Why taxonomy matters for SEO and for your case
Google rewards pages that satisfy search intent with specificity. Victims rarely type “crypto recovery” alone—they type long queries like “ethereum sent to scam wallet can I get back” or “exchange frozen withdrawal compliance.” By mapping each loss type to a dedicated resource, we mirror how people search and how investigators triage cases. Internally, that same mapping ensures we assign the right tooling: graph analytics for multi-hop theft, policy expertise for custodial freezes, and narrative plus chain alignment for fraud referrals.
