The article presents an analysis of the procedures for arresting cryptocurrencies in various national legal systems, emphasizing the relevance of this topic in light of the rapid development of the digital economy and the increase in crimes related to cryptocurrencies. It draws attention to the absence of a unified international approach to regulating and controlling cryptocurrency assets, which creates challenges for law enforcement agencies in combating crime and money laundering. By analyzing the legislation of different countries, various approaches to defining the status of cryptocurrencies, mechanisms of their arrest, and their use as evidence in criminal proceedings have been identified. Special attention is given to the comparative analysis of the procedural aspects of cryptocurrency arrest, which allows for the identification of best practices and the development of recommendations for improving criminal procedural legislation. Solutions to the practical problems of jurisdiction and technical aspects of executing arrest decisions are proposed, emphasizing the importance of international cooperation in this field.
