Focused transaction investigation, transaction by transaction.

What a transaction investigation covers

Some matters turn on a handful of transfers rather than a full tracing engagement: a deposit that never credited, a payment one party says was sent and the other says never arrived, or a withdrawal that left a venue and disappeared. A transaction investigation answers the narrow factual question precisely, using the public ledger as the source of record.

• Confirmation, timing, and fee analysis for each transaction
• Routing through intermediate addresses and contracts
• Linked-address discovery with stated rationale
• Counterparty and service attribution with confidence levels

Where it is most useful

Transaction-level work suits disputes where the facts are contested but the scope is narrow — exchange deposit and withdrawal issues, OTC and commercial payment disputes, and internal reviews of specific treasury movements. Because the question is focused, findings are usually available faster and at a more proportionate cost than a broad investigation.

• Exchange deposits and withdrawals that did not arrive
• OTC and business-to-business payment disputes
• Verification of a counterparty’s “sent” claim
• Internal review of specific treasury transfers

How findings are documented

Every finding is tied to a transaction hash, block reference, and explorer link so any reader can verify it independently. Where the evidence supports more than one interpretation, each is set out with its confidence level rather than collapsed into a single conclusion. If the work points to a wider pattern, we say so and scope any follow-on tracing separately in writing.
