Plastron is a free, non-custodial alternative to Chainalysis for individuals: it screens a wallet for sanctions, mixer, scam and stolen-fund links on 10 chains, with full exposure analysis on 7 EVM chains, without the enterprise contract, license or signup.
Chainalysis Alternative for Individual Wallet Screening
Chainalysis charges enterprises tens of thousands per year. Plastron provides individual wallet AML screening for free.
Chainalysis is the most widely recognized blockchain analytics firm in the industry — their KYT product is used by hundreds of cryptocurrency exchanges, and their Reactor investigation tool is standard equipment for law enforcement agencies globally. Chainalysis pricing is designed for institutional buyers: enterprise contracts start at tens of thousands of dollars per year, making their tools inaccessible for individual users who want to screen their own wallets. The information asymmetry this creates is significant: the compliance teams at Binance, Coinbase, and Kraken can see your wallet's risk profile through their Chainalysis subscription, but you cannot see the same view of yourself. Plastron closes that gap for individual wallet holders. While Plastron does not match the depth of Chainalysis Reactor's multi-hop investigation capabilities or TRM Labs' cross-chain coverage, it covers the core risk signals that matter most for individual compliance: OFAC sanctions screening (updated weekly from the same Treasury XML source Chainalysis uses), mixer exposure detection, stolen fund tracing from Forta's labelled datasets, and phishing and scam address coverage from CryptoScamDB. For an individual checking their own wallet before depositing to an exchange, Plastron provides the essential first-line screening that Chainalysis provides to its enterprise customers — at zero cost.
How we approach chainalysis alternative
OFAC SDN Screening — Same Source, Free Access
Plastron and Chainalysis both source OFAC SDN data from the US Treasury's official XML feed. Our prebuild pipeline refreshes the data weekly, ensuring the sanctions screening in your Plastron report reflects the same underlying data that enterprise tools use. For the most critical compliance check — direct OFAC exposure — the result is equivalent regardless of which tool performs it.
Mixer and Stolen Fund Coverage
Plastron's mixer detection covers the Tornado Cash contracts, Railgun and other labelled mixing protocols. Stolen fund coverage draws from Forta labelled-datasets with 668 exploit and heist addresses. Combined with CryptoScamDB's 2,421 phishing and fraud addresses, the coverage addresses the major risk categories without requiring an enterprise subscription.
