As you may have heard, a couple of weeks ago, we halted withdrawals because of a higher than normal amount of spam/scam.

We were going to have withdrawals offline until we had a KYC system fully implemented.

The KYC system that we are looking to build is more complex than a standard plug-and-play KYC.

We want a system that keeps your data safe and encrypted, does not store your information, and allows you to stay anonymous if you want.

Because of this, the system is taking longer to build than anticipated.



We value this community, and it's collective voice and desires.

The decisions we make are always for the betterment of the community.

Some decisions improve the short-term, some improve the long-term.



Disabling withdrawals was a long-term play so that we could mitigate scammers and benefit the long-term health of our collective community.

Many people were not happy in the short-term, but it was for the greater good, so we hope you understand :)

And since withdrawals were disabled a couple of weeks ago, we have cleaned up Uptrennd considerably, so that is a huge positive!



Now that withdrawals are once again enabled, each and every withdrawal will be individually checked and verified.

More time-intensive for us, but we prioritize keeping the ecosystem of value healthy and alive!
