Builds on: Internet Evolution (Part 3): Dark Web, Cryptocurrency and Blockchain
Following Crypto: Tracing, Exchanges and Seizure
Readiness training. LEA.Training does not grant any official certificate, licence or authority.
Lesson 13 (Internet Evolution, Part 3: Dark Web, Cryptocurrency and Blockchain) said that cryptocurrency is pseudonymous, not anonymous. In a case, that means this: the ledger shows where value went, not who sent it. Names come from the places where crypto meets ordinary money.
Focus: what is a fact on the ledger, what is an inference, where to ask for a name, and how to seize safely. This unit does not teach how to hide funds. It is general knowledge. It is not legal or financial advice.
Learning objectives
- Separate ledger facts from inferences made by tracing tools.
- Explain why exchanges are the main route from an address to a person.
- Describe the "travel rule" and the limits of its reach.
- Name the main obstacles to tracing.
- Describe the steps and risks of seizing crypto, and what a court should be told about a trace.
