Website Compiles List of KYC-Free Exchanges, Along With Some Warnings

[Oxumare]

The website Kycnot.me has compiled a list of cryptocurrency exchanges that do not require identity verification to preserve the independence of crypto.

A new website seeking to compile an active list of every cryptocurrency exchange that welcomes traders in some capacity without forcing them to hand over personal information through know-your-customer, or KYC, verification.

Kycnot.me is only concerned with exchanges that support Bitcoin (BTC) or Monero (XMR), asserting that BTC is the largest crypto asset with the most adoption and XMR offers the strongest privacy protections.

The website currently lists 14 KYC-free trading platforms, many of which offer a peer-to-peer marketplace for crypto assets.
