Recover Your
Lost Crypto
& Digital Assets

What is Wallet Recovery?

Cryptocurrency wallet recovery is the process of restoring access to a digital wallet when the owner has lost their private key, seed phrase, wallet file, or password. Unlike traditional banks, blockchain wallets have no central authority — if you lose access, there's no "forgot password" button. This is where our forensic specialists come in.

Common Scenarios We Handle

• Lost or forgotten seed phrase — Including partial reconstruction using cryptographic permutation methods
• Corrupted or damaged wallet files — wallet.dat corruption, partial file recovery
• Forgotten wallet passwords — Advanced decryption for encrypted wallet files
• Old or abandoned wallets — Wallets created years ago with lost credentials
• Deleted wallet applications — Forensic data recovery from device storage

Supported Networks

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Cardano, Polygon, Avalanche, BNB Chain, and 60+ others. All major wallet clients supported including MetaMask, Exodus, Electrum, Trust Wallet, and more.

How Long Does It Take?

Simple password recovery: 24–72 hours. Complex cases involving partial seed phrases or corrupted files: 5–14 business days. Regular status updates throughout.

What We Can Recover

• Encrypted Bitcoin Core wallet.dat files
• Electrum and MetaMask vault passwords
• Encrypted PDF/ZIP files containing keys
• VeraCrypt and TrueCrypt encrypted containers
• Exchange account passwords (with verification)
• Hardware wallet PINs

Our Technical Approach

• Dictionary Attacks — Domain-specific crypto wordlists built from millions of known patterns
• GPU Cluster Processing — 200+ GPU cluster testing billions of combinations per second
• AI Pattern Recognition — ML models trained to predict likely password variations
• Memory Forensics — Recovering passwords from RAM dumps and browser data

How We Recover Hacked Accounts

• Immediate Blockchain Tracing — Real-time tracking of stolen funds across the blockchain
• Exchange Liaison — Legal team contacts exchanges to request emergency freezes
• Law Enforcement Coordination — Forensic reports for cybercrime units globally
• Account Restoration — Working with platform security teams to reverse unauthorised transactions

Immediate Steps to Take

If you've been hacked right now: (1) Do NOT move any remaining funds. (2) Screenshot all transaction history. (3) Change passwords and enable 2FA. (4) Contact us immediately via WhatsApp.

Scenarios We Handle

• Frozen Accounts — KYC/AML flags at Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Bitfinex and others
• Deceased Account Recovery — Helping estates recover digital assets
• Bankrupt Exchange Claims — FTX, Celsius, Voyager, BlockFi creditor claims
• Identity Verification Issues — Resolving account lockouts from document mismatches
• Disputed Transactions — Initiating disputes for unauthorised transactions

Our Exchange Network

Formal and informal relationships with compliance teams at Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Bitfinex, Bybit, OKX, Gemini, and 30+ regional exchanges.

Common Hardware Issues

• PIN Lockout — Too many failed attempts causing device wipe
• Physical Damage — Water damage, fire, crushing, component failure
• Firmware Corruption — Failed updates causing unresponsive devices
• Display Failure — Screen damage preventing PIN entry

Supported Devices

Ledger Nano S/X/S Plus, Trezor Model One/T/Safe 3, KeepKey, BitBox02, ColdCard, Foundation Passport, NGRAVE Zero, Jade, and more.

Our Process

• Non-Destructive Analysis First — Always start with non-invasive methods
• Chip-Level Extraction — Microcontroller-level data extraction in our cleanroom
• Cryptographic Reconstruction — Reconstruct private keys from extracted data

Recovery Scenarios

• Deleted Wallet Apps — Recovering wallet data from device storage after deletion
• Factory Reset Devices — Data forensics on reset iOS and Android devices
• Broken or Water-Damaged Phones — Chip-off extraction from physically damaged devices

Case 1: $2.1M Bitcoin Recovery

A high-net-worth investor's laptop suffered catastrophic hard drive failure containing 22 BTC. After years of failed attempts, Sentinel Path used chip-level data forensics to recover the complete wallet.dat file and all 22 BTC within 11 days.

Case 2: Exchange Hack — $87,000 Recovered

A business owner's Binance account was compromised via SIM-swap. Within 2 hours we initiated blockchain tracing, identified stolen funds at a major exchange, and coordinated a freeze. $71,000 was returned to the client.

Case 3: Partial Seed Phrase Reconstruction

Water damage destroyed 6 of 24 seed phrase words. Our GPU-accelerated algorithm identified the complete 24-word phrase after 72 hours, restoring access to a wallet containing 8.4 ETH.

