get_address_exposure
Taint exposure of one address on one chain: a bounded backward walk over the value graph to the nearest OFAC-sanctioned or hack/drainer/mixer root, answered as a class (sanctioned|direct|indirect|negligible|unknown|none), the nearest hop and a value-proportional haircut fraction. Use it to explain how closely an address is tied to a sanctioned or hack root and by how much value. Not for one go/no-go tier — get_address_risk already includes this walk. Not for the counterparties themselves or a chosen depth, token or window: get_wallet_graph_walk. Not for issuer freezes: get_address_compliance. 'unknown' means the walk did not complete — OFAC list unloaded, time_budget, frontier_cap, Solana coverage pending or partial, short history, or no hack/drainer/mixer label loaded for this chain — never a false 'none'; incomplete_reasons names which (time_budget may complete at a quieter moment, frontier_cap repeats). Depth is fixed at 3 hops and the walk never crosses chains: ask again with chain set for each network in chains_with_data. A verdict is reused for up to 60 s (10 s after a time_budget cut). Heavy read: under load it answers busy or timeout — retry with backoff. No auth; 1200 requests/min shared by all tools. A heuristic signal, not an AML or legal determination.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| chain | No | Chain, in any of four spellings: the id (8453 Base — default for 0x addresses; a T… address defaults to Tron and a base58 one to Solana, 1 Ethereum, 10 Optimism, 42161 Arbitrum, 56 BNB Chain, 728126428 Tron, -1 Solana), the same id as a string, the network slug (base, ethereum, optimism, arbitrum, bnb-chain, tron, solana) or its CAIP-2 id (eip155:1, solana:5eykt4UsFv8P8NJdTREpY1vzqKqZKvdp). Surrounding whitespace, a leading + and leading zeros are ignored, a JSON number counts by its value (1.0 is 1), slugs and CAIP-2 ids match in any letter case, and an empty, blank or null chain is no chain at all. Anything else (hex, a decimal fraction, a zero-padded CAIP-2 reference) is refused, and so is a network this scanner knows but does not index — by name, never with an empty clean verdict. The answer is about ONE chain: chain_id says which, chain_source says how it was chosen (explicit|default|address_form) and chains_with_data lists where else this address has data — read it before concluding, then ask again with chain set | |
| address | Yes | The address to check. The address in its network's own spelling: 0x… for EVM chains, T… for Tron, base58 for Solana. The answer writes it in the spelling of chain_id (address) and echoes what you sent (requested_address); address_respelled true means your spelling belongs to another kind of chain than chain_id (a T… address asked about an EVM chain, a 0x… address asked about Tron) — answered about the same bytes there, not refused, and the same owner only for a plain key account. |
