I hate KYC , sometimes there is no other way if you want to join to some ICO , Buying KYC is stupid because the person who sold you that could contact the project and say someone has hacked my account and he/she provide the dos again and make the account his/her .
There is a way out in any situation. If the investment requires KYC, then I'd rather give it up. Project owners don't provide us with their KYC data, so why should we?
