    At BYDFi, we understand the importance of tax compliance in the cryptocurrency industry. The W-9 and W-8BEN forms are crucial for individuals and entities to provide necessary information and ensure proper tax reporting. The W-9 form is required for U.S. taxpayers, while the W-8BEN form is used by non-U.S. individuals or entities. These forms help exchanges like ours to comply with tax regulations and provide a transparent and secure trading environment for our users. If you have any further questions about tax compliance or our platform, feel free to reach out to our support team.
