Frequently Asked Questions
What is a no-KYC crypto service?
A no-KYC crypto service lets you exchange, spend, or hold cryptocurrency without submitting identity documents. Examples include non-custodial swaps (SideShift, Trocador), P2P exchanges (Haveno), and VPNs that accept Monero. Most have transaction limits to stay outside regulated thresholds.
Is it legal to use no-KYC crypto services?
In most countries, yes. KYC laws apply to regulated businesses, not to individuals transacting peer-to-peer. Tax reporting requirements on gains still apply regardless of how you acquired crypto.
What is Monero and why does it matter for privacy?
Monero (XMR) is a cryptocurrency with mandatory privacy built into every transaction. Unlike Bitcoin, Monero hides sender, recipient, and amount by default using ring signatures, stealth addresses, and RingCT.
