Huh? that's very concerning. Does okex not have a profile page or some sort where it shows the user's full name? I don't think you would enter your real name for a test where you would be uploading a fake ID. Try checking.


That's probably their korean branch which has already shut down


Google Translate:

The answer lies in what you quoted 

No, you need to undergo KYC before you can do anything else in binance.US


Binance.com is also out of the question as explained by users above. But if you're a US person, you shouldn't be using an exchange that restricts US persons and has a hidden KYC--- this means they can ask you to verify your account at any time.

Tried to change the language and was redirected to the corresponding local site, I suppose that's it (can be found on your upper right)

Pretty weird to put it there if they also publish local-only news, very likely to get the idea that it was made only for translated news from the main.

Confirming my unverified account can still trade but that's because they haven't given me a deadline yet-- which seems to be given thru email

From what I understand, there is no one size fits all deadline

That's right, here's a tutorial how to: What is a Limit Order & How to Set It on Binance

and in case your order was placed and you wanna cancel it:

(In classic layout)

1. Scroll down and you should see an order book
2. Make sure you're on 'Open Orders'
  -if you're confused, you can see the guy in the video I linked looking at his open orders at 1:16
3. Look for the order you just made and on its right, you can hit 'Cancel'

Normally, you would still be able to trade until your given deadline has passed.

You can always do a test trade using the lowest possible amount to double check. What you wanna do is place an order that is near impossible to be filled immediately so you will still have an ample time to cancel it in case the order is successfully placed. The easiest way to do this would be to sell at the lowest price, for instance lets say 123 coin sells at 300 satoshis, you can try to place a sell order at 1 satoshi. If your account is withdraw-only, you should not be able to successfully place an order.


Hmmm. I say check if this is true first, there are a lot of no-kyc DEXs for erc-20 tokens

1. Look up your coin/token in coingecko then check its 'markets'
2. Pick a DEX and check directly, see https://www.coingecko.com/en/dex

Note: dyor before you trust any of these exchanges

Got a similar voucher weeks ago. The catch is it's non-withdrawable and you'll only be getting the dust interest until it expires.




Not a regular binance user but I do trade there from time to time. Last was a week ago.

Hold up. I thought there is no one-size-fits-all deadline as binance is implementing the withdraw-only in phases (for existing accounts) and we are to be informed about our account's deadline thru email.

So far I received no email from binance about this and so my account is still the same as usual, can deposit, can trade etc...

There's also the authenticity checkers some exchanges have for their handles. Try to look for it at the bottom part, they're usually placed there.

Listing some:

Binance - https://www.binance.com/en/official-verification
Kucoin - https://www.kucoin.com/cert?lang=en_US
Huobi - https://www.huobi.com/en-us/verification/
Bybit - https://www.bybit.com/en-US/verification



but still, no blind trusting cause they can be compromised. For instance if you see an exchange's legit website/social media account posting a bitcoin doubler, it is not to be trusted.

Can we get an update to this? I see people still having the 2BTC daily withdrawal limit when it should have been .06BTC... wouldn't be weird if the same happens again.

Well, it does show up as bybit owned domain when entered in their authenticity checker, check for yourself: https://www.bybit.com/en-US/verification



but it wouldn't hurt to double check and ask this using another channel, maybe in reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/Bybit/)

The best time would be this instant. But if you're prepared for a much greater risk, you can wait before your account becomes withdraw only. Note that not everyone has the same deadline, binance should inform you thru email, should look like this:



The daily withdrawal limit depends per account, you can check yours by going to the withdrawal page of any coin. Also, yes, if your limit is .06BTC and have more than .06BTC, the excess would have to go thru the next day.

You should still be able to trade unless your account becomes withdraw-only or you have other situation which only applies to you e.g. suspicious account flag

"complete confidentiality and anonymity" when there's no way for users to verify if there are no logs at all and factors out of your control existing like browser fingerprinting and authorities telling you what to do 🥴

Binance is under a lot of pressure from authorities, it wouldn't be weird if they take back their NO kyc but withdraw OK promise. Best to not feel secure about this and withdraw funds ASAP if you're someone who doesn't want to verify their account.

and IIRC @jerry0 is a US person (?), another reason to withdraw ASAP if so.

I wouldn't trust a store with no other online presence, very cheap looking website, unknown team and whereabouts.

Can't suggest any shop but an alternative is to buy a gift card of a reputable shop using your preferred coin, see Gift cards providers.

A good start would be to stay away from news sites with misleading headlines. I recommend coindesk, here is their take on this: Laos Authorizes Six Companies to Start Crypto Mining which fits better as there's no enough info to support the "to legalize" claim.

If you're wondering why your unverified account limit still hasn't changed to .06BTC, same situation. I asked binance about this weeks ago cause it's way passed Aug 23, below was their response



Fast forward to today and I still have 2BTC daily withdrawal limit. But I've only tried withdrawing small amounts there ever since the "KYC for all" announcement, anymore and I wouldn't feel safe.

From their response, this whole situation looks more of a mistake on their end, I wouldn't think my account is exempted from anything.

Looks like it has only been a day old. I'd give it more time. It will probably be manually credited to you hence why it wouldn't be that fast. Nevertheless, you should contact support ASAP to get reassured and maybe give a heads up to them as well.

P.S. after almost half a year, it's nice to see some progress on your case OP 

Not exactly from Oct 19th. According from them, they will roll it out in phases from the day they published the said article thru Oct 19, 2021 (UTC) which means they will do a batch of people each time within that time frame and your account is most probably in line for it.


Like OmegaStarScream, you should receive an email before your account gets restricted but this is supposing no errors are made like delays, binance skipping you, etc...
