BTC Forensics

Bitcoin Transaction Forensics  Intelligence Guide

by InsAIghts

A hands-on reference tool for analysts, investigators, and curious Bitcoiners who want to read the blockchain like an expert.

Six confirmed main-net transactions walk you through the on-chain fingerprints that matter most; Lightning channel opens, cooperative and force closes, time locked HTLCs, multisig custody patterns, and CoinJoin mixing (Whirlpool, Wasabi 2.x, and JoinMarket). Every TXID links directly to blockstream.info so you can follow along in a real explorer.

Not sure what a term means? The OSINT Ninja is watching. Hover or tap any dotted technical term and a plain-English decoder card appears instantly, no tab-switching, no Googling, no losing your place. A full searchable glossary is one click away for when you want to go deeper.

Built for both beginners and experienced practitioners. Fingerprint highlights call out primary signals, analyst warnings, and useful context at a glance, so you spend less time wondering what you're looking at and more time following the money.
