🕵️♂️ It really feels great to help people during dark times
Today we helped @NiwinEth, a proud owner of @cryptopunks #8832! Their wallet was compromised, which saw the theft of the Punk among other assets!
😱 This is how it started ⬇️
Then @lorepunk got in touch on Niwin's behalf and we didn't hesitate!
1️⃣ The first priority is always secure any remaining assets.
2️⃣ Then we set about doing what we do best - Tracing
3️⃣ We also need to try to understand the cause!
4️⃣ Next, we watch and wait. This is where the break came from. The Punk was sold for 40 ETH and that was deposited to @okx
5️⃣ Now it's all about timing and luck. Luckily on this occasion, we caught it in time.
6️⃣ OKX didn't hesitate either - they were successful in freezing the proceeds.
7️⃣ Now its all about law enforcement - They NEED to get involved. @NiwinEth is working hard to achieve this!
Here is how it is now! Still work to do but Niwin now has a much higher chance of success.
Best of luck @NiwinEth 💙

Is crypto investigation becoming a game only the big boys can afford?
With the launch of Arkham Enterprise, there's a growing concern that some of the best investigation tools are becoming increasingly expensive for independent investigators and smaller teams.
But here's the thing.
You don't need an enterprise budget to be a good investigator.
With a bit of AI, some Python scripts, a few API keys and the willingness to get your hands dirty, you can still do an awful lot.
We're talking about automating blockchain analysis, identifying wallet connections, gathering OSINT, extracting transaction data and building your own investigation tools.
And no, you don't need to be a developer to get started.
We're considering running a live, practical class showing investigators how to build their own tools using AI, without spending thousands on software licences.
No expensive subscriptions. No pretending AI does the investigating for you. Just practical skills you can take away and use.
Would you be interested?
💬 Comment "BUILD" below if you'd like us to run this class.
If there's enough interest, we'll put something together.
1/ Why do so many crypto traces seem to "stop" at an instant exchange?
A short explainer for anyone learning to trace. 🧵
4/ The usual signals are timing (how close in time the in and out legs are) and value (does the outgoing amount fit the deposit, less fees and price movement?).
One starting transaction.
No scenario. No labels. No hints.
Where do you look first, and why?
Reply with your first step. We'll share how we'd approach it.
Something new for investigators is coming this week. 🔎
#CryptoTracing
7,846 minutes of training delivered in September alone.
That’s over 130 hours spent helping people develop the skills to investigate cryptocurrency-related crime.
From complete beginners to experienced investigators, we’ve been teaching people how to follow the money, uncover digital evidence and think critically about what the blockchain is really telling them.
And there’s something incredibly rewarding about watching someone go from having no idea where to start to confidently conducting their own investigations.
We believe these skills should be accessible to everyone.
So, we’re making our Level 1 Blockchain & OSINT Investigations course available for just £40 (normally £195).
Two hours of live, practical training designed to give you the foundations to start investigating.
No expensive forensic tools required. Just curiosity and a willingness to learn.
Interested? Comment “LEVEL 1” below and we’ll send you the details.
And as always, training remains completely FREE for law enforcement worldwide.what’s

Why should someone who's already lost everything have to pay just to find out what happened?
It's a question we asked ourselves.
And it's why @Intell_on_Chain launched IOC Support.
A completely FREE initial assessment service for victims of cryptocurrency fraud and theft.
