This is a very significant step towards the legalization of ICO and crypto industry in General. The ability to avoid money laundering, and not to become a victim of dozens of lawsuits for the company owners. For bounty hunters, it is the ability to compete with other on equal terms. No KYC - 10 000 bots.
KYC is very important I think this is a framework that recognizes the genuine character of a members. Furthermore, this KYC is essential with a specific end goal to approve con artists and those con artists. Be that as it may, some of the time it can be utilized likewise by those tricksters additionally by putting on a show to have an ICO and will approach your data for their own advantage like utilizing your data for terrible goal and this is the weakness of KYC framework that is executed.

This is a wonderful write up and the issue of KYC in crypto currency is really funny and I believe with time their might be something better in the future
I think KYC is a good thing for investing in ICO projects. It gives investors a better understanding of whether the project is a scam, and KYC's policy is also to understand the identity and nationality of the participants.
KYC "Know your customer" helps reduce scam in an ICO. It is not a 100% way of doing away with scams though, but it helps at least.
Some projects require KYC before investing, in every standard organization know you customers is one of the necessary things to do, this have so many advantages such as parenting theft etc. In crypto, a well established platform can use KYC to prevent any theft act.
today much projects that use kyc procedure to join in their project.actually it just to prevent some trouble that maybe appear in future.especially with sec regulation.
To be honest, i am really torn in half dealing with the KYC issue at hand.
You see, talking about cryptocurrency, the "Know Your Customer" or KYC defies the basic attribute of a crypto transaction, the ability to be pseudonymous.
By original design, crypto transactions is supposedly disconnected from the real world identities of people. Here, what we should be seeing are merely wallets and no more. And this is really a good safety precaution.
Yet, without KYC, fraudulent transactions can not be investigated any further except for the wallet addresses. There will be no prosecuting the owner as there is no link to the actual identity of the holder. Thus, KYC becomes a great tool to crack down on scammers a-like. In fact, with rigid KYC in place, anyone with fraudulent intentions would think twice before doing so.
Yet again, the same KYC could cause a series of identity theft or even pose great harm to wallet owners that holds a good amount of cryptocurrency.
And as much as i wanted to side with one, i am still really contemplating whether KYC is important or not. Perhaps i'll keep checking out people's opinion on this till i can finally decide.
Great points by the way.

This is a great write up in my opinion. Another use of kyc is that, it prevents cheater so that they won't cheat the system and they need to also know their token holders to be sure they are complying with the rules
for me
KYC is important because you are giving the details of your person. to find out who and where you live. You can also avoid scams when using KYC. as well as the use of KYC is an important thing because money depends on it
so their process is so rigorous that they can not do just because a valid ID is needed

Maybe because of the laws in some countries people can not participate in ICO (for example in USA) and with the help of KYC the founders can understand what country investors are from.
For bounty campaigns, KYC identification is very important. It helps to avoid dishonest participants with multi-accounts, which helps honest people to do their job well and earn money.
For me, KYC is a blessing that protects me from multi-accounts in ICO projects, in which there is a lot of competition among those who want to invest recently. It's simple, if you need tokens of a certain ICO and do not want or can not pass the KYC, then go and buy tokens on the currency exchange. As they say - demand gives rise to competition and allows you to earn a little on the difference in price. If for this it is necessary to pass the KYC, then this is a small fee for those wishing to earn good money!
Some projects require KYC before investing, in every standard organization know you customers is one of the necessary things to do, this have so many advantages such as parenting theft etc. In crypto, a well established platform can use KYC to prevent any theft act.
Data validation is very important! It seems to me that in order to avoid meeting with scammers and other fraudsters, you need to verify payments!

KYC is a important things for ICO to know about their customers such as citizen and as a proof of legal documents for them.
The ICO is also using it to refer to the bank regulations and anti-money laundering regulations which govern these activities.

KYC simply stands for Know Your Customer.
And i simply think that why KYC is required for most ICO'S is just to avoid double registration. So many people will be thinking of cheating a particular project by registering with many details on the detriment of the project. But if KYC is involved, i don't see where a single person can have double or many documents like international passpor, drivers license, National ID, utility bills etc.
