Not much to go on here. Doubt many will jump in to help. Plus, a lot of folks here aren't really into blockchain analysis. Maybe try a pro service like Chainalysis? It’ll cost you though.

So you’re after old private keys? Are you looking for help to recover a wallet or just info about private keys for an old account? If the bitcoins are still in the hacker's wallet and untouched, check out walletexplorer.com or contact a blockchain analyst. Posting your TX ID could help too.

Walletexplorer kinda sucks for tracking now. The database hasn't been updated in ages. The founder moved on to Chainalysis, so if the hacker’s wallet isn’t spending the funds with other coins, Walletexplorer won’t be of much use. And good luck getting names for those new hot wallet addresses.

True, the blockchain analysis services might connect the dots, but if you’re not using coin control, they won't find out much. I agree, the results can be sketchy. Do they at least update their data occasionally or just use it for some other purpose?

Yeah, a developer mentioned it won’t be free. Chainalysis is one option, but there are others like Elliptic, CipherTrace, or Coinfirm. They’re all pay services.

If you want basic tagging of known exchange addresses, I’ve got a few suggestions. Check out oklink.com, oxt.me, and breadcrumbs.app. For grouping non-exchange addresses, oxt.me has some features in their relations tab.
