Abstract: This chapter helps the corporate, law enforcement, and other investigators to learn how to find and then acquire cryptocurrency keys in a variety of situations. It shows how to approach premises searches, what to look for, how to find known addresses online, and how to search for addresses in downloaded websites. The chapter looks at how to find addresses on acquired hard drives and computer memory as well as how the investigator can work on a live running computer and find and extract addresses in that environment. Computers and mobile devices are routinely seized during the course of almost any type of investigation. Before the investigator can start any investigation to follow transactions on a blockchain, investigator need to locate evidence of cryptocurrency use and then find the addresses or private keys that are being used by a suspect.
