Scenario: Agent Pays Through a Sanctioned Exchange
The sanctioned-exchange scenario - every hop in the payment path needs the screen.
The setup
Your agent's payment flow routes settlement through an exchange whose addresses OFAC designated (like Garantex in 2022).
Without screening
- The payment settles through designated addresses
- Transacting with a designated exchange is prohibited
- The operator holds the liability
With screening
- The wallet screen matches the exchange's designated addresses
- The payment is blocked before sign
- The result is logged with the list entry and version
- The agent surfaces the block instead of settling
The takeaway
Exchanges get designated - their addresses land on the list. The screen must check every hop in the payment path, not just the final destination.
