Blockchains
How each chain works, which coins live on it, and how far stolen funds can be followed.
B
- Bitcoin (BTC)
- The first cryptocurrency. Bitcoin itself cannot be frozen in a wallet, but it can be traced to exchanges that can.
E
- Ethereum (ETH)
- The biggest blockchain for tokens and apps. Its design is shared by 60+ other 'EVM' chains, which we trace the same way.
M
- Monero (XMR)
- A privacy coin built to hide who paid whom. When stolen funds reach Monero, the trail goes cold.
S
- Solana (SOL)
- A very fast blockchain popular for trading new tokens. USDC and USDT on Solana can be frozen by their issuers.
T
- Tron (TRX)
- A low-fee blockchain best known for USDT transfers, and the chain used most in crypto scams.
