Services

What we do. And what you get from each.

01Evidentiary strategy

We help counsel set out the factual questions that matter, sort which can be answered from public blockchain data and which need private records, and flag the ones that cannot be answered at all.

02Discovery support

Which exchanges and swap services to subpoena, what data to ask for, how to serve it, and how to handle objections from counterparties. We draft the specification of records so nothing comes back incomplete.

03Forensic investigation

Follow-the-money tracing across public and proprietary blockchain data, documented and visualized so a judge or jury can follow it.

04Expert testimony

Subject-matter testimony on how blockchains work, how users and market participants behave, and what compliance practice in the industry actually looks like — including the extent of a party's holdings in divorce proceedings.

05Service by NFT

When a defendant is overseas or cannot be located, a token sent to an address known to belong to them can serve as a method of service. We help counsel prepare and execute it.

How it runs

The same four stages, every case.

01IntakeYou send what you have — hashes, addresses, the story so far. We tell you which questions the chain can answer, what it will take, and what it will cost before any work begins.
02TracingFunds are followed hop by hop across chains, bridges and swap services using public and proprietary data, until they reach a service that holds records.
03AttributionWe identify the exchanges and custodians the funds reached, and what they are likely to hold — so a subpoena or data request asks for exactly the right thing.
04EvidenceFindings are delivered as a documented, visualized report written for the reader who has to rely on it: counsel, a court, or an agency.
