If Anchorage Digital is unable to automatically attribute a pending deposit, you will be notified by email to identify the sending party. Adding addresses to your trusted sources speeds up future attribution, but it’s optional—you can always attribute a deposit after it arrives. A pending attribution holds only that deposit. It doesn’t block your other funds, and the address can keep receiving deposits as usual.

​
Viewing and attributing pending deposits

1

Access pending attributions

After logging in, click Attribute deposits from the homepage, or navigate to the Operations tab.
2

Select a deposit

Select the deposit you want to attribute and click Attribute deposit. You may attribute multiple deposits simultaneously if they share the same originator(s).
3

Add originator details

Enter the name and country of the originator. You may add multiple originators. To automatically attribute future deposits from the same address, check Add to your trusted sources.
4

Confirm

Confirm the information is accurate and click Attribute deposit. Once attribution is complete, the associated amount becomes available for withdrawal.
If you do not recognize a deposit, you have the option to flag it as spam.

​
Spam and dust deposits

Unsolicited deposits—spam tokens, dust amounts, or transfers from spoofed counterparties—still enter the attribution queue and are reviewed by our compliance team like any other deposit. They don’t put your genuine funds at risk. If you receive a deposit you don’t recognize, leave it unattributed and don’t interact with it. Flag it as spam so our team can review it. Automatic filtering of spam deposits isn’t available yet. For deposits designed to imitate addresses you already use, see address poisoning protection.

Best practices

  • Verify sender information — Confirm the originator name and country match your expected counterparties
  • Use trusted sources — Add frequently-used addresses to trusted sources to streamline future deposits
  • Review regularly — Check for pending attributions regularly to avoid delays in withdrawal availability
