In order to use crypto-asset holdings towards your net worth verification, you will need to upload a statement or screenshot from a credible cryptocurrency exchange or wallet and must show the date as well as the valuation in USD. You will need to upload a separate screenshot for each wallet.
- If the statement or screenshot contains evidence tying the investor to the account (e.g. your name or the investing entity's name), we should be able to use the screenshot on its own and you do not need to cryptographically sign your wallet (see our Verification Requirements article for our generic requirements)
- If the screenshot does not show identifying information and you have no other alternative assets you can use, we can still verify you own the crypto in your wallet if you upload a message cryptographically signed using the private key of your wallet or wallets (we would not see your private key, you would just use it to create the message). Once you have the signature, please create a PDF that includes both your screenshot and the signed message. Please see instructions below on how to do so.
Detailed instructions for preparing a signed message
1. Prepare the following message for signature:
I, <Signatory Name>, certify under penalty of perjury that <Investing Entity Name> is the sole owner of the cryptocurrency address associated with this message as of <Today's Date>.
Replace the angle brackets with your name, the name of the investing entity, and the date.
2. Signing the message
Here is an example signed message:
3. Submitting

Please combine this document along with the screenshot of the wallet in one PDF and upload the combined PDF through our asset verification form. If you already submitted a screenshot and need to provide the signature document, you can send that to us via our secure file sharing site.
Please note that in the event that your funds are spread across multiple wallets, you will need to include a signed message from each address.
