I want to invest in some crypto, I know that this requieres ID verification usually. Is https://www.kraken.com/ a good website for investing? Because I don’t really want to send my ID to some dudes on the internet. Thank you

They are a legitimate crypto exchange.

Pretty sure they do ID verification depending on residency but you’d need to check their site for specifics.

Yeah they do KYC (know your customer). Pretty straightforward anyway.

Yep, Kraken’s been a big player in the exchange space for a long time.
