterparty counts
  • Consolidation into central wallets and periods of dormancy
  • Exposure to addresses publicly attributed to exchanges or mixers
  • Behaviour consistent with a collector wallet used for many victims

Limits you should expect

Address analysis describes activity, not intent or identity. It cannot tell you who controls a wallet, whether a counterparty is a person or a company, or why a payment was made.

  • No attribution of ownership, and no claim of one
  • No recovery of funds, and no ability to freeze an address
  • Conclusions are limited to what public ledger data can support
