When I was starting to get involved in crypto-currency, one of its features that attracts me is the privacy it gives you. Now with all those KYC being required in exchanges and in ICOs and other platforms, some people are beginning to be hesitant in their activities in crypto.
Well, in my opinion you shouldn't see KYC exclusively as a negative thing. if no Exchange does KYC, governments will simply start to stop crypto trading by law. At the moment, they are starting to accept the existence of the crypto market, so it's better not to go directly against regulations if we want a prosperous future market...
Anyway, from this year we will begin to see starting more and more good decentralized Exchanges, so if what you are looking for is privacy, you will be satisfied with this new excellent opportunity.
