    KYC verification is necessary for crypto exchanges and wallets to ensure compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) and know your customer (KYC) regulations. By verifying the identity of users, exchanges and wallets can prevent illegal activities such as money laundering, terrorist financing, and fraud. This helps create a safer and more secure environment for users to trade and store their cryptocurrencies.

    KYC verification is a way for crypto exchanges and wallets to establish trust and credibility with their users. By requiring users to provide personal identification documents, proof of address, and other relevant information, exchanges and wallets can verify the identity of their users and ensure that they are dealing with legitimate individuals. This helps protect users from scams and fraudulent activities, and also helps prevent the misuse of the platform for illegal purposes.
