Tracking Asset Theft and Risk Analysis

In November 2022, Shen Bo, founder of Distributed Capital, lost approximately $42M in a personal wallet, including 38M USDC. Since then, the team has continuously conducted on-chain transaction monitoring, crypto compliance checks, and AML procedures to map asset flows. With AI-driven data analytics and cross-platform collaboration, risk detection has significantly improved, increasing the likelihood of asset recovery.

Reward Program for Valuable Leads

Distributed Capital now publicly requests leads and offers a reward: contributors to asset recovery can earn 10%–20% of recovered funds. This approach mobilizes security experts, KYT analytics, and research teams worldwide, accelerating recovery while strengthening transaction monitoring and crypto compliance enforcement.

Trustformer KYT Enhances On-Chain Security

Using Trustformer KYT, the team monitors wallet transactions in real time, identifies high-risk addresses and suspicious activity, and freezes funds to prevent further losses. Combined with AML and risk detection, approximately $1.2M in assets has been frozen, with rewards distributed according to contribution.

Summary

Integrating Trustformer KYT on-chain tracking, AI analytics, transaction monitoring, and AML compliance provides fast response, minimizes risk, and ensures efficient asset recovery, safeguarding investors and the blockchain ecosystem.
