I believe that a significant number of noise.cash users are from the Philippines, and if I remember correctly, a significant number of those users use Coins.ph. If this is you, please keep reading. I thought I should take a moment to announce that it appears Coins.ph will start requiring KYC documentation for some transactions on June 18th. They have probably notified you already, but I thought I should post this here in case anyone missed the notification. Here is my (3rd party) source for this information: https://np.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/o119en/kyc_world_closing_in_heres_a_recent_email_from/ I don't know whether or not their wallet is custodial, so I don't have a clue whether or not using their wallet automatically makes this new requirement apply to you. Presumably you can verify this announcement if you have an account with them, and hopefully you understand whether or not their wallet is custodial if you are using it. If you have a problem with KYC and want to move your coin before this requirement takes effect, I often see the Bitcoin.com wallet recommended, and I personally like the Electron Cash wallet. Neither of those wallets are custodial, so using them leaves you fully responsible for the safety of your coins. This means you need to be certain that you are downloading from an official source (so that you don't install a scam wallet that steals your coins). It also means you need to be sure to protect your seed phrase once you install (so that you can recover your coins in the event of damage to and/or loss of the device storing your wallet). All of that having been said, if KYC and custodians don't concern you, feel free to carry on. Either way, stay safe.
