Lawful Operation & No "Hack-Back" Policy

Blockchain Investigative Agency™ (BIA) provides analytical and support services strictly within the limits of applicable international law. We operate purely through on-chain data forensics, open-source intelligence (OSINT), and legal collaboration. We do not encourage, facilitate, or participate in unlawful access, "hacking back" operations, coercion, fraud, money laundering, unauthorized asset movement, or any other illegal cyber activity.

Not a Financial Institution

Blockchain Investigative Agency™ is an independent forensic consultancy. We are not a bank, payment institution, virtual asset service provider (VASP), broker, investment firm, asset manager, insurer, law firm, or government authority. We do not hold, custody, manage, transfer, exchange, invest, or trade client funds. We will never ask you to transfer digital assets to us for "safekeeping" or "verification".

No Investment, Legal, Tax, or Financial Advice

Website content, intelligence reports, and direct communications are provided for informational and service-assessment purposes only. They do not constitute financial, investment, trading, tax, legal, accounting, or regulatory advice. While we structure our reports to assist legal teams, clients should consult qualified independent professionals (attorneys, CPAs) for advice specific to their jurisdictional circumstances.

No Guarantee of Recovery or Profit

Due to the decentralized nature of digital assets, we strictly do not guarantee cryptocurrency recovery. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee the unfreezing of accounts, law-enforcement intervention, exchange compliance response, chargebacks, compensation, or any specific financial outcome. Results depend heavily on evidentiary facts, speed of reporting, counterparties, third-party exchange policies, jurisdictional bandwidth of authorities, and other external factors entirely outside of our control.

Blockchain and Market Risks

Digital assets are highly volatile, and blockchain transactions are cryptographically irreversible. Public blockchain data may be incomplete, pseudonymous, obfuscated by privacy mixers (e.g., Tornado Cash), or subject to analytical interpretation. Any forensic analysis is based exclusively on the data available at the time of the review and may change as new on-chain activity occurs or new intelligence becomes accessible.

Reports and Evidence Packages

Our analytical reports, chronological timelines, wallet cluster maps, cross-chain transaction traces, and evidentiary packages are meticulously prepared to support client understanding and facilitate possible legal or institutional escalation. However, they do not guarantee that a cryptocurrency exchange, law-enforcement body (e.g., FBI, Europol), or any other third party will accept, prioritize, or act upon the provided materials.

Client Responsibility & Security

Clients remain solely responsible for decisions made based on our website content, consultations, reports, or communications. BIA™ emphasizes strict operational security. Never share your seed phrases, private keys, mnemonic phrases, or account passwords with anyone, including our staff. Our analysts only require public wallet addresses and transaction hashes (TXID) to conduct investigations.
