What is AML screening for NEAR?
AML (Anti-Money Laundering) screening for NEAR 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.
NEAR Protocol uses human-readable account names (like 'alice.near') in addition to cryptographic addresses. AML screening must handle both address formats.
Key risk signals for NEAR wallets

- 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
