  2. Complete a secure ON-CHAIN KYC:

A pre-requisite to participate is that you must KYC to ensure we are fully compliant. This process is only required ONCE for your wallet to be accepted. This is important to operate iotexpad in a legal scope whilst ensuring all data is stored on-chain and by a third party for the security of your information. We ensure FULL security of your information by storing it On-chain with Fractal. This is also to minimise dual entries from multiple wallets owned by the same user. Fractal is the service provider third party KYC platform utilised.
