Our approach to crypto

How VASP onboarding runs in Detelio

Verify entity and licensing

Detelio confirms the counterparty’s legal entity status using registry data, captures licensing evidence when applicable, and stores sources in a single KYB record reviewers can reference.

Screen people and wallet exposure

Detelio screens UBOs and controllers for sanctions and PEP signals, highlights ownership complexity, and runs wallet exposure checks when addresses are provided as part of onboarding.

Decide, document, and monitor

Detelio generates a risk-based decision with clear rationale, keeps an audit-ready log of checks and sources, and triggers monitoring for changes that require re-review.

What triggers a review

Common crypto KYB review triggers

Signals that typically require enhanced due diligence, restrictions, or a documented compliance decision

Crossed-out eye icon representing hidden or obscured content.

Sanctions or PEP proximity

Entity, UBO, director, or related party screening returns a match, close match, or elevated association risk.

Horizontal sliders icon representing configuration settings.

Elevated wallet exposure signals

Provided wallet addresses show exposure patterns that require review before approval or transfers.

Clock icon representing time-based events or history.

Ownership complexity

Layered holding structures, offshore chains, nominee roles, or missing links in control and beneficial ownership.

Grouped user silhouettes representing individuals or team members.

Licensing or registration inconsistencies

Claims about VASP status do not match evidence, scope is unclear, or the operating footprint conflicts with documentation.

Security shield with an exclamation mark representing a risk alert.

High-risk jurisdiction exposure

Operational presence, counterparties, or service availability increases regulatory and sanctions risk.

Mobile device icon representing adverse media severity.

Adverse media or enforcement context

Credible signals of investigations, regulatory actions, or unresolved compliance findings that require rationale on file.

Questions buyers actually ask

The crypto FAQ

Real questions from compliance teams evaluating Detelio. If something's missing, ask us in the demo — we'd rather over-share.

How is crypto KYB different from traditional KYB?

Expand section details

Crypto KYB adds wallet exposure considerations and faster-moving risk triggers, on top of standard entity, UBO, and sanctions screening.

What typically triggers enhanced due diligence for a crypto counterparty?

Expand section details

Sanctions or PEP proximity, complex ownership, licensing inconsistencies, high-risk jurisdiction exposure, or elevated wallet exposure signals.

Can wallet checks be part of onboarding, not just monitoring?

Expand section details

Yes. Wallet exposure checks can be included during onboarding so approvals are based on evidence before transfers or access.

What does continuous monitoring track after approval?

Expand section details

Changes in entity status, ownership, sanctions results, adverse signals, and other risk triggers that require re-review.

Do we get an audit trail we can share with partners or regulators?

Expand section details

Yes. Detelio keeps checks, sources, outcomes, and decision rationale attached to the KYB record.
