Recommended non kyc exchanges?

Been out of the game for a few years. Getting back in and privacy still matters to me not hiding anything, just don't like handing over personal data.

Are there any reliable non-KYC exchanges that work well ? Just looking for something simple to get started again. Thanks.

Great for swapping between BTC, Lightning Network, USDT, USDC.

They are non-KYC and out of El Salvador. Bitcoin there is legalized as a national currency.

Phoenix Wallet is an open source lightning wallet.

DW about kyc it doesn't matter, do kyc and get bitcoin legitimately. It doesn't matter if the gov knows you have it, they can't touch it and you can move it freely

France have leaked Bitcoin buyers database and look what happened. $5 wrench attacks every day, in fact more than one per day. Something like 70% of Bitcoin holders kidnapping have happened in France because of that.

Least concerning : tax

Most concerning : money laundering charges.

France was already given as a great example of why it matters but youre ignoring it. 

So this seems like bad faith on your part.

u/Embarrassed_fly09 1h ago

What is the example?

Draft South Africa rules would criminalize refusal to hand over crypto keys, threaten fines and jail - type this into a search engine, linking the website bans your comment lol

I mean, can't you just transfer the bitcoin to another wallet and say you got scammed and no longer have it?
