About BUSD

Binance USD (BUSD) is a stablecoin issued by Paxos, tracked across 2 chains in Eagle Virtual coverage. Paxos can restrict BUSD at the token contract, so a restricted address cannot move the token. The exact effect varies by token and network, and a restriction can later be reversed. A BUSD address can be restricted whether or not it appears in a government sanctions source.

Compliance teams screen BUSD wallets for two things before moving funds: government sanctions exposure and the control actions recorded by the company behind the token. Eagle Virtual returns both as source-cited facts — not a risk score.

Screening BUSD for compliance

A government sanctions check and a BUSD control action are separate evidence classes. Paxos can restrict a BUSD address on-chain whether or not that address appears in a government sanctions source, so screening both classes gives the reviewer the fuller record before a BUSD transaction.

Eagle Virtual records Binance USD control actions on the networks listed above and returns the recorded action, the network, the source, and the freshness for each result. See crypto compliance screening and blockchain address screening, or the stablecoin blacklist database.
