KYC is supposed to be for banking institures. Like for my house I took a loan and needed KYC for the bank so they know I dont run off without the money. It is also for money laundering.

KYC in crypto is misused and it is disgusting. Never give your KYC out your life is more important then that.

With your KYC some can steal your identity and life. When I give the bank my KYC I kow it is safe. When I give some random idiot online running an ICO then it is not safe.

BEWARE THE BOUNTY KYC TRAP!!!!

Dishonest projects that ask KYC only after you finished working for them (sometimes months of work) if you do not give them the KYC they wont pay you. THey hold your money as randsom. Only the most pitiful and pathetic projects use this tactic. No legit project will ever ask KYC out of the blue.

KYC

Know your customer is the process of a business verifying the identity of its clients.
Banks and companies of all sizes have become big supporters of KYC. It is increasingly common for banking institutions, credit companies, and insurance agencies to require that their customers provide them with detailed information in order to ensure that they are not involved with corruption, bribery, or money laundering.

KYC is basically the loophole that cab be used to track you in the crypto space.

By using an exchange, and providing your details, any transaction from there can be tracked.

Kyc stands for "know your customer"

I mean, yea in theory some projects can use your information for malicious intentions, but the legitimate sites usually use KYC as to prevent shady stuff like money laundering, etc and also to people from abusing certain cryptocurrency airdrops. Also, people can track most of your transactions(depending on the coin), whether or not they know your KYC information or not.

Beware of KYC. I always think that, Is it safe to provide your identity documents to unknown ICO authorities. It is always risky.
Never put your documents in Free airdrops or scam projects. They may try to brute force your password or other sensitive data. Only invest in authentic projects.
They may also try to sell your personal data on the dark web. Everyone should be careful before sending documents.

Normally, when a project tells you that you need to provide KYC, you must provide them with your identification information, including your name, age, country, address, etc., and upload photos of certification documents.

KYC = KNOW YOUR CUSTOMER
As an entry point for the entry of criminal proceeds, banks should reduce the risk of using money laundering by knowing and knowing customer identity, monitoring transactions and maintaining customer profiles, and reporting suspicious transactions conducted by parties which use the services of banks. The application of Know Your Customer Principles (KYC Principle) is based on the consideration that KYC is not only important in the context of eradication of money laundering, but also in the implementation of prudential banking to protect banks from various risks in dealing with customers and counter -party.

KYC is basically the loophole that cab be used to track you in the crypto space.

I wouldn't go as far as to say it's a loophole for crypto. Most registered businesses have to comply with KYC/AML (anti-money laundering regulations, so it's not like crypto exchanges and other crypto businesses are being given special treatment. It could be used as a loophole though, because they will be able to trace transactions connected to your KYC file, but they also do the same thing with fiat so it's basically still equal treatment in this case.

KYC is basically used to detect and dissuade illegal activity, but is a very hot topic in crypto because it goes against anonymity, which crypto is rather known for.

The KYC form is a standard form in the investment industry that ensures investment advisors know detailed information about their clients' risk tolerance, investment knowledge and financial position. KYC forms protect both clients and investment advisors.

In short, this is regulation, that demands from exchanges to know their clients. Which means you for example. You register on exchange and before you can trade, they need to know you full personal data, address, country, name etc. etc.
This is famous KYC.
