Marketplaces are payment hubs: buyers, sellers, and payouts all carry sanctions exposure. The BitPay precedent and the marketplace screening shape.
Marketplaces sit between buyers and sellers - every payout is a payment path. BitPay's $507K settlement was exactly this shape: merchant payments to users in sanctioned jurisdictions.
Seller onboarding (name + ownership), buyer jurisdiction, payout wallets, and refunds. Each is a counterparty surface the screen must cover.

Marketplace volume compounds exposure - hundreds of payouts a day, each a potential violation. The screen is the only control that scales.
