How to grasp the intangible

Options
I have an investment in crypto. I have the hash ID, block ID etc and it has been verified multiple times. The issue is I need to find someone  in  crypto who can confirm it's real, and how to cash out. Is there anyone in crypto out there not involved with a scam of some sort, please.

    If you bought it and it is sitting on an exchange can't you just sell it again on the exchange? Or if you keep it in a wallet on your PC (eg I use Exodus) just transfer it to an exchange and sell it.

    However from the way you ask your question I suspect you might have given money to a third party who said they would invest for you. Am I right? If so that would be more concerning.

    This doesn't sound like a standard investment in crypto, so I'm immediately a bit worried for you.

    I invest in crypto and have an account with a reputable exchange (Coinbase), that I can log into, see my holdings and buy/sell & withdraw. It sounds as if you have something quite different - I've never had to concern myself with hashes and block IDs

    As above, it would be worth clarifying exactly what you bought, where you bought it from, and where it is now....

    It sounds like the transaction is real. The question is who owns the wallet that received it. You would normally know if it was yours.

    The hash and block ID will be transactions details. 

    You need the wallet address and private key to own the crypto.
