Insider trading detection for crypto — pre-disclosure window analysis, patent pending

ChainAnalyzer now ships insider trading detection for crypto assets. Register company affiliations and token interest scopes as tags, and scans cross-reference them. On top of that, pre-disclosure window detection automatically escalates trades that land inside the window before a registered announcement to CRITICAL. The detection method is patent pending.

What it detects

• Relationship cross-reference — "which company is this wallet related to" (affiliation tags) × "which tokens are exposed to that company's insider information" (insider-scope tags). Trades of in-scope tokens by related wallets are flagged.
• Pre-disclosure window — register disclosure events (earnings, partnerships, listings…) and any trade inside the look-back window (default 30 days) before the announcement is escalated to CRITICAL, with the window trades themselves attached as evidence transactions.

No personally identifiable information

The feature collects no names, no account data — only user-supplied tags and public on-chain data are cross-referenced. This privacy-preserving monitoring approach is part of the patent-pending core technology.

Why now

Japan is moving toward bringing crypto assets under insider trading rules through FIEA amendments. Starting transaction monitoring before the rules take effect — rather than scrambling after — is the preparation exchanges, issuers, and investigation teams need.

How to use it

• Register disclosure events (title, announced-at, scope, window days) in the Insider Events screen
• Add affiliation / insider-scope tags (tags are private to each user)
• Then just scan — cross-referencing and window checks run automatically, with evidence attached to findings

Note: findings are reference information indicating suspicious patterns. Legal determination of insider trading and reporting obligations remains with the user.
