Title: Bitcoin Exchanges and Privacy? KYC? Post by: OROBTC on July 06, 2014, 04:09:57 AM ...
I have read a few suggestions here to just send BTC to exchanges, and then wait a while and have them sent back (perhaps even in part) all with the idea of giving some extra privacy (vs. using mixing services). But I have a question: Do you lose privacy when using the BTC exchanges, even just to send some over there and have them send BTC back? "Know your customer" rules? Etc. I am interested in privacy for my BTC holdings, and if I have to pay a mixing service (or two!) just a little bit to hide my BTC and wallet connections, that is OK with me. If the exchanges insist on knowing a lot about their customers, that is not OK with me. Thoughts? Title: Re: Bitcoin Exchanges and Privacy? KYC?
