What is up with Blocktrades???

I just tried to check my wallet. This message popped up on Blocktrades when I tried seeing what Hive was selling for. Blocktrades now wants ALL my information before I can access the page again. I'm like WTF!? What has changed to prompt this all of a sudden??? Is this for real or some sort of cyber attack on Blocktrades???

Now, I've been on Hive/Steemit for almost 5 years now and not ONCE have I had to enter any of my personal information to run this blog and cash out a little in cryptos here and there.

If this is in fact the case and I can no longer use Blocktrades to cash out, if anyone of you reading this has some Litecoins I will happily trade you Hive for Litecoin when my power down finishes.

THANK YOU!!!

Indeed, seems they just enforced some KYC-bullshit like all the other exchanges. Must have been in the last week or so, because recently I have used it.
Then just https://stealthex.io/?to=hive remains, but here Hive is still not yet back from maintenance after the HF (if it ever will be).

Well this sucks!!! Its going to make it harder for me to get rid of my Hive now.

Why get rid of it at all? Power up to get 11% APY. Or change to HBD and get 20%.
