I think it also makes sense to be a reason why there are some countries that reject bitcoin, the hidden identity is only a pseudonym used and is very difficult to track,

As we all know that one thing that might hinder the acceptance of the bitcoin system for the government is the hidden identity of the members. Local exchange should do intensified KYC so as to avoid the system of cryptocurrency being abused by other members as well like money laundering, funding of terrorist groups and others as well. Some of the country had done this things already and the question is would favor to do KYC on your local exchange?
it is very possible that we reveal our identity as long as we do not break the law, because it is impossible for us to do business without knowing who we are partnering with

I think by being open to things we do not want can be prevented, such as terrorist financing or laundering money, because the authorities will always oversee the movement of money that is not fair, and very good in the future because the purchase and sale of crypto currencies is safer, and the bitcoin currency can be more trusted.

This is one of the purpose of having KYC so that our identities will be reveal and to be identified in case if there is anomaly during our transactions. We just hope that the local exchanges will always abide the law of private data policy so that our identities will not be steal or else the government regulation will become useless.
Once you passed the KYC you already revealing your personal data to the exchange, revealing identity is just a kind of losing a term of being anonymous. This policy, I try to avoid but there is sometimes you need to reveal first your identity before you have earned in crypto.
I afraid the possible happen in the future of this implementing KYC, nowadays whether we it or not crypto and banking system is being regulated.

A vote against the legislative Assembly. Personally, I do not consider it a violation of my rights. On the contrary, I will feel calmer if I know other market participants and I will be sure that these are not bots.

Their reasoning behind that way of thinking is that they aren't wealthy enough to become a victim of theft and whatnot. They don't realize how stupid they make themselves look by talking this level of nonsense.

I kind of understand the general apathy towards their own data. They simply don't know any better regarding the potential risks, and it's hard to blame them considering how new all of this internet boom is -- it hasn't even lasted one generation. The concept of protecting your online privacy hasn't even reached the mainstream until a few years ago. Things are starting to change, with websites being open about their privacy policies, etc. so people are bound to wise up as we go along. But yeah, the "nothing to hide nothing to fear" mentality is just stupid.

That being said, I guess it just boils down to trust for those who are informed. I have nothing against sharing your data for as long as you know the potential risks. I just find it funny that people seem to feel like they don't have a choice with KYC, like exchanges are absolutely necessary.
Yeah absolutely there  is a risk if you divulge your personal information, your  personal identity, but  for  the trading site  who will ask your KYC will be held responsible of all the information given by their patrons, in the world of cryptocurrency trust  is the essential things.

KYC/AML will destroy nothing but the convenience of using of an exchange, and even then, there will be some people that won't mind.
If people are not valuing their privacy enough by handing over precious information to ICOs requiring KYC/AML verification, then they definitely won't mind handing over their information to an established exchange.

It's shocking to me how people don't care about anything as long as they are in a position allowing them to potentially make profit. Some people blatantly admit that they don't care about it.

Since there is no clear regulation of the crypto currency, I would prefer to hide information about me.  And suddenly they will want to accuse me of illegal money laundering.  So at least no one will know that it's me.

Yepp, KYC is another part that will slowly destroy the concept of cryptocurrency. 'Money laundering and funding of terrorist' is news which cannot be proven by facts, they only plan and look forward to the future of cryptocurrency with suspicion. However, we cannot prevent and make Banking Cartels become stronger, because until now, many cryptocurrency users are still relying on banks to exchange cryptocurrency into money fiat, there is no special way prepared by cryptocurrency to overcome this.

I don't necessarily support KYC, but I thought I'd point out that KYC/AML is required of any business that carry money laundering risk. It doesn't matter if they deal with fiat or Bitcoin which means it doesn't discriminate against crypto.

It's also targeted towards businesses themselves, not individual people -- meaning anyone can skip it by simply not dealing with businesses that implement them. Let's not forget that Bitcoin was originally meant to be peer-to-peer anyway. KYC/AML will destroy nothing but the convenience of using of an exchange, and even then, there will be some people that won't mind.

yes this can be one reason why most countries have not issued a decision about bitcoin, because maybe the state also wants clarity about the use of bitcoin user identity and so on, but there may be many more reasons about the country because the country's decision must be considered.

So basically you are talking in favor of strict KYC norms for the crypto currency user and you think that it would progress the market by effectively eliminating the criminals from the system! I don't think it will help the cryptos grow in the way of progress, instead it will make the Banking Cartels stronger and they will continue to have the upper hand to your own financial decision. Cryptos look good in its original way. Any attempt to temper with the originality will only create roadblock from the crypto community.

Regulations are somewhat necessary but over-regulation will kill the entire market and we will effectively transfer the power to the regulatory authority to take financial decisions on our behalf. That's not good and I would not favor that!

Regulations make us aware that the government is fully in control of everything that is done by its people, I just have an expectation that decentralized system will make many new people come and understand the decentralization system with certainty.

*Not some of the countries. All of the countries have at least individuals doing crimes with involvement or help from Bitcoin. To answer your question if local exchanges have been required by the government then I won't be mad about it. It just makes the competition standard and equal. If the stock exchange requires brokers to identify their customers first they should also do it to the crypto market period. Identifying yourself as a user or trader would help the government as you are cooperating with their rules.

impossible to enforce on the wider crypto space though, surely people see this? Yes, it will happen on any legal entity/centralized exchange, because that is their world, they have jurisdiction over it. Standard and equal, sure... in which jurisdiction and for how much of the wider population? How can it be standardized and equal across the board (whether or not you think that is a good thing), when it is literally impossible to enforce except via centralised legal entities,,, all the innovation and excitement will simply remain in the open-source/decentralized elements and the centralized bits will always be playing catch up... stale and controlled.

kyc/aml is only about control, and infiltrating the crypto space with the corrupt, fraud that is the Legal system.

But yes, centralized exchanges (and DEX with elements of CEX or Legal entities) will no doubt bend over to take the KYC/AML compliance demands.

Anyone who is interested in their own privacy or freedom will steer as clear as possible from these... proper DEX/atomic swaps and private smart contracts will be the go-to ways of exchanging... though yes there will be compromises in convenience or trade speed initially.

THE SUCCESS OF BITCOIN EXCHANGE IS THE CREDIBILITY OF ID KEPT HIDDEN .BUT IF THE LAW ENFORCES YOU TO DO SO YOU HAVE TO.IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO REMAIN VISIBLE RATHER THAN HIDDEN TO AVOID FUTURE PROBLEMS.

If it requires then i would give my information and also because i need to use that exchange. If i would have another option, i would choose those not requiring KYC.

It is not right to demand KYC on the exchange, why should I do this to use my own money?
