Title: Does Bithumb accept US users? Post by: TheGodson on September 05, 2017, 04:12:23 AM I've tried to get an account on Bithumb. Their prices for Bitcoin and other altcoins are way better than in the US. Is there any way I can sign up for an account there? I've tried entering a password, but then it says "Password needs to consist of eight digits including special characters." Even when I meet the criteria it still rejects me. I even tried putting in Korean characters so I could bypass it, but it just doesn't work. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
Also, is Bithumb good? Can I trust them? Title: Re: Does Bithumb accept US users? Post by: popolite11 on September 05, 2017, 02:30:29 PM I've tried to get an account on Bithumb.

I looked at you exchange and price is almost same as everywhere. What exactly is better? I tried to register there but they need my mobile, don't want to use it :( Title: Re: Does Bithumb accept US users? Post by: Ale88 on November 29, 2017, 04:49:25 AM Does Bithumb have the 2FA? Because I tried to register and I didn't see any 2FA option ???

Like sending drivers licence photo to them in Korea, which gives me the creeps. It IS the best exchange for top prices. Need to think of a way to get verified without sending licence over. :-\

Bithumb won't be allowed to let people have anonymous accounts anymore. All the South Korean exchanges will have to do know-your-customer (KYC) due diligence from now on. https://www.coindesk.com/south-korea-to-tighten-bitcoin-exchange-rules-amid-speculative-boom/ Quote only accounts with real and matching identity can be allowed for deposit and withdrawals.

You can deposit bitcoins and sell them in Korea. However getting the money back out again isn't easy. Even Koreans are limited to sending a maximum of $50,000 abroad per year. This medium story explains how the system works. https://medium.com/cryptonight/investigating-the-great-korean-bitcoin-arbitrage-opportunity-32e4e547a730 Title: Re: Does Bithumb accept US users?

Doesn't accept any password from 8 to 12 numbers/letters ::) Title: Re: Does Bithumb accept US users? Post by: Daltonik on January 25, 2022, 05:14:05 PM I'll pick up the thread, and then it's very quiet here, although there is not very good news, so it is reported that from January 27, 2022, Bigthumb will prohibit users from withdrawing crypto assets to unverified third-party wallets. To register their addresses, users will have to undergo additional verification. The restrictions do not affect the withdrawal of funds to local or foreign centralized exchanges with strict KYC procedures. https://cafe.bithumb.com/view/board-contents/1642612
