Overview

Screens a cryptocurrency address against the US OFAC sanctions lists and returns every active list entry that matches, with the sanctioned party’s name, type and sanctions programs.
Lists are refreshed hourly from OFAC’s publication stream, so a new designation appears within an hour of publication. Delisted addresses are never reported as sanctioned.
Any digital-currency address OFAC publishes is accepted: Ethereum and other EVM chains (0x...), Bitcoin, Litecoin, Monero, Tron, XRP and more. ENS names are resolved to their Ethereum address first. Matching is exact on the address value, ignoring case. To also screen who the address has dealt with, use Sanctions Exposure.
