That’s because I don’t trust international exchanges even more. If the international exchange scams me I can’t do anything about it. If the local exchange scams me I can find a local lawyer and try my luck. When a international CEX asks impossible questions, it is over for you because they have the advantage over you. They know you can’t do anything. I would never hold big positions on the international exchanges because of that.
OK, I see. Thanks for the clarification. Relying on legal action for protection means that one has to provide KYC information beforehand, otherwise he would have no way to prove that it was actually him that lost the money.
I don't use KYC exchanges, so I don't really have reasons to prefer local exchanges to foreign ones. Moreover, I actually prefer foreign ones, as in my case the local exchanges have mandatory KYC.
