Going out on a limb but I think OP probably meant that:

1) They take account verification seriously and leverage best practices around 2-factor auth etc even going so far as suggesting you NOT use simplified solutions like authy.

2) Your "hot wallet" balance is insured from internal breach / external hacking / etc. Good to note it's not insured from somebody stealing your account credentials from you directly.

3) They store 98% of their total crypto balance offline with a physical system designed to minimize losses or attack vectors.

> They take account verification seriously

So seriously they blocked my entirely legitimate account from buying and refused to provide any explanation or recourse.
