Blockchain analysis
In short: Examination of ledger data and related evidence to study transactions, relationships or attribution.
Examination of ledger data and related evidence to study transactions, relationships or attribution. An address association needs context and should not be presented as automatic proof of identity or guilt. Analysis can combine public transaction patterns with information obtained elsewhere. Its conclusions depend on the evidence and method. Distinguish a recorded transfer, an inferred relationship and an attributed identity rather than treating all three as equally direct observations or assuming wrongdoing from association.
