Executive Summary

BlockDivers, a Miami-based leader in forensic blockchain investigations and digital asset recovery, partners with AnChain.ai to accelerate complex crypto investigations and support active law-enforcement recoveries.

Challenge

Crypto fraud cases increasingly employ sophisticated laundering techniques—mixers, intermediary wallets, chain hopping, and timed delays—to obscure fund flows. BlockDivers needed to:

Trace assets across multiple blockchains at speed
Reduce analyst time spent on manual graphing and review
Produce defensible forensic reports suitable for law enforcement and regulatory actions
Scale capacity to handle more cases without sacrificing rigor

‍

Solution: AnChain.AI

BlockDivers integrated AnChain.ai as a core investigative platform, leveraging:

AI Auto-Tracing: Rapid, multi-hop tracing across chains, mixers, and DeFi pathways
Behavioral & Entity Intelligence: Automated identification of exchanges, services, and risk signals
Visual Investigation Graphs: Clear, explainable flow diagrams for analysts and stakeholders
AI-Assisted Reporting: Faster generation of structured, evidentiary-grade forensic reports

‍

Results

40%+ faster blockchain tracing compared to prior workflows
Significant reduction in manual review time, freeing analysts for higher-value work
Millions of dollars traced over the last 12 months, including multiple active law-enforcement recoveries
Higher case throughput, enabling BlockDivers to help more victims and partners

Case Highlight: Tracing Stolen Assets to a Major Global Exchange

In a recent investigation, as in the press release, BlockDivers successfully traced over $2.4M USD in misappropriated digital assets through more than a dozen blockchain hops—despite the use of mixers, intermediary wallets, and deliberate delays. Using AnChain.ai’s AI-powered tracing and analytics, the team identified the final destination wallet associated with a leading global exchange, and produced a detailed forensic report documenting wallet addresses, transaction hashes, and timestamps. The findings enabled formal KYC/AML information requests and supported ongoing law-enforcement actions toward recovery.
