The UK Insolvency Service has appointed its first crypto intelligence specialist to help recover crypto from bankruptcy and criminal cases.
Andrew Small, a former police investigator with a background in economic crime, will lead efforts to trace and reclaim crypto assets that haven’t been accounted for in those proceedings, according to a June 9 statement from the Insolvency Service.
It comes as the number of crypto-related insolvency cases in the UK has risen by 420% over the last five years, while the estimated value of crypto assets identified in insolvency cases has increased 364 times to 523,580 British pounds ($709,500) over the same time frame.
