  Cryptocurrency exchanges require users to go through a whitelist process as a security measure. By whitelisting users, exchanges can ensure that only verified individuals can access their platform and perform transactions. This helps to prevent fraud, money laundering, and other illegal activities. Additionally, whitelisting allows exchanges to comply with regulatory requirements and maintain a transparent and trustworthy environment for their users.

  The whitelist process is necessary for cryptocurrency exchanges to establish a level of trust and security. By verifying the identity of users and conducting thorough KYC (Know Your Customer) procedures, exchanges can mitigate the risks associated with money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illicit activities. This process also helps exchanges to comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) regulations enforced by regulatory authorities.
