## What Glacier21 is

Glacier21 is a blockchain address and entity intelligence company based in the Washington, DC metro area (Arlington, Virginia). We help fraud, compliance, investigations, and litigation teams answer one question: **who is behind this wallet?**

We answer it by fusing two layers of data:

- **On-chain forensics**: flow tracing across 35+ blockchains, cross-chain bridges, mixers, and exchanges.
- **Off-chain intelligence**: 600M+ tags drawn from public records, regulatory filings, leaks, OSINT, dark-web intelligence, social media, and other validated sources.

Every API response and dashboard search ships with an AI analyst. We attach a plain-English narrative explaining the risk, with a full citation trail to underlying sources, suitable for SAR filings, litigation, and regulator review.

### Numbers

- **35+** blockchains covered
- **200M+** labeled wallets
- **600M+** off-chain tags
- **200+** validated data sources

## Three ways to ship wallet intelligence

### 1. API: Self-serve

Sign up, get a key, ship a fraud check this afternoon. Drop-in REST endpoints for wallet lookup, risk scoring, entity attribution, and sanctions exposure. Sub-100ms screening tuned to your policy. Built for engineering and fraud teams that already own their stack.

Pricing tiers scale by monthly request volume. View at [glacier21.com/pricing](https://glacier21.com/pricing).

### 2. Integration: Guided

Bring Glacier21 inside your existing fraud, compliance, or KYT stack with our team. We get you architecting in days and in production in weeks. Useful when you already use Chainalysis, TRM, Elliptic, or an in-house system and want Glacier21's off-chain attribution layered in without replacing your workflow.

Book at [glacier21.com](https://glacier21.com) → "Book integration call."

### 3. Investigations: White-glove

Hand us the wallets and the docs. Federal prosecutors, FBI veterans, and crypto-native engineers handle the case. Custom scope per engagement (hourly, retainer, or flat-fee). NDA on first call. US and international matters.

Deliverables include subpoena-grade attribution chains, asset tracing and recovery support, expert witness and testimony, and exhibit-ready exports for federal proceedings.

Pricing: custom. Contact via [glacier21.com/contact](https://glacier21.com/contact) or the white-glove CTA on the pricing page.

## Who Glacier21 is built for

We serve six overlapping audiences:

- **Law firms**: asset tracing, fraud claims, sanctions advisory, subpoena response.
- **Investigators**: private investigators and forensic accountants pursuing crypto-related fraud, divorce, IP theft, and recovery matters.
- **Researchers**: academic and policy researchers studying on-chain illicit finance.
- **Compliance providers**: KYT, KYC, and AML platforms enriching their own products with off-chain attribution.
- **Exchanges**: real-time risk screening at deposit, withdrawal, and onboarding.
- **Government agencies**: federal, state, and international enforcement and intelligence units.

## Core product capabilities

### Off-chain intelligence

The hardest data to source. We do it through hundreds of validated channels:

- Public records (court filings, corporate registries, property records)
- Regulatory filings (SEC, OFAC, FinCEN, EU sanctions lists)
- Adverse media monitoring across 200+ outlets
- Dark-web intelligence and leak corpora
- Social-media handle attribution
- OSINT enrichment for counterparties

Each tag is traceable to its source and timestamped.

### On-chain forensics

Bridge-aware cross-chain tracing. We follow flows through mixers, bridges, and DEXes to identify recoverable assets and operators behind activity. Output is a deterministic attribution chain that prosecutors and judges have accepted as evidence.

### AI analyst (attached to every search)

A Glacier21 agent is appended to every API call and search result. It turns raw labels into a case-ready narrative: context, citations, sanctions exposure, and the "why" behind every score, in plain English.

- Plain-English summary on every wallet response
- Citation trail back to every source
- Follow-up questions answered in-dashboard or via API
- Returned inline or on a schedule, your choice

### Use-case surface areas

**Compliance.** Sub-100ms screening on every inbound and outbound transaction, tuned to your policy. Sanctions and adjacency exposure detection. Drop-in REST API. Threshold tuning without redeploys.

**Investigations.** Follow on-chain flows and fuse them with off-chain identity to map operators behind activity. Bridge-aware cross-chain tracing. 200M+ pre-labeled wallets. OSINT, leaks, and counterparty enrichment.

