Blockchain compliance startup Chainalysis has added four more cryptocurrencies to its real-time transaction monitoring tool.
The newly supported coins are Binance’s native token Binance Coin and three stablecoins – , Tether and Circle's USD Coin (USDC) – Chainalysis said Wednesday.

“As a New York trust company, we are required to monitor transactions onto and off of our platform," said crypto exchange Gemini’s chief compliance officer, Michael Breu. "Automated solutions like Chainalysis help us fulfill our regulatory obligations.”
The additions mean Chainalysis' anti-money laundering compliance solution, Chainalysis KYT (Know Your Transaction), now supports a total of 10 cryptocurrencies. The solution already supported six cryptocurrencies: bitcoin , ether , , and the stablecoins TrustToken's TrueUSD and Paxos Standard (PAX).
The support of additional cryptocurrencies comes in anticipation of regulatory guidance from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), a global money-laundering watchdog, which will provide clarity on how cryptocurrencies should be regulated over 180 countries, Chainalysis said.
The startup's co-founder and chief operating officer, Jonathan Levin, told CoinDesk:
“Chainalysis is prepared to equip businesses with automated transaction monitoring for currencies beyond bitcoin. We expect that the launch of these multiple currency capabilities will help shape FATF guidance on the sector and help move away from technically infeasible solutions to more pragmatic recommendations.”
With Chainalysis having recently rebuilt its technology to scale and support more blockchains, the firm will be able to add new cryptocurrencies more quickly, Levin added in the announcement.
The startup's blockchain investigation tool, Chainalysis Reactor, now also supports the same 10 cryptocurrencies, which it says represent 85 percent of the top 25 coins by trading volume.
Just last week, Chainalysis published a public comment letter in response to a draft recommendation by the FATF, saying that it is unrealistic and potentially harmful for the crypto industry to expect exchange platforms to send know-your-customer (KYC) information to recipient platforms with every transaction.
Founded in 2014, the firm recently raised a total of $36 million in a multi-stage Series B funding backed by notable investors, including Japan’s largest bank Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG) and venture capital firm Accel Partners.

BlackRock's digital assets head: Leverage-driven volatility threatens bitcoin’s narrative
Rampant speculation on crypto derivatives platforms is fueling volatility and risking bitcoin’s image as a stable hedge, says BlackRock’s digital assets chief.
Ano ang dapat malaman:
- BlackRock digital-assets chief Robert Mitchnick warned that heavy use of leverage in bitcoin derivatives is undermining the cryptocurrency’s appeal as a stable institutional portfolio hedge.
- Mitchnick said bitcoin’s fundamentals as a scarce, decentralized monetary asset remain strong, but its trading increasingly resembles a "levered NASDAQ," raising the bar for conservative investors to adopt it.
- He argued that exchange-traded funds like BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin ETF are not the main source of volatility, pointing instead to perpetual futures platforms.
