  Sending W9 information via email when trading cryptocurrencies can be risky. Email is not a secure method of communication, and there is a possibility that your information could be intercepted by hackers. It is recommended to use more secure methods, such as encrypted file sharing services or secure online platforms, to transmit sensitive information like W9 forms.
