Cross-chain bridges move value between networks and can obscure simple same-chain clustering. Fraud trails that use bridges need identifiers from both sides of each hop.
Capture source-chain TXIDs, destination-chain TXIDs, bridge contract addresses, amounts and timestamps. Screenshots of the bridge UI help if explorers show incomplete metadata.
Some bridges maintain operator or relayer infrastructure that may hold logs. Whether those logs are obtainable depends on architecture and jurisdiction.
Explain bridge hops clearly in any institutional notice. Compliance teams unfamiliar with the path need a plain-language map alongside raw hashes.
