If You’re in One of These 48 Countries, Your Crypto Data Is Being Collected
Data collection started on Jan 1st this year. The so called CARF kicks globally in 2027, but it is already live and recording.
- if you live in one of the countries below, your crypto exchange deposit/withdrawal data and any custodial wallet activity are already being collected.
- even non-custodial wallet providers may be compelled to share data if they potentially have access to it (many popular non-custodial wallets do track user balances and activity)
The only real way to maintain privacy is to avoid wallets that know your balances or transactions, and to avoid centralized exchanges for swaps.
Use a non-custodial wallet that doesn’t collect data and enables non-KYC token swaps through DEXes. This is exactly what Unstoppable Wallet is built for.
