KYT (Know Your Transaction) is Dataspike’s automated compliance system for risk-scoring crypto wallet addresses and transactions. It analyzes public blockchain data, fund flows, and entity classifications to detect exposure to money laundering, sanctions, fraud, stolen funds, mixing services, and other illicit activity — before you onboard a customer, credit a deposit, or process a payout. KYT works alongside Dataspike’s KYC and AML Screening products, so you can cover identity verification and transaction risk in a single platform — or use KYT fully standalone.

What you can do today

  • Score any wallet address on Bitcoin, Ethereum, or TRON and get a 0–100% risk score with a full entity-category breakdown.
  • Score a specific transaction by TxID to screen an individual deposit or withdrawal.
  • Screen a specific fund transfer (one sender → recipient pair inside a transaction) via the API — essential for Bitcoin’s UTXO model and multi-party transactions.
  • Download an audit-ready AML PDF report for any check, suitable for AML teams, internal audit, banking partners, and regulators.
  • Browse and search your check history in the dashboard or via the API.
  • Automate everything over REST API — every check available in the dashboard is also available programmatically.
KYT consists of two modules.
Risk Score Wallet — instant, on-demand scoring of addresses and transactions — is live today in both the dashboard and the API.
Transaction Monitoring (continuous address monitoring, alerts, and custom risk profiles) is coming soon.
See Feature availability for the current status of every feature.
