Don't Provide Your Identity To Any Website!

Recommended Posts

Thanks for the warning, this information is extremely valuable and useful, this information should be disclosed more frequently because sometimes we are very unsuspecting and with the expectation of receiving a prize or bonus we end up exposing ourselves to bad people

Scammers have always been and will be. Therefore, one must always be on the alert. Be suspicious of new sites. It is especially dangerous to pass KYC on new sites. Check carefully the sites on which you want to leave your information. Best regards, your servant.

Hello dear friends. 

A lot of websites, especially Airdrops websites, require KYC or identity verification in order to get the free bonus for example. 

However, some of these sites might be scam and could steal your ID very easily!

So please, do some researches before sharing your ID.

Thank you very much for the advice my friend, we need to be more aware of these things, I have done several airdrops and I quit when they start asking for money, millions of referrals and ask for pictures, these days I was in one that asked for a picture as if I was in jail, in front, in profile, and putting name and ID, I did not do it. We will follow your advice. thank you

There are some legit websites that requirs you to input your identity before you process to the next transaction,

Exactly some legit exchange are platform's airdrops required to submit our identity, if we trust that project then prove our identity there is no problem,

but not just like to grab any airdrop and submit kyc details its not good, because our kyc details important for scammers, they can do anything with our details so be careful.

When the site is safe and also has good comments about your service, maybe it will, but when they ask for many things, it is better to suspect the integrity of the users in any case.

Such sites exploit you by using the reward that you do not get, and by filling 0ut your information, you become a customer for them in any project that uses your information and other purposes as well. I have said to you, you do not want to give your information, and you will only direct this through the mail where you receive notifications from sites that do not link you with any relationship.

True, many of these sites end up becoming scams, which raises the fear that they will fraudulently use our identities for their crimes. It is important to research well any platform that requires a KYC process to avoid future problems.

It's nice to see people are aware of the risks involved when sharing identity information on exchanges and more recently in airdrop campaigns. We all know that KYC is design to prevent fraud and financial crimes, such as money laundering, and it's required to meet some regulations. However, how safe is our personal information in such? and how sure can we be such information is not going to be used with fraudulent purposes. We also agree that it's up to people to make extensive research before sharing their personal data with any website, but how often does this occur in reality? I personally don't take part in airdrops that require passing a KYC, unless they're offered by well-reputed platforms, such as Yobit.

If you participate in airdrops choose without KYC and use email, Twitter, Facebook accounts created just for this purpose.

If hackers can't hack the crypto itself, their obvious target will be users. They will look for gaps in security and hack the platform you use to store your digital assets to line your pockets. Therefore, the first and foremost safety tip is to take safety measures and take them seriously. Use complex passwords. Avoid public WiFi. Beware of phishing scams. Do not store your cryptocurrencies on exchanges. Keep your device safe. Buy a cryptocurrency monedor or hardware. Enable two-factor authentication. Keep your crypto assets private.

I agree with this, that's why I am always very careful when I see and airdrop requires KYC, I don't usually trust them unless it comes from a well know exchange, and most of times exchanges always require KYC so in that part it's almost inevitable, you just have to make sure that those are legit sites

You are right, you have to be very careful in the sites where you are going to perform a kyc because most of them are fradulent and you can be exposed to any fraud so you have to investigate the reputation of the site well although we are never fully protected against a scam. Cheers

I agree with many comments but sending your data and a little personal information would serve to generate more trust and obviously one trusting the site where you are developing.  At the moment there are many people who falsify their identity and take advantage of certain benefits that virtual currency pages could offer.

That truth sometime we want to get some extra money and we provide our identify many of the protect don't have a strong security and the hacker can stole very easy. Im scare with this because many company ask about your Identify and we don't know what they do with this information like facebook has the control of many information that used to sell to the company. For the other hand the government always fort to the company to be regulation, this happed with Bitmex that offer a service in USA with KYC and will have problem with the government.

Most of the airdrops know how to ask for documents such as the kyc or passport to be approved to receive the coins that they will give but sometimes they do not know what they will do with it and the truth is that it can be scam

Any consumer must be vigilant about the information that she/he gives on any website. It is very important not to use the same password for all the online accounts, do not overshare on social media as in Facebook lotteries, do not send delicate informtion by email even if you have a secure password.