**Enforcement.** Exhibit-ready exports, expert reports, and testimony from a federal-prosecutor and FBI-veteran team. Subpoena-grade attribution chains. Asset tracing and recovery. Expert witness and testimony.

## The team

Glacier21 is built by former federal investigators, advanced engineers, blockchain analysts, and data specialists. Public team members include:

- **Michael Borowski.** 10+ years in blockchain, data analytics, and AI-driven tools. Worked on NFT marketplaces (some used in ArtBasel Miami), web3 platforms, and generative AI projects for content creation. Co-founded a web3 platform in 2019 acquired in 2022, which used AI to aggregate and curate content from diverse sources.
- **Ren McEachern.** Operator and product leader. X: [@RenMceachern](https://x.com/RenMceachern). LinkedIn: [/in/george-ren-mceachern](https://www.linkedin.com/in/george-ren-mceachern/).

## Why now

Stablecoin volume has eclipsed most card networks. Major banks are moving deposits, settlement, and treasury flows onto public chains, bringing decades of compliance obligations with them. Glacier21 is the compliance layer for that shift: real-time wallet intelligence built for the volume, velocity, and jurisdictional complexity of on-chain finance.

We do not provide webhooks or streaming endpoints today. Everything is REST. Latency budget is sub-100ms for screening calls.

## Recognition

Selected from hundreds of regional applicants as one of the most promising young companies shaping the DC tech economy.

State-backed recognition from Virginia's top innovation authority (Virginia Commonwealth Cyber Initiative grant). Funded through CCI's Commonwealth Cyber Incubator + Accelerator (CCI+A) program, partnered with Virginia Commonwealth University and George Mason University.

Beat a competitive field of venture-stage startups to take home top honors at a regional pitch event. A vote of confidence from Virginia's investor ecosystem.

## Dashboard and Agentic Access

The Glacier21 customer dashboard at `https://dashboard.glacier21.com`
exposes a Model Context Protocol server, OAuth metadata, OpenAPI 3.1 with
machine-payment hints, an agent skills index, and an x402 paid endpoint.
Together they let an autonomous agent sign up, authenticate, run wallet
searches, and pay for a plan without a browser.

### Bootstrap path for an agent (no human required)

1. Configure your MCP client to use `https://dashboard.glacier21.com/api/mcp`.
2. Call the JSON-RPC method `initialize`, then `tools/list`.
3. If you do not have an account, call the `register_account` tool with
   `{ email, password }`. The response includes an `access_token` (7-day
   Bearer JWT). Pass it as `Authorization: Bearer <token>` on every
   subsequent request.
4. Free accounts get 10 wallet lookups via `search_wallet`. To extend
   beyond that, either call `subscribe_to_plan` (returns a Stripe Checkout
   URL) or POST to `/api/x402/subscribe` to settle a USDC-on-Base payment
   programmatically with the x402 protocol.
5. Mint long-lived API keys with `create_api_key` once authenticated.

### Tool catalog (callable via MCP)

`register_account`, `login`, `search_wallet`, `get_usage_stats`,
`list_api_keys`, `create_api_key`, `revoke_api_key`, `list_plans`,
`subscribe_to_plan`, `get_subscription`, `cancel_subscription`.

Each tool is a thin proxy to the corresponding endpoint on
`api.glacier21.com`. Schemas, descriptions, and pricing live in the
[MCP server card](https://dashboard.glacier21.com/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json)
and the [agent skills index](https://dashboard.glacier21.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json).

### Payment rails available to agents

- **Stripe Checkout.** Call `subscribe_to_plan({ plan: "iceberg" })`,
  receive a hosted URL. Best when a human is in the loop.
- **x402.** POST to `/api/x402/subscribe` with no body, receive HTTP 402
  with payment requirements. Settle USDC on Base via the listed
  facilitator and resubmit with the receipt in the `X-PAYMENT` header.
  Best for fully autonomous agents.
- **MPP (Machine Payment Protocol).** Every payable operation in
  `/openapi.json` carries an `x-payment-info` extension. MPP middleware
  (mppx, pympp) can detect and complete payment automatically.
