Pre-deal · go / no-go

Pre-Transaction Check

A fast, preventive screen of the sender and their funds before you accept a crypto payment. You get one thing: a clear go/no-go verdict on the sender’s address — with the reasoning — before the money lands on your wallet and becomes your problem.

Whitelisted only — not a guarantee, not a legal opinion. This is a preventive check of the sender before you receive the funds, so you don’t catch a freeze or a risk score from someone else’s dirt. We don’t help launder the acceptance of knowingly dirty money — on a red verdict we recommend declining.

The verdict

A clear traffic light

Accept

The sender and inflow look clean.

Accept with conditions

OK within limits — e.g. amount cap, extra payer documents.

Don’t accept

Sanctioned, criminal or heavily dirty inflow.

Why our approach

Fast, preventive, explicit

Speed: an express verdict in hours, not days — because the decision to accept a payment is often needed now.

Preventive: we check BEFORE you receive — not untangle a freeze afterwards (that’s a separate service).

The same engine as an investigation — labels × behaviour × known-evil screening — in a fast format.

An explicit traffic-light verdict instead of a vague “looks ok”.

Who it’s for

Anyone about to be paid in crypto

Sellers

Selling a car, property or goods for USDT and want to vet the payer first.

Businesses & freelancers

Accepting crypto for services and can’t afford a frozen account.

OTC desks

Screening a counterparty’s address before settling a trade.

How we work

Eight stages, intake to verdict (E0–E7)

An express verdict takes hours (same or next business day); a deep check across many addresses and hops takes 1–2 days.

E0

Intake & express scoring

What’s the deal, the sender address, amount, urgency? A first on-chain look for an obvious stop-factor; we set express or deep.

E1

Deal inputs

The sender address(es), asset and network, amount, and context: what’s being paid for, how you know the counterparty, which channel.

E2

Pull sender data

Via TronGrid: the address profile (balance, age) and its full USDT transfer history, normalised.

E3

Attribution & known-evil screening

Key addresses run through labels (TronScan, Arkham, our DB) and checked against OFAC (TRON), the Tether blacklist and AML checkers.

E4

Behaviour & exposure

Address type (personal / exchange / mover / mixer / scam), the share of flagged inflow, walking back 2–3 hops from large or flagged sources.

E5

Context reconciliation

Does the on-chain match your story — amount, timing, purpose? Any sign the money comes “from the wrong place” or of counterparty pressure.

E6

Verdict & opinion

We set the traffic light and, for yellow, the acceptance conditions — amount cap, splitting, extra payer documents.

E7

Hand-over & DB update

We deliver the verdict, explain conditions and acceptance hygiene, and record the sender’s labels and observations.

The deliverable

One readable verdict

  • The verdict on the first line — so you can decide immediately.
  • Who the sender is by labels and behaviour, with confidence levels.
  • Sanctions and criminal-link screening (OFAC, Tether blacklist, AML).
  • Where the inflow comes from and what share of it is dirty — plus conditions if yellow.
Honest limits. The blockchain gives a probabilistic picture of the past, not a guarantee of the future — we don’t claim funds are “100% clean.” Each verdict has a human behind it and an honest confidence level, and the final decision to accept or decline stays with you.

Where we stop

Cases we decline at intake

Wanting “cover”

Accepting knowingly dirty or criminal money and making it look verified.

Faking the verdict

Asking us to fake the result or remove and hide red flags we found.

No sender address

With no access to the sender’s address there is nothing to check — we can only warn about the risks.
