<h2>security and compliance</h2><br />
<p>At the regulatory and compliance level, YoBit has been operating offshore for a long time and has not disclosed financial license information from mainstream countries. The platform does not publicly disclose detailed certificates of reserves (PoR) or third-party audit reports like top exchanges. The security of its funds mainly relies on the platform's own hot and cold wallet isolation mechanism. For users, this lack of transparency means high potential risks, and it is recommended to use it only as a speculative place for small assets. </p><br />
