# Exchange Node Operators with Choice The decentralized model also empowers node operators, allowing them to set their own rules regarding whom they accept as clients based on KYC endorsements. This flexibility ensures that node operators can comply with regulatory requirements while also supporting financial inclusion and user privacy. It democratizes the verification process, giving users the freedom to choose how they wish to be verified and by whom. At the heart of this approach is the user's freedom to choose their level of disclosure. Participants in the decentralized ecosystem can decide whether to undergo KYC/AML verification based on their needs and the requirements of the services they wish to access. This model promotes a balance between regulatory compliance and the fundamental right to privacy, embodying the true spirit of decentralization. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
