KYC & AML in Crypto
KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) are the identity and monitoring controls regulated crypto platforms must apply to their users.
In depth
Verifying identity and tracking suspicious patterns protects the platform, its users and the wider system from fraud and illicit finance. It is also what allows exchanges to offer bank rails and legal recourse. Non-compliant venues may seem convenient but carry freeze, seizure and counterparty risk.
Why it matters
