  The KYC process in crypto exchanges is a way for exchanges to verify the identity of their users. Users are required to provide personal information such as their full name, date of birth, address, and sometimes even a photo of their ID or passport. This information is used to ensure compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) regulations. The process usually takes a few days to a week, depending on the exchange and the volume of applications they receive.
