KYC is helpful to avoid errors when token sales. there are countries that reject crypto so that the people of that country are banned from participating in ICO sales. in terms of bounty kyc very help reduce cheating like multi account.

KYC is really a good thing for those investing in the coin. FOr we the bounty hunters I think its not good for us as pair what we are doing because we need anonymity.

Kyc is just an act of identification of the investors specially the big orders, however bounty hunters should have a freedom not to undergo in kyc because we are just a simple bounty hunters and not an investor. Even though somehow kyc is a good way of identification but it should be announced at the beginning of the campaign.

And KYC (know your customers), is a standard business practice globally. It’s a requirement from industry regulations to protect all stakeholders within the industry and its in the best business interest of any investment firm or investor, especially if there is a lot of money at stake.

although kyc is a good idea and can be trusted that any projects that asking kyc can be successful still it is also risky to trust your private info to others but as a participant if you really like the project it doesn't matter

Bounty rules is bounty rules. The manager's decision is final. If we are just a bounty hunter then we are just a simple person that must follow the rules. I hope that kyc will not be use in the future to use one identity for illegal purposes.

KYC is a good thing. I'd rather see even stricter rules applied to participants to ensure actual quality exposure for the project. Right now so many projects suffer from endless spam on for example Reddit or Twitter. Have you read the replies? Shameful and I don't understand why those replies still get any rewards.

I really appreciated about the project which required KYC because this will serve as the measure to avoid cheating in each account. With KYC each bounty participants will be truly identified if they are the true owner of accounts entry.

Kyc for some is a nuisance but an ICO may want to have a stricter kyc procedure to make a good impression and have it easier with the authorities who are at never ending lookout for money laundring and the like which is pathethic IMHO but they know better

Hi mate, I think KYC should have for everyone. As you know that bounty hunter is also an indirect investor. Bounty hunter giving their time to advertising to bring investor. So, they are also earning money to invest in the project. They can also take profit from the coin as like as an investor. So, I think bounty hunter should have the same value as an investor to the project. and KYC is really a good process to avoid any error or issue of money laundering and the funding of terrorists. We should support KYC.

Thanks.

I really have doubt in KYC requirement! It's quite dangerous for an ordinary people to just provide his complete identity to the group of people he does know at all. For me, bounty hunters should avoid such project because, identity is much precious than any token that they can give to us. Identity theft is rampant today in our world, we must take extra precaution in given our details to strangers, especially that this community is in international level.

No matter how much we study the ICO project, there will still be a certain degree of probability that the new project will be fraudulent. Therefore, I have always been against conducting KYC on bounty hunters. In addition, I consider it illegal in relation to bounty hunters, as KYC should only be carried out for the purpose of preventing dirty money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism.

When I am following bounties, I avoid joining a bounty that requires the participants the KYC procedure. I think it is not suitable for bounty hunters. The KYC procedure is only for investors and doesn't need to be applied for hunters. This is instead just suspicious like a sign to steal the hunter's identities.

For some projects, KYC is required to comply with Token-Sale's regulations and at the same time track the effectiveness of the marketing campaigns.
For bounty: KYC campaigns is the biggest nonsense I've ever faced. It should be scrapped because hunters will not complete the KYC just to get a few USD worth of tokens.

Actually its a rule from the government so that project member must bond to maintain KYC system from investors. So if anybody want to make investment must have to fillup KYC. But i think no government check KYC, its only a procedure nothing else. Because there are different countries investors so particular government can not do any thing with their documents.

thanks.

KYC should not be used to track the effectiveness of marketing campaigns. It can only be carried out for the purpose of preventing money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism. It is illegal to use it for other purposes. In general, KYC is a violation of the right to privacy of every person and therefore such a violation can only be for a certain permitted purpose and cannot be arbitrarily applied.
KYC against bounty hunters is illegal, since we do not fund ICO projects, but only provide the agreed advertising services for this project.

Its because that KYC process only for investors. Its ridiculous to see a bounty or airdrop conducting some sort of kyc. Like do they even fund the tokens? Not and thats not appropriate to implement. There are cases that good projects have kyc but of course you need to make sure you are giving it to a good company.

If KYC requirements are coming from the legitimate platforms which are required by the governments for its effort to curve the anti-money laundering problems then it is good. but if the platform is not legit or shady I think KYC is not good because it might end our data in the wrong hands.

