Crypto address AML check

AML (Anti-Money Laundering) is a check of a crypto address or transaction for links to fraud, darknet, stolen funds and sanctions. It reduces the risk of receiving "dirty" coins and getting funds frozen.

When to do it

  • before receiving a large crypto amount;
  • before exchanging crypto to cash/bank;
  • if the counterparty is unknown.

How to check

An AML check is done via blockchain analysis services: you enter an address and get a risk report. An address analysis tool is available on BestChange and a number of other services.
