AML and KYC Policy for Btctradex Staking Website

1. Introduction

Btctradex is dedicated to maintaining the integrity of its staking platform by ensuring compliance with international regulations related to Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC). This policy is designed to prevent illegal activities such as money laundering, fraud, and terrorist financing, while also protecting our users and the broader financial ecosystem.

2. Know Your Customer (KYC) Policy

To mitigate financial risks and establish a transparent user base, Btctradex implements a strict KYC framework.

2.1 User Identification Requirements

All users must complete identity verification before engaging in staking or transactions on our platform. This process includes:

Government-issued identification (passport, national ID, driver’s license).

Proof of residence (utility bill, lease agreement, or official bank statement dated within the last three months).

Biometric authentication (live selfie for facial recognition).

2.2 Risk-Based Approach

Btctradex applies a risk-based approach to KYC compliance:

Low-risk users undergo standard KYC verification.

High-risk users, including large-volume traders and entities from jurisdictions with weak AML regulations, undergo Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD).
