  3. Proof of Identity: national ID, Passport, or Driver’s license; you will need to take a clear photo of both sides. You’ll also need another clear photo as selfie showing you holding that proof on the 1st page.Some exchanges will ask you to write a the exchange name, date, and your name as it appears on your ID on a small piece of paper to accompany your selfie. Some exchanges will ask you for verification using you laptop, computer, or phone camera.
  4. Proof of Address:This can be a utility bill (phone, water, power, etc.) rent receipt, bank statement with your address, or can be a national address document issued online by national address service or postal service online.
