Abstract: A system and method configured for analyzing transactions in a distributed ledger. The system may identify transactions where addresses and/or groupings of addresses are co-spent together and determine whether the addresses and/or groupings of addresses should be associated with each other. Addresses may be associated with each other in a grouping of addresses and/or potential grouping of addresses because they likely belong to the same entity. The system may identify different strengths and/or confidence levels of groupings of addresses and/or potential groupings of addresses. Strong groupings, relatively strong potential groupings, and/or other groupings of addresses, potential groupings of addresses, and/or groups may be grouped, associated, analyzed, and/or presented together. As such, the system may provide a comprehensive analysis of addresses associated with a given entity.
