Risk Management

The Risk category of the Farady API provides endpoints to proactively assess and investigate the execution of a transaction and manage the counterparties and protocols engaged with.

Risk API

The Risk API provides risk assessments for both addresses and transactions, helping identify suspicious behavior or high-risk flows before submission.

Key Features

  • Wallet Risk Scoring: Evaluate individual addresses based on behavior,
    or known lists.
  • Transaction Risk Scoring: Assess entire transaction flows, combining
    compliance and risk logic.
  • ML Hooks: Integrate machine-learning-based assessments
    (optional/experimental).

Use Cases

  • Network Monitoring: Track and analyze the transaction activity and volume across multiple blockchain networks to monitor network performance and health.
  • Cross-Chain Activity: Identify and analyze high-volume cross-chain transfers, which are critical for understanding the flow of assets between blockchains.
  • Blockchain Analytics: Gather aggregate data on transaction counts and volumes for detailed network analysis and performance tracking.

Security

All API endpoints in the Risk category require an API key for access, passed in the X-API-KEY header.

Usage

The Risk API offers high-level insights into blockchain network performance, including transactions and volume analysis. This makes it useful for blockchain explorers, analytics tools, and network health monitoring.