Case 4: FTX Bankruptcy Claim

A client with $340,000 on FTX needed full claim management. Sentinel Path filed a comprehensive creditor petition and represented the client in bankruptcy proceedings, achieving a partial recovery payout ahead of schedule.

Case 5: Ledger PIN Lockout

Three incorrect PIN attempts wiped a Ledger Nano X. Our hardware team performed non-destructive internal memory analysis and recovered the seed entropy, restoring 1.6 BTC and $24,000 in altcoins.

How much does recovery cost?

Fees are structured case-by-case depending on complexity and asset value. We provide a full quote after the free initial assessment. You only pay if you choose to proceed.

Is my information safe?

All data is encrypted using AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit. Every team member operates under binding NDA. We are GDPR compliant and follow ISO 27001 standards.

What are my chances of recovery?

It depends on your specific situation. During the free assessment we provide an honest probability estimate. We do not take on cases where recovery is not realistically achievable.

How long does recovery take?

Simple cases: 24–72 hours. Complex cases (hardware forensics, partial seed phrases, exchange litigation): 1–4 weeks. We provide regular updates throughout.

Do you need my full seed phrase?

In most cases, no. We use the minimum information necessary. We will only ever request specific information strictly needed for your case.

What is a SIM-Swap Attack?

An attacker convinces your mobile carrier to transfer your phone number to a SIM they control. With your number, they bypass SMS-based 2FA on exchange accounts, email, and other services — enabling full account takeover within minutes.

Defensive Steps That Actually Work

• Set a SIM Lock PIN with Your Carrier — Mandatory PIN required for any account changes
• Switch to App-Based 2FA — Replace SMS 2FA with Google Authenticator or a YubiKey
• Use a Dedicated Email for Crypto — Secured with a hardware key, used only for exchange accounts
• Remove Your Phone Number from Exchange Accounts — Use authenticator apps instead of SMS

How Partial Recovery Works

BIP39 seed phrases include a checksum — a mathematical verification mechanism. This means not all word combinations are valid, dramatically reducing combinations to test when some words are missing.

• 12-word phrase, 1 missing word — 2,048 combinations. Recoverable in seconds.
• 12-word phrase, 2 missing words — ~4 million combinations. Minutes with our GPU cluster.
• 24-word phrase, 3 missing words — ~8.5 billion valid combinations. Hours to days.

Warning

Never enter your partial seed phrase into any online tool. Scammers specifically target people who have lost seed phrase words. Always verify any recovery service before sharing wallet information.

Why Exchanges Freeze Accounts

• Incomplete KYC/AML identity verification
• Suspicious activity flags from automated systems
• Government or law enforcement requests
• Security holds following detected anomalies
• Tax compliance requests in some jurisdictions

The Escalation Pathway That Works

Standard customer support is usually ineffective. The pathway that works: formal written appeal → compliance department escalation → legal demand letter → regulatory complaint. Sentinel Path handles this professionally using our established exchange relationships.

Water Damage — Act Immediately

DO NOT attempt to power it on. Remove from water, dry the exterior gently, place in silica gel packets. Contact us immediately — water-damaged devices have ~75% recovery success when they reach us without being powered on.

Fire or Heat Damage

Secure element chips in hardware wallets can survive temperatures up to 400°C in many cases. Our lab performs chip-off extraction — physically removing the storage chip from the damaged PCB and reading it directly.

Chip-Off Process

Performed in our ISO-certified cleanroom: non-destructive assessment → micro-soldering chip extraction → custom interface adapter → raw flash memory read → cryptographic key reconstruction.

Fraud · November 2025 · 6 min read

New Attack Types in 2026

• Spear Phishing — Personalised messages using data breach info, mimicking your exchange
• Fake Wallet Popups — Browser extensions injecting fake wallet connection dialogs into DeFi sites
• AI Deepfake Video Calls — Impersonating exchange reps or financial advisors to extract seed phrases
• Discord & Telegram Impersonation — Fake admins offering "wallet sync fixes"

How to Protect Yourself

• Never enter your seed phrase anywhere online — no legitimate service ever needs it
• Bookmark exchange URLs and only access from bookmarks, never email links
• Enable hardware key (YubiKey) authentication on all exchange accounts
• If something feels off — stop and verify independently before proceeding

DeFi · October 2025 · 11 min read

Recovery Pathways After DeFi Exploits

• Attacker Operational Errors — Many exploiters make mistakes allowing real identity tracing
• Funds Move to CEX — When stolen funds reach a centralised exchange, law enforcement subpoenas can freeze them
• White Hat Negotiation — Some exploiters accept bounty negotiations in exchange for returning funds
• DeFi Insurance Claims — If you held Nexus Mutual or InsurAce coverage, you may have a valid claim
