Blockchain Analytics

Crystal Expert Overview

Crystal Expert is a blockchain intelligence and crypto compliance platform that traces the flow of digital assets and links pseudonymous wallet activity to real-world entities. Its distinguishing mechanism is a hybrid attribution model that pairs automated address clustering with human-verified entity attribution, enriched by off-chain intelligence gathered in high-risk jurisdictions through the acquired Scam Alert database. The result combines on-chain transaction data with ground-level intelligence rather than relying on clustering heuristics alone.

The platform covers more than 330 blockchains and 10,000 digital assets, mapping cross-chain transfers in a single visualization graph with real-world entity labels. Wallets are scored using two methods: pre-assigned risk for attributed entities such as exchanges and darknet markets, and real-time behavioral scoring for unattributed addresses, with tunable thresholds. Transactions are screened against OFAC, EU, UN, and DOJ watchlists refreshed every fifteen minutes, supported by more than 300 configurable rule sets. Built-in case management lets compliance teams draft suspicious activity report narratives, escalate to a Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO), and export audit-ready evidence through goAML.

ISO 27001:2022 certified with EU-based data governance and GDPR compliance, Crystal Expert is used by banks, crypto exchanges, regulators, and law enforcement agencies including the Antwerp Federal Police Computer Crime Unit. The DIFC Courts approved Crystal as an official blockchain intelligence provider for digital asset litigation, and the platform has won the FSTech RegTech Award and Best Blockchain Analytics at the Regulation Asia Awards. Tether holds a strategic investment in the company.

Key Capabilities

mapped to solution categories
Blockchain Analytics

Traces fund flows across blockchain transactions and addresses, clustering related addresses and following transactions through mixers, exchanges, and cross-chain bridges.

Scores blockchain addresses by association with known illicit activity (ransomware wallets, sanctioned entities, dark market operators) using on-chain attribution data.

Supports transaction tracing and risk scoring across Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other Layer-1 networks. Coverage of non-EVM chains (Solana, Tron, Monero) is a primary differentiator.

Generates SAR-ready transaction monitoring reports and FATF Travel Rule compliance documentation for regulated virtual asset service providers.
