REST API & ScamDB API — Integrate ChainAnalyzer Into Your Systems

REST API & ScamDB API Launch

Integrate ChainAnalyzer into your systems — programmatic scanning & lookup

ChainAnalyzer v0.9.1 introduces the public REST API and ScamDB API. Use tfk_ API keys for programmatic address scanning across 5 chains, free ScamDB lookups, enriched batch reports with AI analysis, and PDF export.

REST API (Public Scan API)

Scan addresses across Bitcoin, Ethereum, Avalanche, Polygon, and Solana programmatically using tfk_ prefixed API keys.

curl -X POST https://chain-analyzer.com/api/v1/public/scan \

  -H "X-API-Key: tfk_your_key_here" \

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

  -d '{"address": "347QFbe...", "chain": "bitcoin"}'

• Single address scan (POST /api/v1/public/scan)
• Batch scan submission, status check, and result retrieval
• Redis-backed rate limiting (Pro: 60 req/min)
• 30-minute scan result caching

ScamDB API (Public OSINT)

Query our open scam database via API. Address lookups are free and require no API key.

{"found": true, "entry": {"id": "SCAM-001", "severity": "danger", ...}}
