 <p class="is-style-lead">Bitget, the world’s 10th largest cryptocurrency exchange, is implementing comprehensive Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements for all English-speaking users.&nbsp;</p>
 <p>The <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="security" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/security.html">security</a>-enhancing measure, effective from Dec. 15, aligns with regulatory standards to ensure compliance across the platform.</p>
 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="aligning-with-global-financial-regulations">Aligning with global financial regulations</h2>
 <p>In response to user preferences and the need for flexibility, Bitget is implementing its KYC requirements in two tiers. Under this framework, the completion of Level 1 grants users access to all Bitget services, including derivatives and copy trading, with daily withdrawal limits extending up to $3 million.</p>
 <p>Bitget’s rollout of the KYC implementation will be done in phases to minimize disruption and give users sufficient time to upgrade their accounts. The strategic introduction aligns with Bitget’s ongoing efforts to combat financial crimes like money laundering, reinforcing the platform’s dedication to enhancing user protection.</p>
