Crypto Scanner
Screen crypto wallet addresses on Bitcoin and major EVM networks against current official sanctions data and known on-chain risk signals. AML wallet screening that supports DFSA- and VARA-aligned compliance workflows in the UAE.
What we check
Screening runs at three depths: Regular, Enhanced and Pro. Capabilities marked Enhanced or Pro are included from that depth. Contact us to match the depth to your compliance obligations.
Official Sanctions Screening
Check current official sanctions data for exact address matches.
Mixer Detection
Identify addresses linked to known mixers, tumblers, and privacy services. Flag high-risk transaction patterns.
Known-risk Intelligence
Surface normalized indicators for known scams, exploits and other wallet risks.
Direct Transaction Evidence
Every signal is backed by a transaction hash and counterparty address you can verify directly on the block explorer.
Wallet Activity Summary
Native balance, token holdings and transaction history summarized directly from on-chain data.
Explainable Signals
Every flag includes severity and supporting evidence. No opaque score, just what was found.
Multi-List Sanctions Coverage
Enhanced screenings check addresses against UK, EU, UN and UAE official sanctions lists alongside the primary sanctions data, with per-list freshness reported in coverage.
Ransomware Address Intelligence
Bitcoin addresses and their direct counterparties are matched against thousands of confirmed ransomware payment addresses, so extortion-linked wallets surface before funds move.
Exposure & Entity Analysis
Pro screenings add entity clustering and multi-hop exposure analysis, gated by materiality thresholds so incidental dust-level exposure does not trigger false flags.
Supported Blockchains
Screen addresses across Bitcoin and five verified EVM networks.
Checks that only exist on EVM chains, such as smart-contract analysis, are marked not applicable on Bitcoin rather than silently skipped.
Industry Use Cases
Screen counterparty wallets before processing trades. Sanctions checks, mixer/exploit signals, and a full evidence trail for every deposit and withdrawal support DFSA- and VARA-aligned compliance workflows.
Evaluate crypto-related clients during onboarding. Screen wallet addresses linked to bank accounts for sanctions exposure and known risk signals, with a re-screen available any time.
Support fraud investigations with wallet screening and direct on-chain evidence. Every signal ties back to a transaction hash and counterparty address for the case file.
Screen wallet addresses for fintech apps with crypto integrations. Sanctions checks and mixer/exploit signals for digital payment and DeFi platforms.
Screen crypto-related license applicants in DIFC, ADGM, and other free zones. Wallet screening and sanctions checks for regulatory compliance and license issuance.
Audit crypto holdings and wallet portfolios for compliance. Verify on-chain data against declared assets, screen addresses for risk, and generate audit-ready reports.

What does wallet screening cover?
A screened wallet address is checked against current official sanctions data, plus normalized mixer, exploit/hack and direct one-hop transaction indicators, for AML and VARA-aligned compliance review.
Does it replace a compliance decision?
No. It produces a defensible first-pass triage report with coverage checks and evidence. Reviewing, deciding and documenting the outcome stays with your compliance team.
Does it verify source of funds or KYC?
No. It reports known on-chain signals only. Source-of-funds, source-of-wealth conclusions and KYC still require compliance review and supporting documents.
Which chains are covered?
Bitcoin, Ethereum, Base, Optimism, Arbitrum One and Polygon in the current version. Additional chains are added only after their data coverage is verified.
How is screening output recorded?
As a structured, bounded JSON report with coverage checks and warnings. It is downloadable and available in your recent-reports history for audit purposes.
Does it cover Bitcoin?
Yes. Bitcoin addresses are screened against current official sanctions data and analyzed from on-chain activity, alongside the five supported EVM networks. EVM-only checks, such as smart-contract analysis, are reported as not applicable on Bitcoin rather than silently skipped.
Can I use it as a crypto AML check?
Yes, for the on-chain part. Wallet screening against official sanctions data and known risk signals covers the address-screening step of an AML program. Customer identification, source-of-funds review and the final decision remain with your compliance team.
Does it produce a risk score?
No. Each screening returns explicit signals with severity, evidence and coverage checks instead of a single opaque number. A reviewer can trace every flag to a transaction hash or a list match, which is what an auditor or regulator will ask for.
What screening depths are available?
Three. Regular covers official sanctions matching and on-chain activity analysis. Enhanced adds UK, EU, UN and UAE official sanctions lists and confirmed ransomware-address intelligence. Pro adds entity clustering and multi-hop exposure analysis. Contact us to match the depth to your obligations.
