Elliptic Launches Next-Generation Continuous Monitoring, Giving Crypto Compliance Teams a Live View of Customer Risk Without the Flood of Alerts

Elliptic, the global leader in digital asset decisioning, today launched the next generation of Continuous Monitoring, a solution that gives crypto compliance teams a continuously accurate view of customer risk rather than a picture frozen at the last screening. Elliptic's Continuous Monitoring is the most comprehensive risk monitoring solution on the market, and the only one to pair the industry's broadest event detection with fully configurable alerting. It is available to compliance teams today.

"Monitoring obligations on MLROs are getting more stringent, putting both their companies and, sometimes, themselves at risk. Existing monitoring solutions fail twice over: They leave exposure gaps by only alerting on obvious triggers like label changes while missing the rest. On the exposure they do catch, they fire so indiscriminately that teams drown in alerts that don’t matter. We’ve built Continuous Monitoring to cover the full range of events that change a customer's risk, and to alert only when it matters, fully configurable to their own rules,” said Jackson Hull, CTO and COO at Elliptic.

Continuous Monitoring matters because, a customer's crypto risk does not stay still after onboarding. For example, a wallet scored 0.5 out of 10 at onboarding can send funds to a darknet marketplace six months later and become a 10. The original screening was not wrong. But without a rescreen, the compliance team has no way of knowing the changes to the wallet score. Manually rescreening every enrolled entity to find the few that have moved is not viable at the volume teams operate at today. The regulatory, reputational and operational cost of missing a genuine change is significant.

Until now, existing solutions have not solved this. Label-based monitoring only alerts when a provider changes their label on a connected address, but risk can change without any label changing at all. A significant inflow, a new transaction, a fresh connection to an illicit actor: none of these trigger a label change, and will go undetected. Existing legacy solutions compensate by notifying on everything, regardless of whether it represents genuine risk. Compliance teams report such a volume of notifications that the alerts that actually matter get buried.

Three things set Continuous Monitoring apart: it detects the full range of risk-changing events rather than label changes alone, it is fully configurable to each customer's own risk rules, and it alerts teams only on what they have defined as material. Continuous Monitoring is built differently. It covers the full range of events that can change a screening's outcome, not just label changes. For example: material changes in inflow or outflow; a screened address changing or merging into a different cluster; a label change on a counterparty; a label change several hops from the screened address; and a direct label change on the screened address.

With the widest range of risk-changing events, Elliptic’s Continuous Monitoring catches what legacy monitoring solutions miss. Alongside event detection, every enrolled wallet and transaction is rescreened on a fixed schedule, so nothing slips through between events. When either layer triggers, it runs a complete risk recalculation against the customer's own risk rules. Not a label check or a generic score, but a full screen.

Elliptic's Continuous Monitoring leads the market in how it handles alerts. Customers configure exactly what generates a notification across four levers: risk-score thresholds, risk-score deltas, specific risk rules and screening-type filters. Individual screenings can be excluded entirely, removing alerts on entities that are no longer relevant. When a rescreen runs but does not meet notification criteria, the updated score appears in Lens for review. The system is always working. Teams are alerted only on what they have defined as material, and hear from the system only when they need to, freeing them to spend the time they save on higher-value oversight work.
