At CEL Solicitors, we use innovative blockchain analytics to trace digital assets and provide clear, actionable solutions to aid in their recovery. Even if your cryptocurrency has been moved through multiple wallets or mixed with other funds, we have the tools and expertise to track its path.
A Crypto Investigation Report (sometimes called a Crypto Investigation Report) is a detailed forensic investigation that tracks the movement of stolen cryptocurrency across the blockchain. Because crypto transactions are pseudonymous and decentralized, recovery requires specialist technical intervention.
To ensure the highest level of forensic accuracy, CEL Solicitors instructs our sister organisation, The Crypto Tracing Experts (CTE), to undertake this work. Acting on our behalf, CTE leverages advanced tools—including Chainalysis Reactor software—to compile the evidence needed to collaborate with police and financial institutions. A standard Crypto Investigation Report is priced at £6,000 plus VAT, with more complex reports also available.
A report on its own won’t get your crypto back. It gives police, exchanges and lawyers the evidence they need to act, and what happens next is up to them.
We trace where your funds ended up, a task requiring expertise and specialist tools.
Exchanges usually need evidence before they’ll freeze stolen funds. Our reports are designed to give them that evidence.
We study and log every transaction, mapping your funds from wallet to wallet.
Our reports include charts and visual breakdowns to simplify complex transaction chains.
Once funds are frozen, law enforcement can act to retrieve them. In some cases, exchanges may return assets voluntarily or litigation may be required.
By analysing wallet activity and providing expert evidence, our findings can help law enforcement identify the people behind the scam.
Our insights can also help individuals and businesses safeguard against future crypto fraud risks.
In cases that escalate to legal proceedings, our experts can offer testimony to strengthen your case.
Inform the police and obtain a crime reference number. If you purchased cryptocurrency to invest in a scam, you may also be eligible to claim losses from your bank.

A blockchain is a special type of database that stores information securely and transparently by organising data into blocks that are linked together in a chain. Each block contains a list of transactions, and once a block is filled, it is added to the chain in chronological order. This chain is then shared across a network of computers, known as nodes, which all have a copy of the entire blockchain.
Once added, blocks cannot be changed without altering all subsequent blocks, which would require agreement from the majority of the network. This makes the blockchain resistant to fraud and tampering. Blockchains are most known for their use in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, but they can also be used for other applications such as tracking supply chains, recording property ownership, and securing voting systems.
Cryptocurrency is a type of digital or virtual money that exists only online. Unlike traditional money, such as pounds or euros, cryptocurrency doesn’t have a physical form like coins or banknotes. Instead, it uses technology called blockchain to ensure that transactions are secure and transparent.
Cryptocurrency is completely electronic and can’t be held in your hand. Unlike regular money, which is issued and regulated by governments or banks, cryptocurrency is usually decentralised, meaning no single entity controls it.
A Crypto Investigation Report is a paid report showing where your crypto went. Anyone, anywhere in the world, can order one. A scam recovery claim is different. If you’re in the UK, our fraud team may be able to claim your money back from your bank or the exchange you used, on a no-win, no-fee basis. You can have one, the other, or both.
Try not to panic. First, tell your bank or payment provider straight away. They may be able to stop more money leaving your account. Next, report the scam to Report Fraud, the national reporting centre for fraud in England and Wales. Then gather any records, such as emails, messages, receipts and bank statements. When you’re ready, get in touch, and we’ll give you honest advice on what to do next.
We use Chainalysis Reactor and other forensic technologies to provide industry-leading blockchain investigation services.
A crypto investigation traces the movement of your stolen assets across the blockchain, following the trail from the point of theft through every wallet and transaction until we identify where the funds ended up. Our blockchain analysts work together to compile this evidence into a formal Crypto Tracing Report, which can be used to support police investigations, freeze stolen assets at exchanges, or pursue legal action against the perpetrators.
Your report is produced by The Crypto Tracing Experts (CTE), our sister company, on our behalf. CTE’s analysts use specialist tools, including Chainalysis Reactor, to trace your crypto.