KYC will be very helpful if it stays in the right corridor.  I feel a little unfair when discussing KYC, why are only investors and bounty hunters needed for KYC? Supposedly, the CEO and the team of one of the new projects that are currently conducting ICO or IEO are also required to do KYC.

Within the fast changing digital space where users, companies, and financial institutions interact together, there’s a need to preserve users’ data. Data protection is inherent within the blockchain, as well as the implementation of innovative solutions for financial institutions banks or new bounty projects  concerned with digital identity.

In my own little way, KYC must suppose to be applicable only for the investors who will join in every project ico.
But for the bounty hunters, it shouldn't apply, because they're the main reason why the project become successful most of the time.

Some illegal projects ask kyc which is very much dangerous and risky. A few days ago CLIPX project ask kyc from investors and bounty Hunters. We all provided our personal information and database but alas they flewed away from website and all others social networks media. I think kyc is very dangerous.

I don't think kyc is as good as it is now with more scams through kyc and the quality of bounty campaigns is declining a lot by doing kyc they use our personal information for other purposes in which case it is better for all of us to stay away from kyc. This will reduce the number of scammers there will be no barriers to transactions.

From the first time Kyc began to be applied, many had no sympathy because it was too open to take people's data without us knowing who needed it and for what, but the development was that Kyc was widely used by those who were looking for profit because many did not want to participate if there was Kyc but at the beginning it was not said But when the end of the project was compulsory Kyc were so many resigned and that was the opportunity they were looking for.
for now it is not recommended to join the bounty if it requires kyc because now there are many fraudulent bounties.

I think KYC is a really good thing; However, that does not apply to bounty hunters. Bounty hunters work on the promotion of the project for a very short time, they sell the tokens as a reward. But I think it is really important for investors to have KYC, because they will keep their assets there for a long time; It has requirements to protect their assets.

KYC Process is not 100℅ safe. Because somehow, your identity is vulnerable to use by unknown person. You are completely incontrolled of your identification once submitted to unreliable one. However, if the project promise the security and they are really honest to their words. I think, we should try the process so that they will know who we are and where we come from.

In order to develop any project and increase the popularity of the project, people have to believe that the project is good. Different types of documents are needed to prove it. As I think kyc is one of them. Because any project has rules for kyc, then that project people believe more. Because if the national identity card is given in the data entries. Then people are able to believe that real company. So I think the issue is good for the development of any project.

Recently a project named ( relevant ) they offer a good coin Via airdop but alot of user make fake account ( even more than 10 ) . If they implement kyc process then their will not any problems like this.
Sow kyc having its advantages as well disadvantages also .

Yes. KYC is good, at least to reduce the risk of identify theft, money laundering, financial fraud, and the financing of criminal organizations. KYC helps manage risks and helps to understand customer behaviors. Projects asking for KYC meant well for all participants, and it shows the determination of the project team to deliver a successful campaign.

Do not forget that KYC should be carried out only for the purpose of preventing money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism. Bounty hunters, participating in bounty campaigns, do not invest their money and therefore it is illegal to apply KYC to them.
In addition, most ICO teams are not able to ensure the security of storage of collected confidential information and generally do not know what to do with it next, where and how to store it. It is very dangerous. Only government agencies should have the right to collect such information; various temporary teams should not have this right.

It depends on the purpose of kyc and if the said project is worth it. I have nothing against kyc personally but most of my friends don't want anything to do with projects requesting for personal details. Most times kyc get introduced cause of abuse and multiple account spamming which is quite understandable. It is always right to introduce kyc at the beginning of any project agreement or campaign not towards the end or at the end.

AFAIK, KYC will be never a good thing. How can we say it as a good thing when we sent them very important data of ours to the unknown people. We may worry about the security of the data, where they probably use it for untrusted and irresponsible goals. So, if you are joining such a project and they need KYC, it is better to ensure that they are legit, not a scam, and also guarantee the data security

Honestly, I never think that KYC is a good thing. Why we must do KYC procedure, it gives our secret data to unknown people in crypto space. I think as long as we can avoid KYC procedure, it is better to not follow KYC procedure. It is very risky and not true to do for crypto bounty especially.

We mustn't take ourselves in a too risky bussiness, we are in the internet space, we don't really know what the projects are. So, the best way is too choose a safe way.

