Data sources

How to use it. See Audits in the user guide for where audits draw on these sources.

Wallet Sleuth does not maintain its own blocklist. It combines open datasets and public APIs, records where every label came from, and shows that provenance on the label itself. This page lists each source.

Threat intelligence

These sources produce the risk labels described under Threat intelligence and taint.

Daily sources are merged at a fixed time each day. An address a source no longer lists is removed for that source on the next run, with a safeguard that skips the removal pass when a download looks truncated.

Entity labels

These name an address as a business or service. They are shown for context and never raise risk.

Liquidity figures decide what counts as realizable value and whether a position is flagged illiquid. A price is only accepted from a pool with meaningful depth, so a token's toy pool cannot inflate a wallet's valuation.

Funding and cash-out tracing

Allium's indexed chain data lets an audit look further back than the history it reads for each wallet. The audit sends Allium the audited wallet addresses, never the client's name or any other report content.

Wallet tags and inferred location

These sources produce the tags and locations described under Tags and inferred location. Only wallet addresses are sent to Allium.

Optional user-connected data

A user can also connect their own Allium key, to import wallet lists from saved queries and to supply historical holder data for reconciliation. Those two features only ever use the user's own key.

Identity assessments

An auditor can declare the person or business behind some of an audit's wallets and, after stating why they are authorised to review it, ask for an identity assessment. Only declared identities are ever assessed. The public sources below are each read once per assessment, with a user agent that names Wallet Sleuth and a contact address, at no more than one request per second, and only where the site's robots.txt allows it. Nothing is read behind a login, and a CAPTCHA or block simply ends that source for the run.

Only links, page titles and short excerpts are kept, never page contents, photos or profile details, and they are deleted 180 days after the assessment unless it is run again. Anyone who believes they have been assessed can ask to be removed at admin@wisteriatechnologies.com; the assessment is deleted from every audit and the name cannot be assessed again.

Disputes and corrections

A label is evidence with a source and a date, not a verdict. If you believe an address is labelled in error, check the source shown on the label first, since most corrections belong with the upstream list. To raise a concern about how Wallet Sleuth applies a label, contact admin@wisteriatechnologies.com.
