Verification: Automatic verification of the user's phone_number_hash and digital_channel_id. Permitted Activities: Receive crypto-assets, send internal P2P transfers. Hard-Coded AML Controls: Daily send limit ($200), no fiat/external withdrawals, no device linking until upgrade. Tier 1: "Verified User" (Full KYC): Required for banking and high-value functions.
