Cryptocurrency Tracing Tool

Background:

The surge in the use of cryptocurrencies has presented challenges for law enforcement agencies (LEAs) in effectively tracing and monitoring illicit activities involving digital assets. Criminals often exploit the anonymity provided by blockchain technology, utilizing mixers and tumblers to obfuscate transaction trails. To address this issue, there is a pressing need for a robust cryptocurrency tracing tool that empowers LEAs to analyze transactions, decode mixers, and track illicit activities while adhering to regulatory requirements and safeguarding user privacy.

Developing a comprehensive cryptocurrency tracing tool that supports LEAs in effectively investigating and monitoring cryptocurrency transactions, especially those involving mixers and tumblers. The tool should enable LEAs to ensure compliance with regulations, while respecting user privacy, and have the capability to trace transactions across various public blockchains.

Objectives:

  1. Exchange Attribute Analysis: The tool should incorporate different attributes of cryptocurrency exchanges to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of transaction tracing.

  2. Graphical Interface and Mapping: A user-friendly graphical interface should be designed to facilitate ease of use for investigators, providing visual representations and mapping of cryptocurrency transactions.

  3. Cross-Blockchain Compatibility: The tool must be capable of tracing transactions across various public blockchains, ensuring a comprehensive approach to cryptocurrency investigation.

  4. Mixer Decoding Capability: Implement advanced algorithms and techniques to decode cryptocurrency mixers and tumblers, unveiling the true transaction history.

  5. Integration with open-source libraries: The cryptocurrency tracing tool should also seamlessly integrate with open-source libraries dedicated to cryptocurrency tracing, such as GraphSense and others.
