Sanctions Screening

German: Sanktionsprüfung

Checking counterparties and, on-chain, addresses against sanctions lists; listed addresses create the practical problem that received units may be unusable.

Why people look this up

Compliance readers asking what happens when tainted units reach an otherwise clean wallet.

Auf Deutsch

Sanktionsprüfung Der Abgleich von Kontrahenten und, on-chain, von Adressen mit Sanktionslisten; gelistete Adressen führen praktisch dazu, dass empfangene Einheiten unbrauchbar werden können.

Looking for how this maps to its traditional-finance counterpart rather than a standalone definition? See the Term Bridge, which also flags where the obvious analogy is wrong.
