Recently, more and more arguments have arisen that ICO generosity campaign participants really need to be tested by KYC in order for ICO teams to provide information that their tokens are distributed to specific people. In my opinion, this generally sounds like something stupid. Who and why should the ICO team provide such data? Tokens are not much different from any other product, and stating that merchants need to know who they are selling is stupid.
You welcome the situation when we go into the store and in order to purchase any product and we will be asked to first fill out a special form with your confidential data? Do you think that this is different from the situation with cryptocurrency?
Sometimes KYC is necessary to be done in order to take a part become a legit token holder in companies that paying you share or dividend.
But i don't think it is required for ICO companies that using only utility token to operates, weird if they want their project supporters to submit KYC.
If you are a hunter, then you must carefully choose a project to support if you don't want your KYC documents used by scam ICO companies.
