crypto holders in France are getting kidnapped. 41 attacks this year. one every two and a half days. all traced back to leaked KYC data. your home address is on an exchange server right now.

@bluuu_u appreciate that genuinely. orangefren and bitcointalk are on the radar. monero community has been solid to us so far. we are building trust the slow way, by just running clean and letting people verify it themselves. hope to see you on there.

then they say kyc is to protect us lol ah so you have a privacy exchange, respect! though tbf, 2025 is still pretty new, but I get it every biz has to start somewhere. maybe you can do security depo in well known places to spike confidence. orangefren and an escow from bitcointalk like Little Mouse for example. you can do some googling on this, im sure you'd know. there is also monero subreddit. another good community aside from bitcointalk. xmr remains the best privacy coin today after all. well good luck, maybe i will use your exchange at some point. privacy is a right. 🤝

got KYC'd by an exchange. three months later they got hacked. my passport is somewhere on the dark web now. great system.

@0xigrix you pay with your data going in. you pay again when it leaks. they pay nothing.

@nonlogs this is why KYC is never about protecting you its about protecting them and when these systems and exchanges fail, you pay the price.

@bluuu_u that is exactly the problem. bad actors bypass it anyway. honest people carry the risk. nonlogs.io has been running since 2025. no logs, no KYC, no data to leak.

@nonlogs and the funny thing is bad actors just buy verified accounts with fake info, meanwhile real users bear the risk of data breach lol. honestly, we need more no-kyc exchanges, but im cautious on new ones because they usually don't have a good reputation yet.

@PlasBit Binance hack 2019 - 7 million users KYC data leaked. Ledger breach 2020 - 270,000 customer records including names addresses phone numbers. Coinbase breach 2023 - customer data sold by insiders. pick one.

the fact that you said "keep the $1k" instead of just providing proof says it all. changing the subject proves you did it for clicks. and comparing a KYC data leak to losing your life savings is genuinely one of the worst takes. people lose everything and don't come back from it. financially and mentally. that's real. if you asked anyone right now, "would you rather lose all your money or have someone see your ID," the answer isn't even close. you know it, i know it, everyone reading this knows it.

@WillGeek4Food apologised. sent a year of credit monitoring. kept your data. never fined. you are right. nothing changes unless it costs them something.

@nonlogs I'm sure they apologized though and neither offered nor were fined any $$. They win! You should lighten up a little.

@daKriptologist do not even need a hack. the data gets sold quietly. happens all the time. no headlines.

@nonlogs even if they didn't get hacked the database is leaked and/or sold to 3rd parties at least you give af , props to that .. so many folks don't care

@alexzeig centralised databases of sensitive data are not a security measure. they are a target.

@nonlogs creating a new database of PII only makes it more enticing to everyone who wants that data

@KultConnection @PlasBit putting every exchange's kyc into one "known 3rd party" doesn't make it safer, it just creates the biggest target on earth. when that central vendor gets breached, millions of identities drop at once.

@nonlogs @PlasBit You have no proof of your actual passport photo being there. Literally none. Also doing proper KYC and securing the data is not a light challenge. I'd rather it be done by a known 3rd party than by each exchange who reinvents the wheel. Your post is mostly bait.

@AidanOsint good technology. but it requires exchanges to actually implement it. most will not until forced.

@nonlogs Maybe PIR and homomorphic encryption and similar technologies can make current KYC models not so fundamentally flawed

@haldirai exactly. and when it leaks there is no taking it back. a password you can change. a passport you cannot.

@nonlogs The "nothing to hide" argument weakens because of events like this. Our most sensitive PII is on vulnerable, outdated, maybe even ignored databases. Especially ones held by the government.

Binance hack 2019 - 7 million users KYC data leaked. Ledger breach 2020 - 270,000 customer records including names addresses phone numbers. Coinbase breach 2023 - customer data sold by insiders. pick one. keep the $1k. saying "exchanges don't perform kyc themselves" is exactly the problem. u force users to hand passports to third-party shadow companies they never vetted.and comparing defi capital hacks to kyc identity leaks is a joke. u can earn back lost capital. u can't un-leak a passport.

we’re offering $1,000 if you can prove this actually happened. 99% of CT now is just clickbait posts from people who don’t even understand that most exchanges don’t perform the KYC themselves. stop spreading shit about cex's and pretending dex's are safe. defi is getting hacked every 30 hours on average in May, with so many projects closing. May 4: @phi_xyz May 12: @legendapp May 13: @code4rena May 21: @syndicateio what happened to user funds?

@danny_harbor either way the result is the same. your data is out there and nobody is accountable.

@nonlogs have you ever thought about the possibility that they just don't care or even hate you? why do we always give them the benefit of the doubt of making one unfortunate mistake after another.

@mwrldn 100%. the design is control. "security" was just the marketing pitch to get u to hand over the documents.

@nonlogs And once you realize it is by design...

@BoomerDadFX passports are valid for 10 years. that's not stale cache, that's permanent damage.

@nonlogs It's just stale cache at this point, but yeah

@VectorPrivacy 100%. they sold kyc to the public as "security", but it just turned exchanges into massive data honeypots for hackers.

@nonlogs RIP. The world is waking up to the fact now that KYC is the complete opposite of what we thought it was for... trust, when in fact it is the greatest violation of privacy for the modern age. Hope you will be unaffected🙏

@AuvaultJim missing the point. naming one implies the others are safe. any centralized exchange holding kyc data is a ticking time bomb.

@nonlogs name the exchange so we can avoid them

@wh173_c47 exactly. playing cat and mouse with AI vs exchange security is exhausting. easier to just use platforms that respect your data from day one.

@nonlogs AI fixes this better and better each days tbh... That's much of a dead end on their side so far, and will continue to be as tech improves. But agreed that I'd be more willing to use any shiet that does not look like a FED willing to get all my personal data :3

@wh173_c47 fake accounts work until they ask for a random facial rec update and lock all your money. not worth the risk. just use an exchange that doesn't ask. zero kyc from the start is the only safe way.

@nonlogs Can do the job actually, but as to are they disposed to or even willing to... Indeed, but that's on those FEDs... Better buy KYCed accounts, pretty cheap anyway...
