The trail may still be visible.
Public blockchain records can reveal where cryptocurrency moved. We examine relevant transactions alongside websites, accounts and communications to identify useful investigative leads.
Trace transactions
Examine wallet addresses, transaction hashes, amounts and timestamps to reconstruct the movement of funds. The scope depends on the networks involved and the available records.
Find service touchpoints
Look for interactions with exchanges and other services that may hold information relevant to your case. A service attribution is a lead, not proof of the account holder’s identity.
Connect the evidence
Combine blockchain analysis with open-source intelligence (OSINT): relevant websites, online profiles and other publicly available information that can help explain what happened.
Cases we can assess: fake investment platforms, romance scams involving cryptocurrency, wallet theft and suspicious business transfers. Lawyers and other professionals can also inquire about disputed digital assets.
From transfers to investigative leads
Funds may pass through several wallets and services. We distinguish documented transfers from possible connections and explain gaps in the available evidence.
Identifying an exchange does not reveal its customer’s identity. Access to private account information may require legal process or law-enforcement involvement.
Illustrative transaction path
An example of what tracing may reveal, not a promised result.
A report you can understand and use.
An investigation should make complex transactions understandable. We agree on the scope and deliverables before work begins.
Depending on the assignment, the report can help you and your professional advisers assess the evidence and consider further steps.
Depending on the agreed scope
- Transaction recordRelevant addresses, transaction hashes, dates and amounts.
- Flow of fundsA chronology or diagram connecting the transfers examined.
- Investigative findingsService touchpoints and relevant findings from digital research.
- Limits and open questionsWhat is supported, what remains uncertain and where the evidence stops.
Start with what you already know.
Tell us what happened
Send a short case summary through the form. Include the approximate loss, timing and whether you have transaction records.
Define the investigation
We assess the available information and discuss whether investigative work may be useful, along with the scope, fees and deliverables.
Examine and document
Once a mandate is agreed, we examine the relevant evidence and present the findings with their limitations.
Useful records to keep
Wallet addresses, transaction IDs, exchange records, website links, emails and conversations. Keep original records where possible. You do not need to upload them to make an initial inquiry.
Understand the limits of tracing.
Tracing can produce useful evidence and leads. It cannot guarantee that a wallet owner will be identified or that cryptocurrency will be recovered. Our fees pay for investigative work.
- Your seed phrase or private key
- Your wallet password
- Remote control of your wallet
- A “release fee” to unlock recovered funds
Your questions, answered.
Can stolen cryptocurrency still be traced?
Transfers recorded on public blockchains can often be followed between addresses. Swaps, bridges, mixers and custodial services can make the path harder to establish. We assess what can realistically be investigated from your records.
Does finding an exchange mean my funds can be recovered?
No. An exchange touchpoint may be a useful lead, but it does not establish that funds remain available or guarantee recovery. Any further action depends on the evidence and the parties or authorities able to act.
Can I contact SarX from the United States or Canada?
Yes. SarX is based and licensed in Quebec, Canada. We assess inquiries from both countries and explain the work we can undertake, subject to applicable requirements.
What if I do not have a wallet address or transaction ID?
You can still send an initial inquiry. Tell us which platform or exchange you used and what records you have. We can identify what additional information would be needed to assess a possible investigation.
How much does an investigation cost?
Fees depend on the scope, transaction complexity and available evidence. The proposed work, fees and deliverables are discussed before a mandate begins. Sending the form does not commit you to an investigation.
Can you prepare findings for my lawyer?
Depending on the agreed assignment, we can document transaction flows, supporting records and relevant investigative findings in a report for you and your lawyer. The scope should reflect the questions your adviser needs answered.
Request a case review
Tell us what happened and what records you have. We assess each inquiry individually, considering the available evidence and whether an investigation could be useful, whatever the amount lost.
What happens next?
A member of the SarX team will review your summary and reply to the email address you provide. We will explain the possible next steps and ask for any additional information needed. If an investigation is appropriate, we will discuss the scope, fees and deliverables before you decide whether to proceed.
Your information is sent securely to SarX for an initial review. Submitting a request does not mean SarX has accepted a mandate. For data questions or deletion requests, contact SarX.
