Case Study: Tracing Funds Through a Peel Chain
6 January, 2026
Tracing cryptocurrency transactions can be complex, especially if assets have been lost, sent to the wrong address, or involved in a scam. At Crypto Tracing Experts (CTE), we help individuals and organisations understand the movement of their digital assets and work to recover lost funds where possible. To carry out a successful cryptocurrency trace, it’s essential to provide accurate and detailed information about your transactions.
If you deposited GBP or another fiat currency into a cryptocurrency exchange, knowing exactly which exchange you used is vital. This provides a starting point for tracing the path of your cryptocurrency. Whether you’re wondering “can stolen crypto assets be recovered?” or seeking a full trace of your funds, the initial exchange is the foundation of any investigation.
Common exchanges include Coinbase, Crypto.com, Kraken, eToro, and Binance. Providing the exact exchange ensures we can access the relevant transaction records and trace your assets effectively.
Next, specify which cryptocurrency you purchased. Whether it’s Bitcoin, Ethereum, or another digital asset, this information allows our team to track subsequent movements accurately. Clear records of your transactions make the tracing process faster and increase the likelihood of recovery if funds were lost, sent to the wrong address, or involved in a scam.
Understanding where the cryptocurrency was sent is often the most critical piece of information. If you transferred crypto under instructions, provide details of the recipient wallet, another exchange, or third-party service. This step enables our experts to trace the trajectory of your assets and identify their last publicly identifiable location on the blockchain.
If you already hold cryptocurrency in a wallet or on an exchange, the focus shifts to the destination of any outgoing funds. Accurate details here help our team follow the asset trail and determine where your funds ended up.
Providing a transaction history statement, withdrawal confirmations, or emails from your exchange is invaluable. These documents allow us to verify amounts, dates, and destinations, creating a complete view of your asset movements.
Once we have a clear starting point and destination, we can trace your funds to their last identifiable location on the blockchain. While not all cryptocurrencies can be recovered, this process provides transparency, accuracy, and insight into the movement of your digital assets.
By compiling the information above, you enable our team to carry out a thorough cryptocurrency trace. CTE offers expert guidance and clear reporting throughout the process.
We assist clients in recovering lost funds, tracing stolen crypto, and understanding the movement of digital assets.
