Leading French specialists in crypto-asset investigations, blockchain tracing and arbitration-focused digital forensic analysis.
Complex Digital Investigations for Crypto Disputes
RAID Square is the leading French firm dedicated to complex digital investigations in the crypto-asset environment.
Crypto-asset arbitration rarely turns on a single transaction. It turns on the architecture behind it.
Their work combines deep blockchain tracing capabilities with advanced smart contract analysis to provide courts, arbitral tribunals and counsel with technically rigorous and legally usable evidence.
Core Expertise
Onchain Investigations
Tracing digital asset flows across protocols, exchanges and jurisdictions. Wallet attribution, asset movement reconstruction, counterparty identification and cross-chain analysis designed for arbitration-grade evidentiary standards.
Smart Contract Analysis
Decoding governance structures, vesting schedules, mint and burn mechanics, upgradeability rights and administrative controls embedded within protocol code.
Arbitration Support
Technical investigations tailored for international disputes, expert proceedings, pre-litigation assessments and enforcement strategy support.
Arbitration Meets Blockchain Complexity
Blockchain systems are transparent by design — but transparency alone does not produce clarity. Crypto disputes frequently involve fragmented corporate structures, anonymous wallet systems, evolving smart contracts and rapidly moving digital assets across jurisdictions.
Wallet Attribution
Identifying the entity controlling a wallet address is often the most difficult aspect of a crypto dispute.
Verifiable Evidence
Blockchain records are immutable, but arbitral proceedings require evidence that is structured, interpretable and admissible.
Jurisdictional Complexity
Crypto platforms often operate through layered offshore entities with changing arbitration clauses and shifting legal structures.
Smart Contract Risk
Administrative privileges, governance rights and upgradeability functions embedded in smart contracts can fundamentally alter the economic reality of a dispute.
Shaping the Future of Crypto Arbitration
RAID Square initiated and co-chairs, alongside Professor Mathias Audit, the ICC France ad hoc working group on arbitration and crypto-assets.
The company also organises leading reference events during Paris Arbitration Week, contributing to the development of Paris as a major centre for crypto-related disputes.
Technical Clarity for High-Stakes Crypto Disputes
Where blockchain evidence, smart contracts and international disputes intersect, RAID Square provides the investigative precision required to support defensible legal outcomes.
