Title: Paxful verification? Post by: Kyraishi on January 02, 2020, 09:05:16 AM I'm just wondering how Paxful's system of verification works.
Right now I'm holding an anonymous account but I've heard that you need to verify yourself after a certain threshold of trading volume. Contradictory to that however I've also heard people who have been trading for years without ever needing to verify themselves. So which is true? Obviously with Localbitcoins imposing these new verification rules there is need to seek for some alternatives in this space. Title: Re: Paxful verification?

Obviously with Localbitcoins imposing these new verification rules there is need to seek for some alternatives in this space. you can avoid KYC by remaining below $1500 in total trading volume or wallet activity. you could use multiple accounts to help stay below that threshold, though that's probably against their terms. these are paxful's verification tiers: (https://paxful.com/support/en-us/articles/360021175133-Is-ID-verification-mandatory-) Quote -Users who reach an equivalent of $1,500 in trade volume or wallet activity must provide ID for verification. -Users who reach $10,000 in trade volume or wallet activity must provide ID and address verification. -Users who reach higher trade volumes or engage in certain wallet activity may undergo enhanced due diligence and may be asked for additional information. -All buyers of bitcoin for bank transfer must provide ID and address verification.

I'm not familiar with how they use that platform, but the most likely reasons are that they either stay just below the threshold, or have a bunch of other 'anonymous' accounts there each staying below the threshold, but combined the actual USD throughput increases significantly. Multi accounts however is against their terms; Quote You may not use multiple accounts to get an advantage in the number of listed offers or its position in the list. This is an unreasonable advantage in the natural market competition which is considered as system abuse. https://paxful.com/support/en-us/articles/360009979374-Rules-for-selling-bitcoinsThey do not directly refer to the threshold, but common sense is enough to know that it is also system abuse, but likely even worse.

Fair enough. I could have sworn I've exceeded that limit already, but oh well, it doesn't hurt to remain being able to trade :-\ Also, any information on what kind of suspension could be placed on your account if you were to be limited? Would you be able to withdraw your funds from your account freely (similar to a localbitcoins trading ban) but not be able to trade any further until verifying your account, or would you not be able to withdraw either?

To confirm, go to your completed trades (https://paxful.com/account/trades) page. If the successful trades turnaround (https://i.imgur.com/U9LR6SO.png)exceeded 1500$, you won't be able to trade. As for your second question, then from what I understood from this article (https://paxful.com/support/en-us/articles/360013971054-Increasing-trade-limits) is that KYC is only required for increasing your trading limits and not your withdrawal's. So you should be able to withdraw your funds just fine but personally, I wouldn't take the risk. Title: Re: Paxful verification? Post by: Harlot on January 04, 2020, 07:49:58 PM Fair enough.

Well I got a feeling that they are ignoring your activity as long as it doesn't hit the 10,000$ threshold multiple times which is one of the thresholds being used by AML procedures to flag an account I think you are still good to go. Also Paxful isn't known to be highly complacent when it comes to KYC and they are one of the exchanges that are still under the radar from the authorities which I think will be good news on your side. But @OP can you be honest and tell me if having KYC isn't really an option for you right now? Title: Re: Paxful verification? Post by: Kyraishi on January 04, 2020, 10:42:28 PM Fair enough.

Thanks for the info on the consequences of the suspension as well. I guess I'll have to move to another platform for trading or create a new account (latter is obviously risky). I'll consider verification but if I did so, I might as well just go with localbitcoins which has a lot more liquidity compared to paxful. Localcryptos looks interesting as well but its liquidity is sorely lacking also. Title: Re: Paxful verification?

Try make verification - Unknown reject reason happened. Always submit a document with clear quality, all sides shown, and no flash covering anything. If an error still persists, please contact customer support at support@paxful.com and we will review your case. Support not answer Moreover, I did not exceed the limit of $ 1,500; I had transactions worth $ 400. And finally i still can buy bitcoin LOL Not recommend to use paxfull they take you money and collect you documents and finally fuck you ass ;D ;D ;D |
