Onboarding headaches with new DeFi infra provider, anyone else?

Been trying to get set up with a new infra provider for some of the more exotic yield opportunities I'm exploring in DeFi. The KYC/KYB process has been an absolute nightmare. Feels like I'm trying to get a mortgage in the 80s, not access a supposedly 'decentralised' financial system. The hoops they make you jump through are just insane, especially when you're trying to integrate their API for automated strategies. It makes me wonder if the friction is by design, or if they just haven't figured out how to scale their compliance yet without making everyone want to pull their hair out. Anyone else notice this increasing drag with new providers, or have I just picked a particularly painful one?
