A wallet screening tool runs sanctions, mixer and fraud checks against a crypto address the same way exchange compliance systems do; Plastron is a free, non-custodial screening tool covering seven EVM chains.

Wallet screening has been locked behind enterprise paywalls for years. Chainalysis Reactor starts at tens of thousands per year. Elliptic Lens is priced for compliance teams with budgets. Even basic API access from these providers costs hundreds monthly. Individual users and small businesses have been left without affordable options. The result is a two-tier system: exchanges and institutions have deep visibility into wallet risk, while the actual wallet owners are flying blind. You are expected to comply with AML norms — to not interact with sanctioned addresses, to not accept funds from mixers — but you have had no practical way to check. The enterprise tools that could tell you are priced for corporations, and the free alternatives have been limited to basic Etherscan lookups that tell you nothing about risk. Plastron breaks that barrier. Same screening categories. Same data types. Zero cost.
