Verifying your source of cryptocurrency

If you bought your cryptocurrency through us originally, no worries! Nothing further required. You’ll be able to sell the same amount back to us, no matter what the value has changed to. E.g. if you bought 3 BTC from us and 10 XRP you can sell back 3 BTC and 10 XRP regardless of how high they moon. If you received your cryptocurrency somewhere else, you’ll need to provide us with evidence to show where this has come from. Applications will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and we can’t provide any guarantees on what will be accepted or not. However, we can provide some guidance on the types of things we ask for:
