Chainalysis is excited to announce support for Ink, a DeFi-focused Ethereum layer 2 built on the Superchain, by Kraken. Ink aims to empower the next generation of on-chain builders to deploy protocols and tools that will onboard the next billion users. With a clear commitment to delivering a fast, cheap, and interoperable network, Ink can act as the foundation for builders to deliver improved user experiences to end users.
Much like other EVM-compatible chains, Chainalysis’ support of Ink includes automatic token support, where we support all fungible and non-fungible tokens that adhere to the ERC-20, ERC-721, or ERC-1155 standards. This integration greatly enhances the scope of compliance and investigative workflows for customers, and ultimately helps spread Ink adoption across the industry.
With this new integration, Chainalysis KYT (Know Your Transaction) can now monitor Ink transactions with actionable alerts and continuous monitoring to identify high-risk behaviors and prevent suspicious activities. Ink will also be available in our entity-screening products, allowing for the screening of wallet addresses. Additionally, our flagship investigations product, Reactor, now enables customers to investigate the flow of funds across Ink, completing investigative workflows for tracing transactions, visualizing fund movements, and identifying potential illicit activity.