I am not really a fan of KYC not because I don't like things to be done in the proper way but because I cannot trust any of these projects and their way of handling things, many of these project will appear to be legit from the beginning but end up a total mess after investors have submitted their KYC. In my suggestion, I would have prefer that the team ask people in those countries that are under restriction from investing into crypto to do KYC rather than ask everyone to do KYC. I don't think I can give out my details for some sales.

I think it is better to do KYC for the safety of investors' money; However, participants in the bounty campaign do not need KYC, because they receive a small portion of the project as a reward, most of which they sell as soon as they receive it.

Thank you very much to write such an important matters. Every exchange requires KYC but is really a security concern for the investors. It becomes more risky for the bounty hunters when payment is obligatory to a specific exchange where KYC is compulsory.

KYC bears the personal information which can be used in scamming or hacking. Again it can be used for the identification of the real person. So KYC is necessary for some cases as well as risky for sometimes. In such case everyone should justify the platform accurately whether it is safe or unsafe. KYC should not be disclosed in any unsafe place.

You here have mixed together investing in cryptocurrency for the purpose of laundering dirty money and financing terrorist organizations using cryptocurrency with the work of bounty hunters, whom the ICO team themselves pay with their tokens for services rendered. KYC for bounty hunters is generally absurd, because we do not invest our money in ICOs, and therefore cannot commit these illegal actions. Therefore, it is illegal to require us to undergo KYC.
You also confused the work of exchanges and ICO teams here. In some cases, exchanges have the right to demand the passage of KYC from their clients, but the ICO operates on completely different legal grounds, and most often without any legal basis.

If done for the right reasons, it is definitely a good idea to ensure checks are put in place to forestall fraud, money laundering and funding for terrorist organisations. However, these days, some unscrupulous elements have hijacked the process and are using submitted documents for the wrong reasons. Some have gone as far as selling these documents on the dark Web for cheap gains. One has to be really careful when submitting KYC documents.

I don't see any good thing about KYC in bounty hunters. crypto is known to be decentralize so why give to anyone our identity.  I'm quite disappointed in kyc rule given by project managers but I can't do anything it's their project so they can impose whatever they want. I just don't want to join if I've known kyc in the first place.

KYC is actually a good thing because it can help remove fraud and help in catching the scam project, and also bring transparency to the crypto project.

It's advisable for users to carry out due diligence before releasing their personal details on any platform, especially with the increase in fake and scammy projects in the crypto space. Many fake projects spring up just to take people's funds and personal information after which they disappear suddenly.

For me, I can't release my KYC because of airdrop while most of the supposed project developers are anonymous.

KYC is really need for those who are creating new account in any exchange or any kind of business platform. The business owner have to know the Clint information. This is very much necessary. But in some causes Kyc is not good especially for bounty hunters. Now a days kyc prove negativity in most causes because scammer are collect information by kyc.

Well, KYC is good especially when the project has proven beyond reasonable doubts to be successful. It is a requirement that has been implemented by the authorities of many countries in other to eliminate the issue of money laundering and the funding of terrorists. Anyway, investors must do an intense study into the project to ascertain that their identities will be protected and be used for only verification purposes as stated by the KYC rules.

I think that KYC is very helpful for detecting fraud and verifying that investors involved in a project are "real" and can be held responsible if the government asks for data from investors involved in the project. But the problem is, someone's identity can be bought and sold at this time, so I think only give your personal information to platforms that really have regulations that protect the privacy and data of users.

KYC can be a good thing or a bad thing depending on the motives of requesting it. Indeed it is good to reduce fraud and money laundering including minimizing multiple accounts being used for bounty campaigns but it can also be very dangerous if you submit your personal data to fraudulent projects as it can be used for bad intents. Hence we all ought to be very vigilant and do some thorough due diligence before giving your data carelessly online.

I don't think authentication with more frauds through authentication is as good as it is right now, and the quality of reward campaigns by authentication is very low, they use our personal information for other purposes, so stay away from better authentication for all of us. This will reduce the number of scammers and there will be no barriers to transactions.

Nobody likes the idea of KYC.

And why do many argue that the КУС procedure is good? KУС for a bountist is evil because he has to pay with his documents for a cheap reward.
Вountist do not invest their money in any projects and, moreover, do not launder them, so the procedure for verifying their identity should not concern them.
People who have  2 or more accounts can easily pass the КУС with other people's documents, which are freely sold on the Internet.

