A registration without verification is worth nothing
On a platform with mandatory KYC, the number of registrations is the worst metric available. Count the ones that passed the check.
An exchange arrives with a brief: “we need registrations.” A month later there are three thousand registrations, two hundred passed verification, and the conversation turns to the traffic being off-target. The traffic was exactly what was ordered.
What separates a registration that survives
A stated country and a willingness to show a document. Someone who signed up “to have a look” will not remember the password a week later. Someone who has started uploading a passport has already decided and is now choosing a platform.
So the verification step should not be buried. The usual rule reverses here: a KYC warning at the entrance cuts registrations in half and lifts the share that passes the check from 12 to 35 percent.
Where that audience reads
Not in pump channels — those are full of people trading other people’s signals. People who are about to move money onto an exchange read about taxes, about jurisdictions, and about how previous freezes ended. They read about the exchange itself last.
Hence the format: not an interface tour, but a breakdown of what the aggregators leave out. What a withdrawal costs, what happens to limits after verification, how the platform behaved in the last crash.
A screen recording, not a render
A promo clip with flying charts is recognised instantly and means “there is nothing to show yet.” A screen recording with a real order, a delay on confirmation and an awkward moment earns more trust than a fifty-thousand-dollar animation.
This is not about saving money: the shoot still has to be careful. It is about showing what exists, including the fee and the real withdrawal time.
How long to wait
From first contact to a verified trader takes two weeks to two months; to a first trade, longer. A two-week flight cannot be measured here at all: it ends before the people who arrived at the start have passed the check.
Plan in months and judge by the share that reached a first trade. Everything else is the cost of a click on an ad the person forgot an hour later.
Pick a source for the task

Approving each placement separately takes three to four days. In that time the slot goes to another advertiser and the flight stretches into a month.
