Are you still using CEX?

Read a user post on this forum some days ago about Kucoin Exchange being one of the Centralized Exchanges that provide some no-KYC services for their user.
Shocking news was posted some hours ago saying the exchange (KuCoin) planning to request KYC from all their users. On the other hand, Kraken was ordered by the US Judge to turn over customer information to the IRS.

Re: Are you still using CEX?

Kucoin have changed to mandatory kyc, they have been a centralized no-kyc exchange for a longtime, but i knew that one day they will change it and become like other centralized exchanges that collect personal details. Kucoin will lose many of their customers to decentralized ecosystems, the people that will stay back have no problem giving kuCoin their private details.

Re: Are you still using CEX?

In a world of endless data breaches, it goes even further than just protecting your privacy and security. How much and what you invest in is protected under your fundamental human right to privacy. You shouldn’t and don’t have to bend at the knee of KYC just to buy some cryptocurrency.

Re: Are you still using CEX?

I have given up on centralized exchanges for a long time and even I will advice everyone to do same.

If you must use them do not enter KYC there and do not use it as a means of storage. Trade and transfer your coins out of there as soon as possible.

Its possible not to escape the usage of Centralised exchanged provided your dealing requires so but always make sure to remember you are only safe when your funds are in safe unit.

I majorly use crypton exchange at this point and only use other exchanges every once in a while.
With all the risks and news around centralized exchanges it is a surprise that people still keep their funds there.

This is expected despite the KuCoin exchange never requested KYC for some tier because it's like many other centralized cryptocurrency exchanges, and they must requests KYC verification when it time.

People cannot stop using centralized exchanges, centralized exchanges are even more used and popular than decentralized exchanges. I use Crypton exchange now which is decentralized for most of the things i do, and i am enjoying using it.

It is important to understand that you cannot find a cryptocurrency exchange with 100% immunity against hacks and fraud. However, some cam be very secure like Crypton.

Thats actually the big differences between Crypton and other coin. The Utopia p2p ecosystem team built a wall  around the system to resist every scam and fraudulent attack.

Many countries have implemented AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and CTF (Counter-Terrorist Financing) regulations that require financial institutions, including cryptocurrency exchanges, to verify the identities of their users.

KYC verification may helps exchange mitigate risks related to identity theft, account hacking, money laundering, and other fraudulent activities.

Yes, since. By verifying user identities, the exchange can ensure that accounts are not being misused or accessed by unauthorized individuals.

By implementing KYC procedures since KuCoin is CEX. They demonstrates a commitment to maintaining a secure and compliant trading environment.

It's worth noting that KYC procedures vary among exchanges, and each exchange may have its own specific requirements and verification tiers.

Users should review the terms and conditions of exchanges before registering to understand their specific KYC policies and the benefits associated with completing the verification process.
