Is KYC benefit to crypto people or not

[Kimonoe]

Actually I don't like kyc because our data is known by someone and this is really uncomfortable, because there is fear that our data might be misused if that person has an evil plan. But indeed if you want to buy bitcoin, kyc is usually needed in most exchanges.

many people have opinions like you, many are worried about their personal data if used for bad actions. but unfortunately many projects require it, so we have to really analyze projects that guarantee not to abuse our identity, because there is no guarantee for that

KYC is very important for the crypto community and users, crypto has entered the world of government and companies, this indicates mass adoption, if KYC is not done maybe money laundering will always be done through crypto currencies, and of course the view of crypto currencies will get worse

Even though there is a KYC, there are still money laundering in cryptocurrency because it is so easy to stay anonymous with cryptocurrency and through the mixers that we have for the cryptocurrencies, it is still a difficulty for authorities to chase the launderers down. In terms of money laundering, KYC doesn't help.

cannot always silence large cases, but it can work well for prevention for laundering activities under $ 1 million, better than no preventive measures at all to make crypto reputation not too bad. We have also read the case between binance and users who use the mixing option from Wassabi wallet, to overcome this problem, kyc is certainly very necessary.

It is necessary as long as you give your data to trusted agencies. Legit and licensed exchanges are okay but for those fly by the night exchanges, you have to think twice. Those unscrupulous groups, some are taking your Data and sold to dark web especially your Identifications, so we should always alert on this.

I do not appreciate projects that require KYC. I do not know what they need it for? I only KYC at exchanges because it's required to trade or withdraw money from exchanges. If any project requires KYC to participate in their project or receive a bounty reward then I will definitely never join.

It seems to me that initially you need to study all the reasons why there was a requirement to provide KYC and you also need to take into account your attitude to all these reasons.  If we are talking about the legalization of money that has been earned by criminal means, then the requirement for passport data from investors is quite justified.  If it comes to the requirements of passport data from the participants of the Bounty company, then there is no reason for this, since the Bounty campaign pays money for the work done and therefore the KYC requirement is illegal.  Regarding the provision of passport data on cryptocurrency exchanges, there is also a real explanation for this when the exchange acts legally and it needs to report for large amounts of funds used by customers.

I disagree. Fundamentally, it's not important for crypto. In fact, the spirit behind cryptocurrency is to allow anonymous payment, free from government control, that means KYC is against the crypto main value. But looking at the situation right now, it's the necessary thing for people who want to trade crypto-fiat conveniently.

I hope one way this isn't the situation anymore and we can do anything without KYC.

in general, KYC is indeed contrary to the principle of crypto itself. it's just that, in general, the benefits of KYC are quite a lot, and as he said. although there are many gaps to trick it, but in general, KYC does make money laundering difficult. however, although in our eyesight it is detrimental, KYC makes some people benefit from the company to get permission to develop from regulations or the state.

you dont ask your self why kyc is needed on exchanges but you question kyc on other things   .

 i think both are the same  . kyc wont be there if no for a reason  .  if you are willing to allow kyc when you use exchanges then it should only be easier for you to do kyc too on other stuff's because you know how its done but to some that didt know kyc yet , they will feel uncomfortable at first and doubt if they will do it or not  .

Are you serious? It seems to me that you do not take into account the fact that documents of real users are sold on the black market at an extremely cheap price.
So, any person laundering money can afford to purchase it and you will never know who is behind this person.
In order to eradicate money laundering, you need to act differently.

Requiring KYC is really scary especially when joining to some campaign that requires it becauss you arent sure if the project will become successful or not.  It like surrending all your data to the company and you dont knlw where they will going to used it.  I also mostly do KYC when it come to exchanging to bitcoin to easy withdraw it.

[luckyflop]

KYC is really necessary for current exchanges, because the laws are different in each country and they need to know where their customers are from to take appropriate measures. But today KYC has become abused, most bounty and airdrop also require us to KYC. I do not understand what they do this for? Selling personal documents in the black market? or use it for evil purposes ... Be really careful about our documentation

[iamsheikhadil]

I think kyc is only good when it is implemented by crypto exchanges when a user transacts huge volume every day or week or month because of obvious reasons like money laundering and other stuffs. But I think kyc in general is obviously a bad idea when it comes to crypto as the motto of crypto is decentralization.

What you say is the truth, that KYC is very improper to use for things that cannot be accounted for. The problem is that the personal data we provide does not guarantee it will not be misused. if for exchanges with large values it could be used because it might be able to ensure that what is done from acts against the law.

depending on the use I think, the positive side is that we can track and find out an address, if there is no KYC, of course it is very impossible to do, and one of them is to prevent negative actions

I also agree with you mate I think in crypto we should not consider KYC important as important some casino has made it. Better give it to the demanded casino if you feel okay with it but some people feel insecure so they avoid talking about the investments or about their personal information’s so they shouldn't be asked by sites and if it’s basic rules we can try some other site.

some people believe if their data is not secure and afraid used for other thing, thats why they hate it. for me, it can be good or bad depend on who the party that want to keep our data. kyc is good for money laundry and other crime, they can make action if something gone wrong

[Shasha80]

I am among those who do not agree to apply KYC in the world of cryptocurrency. In my opinion KYC is detrimental to crypto people,
because our personal data can misused. And also contrary to cryptocurrency that is decentralized. So from that I always avoid exchanges
or projects which enforces KYC. There have been many cases of buying and selling personal data in the black market, most of the data
they get from several website that applies KYC. So from that until now I always oppose the KYC procedure because it does not benefit
crypto people.

KYC only benefits to 'someone' who want to charge taxes and who want to track every single thing people are doing.
Best thing would be if people create some other decentralized form of verification.

actually, it's all a matter of regulation. some countries require investment companies to know who their investors are. it aims to prevent money laundering. however, some companies take advantage of this for other reasons. however, there are benefits and losses depending on who manages the KYC.

I accept what you say that KYC has benefits and disadvantages depending on who runs KYC. because obviously the personal data that we send can be misused for things that we can't avoid if the data that receives it can't be held responsible. especially at this time crypto is in a state of lethargy and the request seems to have been an obligation, even though the projects that are running are not always going well even many are scam. and whether the data that has been taken can be accounted for?

I'm aware that KYC is required because it is one of the compliance before an exchange or a project to operate. For me as a user, I do not see KYC as advantage and for me it is a disadvantage for me. There are investors like me who want to stay anonymous so I do not want to participate in a project that requiring KYC. I want my identity to stay hidden all the times.