Good or not it depends on the company that provides the KYC. But mostly it has big risks, so it is better to avoid KYC if it is not needed.

Different perceptions about KYC can happen because not everyone wants to give their personal identity known to others. Moreover, those who ask us not to know, whether the existence of the institution or not, this obviously makes people afraid.

but on the one hand they ask for kyc with the aim that what is given does not fall on people who cannot be accounted for and the possibility of cheating can also occur.

both have arguments that are actually the same as true and we can not say that one is not good, it remains now whether we want to kyc or not, that's the last guideline.
But it is accustomed that Kyc is informed from the beginning, not when it is about to finish, it will be announced because it is clear that there is an intention to benefit ourselves.

If you think that KYC has a positive effect on the safety of a project, then tell me exactly how its safety will be increased if members of its team own our data?  Where and for how long will our identification data be stored and what will happen next?  No one has the answers to these questions, because KYC is illegal for bounty participants.  According to the FATF recommendation of 06/21/2019, KYC can only be carried out for the purpose of preventing money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism and only for transactions over one thousand euros.  No ICO team has been empowered to violate our privacy rights.

Never seen any reasonable usage of forcing to pass KYC in crypto. It ruins the whole idea of anonymous and yet transparent transactions.
As we have hundreds of exchanges, there is no reason to trade exactly on an exchange that asks to pass KYC. Same is with daily limits. Just divide your balances and trade on several exchanges. KYC in bounties does not help either.

KYC is legal. In fasct it is a good move to know the costumer's from different places. The identity of individuals must be record.

KYC is legal, of course, but only zokonno in the case when the project itself is 100% legal. When the project team itself will pass KYC and will be legally responsible for the safety of your data. I do not know of such projects. At best, there is a profile in Linkedin. And it seems to me unnecessary to trust your documents to someone unknown.

KYC is actually good and bad.
1. KYC is good for market verification such as BINANCE, BITREX, BITFOREX and market that have high trust.
2. KYC is not recommended to take part in any emerging project and bounties or airdrop. because new project appear and the bounty cannot be confirmed if they can be successful and our data is very vulnerable to being misused by scammer.

NOTE !! think longer if you want to KYC on a project.

Just as a project requires KYC & Investors need also kyc. There are many countries whose crypto is illegal. They run out of scam projects and run away with a lot of money. If there have Kyc, their investor will become conscious. On the other hand I think Hunters don't need Kyc.  Because, they are part of marketing in project, which is worldwide. If cryptocurrencies are illegal in any country, they will not be affected.

If you want to invest in any cryptocurrency project, then I think kyc should be rather mandatory, because many countries prohibit any actions with cryptocurrencies and therefore cryptocurrency companies should see from which country you are from in order to avoid various risks, but with the bounty sphere, everything is already here different, of course I am against kyc for bounty companies.

If we are really going to fulfill KYC, we must ensure that the platform or project to verify is really legal and trusted. Because we don't know them, we can't ensure whether they are trusted or not.

For bounty hunters, KYC brings only one problem anyway.  ICO teams used KYC very often in order not to fraudulently pay bounty hunters the tokens they earned.  In addition, KYC in relation to bounty hunters is illegal, since we do not invest our money in the project, and therefore we cannot launder dirty money or finance terrorism, for which KYC should be carried out.

In my opinion, what you are saying that KYC is convenient in exchanges. can be proven because we can see their quality and there will be no fear that will occur.
However, it is something that we cannot avoid if a new project does not ask for KYC at the beginning but at the end of the project requires KYC. obviously this is a scam to get rid of most of the participants who don't want any KYC and I don't like the way.

These scammers can find or buy other persons documents and still pass KYC. So passing KYC wont really help to fight against them.

KYC wallet verification request can help them verify where you are using it, and getting back your wallet will be easier when your information is exposed, and better security.

It is very good to do KYC because if there is someone, one can know the truth. If you do KYC of an account, it can be identified by personal picture or by personal information.  What you do with a personal photo or ID card can be identified as your own by everyone.

Of course KYC is a good idea.  Because for this KYC your ID or account is verified.  If you later have a problem with your ID, you can fix it.  Otherwise it will be difficult without KYC.  On the other hand, you are presenting your personal information coast through KYC. However, in this case, you should be careful and verify and submit your personal information.

