Public Security Reveals: 7 Major Technical Methods to Fully Track Virtual Money Transactions
The Technical Means of Public Security in Tracking Virtual Money Transactions
Virtual Money transactions are not completely anonymous. Although addresses are not directly linked to identities, the transaction process is public on the blockchain. Law enforcement can leverage this feature, along with various technological means, to trace transactions and identify suspects.
Common Tracking Methods
By analyzing transaction patterns through blockchain explorers, we can identify common inputs and fund aggregation patterns between addresses. For example, if multiple addresses frequently transfer funds to the same target address, it can be inferred that the same entity controls them. This method is commonly used in cases of Virtual Money pyramid schemes and gambling.
Law enforcement officers can send a cooperation letter to mainstream exchanges to retrieve the suspect's registration information, facial photos, transaction records, wallet addresses, login IPs, and other information. Exchanges may also freeze the suspect's Virtual Money in their accounts upon request.
Each virtual money transaction requires a fee. By tracing the source of the fee, the exchange account can be locked. The transaction hash provides detailed information about the transaction, including the sender and receiver addresses, transaction amount, and more.
Analyze the login IP and device ID of the exchange or wallet, associate the operational behavior of multiple addresses, and thereby lock the target.
Track the fund transfer path through the transaction hash of the cross-chain bridge. Use on-chain fingerprint technology to identify the input and output addresses of the mixer.
Law enforcement agencies may request stablecoin issuers to freeze funds in the involved addresses or engage in international cooperation with other countries.
Starting from the export of Virtual Money to fiat currency, trace the identities of upstream criminals.
High-frequency, large amount quick in-and-out trading will be regarded as suspicious address.
Conclusion
Many criminals mistakenly believe that Virtual Money transactions are completely anonymous or think that cross-border investigations are difficult. However, this kind of wishful thinking will ultimately only lead them into deeper trouble. As law enforcement agencies deepen their understanding of Virtual Money, their tracking and analysis capabilities are also continuously improving. Even if criminals adopt various evasion tactics, they will ultimately find it difficult to escape legal sanctions.
