description The article is devoted to studying the problems of recording electronic evidence in criminal proceedings regarding crimes committed in Ukraine using cryptocurrencies, which is relevant in view of the significant spread and use of cryptocurrencies and crimes committed through their use. During the study, the methods of system analysis and technical-legal analysis were employed, alongside the formal-logical method. The shortcomings in the legal regulation of the investigation of crimes committed using cryptocurrencies were highlighted. Practical recommendations have been developed for involving experts in the fields of computer technologies, programming, and information security in the recording of electronic evidence in criminal proceedings concerning crimes committed with the use of cryptocurrencies. The requirements for recording electronic evidence while investigating crimes committed using cryptocurrencies (virtual assets) are formulated. In particular, the need to copy, archive and hash files is specified. The use of appropriate software is suggested. The practical significance of the study is that the obtained results can be used by operatives, investigators, prosecutors and detectives during the investigation of crimes of the studied category, as well as during further scientific research on the specified topic.
