OFAC adds 7 new crypto addresses to sanctions list

OFAC listed 7 new cryptocurrency addresses since the last update, mostly on Solana, bringing the combined list WalletDNA screens to 1060.

OFAC added 7 cryptocurrency addresses to its sanctions list since the previous update, according to the OFAC Sanctions List Service. The combined list that WalletDNA screens against now totals 1060 addresses.

What the data shows

• 5 of the 7 new addresses are on Solana.
• 2 are on an unidentified chain.
• All 7 were issued by OFAC.

Chain attribution here is inferred from address format, not stated by OFAC. OFAC does not always specify which chain an address belongs to, so the Unknown category reflects that gap rather than an error in the listing itself.

What it means for your work

A new OFAC listing changes the risk status of any wallet that has touched these addresses, immediately and retroactively. If a client or counterparty transacted with one of these addresses before today, that exposure existed before the listing was public. Analysts who screen on a schedule rather than continuously can miss the window between listing and detection.

What you can do about it

• Check the example addresses against your own transaction histories, not just forward-looking monitoring.
• Treat the Unknown-chain entries as a prompt to verify format and chain manually rather than assuming screening tools caught them automatically.
• Pull the full current list from the OFAC Sanctions List Service rather than relying on a cached copy.

Two of the seven new listings carry no clear chain identifier in the source data. That is a gap in the public record, not a resolved detail, and it's worth flagging in any report that cites this update.

WalletDNA's screening tool checks addresses against the combined sanctions lists, including these new entries, so you can confirm exposure directly rather than working from a headline.
