Investigations
Wallet & Entity Intelligence
Assessing connections between wallet activity, services and identifiable entities.
Attribution is where blockchain analysis becomes investigation. A wallet is not a person, and treating it as one is how conclusions become unsafe.
Evident assesses the strength of the connection between wallet activity and an entity, and states plainly how confident that assessment is.
How we approach it
01
Clustering and behaviour
We examine address grouping, timing, value patterns and operational habits that indicate common control.
02
Service interaction
We identify interactions with exchanges, custodians and other services that create records held by third parties.
03
Confidence assessment
Every attribution is graded, with the reasoning and its limitations set out in writing.
What to expect
From enquiry to deliverables
A clear, staged process from your first contact to the final report. You will always know what stage the matter is at and what comes next.
Step 01
Initial enquiry
You tell us, in outline, what has happened and what you need to establish. No sensitive account details are needed at this stage.
Step 02
Confidential discussion
We review your summary and arrange an initial confidential discussion to understand the matter and the evidence you already hold.
Step 03
Scope and proposal
We set out what can realistically be investigated, the approach we would take, and the likely cost. If an investigation is not justified, we say so here.
Step 04
Instruction and investigation
Once instructed, we carry out the investigation using our defined framework, keeping you informed at agreed points.
Step 05
Findings and deliverables
You receive a clear written report of the findings, with each conclusion graded as verified fact, supported inference or unknown, ready to share with your advisers.
Step 06
Debrief and next steps
We talk you through the report, answer questions, and outline the options the findings support.
