What is AML screening for Cosmos?
AML (Anti-Money Laundering) screening for Cosmos wallets checks transaction history against databases of known bad actors: OFAC-sanctioned addresses, darknet markets, ransomware payment wallets, scam contracts, and mixing services. Exchanges and financial institutions are legally required to screen crypto wallets before processing transactions.
Cosmos addresses are chain-specific despite sharing the same bech32 format. A 'cosmos1' address is for the Cosmos Hub; other chains use different prefixes (osmo1, juno1, etc.).
Key risk signals for Cosmos wallets
IBC (Inter-Blockchain Communication) transfers between Cosmos chains can be used to obscure fund origins. Cross-chain IBC routing is tracked in comprehensive AML analysis.
- OFAC sanctions — direct listing or exposure to SDN-listed addresses
- Darknet markets — funds received from or sent to illegal marketplace addresses
- Mixer / tumbler exposure — use of privacy or obfuscation services
- Ransomware — connections to known ransomware payment addresses
- Exchange hacks — funds originating from stolen exchange wallets
