Message scanning is the automated analysis of digital communications for specific content, patterns, or associated metadata. In the context of digital assets, this refers to the monitoring of transaction messages, smart contract inputs, or public blockchain data for suspicious activities, compliance violations, or market intelligence. It employs algorithms and artificial intelligence to detect anomalies or predefined indicators. This practice is utilized for regulatory compliance and fraud detection.

It raises considerable privacy concerns, particularly among proponents of decentralized finance and online freedom. The ongoing debate centers on balancing regulatory demands for oversight with individual data protection rights and the pseudonymous nature of many digital asset transactions.
