Crypto exchange fingerprint management and account isolation. How exchanges detect multi-accounting and infrastructure for legitimate separation.
2025 became the most damaging year for exchange security on record. The Bybit breach drained $1.5B almost instantly, triggering industry-wide security overhauls. In 2026, exchanges deploy AI-powered fraud detection, biometric verification, and comprehensive device fingerprinting.

Always verify your use case complies with applicable laws and exchange policies.
