Blockchain analytics tracing 330+ chains for crypto AML, sanctions screening, and investigations.
Crystal Expert Overview
What it does
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.
How it works
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.
Credentials and traction
Crystal Expert holds ISO 27001:2022 certification, independently audited by BSI in 2024, alongside GDPR-aligned EU-based data governance. It won RegTech and Compliance Project of the Year at the 2024 FSTech Awards and was named Best Blockchain Analytics Solution at the 2025 Middle East Blockchain Awards, adding Excellence in Web3 Compliance at the 2025 Web3 & Digital Assets Markets Awards. In 2025 the DIFC Courts named Crystal a permitted blockchain intelligence provider for digital asset litigation. It is used by banks, crypto exchanges, regulators, and law enforcement agencies.
Key Capabilities
mapped to solution categoriesTraces 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.
