During the interim period between September 1 and October 1, users who haven&#8217;t yet fulfilled the KYC verification requirement will still be able to perform functions such as deposits, withdrawals, and trades without any disruption.<\/p>\n<p>However, starting from October 1, users who have not completed the mandatory level 1 KYC verification will experience limitations on their account.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>These users will only be able to carry out activities like withdrawals, canceling orders, redeeming subscriptions, and closing positions.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Creating new trading orders will be restricted for this group of users.<\/p>\n<p>Bitget is clear in its intention to conduct the KYC procedures meticulously to verify the identities of its customers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The change in KYC policies by Bitget echoes a broader trend within the cryptocurrency exchange industry as other major exchanges have also succumbed to regulatory scrutiny over strict KYC guidelines.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For instance, KuCoin, another prominent exchange, implemented comparable requirements in July 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>KuCoin&#8217;s measures include mandatory identity checks for all new users, in line with global Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations. Failing to fulfill the KYC requirements renders users ineligible to access KuCoin\u2019s suite of services and products.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, OKX, another leading exchange in the cryptocurrency space, is also instituting a KYC process to verify user identities. This verification process, like that of Bitget, has a September deadline. Users who don&#8217;t comply with the verification process will lose access to OKX\u2019s services from September 21.<\/p>\n<p>Bitget advised its users to complete their level 1 KYC verification promptly to continue using the exchange&#8217;s services and trading functions.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptonews.com\/news\/crypto-derivatives-exchange-bitget-makes-kyc-necessary-for-new-users-2.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cryptocurrency derivatives exchange Bitget announced revised Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements to ensure compliance with global regulatory standards.\u00a0 The move comes as the crypto exchange aims to align its operations with recommendations from international regulatory bodies and to provide a secure environment for cryptocurrency trading.
