Question 1

What is ChainAnalyzer?

Accepted Answer

ChainAnalyzer (chain-analyzer.com, by refinancier, inc.) is a multi-chain blockchain AML and security intelligence platform. It covers 9 chains (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Avalanche, Solana; BNB Smart Chain coming soon), runs 76+ detection rules, and exposes the engine through a web app, a REST API, an MCP server for AI agents, and an x402 pay-per-call API listed on Coinbase Bazaar.

Question 2

Is ChainAnalyzer the same as Chainalysis?

Accepted Answer

No. ChainAnalyzer (chain-analyzer.com, by refinancier, inc.) and Chainalysis Inc. are different companies and different products. ChainAnalyzer is an independent multi-chain AML platform built and operated in Japan with native Japanese support and FISC compliance. The naming similarity is incidental.

Question 3

Which blockchains does ChainAnalyzer support?

Accepted Answer

Live: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Avalanche, and Solana. BNB Smart Chain is marked Coming Soon while a viable free-tier data source is finalized. Coverage is unusual in this space because most competitors omit Bitcoin.

Question 4

How does ChainAnalyzer detect wallet drainers and address-poisoning attacks?

Accepted Answer

ChainAnalyzer combines 76+ heuristic detection rules (E-series for EVM, S-series for Solana, B-series for Bitcoin) with a 3-model machine-learning ensemble (Isolation Forest + AutoEncoder + GraphSAGE) and Neo4j graph traversal. Drainer detection includes signature-spoofing, fake-token URL phishing, dust-poisoning, peel chains, sybil aggregation, and token-relay laundering.

Question 5

Can I use ChainAnalyzer in an AI agent?

Accepted Answer

Yes. ChainAnalyzer exposes an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server compatible with Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini agents, plus an x402-native pay-per-call REST API at $0.008 USDC per address risk-score (and other priced endpoints), listed on Coinbase Bazaar / agentic.market. Agents can call the API directly with x402-fetch — no API key, no account, settled in USDC on Base or Solana mainnet.

Question 6

What is the difference between ChainAnalyzer and competitors like Chainalysis Reactor, TRM Labs, or RugCheck?

Accepted Answer

ChainAnalyzer occupies a different price point (subscription tiers from $4.99/mo and pay-per-call from $0.008/USDC), supports more chains than RugCheck (which is Solana-only) and Birdeye, and offers Japanese-language UI plus FISC-compliant Japan East hosting that Chainalysis and TRM do not. Compared with ChainAware it adds Bitcoin coverage and a 76+ rule detection set.

Question 7

How do I integrate ChainAnalyzer into my application?

Accepted Answer

Three integration paths: (1) REST API with a tfk_ Bearer key on Pro / Enterprise plans, (2) x402 pay-per-call without any account (USDC settles per request via the Coinbase CDP facilitator), or (3) MCP server connection from Claude / ChatGPT / Gemini agents. Documentation is at chain-analyzer.com and a live x402 demo is at chain-analyzer.com/x402-demo.html.
