How Exchanges Score Your Crypto Deposits
When you deposit Bitcoin or USDT to Binance, Bybit, or OKX, your transaction is scored in real-time by automated analytics engines like Chainalysis, Elliptic, and Crystal.
Taint Score Thresholds:
- 0% - 15%: Low Risk — Instant auto-credit to trading balance.
- 15% - 40%: Medium Risk — Potential manual compliance review.
- 40%+: High Risk — Automated deposit freeze, KYC source-of-wealth inquiry.
How to Reset Your Taint Score to 0%
If your wallet received funds from P2P, mixer outputs from old flagged pools, or gray market desks, depositing directly to a centralized exchange will trigger account suspension. Using top-tier privacy protocols like Anonymix for Bitcoin or Mixer-Tron for USDT completely severs the provenance chain, delivering clean liquidity with a verified 0% taint score.
