A wallet screening tool built for EU CASPs

What a wallet screening tool needs to do

Screening a crypto wallet for AML is more than a single list lookup. To defend a decision to a supervisor, a CASP needs to know three things about an address: whether it is directly sanctioned, how exposed it is to illicit sources it does not directly touch, and who the counterparty behind it is. Ichnos answers all three in one request and records the answer.

Entity + wallet in one check

Pure chain-analytics vendors screen the address; name-screening tools screen the entity. Running both means two tools, two records and two invoices. Ichnos screens the counterparty and the wallet together — one request, one risk picture, one report — powered by our own PEP/sanctions entity engine. It is the differentiator the chain-only tools bolt on badly, or not at all.

Sanctions & illicit-cluster exposure

Wallets are matched against the OFAC SDN and EU consolidated lists, and each result shows how many hops the wallet sits from a listed address. Every match carries a certainty tier and the reason it scored — see crypto sanctions screening for the detail.

Self-serve credits, no procurement cycle

Sign up, run your free trial checks, and top up when you are ready — no sales call, no seats, no minimums. You hold a credit balance and spend one credit per check; monthly plans include a bundle of credits and you can add top-up packs any time. Your first screening and report can be minutes away, not a procurement project.

API & webhooks for inline screening

On the Growth and Scale plans, screen a wallet or counterparty inline in your onboarding or transfer flow and get the result and report back programmatically — so screening is a step in your process, not a manual detour. This is what makes the tool fit Travel Rule unhosted-wallet verification at the point of transfer.
