The crypto industry's KYC problem keeps getting worse. Users have been stuck with fragmented identity verification systems for years—every platform demands the same documents, same process, zero recognition of previous verification. It's a nightmare loop that nobody benefits from.

What's needed is a fundamental shift: reusable identity credentials across the ecosystem. Not optional, essential. Once identity is verified, it should be portable and trusted across different platforms and services. This isn't about weakening compliance—it's about making it work smarter.

Projects tackling decentralized identity infrastructure are heading in the right direction. The crypto space needs interoperable identity solutions that respect both user privacy and regulatory requirements. Breaking this cycle of redundant KYC processes is critical for mainstream adoption.

Every time I do KYC, I have to start all over again, it's really ridiculous... The industry should have a unified standard.

This KYC process is really ridiculous. Every platform requires you to submit it again, so annoying.

Repeating verification each time is really impressive. Why hasn't there been a unified standard yet?

Every time I go through KYC, I have to redo everything, it's really frustrating... Cross-chain interoperability is achievable, so why is identity verification so difficult?

This direction is correct, but the key still depends on who can reduce the computational cost of on-chain identity verification first. Currently, the truly usable solutions are still too expensive.
