all i see is USDT deposit, and i dont even think that's US Dollars. As you can see im a newbie. and kucoin has no live person to help you, figures.
Yes its not US dollars. Its USDT - tether - stable coin pegged 1:1 to US dollar. Crypto deposits, crypto to crypto trading, crypto withdrawals does not need KYC on kucoin but if you want to deposit/withdraw Fiats kYC is mandatory on almost every platworm. P2P trades are all you have if you want to avoid KYC and use fiats. But after you buy USDT somwhere, you can deposit it to kucoin and trade ... but i do not recomend that, as Potato Chips said:
It's not advisable to play around with centralized exchanges if you're one of the restricted persons as they hold your funds but if you decided to dive in, at least ask what happens if kucoin were to ask for your KYC and your country isn't supported... but imo not worth the risk/trouble.
One day they will lock you account saying - "we've recorded strange activity from your account" or something like that and they will force you to do KYC. Just like binance locked my account 2 days ago and asked for face scan (i did ID KYC 2 years ago ... now even this is not enough).
