Binance Singapore has purportedly abruptly suspended a Bitcoin withdrawal from a trader using a wallet with a coin-mixing service, a harsh reminder that large exchanges aren\u2019t the best place to hold coins if one values anonymity and accessibility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Binance Account Suspended <\/span><\/h2>\n

Twitter user Catxolotl (@bittlecat) received a message from Binance Singapore informing them that their Bitcoin withdrawals were suspended due to “risk management.”<\/span><\/p>\n

In attempts to fix the issue, Binance then asked Catxolotl to provide some rather discerning personal information:<\/span><\/p>\n

  2. Supporting documents<\/span><\/li>\n

    In response, one Twitter user<\/span><\/a> stressed that the freezing of funds and request for information is an invasion of privacy and questioned whether the exchange has made it to clear in their terms that users may be blocked from withdrawing Bitcoin. <\/span><\/p>\n

    While the story is still progressing, there are already some key takeaways: t<\/span>he adage “not your keys, not your Bitcoin,” comes to mind. <\/span><\/p>\n

    The whole philosophy behind Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies is tied to decentralization, and giving your coins to giant exchanges like Binance also means giving away control. <\/span><\/p>\n

    It also reminds one to be diligent if going with an exchange, and make sure to know the ins and outs of said exchange\u2019s KYC\/AML<\/span><\/a> protocols. <\/span><\/p>\n

Delahunty, born in Lancashire, England, but raised and currently residing in Columbus, Ohio where I attended The Ohio State University studying English and History. After writing in the Fintech and Forex spaces, I began to focus on blockchain and cryptocurrencies \u2014 Bitcoin in particular \u2014 in 2016. Aside from being part of NewsBTC\u2019s journalism team, I am a writer and analyst for Ohio State\u2019s Risk Institute at the Fisher College of Business, and run operations for two local, independent online businesses.","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/tjdelahunty"],"url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/author\/thomasdelahunty\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Don’t Withdraw Bitcoin From Binance to Privacy Wallets, User Warns","url":"http:\/\/wncen.com\/news\/what-a-binance-bitcoin-withdrawal-suspension-shows-about-privacy-kyc\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/wncen.com\/news\/what-a-binance-bitcoin-withdrawal-suspension-shows-about-privacy-kyc\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/shutterstock_387741175-e32.jpg?resize=200%2C200","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/shutterstock_387741175-e32.jpg?fit=3000%2C2000"},"articleSection":"Cryptocurrency Market News","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Thomas Delahunty"}],"creator":["Thomas Delahunty"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["binance","bitcoin","cryptocurrency","exchange","kyc","singapore","suspended account"],"dateCreated":"2019-12-19T18:00:57Z","datePublished":"2019-12-19T18:00:57Z","dateModified":"2024-06-11T09:29:49Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Don’t Withdraw Bitcoin From Binance to Privacy Wallets, User Warns\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/news\\\/what-a-binance-bitcoin-withdrawal-suspension-shows-about-privacy-kyc\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/news\\\/what-a-binance-bitcoin-withdrawal-suspension-shows-about-privacy-kyc\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/08\\\/shutterstock_387741175-e32.jpg?resize=200%2C200\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/08\\\/shutterstock_387741175-e32.jpg?fit=3000%2C2000\"},\"articleSection\":\"Cryptocurrency Market News\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Thomas Delahunty\"}],\"creator\":[\"Thomas Delahunty\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"binance\",\"bitcoin\",\"cryptocurrency\",\"exchange\",\"kyc\",\"singapore\",\"suspended account\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2019-12-19T18:00:57Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2019-12-19T18:00:57Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-06-11T09:29:49Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/wncen.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/shutterstock_387741175-e32.jpg?fit=3000%2C2000","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/408021"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/521"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=408021"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/408021\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/393903"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=408021"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=408021"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=408021"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
