FAQs
Find answers to your most pressing questions about REKTify and its features.
What Is Digital Asset Recovery?
Digital asset recovery is the process of tracing, identifying, and attempting to recover stolen or lost cryptocurrency. This often involves blockchain analysis, forensic investigation, legal action, and cooperation with cryptocurrency exchanges or law enforcement.
Is it Possible to Recover Lost Cryptocurrency?
In many cases, yes. However, recovery depends on several factors, including how quickly the investigations begin and where the assets have moved.
The recovery process typically involves several stages:
- Blockchain investigation
- Identification of exchanges or service providers
- Legal or compliance action
- Recovery or restitution process
Importantly, the scammer does not always need to be arrested for recovery to occur. In many cases, recovery efforts focus on locating and securing the assets through civil legal action and cooperation with exchanges.
Because cryptocurrency transactions can move across jurisdictions at pace, starting the investigations as early as possible significantly increases the chances of a successful outcome.
How Does Deploying Legal Notices On-Chain Help Asset Recovery?
Deploying legal notices directly on-chain means that verified legal or compliance information is attached to a specific cryptocurrency wallet on the blockchain.
These markers act as a visible warning to cryptocurrency exchanges, compliance teams, and digital asset service providers that the fund associated with the wallet may be linked to financial crime.
If the funds later move to a centralised exchange (CEX) in an attempt to convert them to cash or another asset, the exchange’s compliance team can detect the legal notice(s) or fraud marker.
In simple terms, this makes it harder for the criminals to cash out the stolen assets without getting caught or having the assets frozen for recovery.
How Do I Get My Cryptocurrency Back From a Scammer?
If you have been scammed, the first step is to document all relevant information, including wallet addresses, transaction IDs, and communications with the scammer. A specialist digital asset investigation from iSanctuary can then trace the funds and determine whether recovery actions are possible.
How Quickly Should a Crypto Recovery Investigation Begin?
Immediately. Cryptocurrency can be moved across multiple wallets and exchanges within minutes. The sooner an investigation begins, the greater the chance of identifying and recovering the assets.
