Since FTX is gone. And Binance/Bitmex are all KYC. Any decent exchanges which are KYC free ?

I heard good stuff about Bybit. Says no kyc for <2BTC withdraws.

What does everyone use?
Seems every exchange nowadays started to implement KYC which is really making some people pissed off.
A lot of people also are afraid of centralized exchange now. So for sure, some of these people are starting to be forced to undergo with KYC process to some centralized exchange that is reputable just like Binance.
So for me, if you don't want to submit KYC, others are right, Kucoin is the solution.

MAaaN...!! CUT THAT STUPID SHIT

I can attest with Kucoin as I did trading on this site several times and didn't encounter any withdrawal problem.
But yes, your suggestion of withdrawing the funds after you trade is a must in every exchange.
Because no matter what the reputation of the site is, you should always keep in mind that it is always best to secure your coins in your own wallet.
I think there are still several non-kyc exchanges, however, topping my list is also kucoin. Bybit, haven't tried this one yet.

Kucoin can indeed be an exchange option that doesn't need to do KYC with a maximum daily trading limit of 2BTC without KYC. and to make withdrawals without KYC it is limited to 5BTC per 24 hours.
and for an exchange that really doesn't limit users without KYC is Exchange CoinSwitch which doesn't put a limit on how much one can withdraw each day.

The two exchanges that we would recommend would be Kucoin and Bybit.

We wrote reviews on both these exchanges for anyone interested:

https://www.thecryptobreakdown.com/exchanges/kucoin-review
https://www.thecryptobreakdown.com/exchanges/bybit-review

But the TLDR is that both of these exchanges allow users to deposit and trade cryptocurrencies without KYC.

And they both also offers a wide range of cryptocurrencies, 700 for Kucoin and over 300 for Bybit.

Having said that, we would recommend that you do your trading there and then withdraw your funds to a non-custodial wallet.

Kucoin is KYC exchange but can allow deposit and withdrawal without KYC, I think it is an alternative to FTX but it shouldn't be relied on. Although they have a good reputation after bouncing back from their security bridge back then, they are now well prepared and have a strict security on their exchange which include a trading password before any transaction, with this one can trust them a bit as a marketing exchange for buying Bitcoin and sending out to our personal wallets.

There are two exchanges I use that say no kyc for <2BTC withdraws. kucoin  and coinex exchange, I think they are a good choice for those who are looking for an alternative to FTX at the moment, there is good liquidity and good daily trading volume. But in general, after these recent incidents, there is no safe central exchange in my opinion, if you want to trade it is better to use a small part of the capital only or use decentralized exchanges.

I have tried Kucoin, but cannot say about coinex. Kucoin is great in terms of user interface and customer support. But I use these exchanges basically just for trading. They don’t have these direct withdrawals. I mean in my country, Bitcoins aren’t legalised, so yes they don’t have the option for direct withdrawal to my account. I guess it’s better to use P2P exchanges to get Bitcoins into FIAT, for that OP you can try paxful with limits, or else localcryptos can do the work too.

Bitcoin makes the world go 🔃
I think here there is only one culprit who wants to take charge of everything and his name is Binance, now more than ever I would recommend anyone to take all their funds out of that and all exchanges, Binanc wants to control absolutely everything, the only exchange The one I see as the most reliable and always very careful is Bitfinex, because it is the one I see most seriously and does not kneel in front of governments and world police, an exchange should not block people's funds, only because investigations are started for other countries , this has happened in Colombia, with the FTX with a simple tweet I can't imagine everything they can do later.


Bitfinex is involved in many controversy as it was linked on shady stablecoin USDT. If Binance is not trusted then most of crypto exchange is not reliable anymore because Binance control the majority of the volume on crypto so it’s very for them to lose it without fixing the problem to maintain there operation. They have a huge steady profit on there exchange which is why they will maintain there reputation as much as possible.

