Re: Question about Bittrex Exchange

I have a bittrex account created few years ago. I just opened it yesterday after a year and I found out that I still have 0.014 btc there. I want to withdraw it but my account was disabled for some reason and it asks me to complete identity verification.

Now the problem is I didn't use my real name when I created that account and it's not allowed to change it. Will I succeed in identity verification if I submit an ID and selfie even if my profile info is not the same on the ID?

It's really a waste for a 0.014 btc or $150 just to be stuck on there.

You should not play with it. It is not worth. There are high charges for forging identity. Just forget about that account and move on.
Having an account registered under the name of "Snus Sweden" before KYC was really a thing or required really does not constitute identity forging later on when KYC is required. That'd really be a reach.

If I remember right, first you had to give only your email you hold. That was first level. Then you were asked to put in your name and that was second level.   You were asked to put in your name. Not someones else or imaginary one. Your name.  If they did not wanted your real name they would not ask for it and would be happy with a email where they can contact you.

I might have mixed bittrex with poloniex. I had and have accounts on both exchanges and I remember on one I was asked to put name.
