wave: document KYC requirement for issue applications#60
Merged
Conversation
KYC is now required to apply for any issue, not just to withdraw rewards. Update contributor docs accordingly and add a dedicated "Verifying your identity" section that the app's KYC-required prompt links to.

Pull request overview
Updates Wave contributor documentation to reflect the new requirement that users must complete identity verification (KYC) before applying to issues, and adds a dedicated “Verifying your identity” anchor that the app can link to.
Changes:
- Added a new “## Verifying your identity” section (and anchor) with KYC rationale, steps, and failure handling.
- Updated multiple pages’ copy/callouts to reflect KYC being required at application time (not only at withdrawal time).
- Updated the Settings navigation path for completing KYC to Settings → Profile.