Bybit is one of the good exchange that offers no KYC to its customer with huge limit compared to other exchange that still offering no KYC feature. I’m not sure if Bitfinex offers no KYC but there sahdy past of printing USDT out of thin air makes there reputation tainted.

I don't advise you to put all your wealth on one exchange platform, why don't you want to pass KYC? This is a security precaution to prevent money laundering, etc. but if you have other reasons, I advise you to deal on the AAX exchange, as it is a famous and reliable platform, in addition to that you can withdraw 2BTC within 24 hours without KYC. Also, the BaseFEX platform has no limits on withdrawals, and you can withdraw only bitcoins from this platform as well The Crypton exchange platform, whose link I put in my signature code, does not have KYC and there are no withdrawal restrictions, and there are many other exchange platforms but do not forget to do your own research about the platform that you will deposit your money on.

Im using Pionex because of builtin trade bots.
If you prefer spot trading, theyre good to go, they dont offer Futures. Low trade fees, only 0,05% same usdt pairs as binance(theyre somehow connected to binance)
No KYC for lvl1 verification(only email verification),no kyc daily withdrawal limit <2000usdt.
I thought you are talking about poloniex but after reading it again, I realized that this one has a different spelling. I think trading bots are now a common feature for an exchange so if this is the only best thing that they can offer then it will be hard for them to succeed. They don't have futures and we know that futures is one of the in-demand feature many people are after to these days.

When it comes to their KYC policy, I think this was also common and afaik kucoin have this too but kucoin is already more known that this exchange you are offering so people will easily head on them but who knows, there might still be people who will try this.

Did some research and there is some fud going around with Bybit now. Apparently they are DMing people to deposit funds and they had some connection to FTX.

Most likely won’t open any accounts until this storm clears in the next month or so.

Even crypto.com is having some fud. They hold large amount of SHIB in their portfolio. A very small cap coin.

Nowhere is safe except maybe Coinbase, Gemini, kraken, and cold storage.

Am also hearing stories about Gemini so I wouldn't go there either.
If it is necessary better go with Coinbase otherwise wait till the air is cleared. It is really getting tougher to get a trusted none kyc exchange this days. It is a shame localbitcoin went the kyc way. It use to a great p2p platform.

Without KYC, I'd say Kucoin. I am using this exchange since 2019 till now they have not halted any of my withdrawals and never asked for KYC verification.

i use binance.

For derivatives you can use DYDX, they do not require KYC but still they control the users and ban US customers. Currently I use Binance for shicoins and DYDX for small trading on BTC and ETH. FTX was my option for going big on BTC and ETH Sad.  Bybit looks good but they have low liquidity in shitcoins if you go big (>100k positions)

If we're talking about no mandatory CEXes, take a look at: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--5414539

Perhaps instant exchanges could be of some use for some quick swaps, see: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/list-instant-exchanges-5218464

Kucoin is a very good exchange and I was surprised it isn't up there competing with Binance instead scams like FTX was been praise to be the next big exchange. Kucoin has been steadily evolving and their service are as top notch as that of binance with obvious advantage over it like non kyc withdrawal and great opportunity to invest in new project for the high volume exchange list them.
What I love about Kucoin is they don't hesitate to list new projects as they're launch. This give their customers an opportunity to research and be among first buyers of the project before they're been discovered and pump to full potential.
Apart from Kucoin, I also use other non KYC exchange like Pancakeswap and Uniswap. If you're trading tokens on the Ethereum or binance smartchain, this two decentralized exchanges are very comfortable to use than the centralized ones.

There are FUDs with Bybit as well which makes it more risky to try for now, though looking at their status maybe it’s just a fud and you can try using that exchange as long as you don’t store your funds with them. Exchanges now are being more careful, because of what happened to FTX and recently, top exchanges shows their financial status and holdings, probably to gain the trust of every investors and tell the public that they are pretty solid so better not to panic.
Bybit e a good exchange but we shouldn't be looking to keep our coins there because no exchange is safe right now, not even Binance which is the biggest of them. I have learnt the habit of staying off exchanges unless I have one or some business with them. Exchange is good if you know how to at your game, you can trade there with less fund and remove your fund when you are done.

