A practical investigative guide for attorneys handling judgment enforcement, matrimonial disputes, civil litigation, and other matters involving suspected cryptocurrency assets.
Attorneys increasingly encounter cases where cryptocurrency assets are suspected to exist but have not yet been identified or established through blockchain-based evidence. Successfully locating digital assets can improve recovery prospects in judgment enforcement proceedings, civil litigation, divorce matters, and other disputes involving concealed or undisclosed assets.
Cryptocurrency investigations often involve blockchain tracing. But blockchain tracing generally requires a starting point, such as a wallet address or transaction hash. In many civil matters, no such evidence is available at the outset.
This three-part series examines how attorneys and investigators can bridge that gap: beginning with traditional financial records, moving through targeted third-party discovery, and ultimately developing the exchange and blockchain evidence needed for forensic analysis.
How bank records can reveal cryptocurrency activity and previously unknown relationships with exchanges and other digital asset services.
Discovery strategies for moving beyond bank records to identify cryptocurrency exchange accounts.
How to interpret exchange production, identify the records most relevant to asset tracing, and develop the blockchain evidence needed for further forensic analysis.
