I think having Identity verification to Issue Assets is a good idea to help address the concerns of scamming occurring on the asset exchange etc. But charging (5000 burst)/making a business from identity verification is unfair and defeating the purpose. Not all users are from USA or other developed countries and can afford to spend 5000 burst or even have 5000 burst just to get verified to issue an asset on a decentralized system. Unless their is a less costly way developed to get verified, some of us will use other methods to verify ourselves to potential investors (like Youtube video clearly showing Drivers licence and a recent utility bill or National Insurance payment slip showing our address). In Trinidad & Tobago USD $1 = TT $6.77 You do the maths to see how much 5000 burst coins is worth to me. Where I'm from and many other Caribbean countries and third world countries their isn't anywhere to buy bitcoin to even start since coin base doesn't work for us to link bank accounts and their is no bitcoin atm in the region to buy bitcoins and very few people even know about crypto currency. Since burst coin faucets pay out an average of 3 coins per day with only 3 operational on any given day It takes the average person months to get 5000 burst coins from a third world country even if you are mining burst coins using your pc. You are making the experience more challenging for people from under developed countries to equally participate/utilize the burst coin asset issuing feature, hence limiting growth and development of burst generally. I plan to issue an asset in the near future but I will not be paying 5000 burst to get verified, sorry. I will consider the IPO escrow insurance though. We should make important features like Identity verification very cheap if not free to encourage all user to get verified. Think about the bigger picture of expanding the entire burst community and creating more trade volume and not only about finding ways to fill your own pockets.

@pml2020 Hey I just want to point out he does have to pay for shipping of the docs
-
@pml2020 as much as i see your point , the fee is buying a service , #1 you are allowed to advertise hear on this platform, #2 it covers the shiping cost of doc's to and from for the verification. 5000 burst is not vary much , given that it cost 1000 burst to issue an asset, and the action of issuing an asset and placing it for sale on the exchange is efectivly you starting a company, and asking people to invest in your company. if you dont have the funds to cover the verification then you most likley dont have the funds to start and run a company. that said you dont have to get varified to start an asset everyone is free to do so if they wish , but this is @haitch forum and he requiers it to advertise on the forum.

@pml2020 You don't have to get verified by haitch. There are other ways like you said: Youtube videos, linking other Accounts with reputation with your Account here (e.g. eBay or similar). Pictures and Videos are always helpful.
I'm still waiting for the first Asset that is tied to the "old" economy. A good plan and pictures will be enough for many investors.

@kmaxkmax It is convenient to use that method for doing verification to make a profit after shipping. We are not in the 70's, I think between both of us we can come up with over 10 ways to verify users for free or little cost using resources like facebook, youtube, whatsapp etc and drop the cost to 10 burst service fee. Or maybe I'm missing something here. I am fairly new to burst, but I already see why the technology/coin is so under valued and market cap is so low. The people who are in positions to make a difference and improve stuff are busy milking this cow and constantly thinking of new selfish schemes. I visit the both forums and its clear to see that we don't have many people really seeking the growth of the entire community. The good thing is that this is a decentralized technology and nobody is the boss and I will take a different approach to everything and do things my way, using my own brain and methods.

@daWallet Unfortunately not for all investors. bet there were really good plans back in the day that didn't pan out
-
@pml2020 I can think of 10 ways to outsmart video verification on my end. With all these scams that have occurred in Burst, other crypto's, stuff like online HYIP's and many other stuff verification makes sense.
-
@pml2020 It's Monday and I'm feeling generous - I'll verify you for free. PM me your details and I'll get the envelope out.
-
OK Thanks!

I PM you Haitch
