KYC enables to bring expedience and accuracy to identifing scams among ICOs.

    Upon KYC, we request and verify the following data:

    1. Scan of any of the following documents (with the valid term): passport, driver ID, ID card;
    2. Selfie with the document in the hands.

    We engage our partner, Sum & Substance, to verify identity.

    An ICO that has furnished the information for at least two members will be awarded the highest scoring (10) in the "Team" block, provided that all the fields have been duly completed. Should the team refuse to undergo KYC, the maximum possible scoring will be only 5 scores.
