AMLBot is a blockchain analytics and cryptocurrency compliance company.^[1][2] Media coverage has described AMLBot as a blockchain forensics and anti-money-laundering firm whose services include cryptocurrency wallet screening and transaction tracing.^[3][4][5]

The company was founded in 2019. The service initially operated as a Telegram bot before expanding into a broader cryptocurrency compliance platform.^[6]

The platform offers wallet screening, transaction monitoring, KYC/KYB verification, blockchain investigations, and asset recovery support.^[6] AMLBot's founding team included Viacheslav (Slava) Demchuk, who serves as chief executive officer.^[7] AMLBot operates through legal entities in Hong Kong (Safelement Limited) and Lithuania (Safe3 UAB).^[8] In 2025, AMLBot participated in LazarusBounty, a program launched by cryptocurrency exchange Bybit to encourage the tracing and freezing of funds stolen in the Bybit hack.^[9] In July 2026, AMLBot launched AI Tracer, a self-service blockchain analysis tool for tracing cryptocurrency transactions across wallets, blockchain networks, and cross-chain bridges. Cointelegraph reported that the tool can identify known entities such as cryptocurrency exchanges and flagged wallets and is intended to assist users in tracing stolen assets, but cannot freeze or recover funds.^[10]

AMLBot's cryptocurrency investigations have been covered by cryptocurrency news outlets. Decrypt reported on an AMLBot investigation into a so-called "proximity breach," in which a former crypto executive lost US$450,000 after an acquaintance compromised his device through a Wi-Fi connection. The funds were subsequently traced to an exchange account and frozen.^[11]

Decrypt also cited AMLBot's analysis of an address-poisoning scam in which a victim lost approximately US$700,000 in stablecoins.^[12]

In May 2025, AMLBot published a report examining Tether's process for blacklisting USDT addresses. The report identified delays between a freeze request and the implementation of the freeze, including a 44-minute gap in one case, and estimated that approximately US$78 million had been moved from addresses during such windows between 2017 and 2025. Cointelegraph and Decrypt reported on the findings.^[3][4]

Decrypt reported that blockchain security firm PeckShield reviewed the report and confirmed that the delay existed, describing it as an operational rather than a contract-level issue. A Tether spokesperson disputed the characterisation of the delay as a systemic loophole, describing the multi-signature model as a trade-off intended to prevent unilateral freezes and stating that Tether had frozen more than US$2.7 billion in USDT at the time.^[4][3] In December 2025, AMLBot published a comparative analysis of address-freezing practices by Tether and Circle. The Block cited the analysis in January 2026, reporting that the total value of USDT frozen by Tether since 2023 was roughly 30 times the amount of USDC frozen by Circle over the same period.^[5]

The same analysis was cited in legal commentary published by Bloomberg Law discussing stablecoin regulation under the GENIUS Act.^[13]

In Kazakhstan, AMLBot signed a memorandum of understanding with the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kazakhstan, represented by its Department for Combating Cybercrime, and the Stop-piramida.kz initiative to support investigations into cryptocurrency-related fraud.^[14]

In Thailand, AMLBot has cooperated with law enforcement officers in investigations of cryptocurrency-related fraud. In August 2024, Bangkok Post reported that officers at Pathum Thani Police Station partnered with AMLBot to trace and recover cryptocurrency stolen by transnational scam syndicates. The report also noted that AMLBot provided training to Thai police officers on the use of its blockchain investigation tools.^[15]

In August 2025, Thai media outlet Thairath reported that AMLBot Thailand helped recover digital assets worth approximately 4.3 million baht within 48 hours following an investigation involving the gaming platform Blink Game AI.^[16]
