I have had  the legacy account for years.
Bittrex locked me up about a week ago, so I made a successful ID verification, but I refused to make an extended KYC verification. They want a photo of my face along with the ID, but I disagree with it.
My argument is that they don't have my permission to own and keep my photo. From my point of view, it is a great risk to give them such a picture.

I wanted to terminate account, but they always reply with asking for that photo.


So today they asking for our face photo with ID, and next time they will want maybe our DNA or other biometric identification. Who knows.
I don't understand how they can rob people in this way.



I had been using Bittrex for a years and yet I never encounter any problem like yours have, I just only activate the 2FA but not submitting my personal information on which is the KYC. But I have a limited withdrawal in it for about 0.02BTC daily due to that I am not submitting my KYC to their platform.
