With cryptocurrency hard to monitor, I recently received a notice from my local cryptocurrency exchange that it has to do a re-verification of all members that include submitting our ID with face recognition online as well as verification of our home address and our intention of using its platform. This was done to the need to apply for a license to operate legally in about two months' time. This is a step to keep a closer monitoring for crypto that can be really hard to track for a country.
Anyone who goes through an exchange has his identity revealed.
