Definition ∞ Graph models represent data as a network of nodes, also known as vertices, and edges, which represent relationships between those nodes. In the context of digital assets and blockchain, these models are used to analyze transaction flows, network participants, and smart contract interactions. They offer a powerful visual and analytical framework for understanding complex connections and dependencies within decentralized systems. This approach aids in detecting patterns.
Context ∞ Financial intelligence firms and blockchain analytics platforms increasingly employ graph models to track illicit activities, identify market manipulation, and visualize network adoption. News reports on regulatory investigations or on-chain data analysis often reference insights derived from these models. Their application is crucial for enhancing transparency and security across the digital asset landscape.
