Pawel Kuskowski, CEO at London-based Coinfirm<\/a>, a company focused on developing regulations technology, or Regtech, for blockchain-based financial assets, estimates that there\u2019s $10 billion in stolen cryptocurrencies. In order to help victims recover their funds, Coinfirm has partnered with cybersecurity firm Krollwire to launch ReclaimCrypto.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s usually no recourse for people who\u2019ve lost their crypto assets due to a malicious hack, exit scams, or Ponzi scheme. Explaining the nature of the problem, Kuskowski told CoinDesk<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no one place where victims can go and get help. It\u2019s almost like they are pleading to get someone interested in their case. In the end, they have to work it out themselves; see about getting a lawyer, perhaps in some other jurisdictions.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

CipherTrace: $4 billion in cryptocurrency lost in 2019<\/h2>\n

Analytics firm CipherTrace<\/a> estimates that around $4 billion in cryptocurrency was lost in 2019. Kuskowski\u2019s estimate takes historic events such as the infamous Mt. Gox<\/a> hack into consideration, which accounts for approximately $1 billion (at current market rates) in stolen or lost funds.<\/p>\n

There are around 200 cases, accounting for $1.5 billion, where users\u2019 lost assets can be recovered, according to a market analysis performed by Kuskowski\u2019s firm.<\/p>\n

Coinfirm\u2019s main service involves building anti-money laundering (AML) checks within cryptocurrency platforms. The company does this by examining transaction logs, which are analyzed using Big Data tools. Coinfirm reportedly works with about 50 exchanges by helping them leverage Regtech to improve the security of their platforms.<\/p>\n

One of Coinfirm\u2019s business partners, Kroll<\/a>, obtains court orders that require internet service providers to provide information such as IP addresses that may be linked with a hack or a security breach. Kroll also works with former FBI and CIA agents to monitor the dark web for any suspicious activity that may be connected to stolen cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n

Kroll has been working with the SEC to investigate fraudulent token sales<\/h2>\n

Kroll has been working closely<\/a> with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) since 2018. The company and the federal regulator have been investigating potentially fraudulent token sales. Kroll reveals that its efforts have helped track down criminals who were allegedly involved in a multi-million dollar bitcoin heist.<\/p>\n

Kroll also has access to third-party litigation funding, meaning that it can offer specialized types of financial services through its partner firms. For instance, companies like Burford Capital and Therium may cover victims\u2019 cost of litigation. In exchange for their help, the firms take around 30 percent of the recovered assets, while giving the rest back to the victims.<\/p>\n

Benedict Hamilton, managing director at Kroll, revealed that the company\u2019s cybersecurity division operates a specialist dark web investigation unit that\u2019s managed by Keith Wojcieszek, former head of the internet criminal investigations unit at the US Secret Service.<\/p>\n

Kroll\u2019s cyber investigation division analyzes large amounts of data from the dark web, which is obtained from various peer-to-peer websites. Hamilton commented:<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the ReclaimCrypto initiative in mind we have have been able to repurpose it so we can go into that database with a wallet string and look for any identifiers that are associated with that wallet name \u2013 perhaps a conversation over the selling of stolen credit cards or someone offering criminal services and providing that wallet as an address.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

ReclaimCrypto will mainly try to recover Bitcoin and Ether<\/h2>\n

Hamilton further noted that during an investigation, his team tries to determine who stole the funds or it follows the money trail through block explorers.<\/p>\n

ReclaimCrypto\u2019s main purpose is to recover lost or stolen funds because that\u2019s what the company\u2019s customers will be paying for.<\/p>\n

ReclaimCrypto\u2019s management said it will mainly try to recover Bitcoin<\/a> (BTC) and Ether<\/a> (ETH), however, it might also help clients track down missing XRP<\/a>, Bitcoin Cash<\/a> (BCH), Litecoin<\/a> (LTC), NEO<\/a> and Dash<\/a> (DASH).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
