Famous people on-chain: what PublicAML knows
65 public figures whose wallets are attributed by name in our data — Bitcoin's first decade, the people who wrote the protocols, exchange founders, creators, and the names that turned up in criminal cases. Each card shows the risk score our engine gives that address right now, and how much has moved through it. Open any of them for the full report: source of funds, counterparties and every finding behind the score.
Who says these are their addresses. The names come from an attribution feed, not from us — we are repeating a claim, and it can be wrong or out of date. A public figure can also have wallets nobody has ever linked to them; nothing here is a complete picture of anyone's holdings.
What the score means. The risk score is exposure, not an accusation. It says what has reached this address through the graph — an address can score high purely because strangers sent it tainted funds, which is exactly what happens to a published donation address. It is live at page load.
What the counts mean. Transfers in and out are every transfer we have indexed, all assets included. Spam and airdrop tokens are transfers too, so on a well-known Ethereum wallet most of the count is noise sent by strangers. They are a snapshot taken 2026-09-30, not live. We do not publish balances: our data cannot reconstruct one we would be willing to put a name next to.
Bitcoin history
The addresses the first decade of Bitcoin was written from: the genesis coinbase, the pizza, the donation addresses people published on forums when publishing one was normal.