KYC is legal. In fasct it is a good move to know the costumer's from different places. The identity of individuals must be record.
In this case you need to be careful in the office as your data is on record.  He can do any harm to you with your data. So be sure to make sure that your data does not fall into the wrong hands. Thank you.

well, it depends on your choice. If don't do the KYC then you would probably miss many of the bounty programs and if there is someone who is after your data than he/she can hack your system instead of hacking the whole exchange.

KYC should only be conducted for the purpose of preventing money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism. Bounty hunters do not invest their money, so they cannot be suspected of the above illegal activities. Therefore, the requirement to pass the KYC is a violation of citizens' rights to privacy.

Well, KYC is good especially when the project has proven beyond reasonable doubts to be successful.

Anyway, investors must do an intense study into the project to ascertain that their identities will be protected and be used for only verification purposes as stated by the KYC rules.


As far as, I personally don't believe about KYC . Because I see several projects are scam that want to fill the KYC. Sorry.

KYC should be the other way around. Members of teams submitting projects should do so. Their faces, their ID numbers, passports, driving licenses... And keep all that data in something like a central registry. So I would be willing to do it too. That would be the only way to eliminate scams, or at least many.

Please explain how can passing KYC could determine if a person will dump the price or not. If I send you my drivers license, could you tell if I'm going to dump altcoin as soon as projects is listed, or will be holding it till product release?
Actually the team does not care who bought their altcoins. They only care that this person should be from a country, that did not ban cryptocurrency. That is it.

But don't forget that this ALTS token is worthless on exchanges. And I very much doubt that its value will ever rise. And I don’t understand at all why there is a KYC on the forum. Just to get candy wrappers? I am against any verification. It is one thing when they know something about us and quite another when we ourselves put our documents on public display.

At present time KYC only use for IEO investors. Some days ago it used to bounty hunters when they abuse it for mislead. After POA kyc has stopped for bounty hunters and now only for IEO or ICO members needed. I think KYC is not a big factor because organization must keep it in safe zone for their business matter otherwise no body will come here for investment and project will also not succeed.

How will your verified wallet be protected if the exchange is hacked and your funds withdrawn? Not only will your funds be stolen, but your documents will also be stolen so that they can then be resold on the darknet. Moreover, you also cannot trust your documents to projects carried out by IСO. Internet and security are incompatible concepts.

KYC cannot protect itself against hacking because hacking is beyond KYC. The protocol of KYC is just want to make sure they cater the right person in 1:1 ratio. They avoid the possibility of 1:5 wallets in one owner. Also in some cases KYC is just for the record. ;)

The purpose behind KYC as the name suggests (Know Your Customer) is to suggests is getting to know the people behind every operations on exchanges in aim to prevent money laundering and financial misappropriation. Thinking deep in to this, I see no harm taking on KYCs procedures if intentions are clear.
However, in return of taking on KYCs, customers need to be given maximum assurance, personal information provided are very safe and not being taken advantage of by third parties.

Yes @bitbit97 but the security of users' documents is the responsibility of the project team.

If someone sends documents modified with Photoshop, the solution is very simple if for example, they ask you for a video to prove your true identity, some banks do it in my country to avoid scams.

KYC is a good form of knowing the people participating in a project as investors, to know know your background and information, so as to avoid being hijacked or going against rules of the country. This process also has a way of reducing the rate of some fraudulent acts in the crypto world. Though, at times it can be so annoying when it comes to exchanges, cause when you have a little coin to sell off in an exchange, and the exchange starts demanding for KYC Verification. Where as the trade you are to carryout there is not up to 1BTC.
Well, for the bounty hunters, it is good to remain anonymous, cause our own form of promoting the project is easy, and when it comes to social media, our identity is brought forth.
KYC is good, though it might be annoying and frustrating at tines, but its good.

I still think that KYC should go in two directions, users and team members. What you say is not safe for the user, it could work if the registration was done centrally, but giving our personal data for each project in which we participate seems crazy to me. We wouldn't know where our data is going and it could end up on the deep web for sale.

Good thing for the team or the users? If you are talking about the users' views, KYC won't be a good thing, it is always a high risk for their secret identities. There is too much secret data that the KYC procedure asks the users and it should be in detail sometimes. I never think it is safe enough for the users. However, it is sometimes a must to fulfill because the team members of a platform want to make sure if the user is acceptable to join.
