  Yes, many cryptocurrency exchanges require users to provide a utility bill as proof of address when opening an account. This is done to comply with Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations and prevent fraud. By verifying the user's address, exchanges can ensure the legitimacy of the account and reduce the risk of money laundering and other illegal activities. It is important to note that each exchange may have different requirements, so it is advisable to check the specific requirements of the exchange you are interested in.

  No, not all cryptocurrency exchanges require a utility bill as proof of address. While some exchanges may have this requirement as part of their KYC process, others may accept alternative forms of address verification such as bank statements or government-issued documents. It is recommended to research and compare different exchanges to find one that aligns with your preferences and requirements.
