The Data

Every dataset behind this site, as JSON and CSV, with its source, its licence and its size. No key, no account, no rate limit.

This site is built by a data engine, and the engine’s output is more useful to more people than the pages made from it. If you are researching, reporting or building, take the files. If you publish something from them, the licence for each set is stated below — one of the three asks for credit and the other two do not.

OFAC-designated cryptocurrency addresses

961 addresses

Every address OFAC publishes as a digital-currency identifier, with its designations, party types and sanctions programmes. Read directly from Treasury, with the source file's SHA-256 recorded. Browsable at /sanctioned, and each address has its own citable page. Designated individuals are recorded by party type only — their names are on the record page, in the context of the specific act, and are deliberately absent from bulk export.

Official reporting routes by country

45 countries

Where to report a cryptocurrency fraud, the financial regulator, and the official register of lawyers, per country. Every link carries a grade recording how it was checked — the checking is the work here, not the collecting. Anything we could not reach is absent, with a note in its place.

What Is Not Here, and Why

The harvested headlines. We hold over a thousand items from 58official and trade sources, and we are not going to publish them as a file. A headline is the publisher’s own text; this archive is lawful because it links and attributes rather than because it copies, and a bulk download would be redistributing their writing. The searchable archive is the honest form of it — every item names its source and links to the original.

The frozen and blacklisted addresses. The wallet check covers roughly twelve thousand addresses, of which the OFAC designations above are the subset we publish. The rest come from issuer blacklists, and a bulk list of them would read as our characterisation of parties nobody has designated. They stay inside a lookup that runs in your browser.

Anything we have not verified.There is no dataset of alleged scam companies, alleged scam domains or recovery firms, because we hold those and cannot establish each party’s role in each case. The reasoning is on the platform page, and it has not changed.

Using It

The files are static, served from a CDN, and rewritten by the harvester four times a day. Fetch them directly:

curl -s https://record.kyanolab.tech/data/sanctioned-addresses.json | jq '.count'

Every file carries fetchedAt or checkedOn, so you can tell how old the copy you have is without asking us. If a dataset is stale or a link in it has died, that is a correction and we want to hear about it — how corrections work.
