As global regulators push for greater transparency and control in crypto, companies like Lirium are stepping up to meet the moment. Lirium operates a B2B2C integration platform helping banks offer crypto to their customers—without the banks having to build new infrastructure or face regulatory minefields alone.
With operations spanning Latin America and Europe, and licenses in Liechtenstein while pursuing full MiCA-readiness, Lirium’s vision is ambitious. But this ambition came with a major challenge: building a scalable and efficient compliance stack that could support growth across multiple jurisdictions, partners, and evolving regulatory regimes.
The Challenge: Fragmented Tools, Growing Risk
Before working with Unit21, Lirium’s compliance infrastructure relied on a combination of standalone tools: Chainalysis and TRM Labs for crypto monitoring, Ondato for KYC and sanctions screening—but no centralized transaction monitoring or case management.

While considering transaction monitoring or case management vendors, they had a specific set of business requirements in mind.
- Scalable AML monitoring across different regulatory environments
- Jurisdictional segmentation (e.g., Lirium Argentina vs. Lirium Europe)
- A single system to manage alerts, rules, investigations, and partner reporting
- Integration with existing blockchain monitoring and KYC tools
The Solution: A Unified Compliance Platform Built for Scale
Lirium turned to Unit21 to fill this critical gap in their compliance stack.
Lirium selected Unit21 for its powerful capabilities in detecting suspicious transaction patterns, monitoring accounts, and providing granular transaction visibility. They were particularly drawn to Unit21’s flexible rule-building system, integrated case management tools, customer risk rating features, and support for enhanced due diligence — all tailored to meet the demands of their B2B2C model. The inclusion of Chainalysis integration, support for Ondato KYC data, and the potential efficiency of its AI agent further solidified their decision.
- Custom Rule Building: With Lirium’s API and Unit21, they can define relationships between customers and monitor transactions exactly how the Lirium team sees fit
- Seamless Integrations: Ability to pull in Chainalysis alerts and enable bi-directional integration
- Catapult Growth: ability to scale at the speed of expected growth, with capabilities to handle 54,000+ transactions monthly and room to double
The Unit21 team is helping Lirium implement a suite of AML-focused tools, including transaction monitoring, alert generation, case management, customer risk scoring, and sanctions screening, designed to unify their operations and meet regulatory expectations across geographies.

The Results: Streamlined Compliance, Global Confidence
With Unit21, Lirium will centralize its compliance operations across regions, reducing manual work and decreasing false positives through streamlined rule building.
While it's early days in the partnership, the Lirium team is excited to tackle workflows such as:
- Entity-based alert segmentation, enabling jurisdiction-specific compliance reporting
- Automated alert pipelines, reducing time to detect and investigate anomalies
- Scalable infrastructure, ready to handle increasing volumes as adoption grows
With Unit21, Lirium is now confidently navigating compliance across Latin America and Europe, all while preparing for the next phase of growth under evolving regulatory frameworks like MICA.
