Crypto Asset Recovery
We locate and recover concealed or misappropriated cryptocurrency on behalf of clients who have lost digital assets to fraud, theft, or misappropriation — tracing funds even when routed through mixers, exchanges, and layered wallets.
What is crypto asset recovery?
Crypto asset recovery is the process of identifying, tracing, and legally pursuing concealed or stolen cryptocurrency. Unlike fiat, cryptocurrency moves on a public ledger — but ownership is obscured through mixers, chain-hopping, and shell wallets. Recovery requires combining on-chain tracing with human intelligence to identify the individuals who ultimately control the funds.
How we help
- 01On-chain transaction tracing across multiple blockchains
- 02Wallet clustering and beneficiary identification
- 03Exchange and off-ramp surveillance
- 04HUMINT operations to link wallets to real-world identities
- 05Coordination with law firms for lawful recovery action
What can realistically be done
Realistically, recovery is possible when stolen or concealed cryptocurrency can be traced to an identifiable holder and a jurisdiction that permits lawful action. On-chain tracing can reconstruct where funds moved, which exchanges received them, and which wallet clusters are connected. Where funds reach a regulated exchange, lawful mechanisms — civil claims, disclosure orders, and law-enforcement coordination — can be used to pursue the beneficiary. Recovery is not possible in every case, particularly when funds are dispersed across many small wallets, moved entirely through privacy coins, or cashed out through unregulated channels.
Evidence required
The stronger the evidence package, the more precise the investigation. Gather what you can before contacting us.
- 01Wallet addresses involved (sending and receiving)
- 02Transaction IDs (hashes) for each relevant transfer
- 03Approximate dates and amounts of the transfers
- 04Communications with the suspected perpetrator
- 05Any platform URLs, account numbers, or exchange references
- 06A timeline of events leading to the loss
Typical obstacles
Every case faces friction. Understanding the obstacles upfront sets realistic expectations for what recovery can achieve.
- —Funds routed through mixers or tumblers that fragment the trail
- —Chain-hopping via bridges and decentralized swaps
- —Use of privacy coins or privacy-preserving protocols
- —Cash-out through unregulated or non-compliant exchanges
- —Beneficiaries located in jurisdictions with limited cooperation
- —Time elapsed since the loss, degrading traceable links
Relevant jurisdictions
We coordinate recovery across more than 75 jurisdictions. The most actionable cases involve funds reaching exchanges regulated in the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, Switzerland, Singapore, UAE, and Hong Kong — jurisdictions with established legal frameworks for asset disclosure and freezing. Where funds reach less cooperative jurisdictions, recovery depends on local legal channels and the strength of the evidence package.

Frequently asked questions
Can stolen cryptocurrency be recovered?
Recovery depends on whether the funds can be traced to a identifiable holder and a jurisdiction that permits lawful action. We provide a confidential case assessment to determine feasibility before any engagement. We do not guarantee recovery.
How long does crypto asset recovery take?
Timelines vary widely depending on the complexity of the transaction trail, the number of intermediaries, and the jurisdictions involved. An initial feasibility assessment is provided at no charge.
What does crypto asset recovery cost?
We operate on a success-based model: 30% commission on funds recovered, with no charge if no recovery is achieved. We do not demand unexplained upfront fees.
We offer a confidential case assessment — not a guaranteed recovery promise. Regulators including the FCA and FTC warn consumers about services that guarantee recovery, demand unexplained upfront fees, or impersonate authorities. We charge only on actual recovery.
