[India Strengthens KYC Requirements for Cryptocurrency User Registration] On January 12, the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) of India issued new regulations requiring regulated cryptocurrency trading platforms to verify user identities through real-time selfies and geolocation. The selfies must track eye and head movements to prevent AI deepfake technology from bypassing verification. Additionally, trading platforms must collect geolocation, IP addresses, and timestamps during account creation. Users are required to submit government-issued photo identification and verify their email and phone numbers to register an account.
