What is checked
Analysis tools track which addresses a cryptocurrency has passed through. Connections to fraud, darknet markets, hacked exchanges, or sanctioned addresses increase the risk score.
Online and cash: different situations
With online exchange, the check runs after receipt of the cryptocurrency. With cash OTC from 5,000 USDC/USDT, it is scheduled into the appointment – you send the cryptocurrency only during the meeting.
What happens in case of increased risk
Depending on the result, proof of origin may be requested, such as bank statements or exports from an exchange. If the risk is high, the swap may be rejected. Requirements may differ depending on the country and legal framework.
How you are prepared
