Crypto compliance investigations

Source-of-funds
verification.

A wallet balance is not a provenance record. We reconcile the documentary and on-chain history of crypto wealth so banks, law firms, transaction teams, and clients can make informed risk decisions.

The objective

Connect declared wealth
to verifiable activity.

We examine how assets were acquired, moved, held, and converted, and whether the evidence supports the stated explanation. The scope can cover a specific transaction, selected wallets, or a longer period of crypto activity.

Blockchain analytics is one part of the answer. Exchange statements, bank records, contracts, tax material, corporate records, and evidence of wallet control provide the off-chain context needed for a balanced conclusion.

Dissecting weak provenance

The narrative we test

01

A broad origin is asserted

Wealth is described as trading profit, early investment, mining, payment, or a gift without records linking the claim to the assets.
02

Only selected evidence appears

Screenshots or current balances are supplied while acquisition records, complete statements, counterparties, or losing activity are absent.
03

The chain of custody breaks

Transfers between services and self-hosted wallets are not reconciled, leaving ownership, value, or third-party exposure unresolved.
04

Urgency replaces explanation

Commercial pressure is used to bypass missing evidence or unresolved risk indicators rather than addressing them proportionately.
Our response

How we help

Scope

Define the question

We agree the assets, period, transaction, risk threshold, and intended use so the review remains targeted and proportionate.

Reconcile

Test records against the chain

We map relevant transactions, assess exposure, verify wallet control where possible, and reconcile documentary evidence with on-chain activity.

Report

Deliver a defensible finding

Our reporting records evidence, methodology, limitations, unresolved issues, and risk-relevant findings for the receiving institution or adviser.
