AML screening checks a crypto wallet's transaction history against sanctions lists and known illicit-activity databases to flag risk before an exchange does; Plastron's instant check runs free with no signup, and a free account unlocks the full result.
AML Screening for Your Crypto Wallet
Know what your wallet has touched before an exchange decides for you.
Exchanges run AML checks on every deposit. If your wallet has interacted with a sanctioned address — even indirectly — your funds can be frozen for months. The problem? Most people have no idea what their wallet history looks like from a compliance perspective. You might have received ETH from a mixer two hops away and never known. You might have traded on a DEX that routed through a flagged contract. These things happen in DeFi every single day, and by the time an exchange flags your deposit, the damage is already done. Plastron gives you the same lens that compliance teams use, so you can check before they do.
AML screening: how the scan works
Sanctions & Watchlist Matching
We cross-reference your wallet against the OFAC SDN list, known mixer contracts, stolen fund addresses, and over 3,800 flagged entities. Direct hits and indirect exposure are both surfaced with severity ratings so you understand the real risk picture.
One-Hop Exposure Analysis
Plastron maps your direct counterparties and flags any connections to high-risk entities. You get a clear breakdown of which addresses you have sent to or received from that carry sanctions, mixer, or exploit exposure — with volume and recency data.
Instant, Free Results
Paste any address for an instant risk read in under 30 seconds — no account, no credit card, ever. The full AML report — counterparty breakdown and all six risk categories — unlocks with a free account. The scan is read-only and non-custodial; we never touch your private keys or request transaction signing.
