Whats is a Bitcoin ATM (or BTM)?

In some cases, Bitcoin ATM providers require users to have an existing account to transact on the machine above a specific amount, depending on national laws.

Thus far hundreds of developers have added to the core code throughout the years.

KYC: Explained

If you’ve required financial services of any sort, you probably would have been asked to go through a KYC procedure. Your identity and personal particulars are verified by a financial institution, be it your local or international banks, traditional stock exchanges or others; cryptocurrency businesses are no exception. It is a necessary step to adhere to global compliance standards and governance as the crypto industry grows and matures.

The KYC process is required by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) for the supervision of the financial intermediaries referred to in article 2 para. 3 of the Swiss Federal Law on combating money laundering and terrorism financing (AMLA).

Share the link:

Why should you go through KYC?

We’re raising limits for those who’ve completed the KYC verification.

TiBc is upping the ante for customers who wish to increase their limits. You can still buy or sell up to CHF 1'000.- (per month) without completing the KYC. However, you will be able to buy or sell up to CHF 15'000.- (per month) with only KYC L1 verification, and KYC L2 would be OTC, with no limits as long as the proof of funds are provided.

Please, contact our support team for more information!
