ChainWise vs. recovery scams
After the first scam, victims are often targeted again by fake "recovery" firms. Here's how to tell the difference.
Cryptographically signed reports
Every ChainWise forensic report carries a SHA-256 manifest, HMAC signature, and public verification ID. Independently auditable — accepted by exchanges, banks, and courts.
