Asset Reimbursement

Definition

Asset reimbursement refers to the process of returning lost or stolen digital holdings to their rightful owners. This action typically follows a security incident, such as a hack or system failure, where a platform or custodian commits to compensating users. Such procedures often involve complex forensic analysis and may be subject to specific terms, conditions, or legal frameworks governing digital asset recovery. The objective is to restore user capital, mitigating financial impact from unforeseen adverse events within the digital economy.
