Abstract:Cryptocurrency money-laundering forensic analysis after Web3 incidents faces challenges such as fragmented evidence, expanding transaction paths, and cross-chain discontinuity. Existing Web3 AML methods largely rely on manual clues and heuristic or graph-search-based tracing, with outputs limited to lists of suspicious addresses and lacking path-level evidence and verifiable explanations. Directly applying general-purpose large language models to raw transaction flows also struggles to ensure evidence constraints and result verifiability. To address these limitations, this paper presents RISKTAGGER, an LLM-guided agent for forensic tracing of Web3 cryptocurrency money laundering. RISKTAGGER embeds the LLM as an evidence-constrained decision component within a controlled tracing loop. It extracts case clues from public incident materials, recursively expands a risk-labeled fund-flow graph over on-chain evidence, and generates evidence-organized reports for analyst review. We evaluate it on five real-world incidents spanning multiple years and covering heterogeneous attack patterns and laundering path structures. We further conduct cross-case generalization analysis, baseline comparison, component ablation, and LLM backend analysis. In the main Bybit case, the system achieves a 97.33% address recall and a 98.69% expert-reviewed sampled address precision. Across the other four incidents, it achieves 95.24-100.00% address recall and 91.27-100.00% expert-reviewed address precision. The cross-case results further show that the complexity of Web3 money laundering arises from heterogeneous mechanisms, including short-cycle fund fragmentation, long-range laundering paths, interwoven DeFi services, and deterministic denomination splitting. RISKTAGGER can recover case-related fund paths, identify high-priority risk accounts, and organize public evidence into verifiable forensic reports.
