Cryptocurrency is becoming increasingly more common, as is its risk for theft and embezzlement.
As the demand for cryptocurrency grows, the need for individuals and businesses to understand, trace, and determine how and where cryptocurrency was used also increases. With their unique skillset, experience, and continuing education, our forensic accountants and digital forensic professionals are distinctly positioned to assist in tracing crypto assets and providing clarity for your case.
Cryptocurrency Tracing
Contrary to popular belief, most cryptocurrency transactions are not completely anonymous. When transacted, cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum contain accessible information. Eide Bailly utilizes state of the art forensic tools and resources to track the movement of cryptocurrency to public addresses. Although these addresses will not list a person’s identity, in certain cases cryptocurrency can be traced to an exchange or other source to help identify the beneficiaries of the transaction(s).
Our forensic professionals are available to assist with your unique situation on the following types of issues:
- Cryptocurrency tracing
- Marital dissolution
- Bankruptcy
- Asset conversion
- Fraud and corruption
- Insurance claims
- Investigations
- Litigation support
Utilizing blockchain, we can assess each situation to help identify the entry and exit points of cryptocurrency transactions.
