Abstract

A method for assisting wallet providers in regulatory compliance for blockchain transactions includes: receiving, by a receiver of a processing server, a new blockchain transaction from a first computing device, the new blockchain including at least a destination address associated with a blockchain wallet as a recipient for the new blockchain transaction; generating, by a processor of the processing server, a reference identifier for the new blockchain transaction; identifying, by the processor of the processing server, a profile for the blockchain wallet based on the destination address; transmitting, by a transmitter of the processing server, the reference identifier to the first computing device; and transmitting, by the transmitter of the processing server, a notification message to a second computing device, the notification message including at least the reference identifier and data associated with the blockchain wallet.
