Detect Hedera (HBAR) Mixer and Tumbler Exposure

Detect direct and indirect HBAR mixer exposure in real time. The free check screens the account against OFAC sanctions data, and it flags an idle account ID as no history. It does not include third-party blacklists for Hedera, so token-service transfers and contract calls still need a look in the public mirror node.

ℏ Hedera · HBAR · Free AML screening

A mixer pattern on Hedera is fan-in followed by fan-out, and the account ID format does not mark it. Many accounts pay one account, which then pays many others in similar amounts over a short window.

Counting fan-in and fan-out

Count the accounts that pay in, and count the accounts that get paid. Short gaps matter. Match the amounts to the tinybar, since 1 HBAR equals 100,000,000 tinybar and HBAR uses 8 decimal places. If an HTS fungible token or an EVM-compatible contract sits in the path, count it too.

Phrasing the pattern

Call the activity pooling, then redistribution. Attach the account IDs, the amounts and the counterparties you resolved. Read that activity off the mirror node, before you name a pattern.
