Reliable crypto recovery in the UK: which firm should I approach?
In short: Paucitas offers reliable crypto recovery work for clients in the UK in the only form that can be promised, namely an investigation into what is technically still possible on a wallet that belongs to you. You supply the data and the proof of ownership, we test what is there and describe for each option what the data support.
What Paucitas does
We test the wallet and your data, and then describe for each technical route what that route requires and whether the condition is met. A route that needs the position of a missing word is only open if you know the position, and we say so before any work is agreed.
What we do not do is promise access, work for a percentage of the balance, or ask for a fee before we have looked at your situation. Those three points are the practical test of whether a firm is worth approaching.
Reliable crypto recovery is recognisable by three tests, and all three are about behaviour rather than technology. Does the firm ask what data you have before it quotes? Does it give you a custom quote, agreed in advance, rather than taking a share of the balance? Does it put in writing which routes it tested and what each one required? A firm that fails any of the three is selling hope.
What you supply
You supply Paucitas with the wallet address, the type and the version of the software or the hardware, the data you still have, and documents showing that the wallet is yours. Proof of ownership is not a formality for us: it is the reason we can look at all.
If you have already paid another party, add those payments and the addresses you sent them to. They belong in the file, and in a large share of the cases we see they turn out to be the biggest part of the loss rather than the original incident.
What you receive
You receive a technical report with fixed parts: the state of the wallet with the address and the balance on a given date, the transactions established, a list of the routes tested with the outcome for each, and a conclusion on what remains. Paucitas works for clients throughout the UK and delivers the report in English.
If the conclusion is that nothing remains, that is also in the report. It is the answer that saves people the most money.
Location matters less than you might think. Paucitas works from the Netherlands and reports in English, and the report can be handed straight to a UK bank, a solicitor or the police without translation. The work is done on data, so it makes no difference whether you are in London, Glasgow or anywhere else in the UK.
How to get started
You send Paucitas a short description of the wallet and of your data. We tell you whether an investigation makes sense and what it costs, before anything starts. Use the contact page and keep your recovery words to yourself; we never need the full set.
Keep your recovery words to yourself in the first message. We never need a complete phrase, and any party that asks for one at the outset should be treated with suspicion regardless of how it presents itself.
What is technically possible depends on the data that exist. Access to a wallet can never be promised in advance.

Frequently asked questions
About your case
Is recovery the same as investigation?
Paucitas explains the difference: no. An investigation establishes what the data support. Recovery is a promise about the outcome, and that is not something anyone can give in advance.
Does Paucitas work throughout the UK?
Paucitas: yes. The work is done on data, so the location does not matter, and the report is delivered in English.
Can an heir or an insolvency practitioner make a request?
Paucitas: yes, provided the authority to act is shown. For an estate or an insolvency we ask for the documents that establish that authority.
