Overview

The Wallet Risk Score is a numerical assessment (0-100) that indicates the risk level associated with a wallet address. It helps identify potentially suspicious or high-risk wallets before transactions.

Methodology

The risk score is calculated using a multi-factor approach:

  • Transaction pattern analysis
  • Interaction history with known entities
  • Funding source analysis
  • Behavioral clustering
  • Contract interaction patterns

Risk Factors

High Risk Indicators

Interaction with mixers, newly deployed contracts, or known scam addresses.

Activity Patterns

Unusual transaction timing, same-block transactions, or automated patterns.

Positive Indicators

Long history, interaction with reputable protocols, CEX deposits.

Verification

Verified identities, labeled entities, and known DeFi protocols.
