Hey mods, if I'm posting at the wrong place, please move this to the right section. Thanks.

Anyway, I deposited about $1000 worth of bitcoins on Paxful when ID verification wasn't required, but now Paxful won't let me withdraw unless I go through ID verification. Because I don't want to hand over my ID, my bitcoins are stuck.

I've spoken to a lawyer who suggested I get a lawyer in New York (where Paxful is based) if I really want to take it to small-claims court, and I want to hold off on suing for now because people here might have easier solutions. If anyone has any ideas, please help me out. Thanks.