You are absolutely right friend, you should not provide our information to a website at all and more if it is unknown, but the truth is that many websites to do most of the things and they see that we are real they ask you for some type of document provide some kind of data that has always been the case and I think it will continue to be, it is something that we should not do but hey we all do it because otherwise we get nothing.

It's like when we accept the conditions, nobody reads them, we just accept them by the pull and out, and maybe we're giving them our house and we don't care hehehe

For example, for the airdrops they have asked us to twitter or tik tok or something else like that, that we publish or leave some data, and that is already dangerous in itself but good.

I suppose we will continue to do so and pray to our lord that we do not do anything that will ultimately harm us.

It is advisable to avoid at all costs these types of sites that ask us for personal data as a verification step, especially those that require the KYC process in which we reveal information from personal documents so that these are later used to steal our identity.

    • CryptoNews of the Week     – The first cryptocurrency has once again risen above the $70,000 mark. The Hash Ribbons indicator is giving an “optimal signal” for buying digital gold in the coming weeks, suggesting a resumption of the asset’s rally, according to Capriole Investments founder Charles Edwards. The metric indicates miner capitulation that began two weeks ago, a period when the 30-day moving average hash rate falls below the 60-day average. Edwards notes that miner capitulation occurs approximately once a year, usually linked to shutdowns, bankruptcies, acquisitions, or halving events. The recent miner capitulation was observed in 2023 when bitcoin traded around $20,000. If a new growth impulse occurs, the next medium-term target will be $100,000. However, entering the traditionally quiet summer financial market could delay this upward momentum, Edwards warns.   – The analyst known as Rekt Capital believes that to enter a “parabolic growth phase,” digital gold will need to confidently overcome the resistance zone of $72,000-$73,000. Popular cryptocurrency expert Ali Martinez predicts that BTC will likely test the price range of $79,600. The Artificial Intelligence tool PricePredictions has determined that in the coming days, bitcoin could not only firmly consolidate above the crucial $70,000 mark but also continue to rise, reaching $75,245 by the end of June. This forecast is based on technical analysis indicators such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Bollinger Bands (BB), and Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).   – On 2 June, Dogecoin token graphic designer known as DogeDesigner discovered a live stream on YouTube featuring a deepfake of Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk promoting a cryptocurrency scam. The fake Musk offers users to scan a QR code on the screen leading to a giveaway site. "On the site, you can deposit any amount of bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin without any registration. Once you do, you'll receive double the amount of the deposited cryptocurrency," promises the fake entrepreneur. The scammers' channel closely resembles the official Tesla page and even has nearly 15,000 subscribers, while the original has 2.65 million.   – Venture investor Chamath Palihapitiya discussed one pathway for the mass adoption of bitcoin on the All-In podcast, predicting its price could rise to $500,000. The billionaire explained that the “powerful concept” of digital gold adoption was elucidated to him by Xapo CEO Wences Casares, an Argentine entrepreneur in venture investment. Casares believes more countries will notice bitcoin while retaining their national currencies, effectively becoming dual-currency nations. One asset will be used for transactions with everyday goods and services, while the other – cryptocurrency – will act as a store of value. The United States could be among the first to follow this path, according to the entrepreneur.  Palihapitiya also noted that Casares suggested analysing bitcoin dynamics after halvings. The investor observed that the cryptocurrency's highest growth occurred 12-18 months post-event. Palihapitiya predicts that if the growth trajectory following the third halving repeats, bitcoin's price could reach $500,000 by October 2025. Taking the average of the last two cycles, the price target could be $1.14 million.   – According to a recent Harris Poll, geopolitical tension and inflation are prompting an increasing number of American voters to turn to bitcoin. The poll, sponsored by BTC-ETF issuer Grayscale, revealed that one in three U.S. voters will consider a Presidential candidate’s stance on cryptocurrencies before casting their vote. The survey polled over 1,700 potential U.S. voters, 77% of whom believe Presidential candidates should have at least some understanding of cryptocurrencies. Additionally, 47% of respondents plan to include cryptocurrency in their investment portfolios, up from 40% last year. Notably, following the approval of BTC-ETF, 9% of elderly voters also reported increased interest in investing in bitcoin or other crypto assets.   – The founder of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, Binance, Changpeng Zhao, has entered a federal high-security prison in California, where he will spend the next four months. The crypto community quickly expressed support for the former Binance CEO. A Reddit user, Ilsemprelaziale, commented that Zhao's imprisonment is a step to protect the crypto exchange and the entire industry from potential risks. "If the FTX collapse hit cryptocurrency hard, just imagine what would happen if Binance fell. But he pleaded guilty and stepped down as CEO," Ilsemprelaziale wrote.  After the sentencing, Changpeng Zhao shared plans for his post-prison life, stating he will continue to be actively involved in the crypto community. For instance, the former Binance head plans to engage in passive investing using his existing crypto assets.   – Mexican billionaire Ricardo Salinas urged his followers to buy bitcoin to protect against the devaluation of national currencies and preserve their savings. The owner of Salinas Group, whose wealth is estimated at over $14 billion, cited the fall of the Nigerian naira as an example.  Currently, Nigeria's official currency is experiencing a difficult period, prompting the local government to take several stabilization measures. The country's authorities have also tightened their stance on cryptocurrency companies – in March, the Nigerian Securities and Exchange Commission proposed increasing the registration fee by 400%. The head of Binance’s Financial Crimes Compliance unit, Tigran Gambaryan, is still imprisoned in Nigeria on charges of tax evasion.   – The crypto wallets of well-known personalities have long attracted the attention of curious community members. One of the largest holders of cryptocurrency, as it turns out, is the founder of Tron, Justin Sun, who, according to Arkham Intelligence, owns crypto assets worth $1.03 billion. His largest reserves are in USDD stablecoins, valued at $276 million. Additionally, Arkham calculated that he holds $240 million in TRX and about $100 million in BTC.  The wealth of Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin is estimated to be a comparable amount at $935 million, with most of his holdings in ETH, valued at over $930 million. Pop stars' holdings are significantly smaller. For example, singer Justin Bieber owns ETH tokens worth about $575,000. Socialite Paris Hilton has digital assets worth only $53,000.   – Tether (USDT stablecoins) co-founder, former actor, and 2020 U.S. presidential candidate Brock Pierce is confident that Chinese authorities will lift the cryptocurrency ban. “Will China become open to cryptocurrencies? I can say it's inevitable. The main question is not whether it will happen, but when it will happen,” he stated.  In 2021, the Chinese government included the trading and mining of digital assets in the list of illegal activities. However, a grey crypto market has developed in the country. Pierce believes Hong Kong could become China’s cryptocurrency trading hub. However, this is not currently the case, as the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) of this administrative region of China has prohibited local companies from providing digital asset services to mainland China residents. As a result, many firms have withdrawn their applications for virtual currency trading licenses submitted to the SFC.   – CEO of investment company Galaxy Digital, Mike Novogratz, predicted which crypto asset could become a serious contender for launching new cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the U.S. Over the past year, the most impressive results were shown by the cryptocurrency Solana. At the end of 2023, SOL was trading around $21, but by March 2024, it had exceeded $200, showing nearly tenfold growth. Currently, SOL is valued at around $172 and ranks among the top five cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. Given Solana's current status, Novogratz is confident that this altcoin has every chance to be included in the pool of spot ETFs. Recently, Brian Kelly, CEO of investment company BKCM, expressed a similar view.  Responding to Novogratz, the crypto enthusiast known as Digital Asset Investor suggested that SOL's price increase was due to the collapse of the FTX crypto exchange in autumn 2022 and “too many connections with the authorities.”  Notice: These materials should not be deemed a recommendation for investment or guidance for working on financial markets: they are for informative purposes only.

    • Объем продаж Cardano взлетел на 28%   По данным CoinGlass, объем торговли деривативами на популярной криптовалюте Cardano (ADA) увеличился на 28,9% за последние 24 часа. Таким образом, как сообщают данные, бессрочные фьючерсы на токен Cardano достигли 362,30 миллиона долларов за последние 24 часа.   Более того, по данным CoinMarketCap, объем торгов ADA на спотовых рынках среди всех бирж за рассматриваемый период составил $ 306,29 млн. Таким образом, общий объем торгов токеном Cardano на спотовом рынке и рынках деривативов за прошедший день составил $668 млн.   Интересно отметить, что в отличие от рынка фьючерсов на токен Cardano, объем на спотовом рынке не увеличился за 24-часовой период, а фактически немного снизился. Это говорит о том, что торговля ADA велась в основном на открытом фьючерсном рынке и носила более спекулятивный характер, чем инвестирование в недвижимость.
