As for Catex (based in China), it seems like it's mandatory. From their privacy policy:

Quote
To comply with global industry regulatory standards including Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Know-Your-Customer (KYC), and Counter-Terrorist Financing (CTF), Catex requires user accounts to undergo user identity authentication for both Personal & Enterprise-level accounts. This entails collecting formal identification.

I used it without KYC and I asked about it in TG before using it.

They said I don't need KYC for the amount I wanted to trade and the amount was pretty low. But I don't know from what amount KYC is mandatory.

Mercatox only requires KYC if you're withdrawing more than 0.5 BTC per day.

Mercatox.com has been added to the comparison. I find it quite interesting that their exchange is not very well-known, but they've literally everything available. The margin trading, the fiat trading, the lending service, etc. are all included in their services.

it's the same as binance. they say they moved to malta but really it's just a business registration and an office. okex's real base of operations is hong kong---or maybe belize, depending who you ask.

in reality, i'm sure they have a physical presence in a handful of different countries.

Okay, so I guess I should edit the OP and add all such references.

Regarding Okex, while googling about it, it seems like the company is based in Malta now? also, the KYC link is leading to a dead page.

This is absurd. I remember they had a nice support desk system at that URL; now it's all completely removed. They should've at least added some sort of redirection or something. Roll Eyes

It's so confusing. According to Wikipedia (and OKEx's official Twitter handle), the company is based in Malta. However, their support team calls only include the phone numbers of Hong Kong and Canada. OTOH, according to the following URL, they're based in Malaysia:

https://www.okex.com/pages/company/contactUs.html

Do they even physically exist somewhere or not?

A couple of DEX'es to add:

- Paradex (an exchange acquired by Coinbase).U.S based, No KYC is required, officially launched (main net) in 2018, 0.15% fee. No withdrawal fees as everything is done P2P.

- Radar Relay. It's U.S based as well, no KYC, no fees.

Both of the exchanges have been added to the comparison. Thanks!

I recently used this exchange to trade a small amount for one of my hodlings.
I contacted (TG group) them to know about their KYC policy before depositing and they told me it is not required for the amount I'm willing to trade.

However, yesterday I made BTC withdrawal which took a long time to confirm (I went to sleep but maybe it took at least 15 hrs) because they paid 2 sats/byte. This is the only thing I didn't like.

If you are interested then you can add this one to the list with further research.

Code:
Name: Catex (https://www.catex.io/)
Launch: 2018 (3rd Quarter)
Trade fee: 0.1% most probably
Listing fee: ?
Btc withdraw fee: 0.0005 BTC
Leverage: No
Mobile app: No
Headquarters: ?
Fiat: No
KYC: At a certain point, not sure about the amount.
Dex: No
2fa: Yes
T/D: https://t.me/catex_group | https://discord.gg/sVEXYWk

Alright, I'll have a look at it right now. Thanks!

Apps: HitBtc (Early access), Indodax.

Regarding Exmarkets, I wrote to them, and apparently, KYC is not enforced as long as your daily withdrawals are not exceeding 10,000 EUR per day.

The addition of URLs to Telegram and Discord channels of all the exchange platforms is now complete.


Yes. Although apparently Quedex is still not offering it?


Why the hell doesn't Quedex have a 2FA login in 2019? Cry


2FA will be implemented soon on Quedex, stay tuned. To date we've had a second step of authentication based on PGP (read more), which technically is a two-step auth, but not two-factor. Proper 2FA is coming.
