Cryptocurrency Address Clustering and Labeling

Anonymity is one of the most important qualities of blockchain technology. For example, one can simply create a bitcoin address to send and receive funds without providing KYC to any authority. In general, the real identity behind cryptocurrency addresses is not known, however, some addresses can be clustered according to their ownership by analyzing behavioral patterns, allowing those with known attribution to be assigned labels. These labels may be further used for legal and compliance purposes to assist in law enforcement investigations. In this document, we discuss our methodology behind assigning attribution labels to cryptocurrency addresses.
