It will focus on its methods and review the extent to which artificial intelligence and machine language can be relied upon in forensics on the dark web. The chapter identified the need to address several areas of digital cryptocurrency forensics, in which gaps can be filled by developing advanced solutions for cryptocurrency forensics. Further investigation is required in digital forensics concerning significant cryptocurrencies like Monero, Ethereum, Verge, Dogecoin, and others. This is necessary because these currencies are becoming increasingly popular among both legitimate users and evil individuals. The survey highlighted another research gap: the limited amount of substantial research on host-based cryptocurrency forensics, particularly in mobile-based cryptocurrency forensics.

It underscores the pressing need for immediate and extensive research in digital cryptocurrency forensics, especially for significant cryptocurrencies increasingly attracting legitimate and malicious users. The chapter also highlights a critical gap in research on host-based cryptocurrency forensics, particularly mobile-based forensics. Most studies on host-based forensics concentrate on outdated operating systems or platforms, highlighting the necessity for more current versions, and the urgency of updating your methods in host-based forensics is apparent. Cryptocurrency forensics primarily involves the analysis of publicly accessible blockchains using clustering heuristics and machine learning-based analysis to identify anonymous entities or provide investigation guidance. Security and vulnerability assessment studies are crucial in examining forensic methods for cryptocurrencies, offering insights into potential exploits.

It also explores using artificial intelligence and machine learning in dark web forensics. The descriptive-analytical method highlights the need for urgent research in digital cryptocurrency forensics, particularly in significant cryptocurrencies such as Monero, Ethereum, Verge, and Dogecoin, which are gaining popularity among legitimate and malicious users. The study also highlights a critical gap: the need for substantial research on host-based cryptocurrency forensics, especially mobile-based forensics. Most studies on host-based forensics focus on outdated operating systems or platforms, underscoring the need for research on more current versions. Security and vulnerability assessment studies are paramount for examining forensic methods for cryptocurrencies, as they can provide insights into potential exploits or attacks that can be instrumental in forensic investigations.