 We should not always relax to move from one exchanges to the next one when we see the current situation that is going on  in the crypto market. Many had lost their funds and because we are not victim yet, we don't have to a sip of the pain it could caused us.

Thier is a exchange which I know that kyc is not mandatory on the exchange with is kucoin, if you want to trade on KuCoin you don't really need to submit your kyc, but if you want to make use of their P2P then you have to submit your kyc before you can do that. Kucoin is kind of different from binance, you can't access anything from binance if you don't submit your kyc but you are free to do anything on kucoin even without kyc being submitted, but I think their is a limit for daily withdrawal.

The decent exchange that's KYC free that I believe can handle 2BTC withdraw or more only deals with crypto to crypto trading and you find a list of it on KYCnot but in the site exchange list, Crypton Exchange appears to be outstanding and also provide instant withdrawal. Besides, it was created by a privacy focus project called Utopia p2p.
I have seen their campaign on this forum but I made use of the exchange before they started their signature campaign.

 - Because of what happened to FTX, maybe the partnering companies that are also local exchanges are also nicking somehow because they might be affected by bad events here as well. So maybe it's right for others to be transparent so that the doubt or trust stays with them.

Then the giving of FUD in various fields of business here in the crypto space, I think it's normal for them, maybe those kinds of things. Like what happened to crypto com (CRO) who made the mistake of sending a large amount to gateio exchange which is just FUD happening here.

~snip~If a place doesn't ask for your KYC that means they don't really care about the laws, and they just operate in a pirate way, which means if they are "hacked" like all the many that happened so far, there is absolutely nothing you can do, and all of that money is gone. Which is why it’s too dangerous.

it's such a tough choice to make. When we do KYC, our personal identity will be known and we are afraid that it will be misused, but when a hack occurs, the possibility to get assets back may go well because everything is recorded and has been protected by an official legal entity. but when there is no KYC and there is no legal entity that regulates it, when hacked or exchanges steal our assets, then there is nothing we can do, because they are indeed illegal and no legal entity can catch them. Of course, this will be a difficult thing to choose, depending on which is more important.

Some are still using non-kyc exchanges because they don't want to submit their personal details, especially those small-time traders.
There are still few exchanges that I know that don't require KYC for daily withdrawals of 1 btc and below like kucoin or nominex.
I have accounts in both exchanges, and used them several times. However, it is up to the user how he will trust these exchanges.
If you are using nonkyc exchanges, better get out fast your funds after your traded your coin. Don't leave or store in any exchange.

Let me start with your last question – I use Binance. It's my major exchange. Then back to your first question – I won't trust any exchange that says it doesn't make KYC compulsory at a time like this when we know how SEC has been breathing down on their necks to move towards knowing their customers as a way of discouraging money laundering. Recall that when Binance started in 2017, it was free registration without a KYC until recently when it started restricting accounts without KYCs from not just withdrawing but from trading at all. In fact, Binance started with trading without commission charged on trades. That was exceptional then. It got many traders running to that exchange. Today, there are numerous charges that one can't even tell what and what the charges are for.

I would say maybe not look for a no KYC exchange. I mean if you want to use an exchange, you can't get any better than Binance and they will do as best as they could every possibly do for every single customer since that would be the key to their success and they are bigger than most banks in the entire world so you know they are protected like fort Knox, there is no problem there. So giving your KYC to them shouldn't really be a problem, unless you are a criminal.

On the other hand, for all the "under the radar" moves that you want to make, you could use DeFi, like pancake or 1inch or whatever you want to use, and that way you could move it around with a custodial wallet like metamask, and everything will be sort of hidden as well, only the entry and exit will be known, rest will be hidden.
I agree with this, there is no situation where you should be considering KYC and feel fine about it. Because if you are not giving your KYC to a place, how legit could they be? I mean if a place is asking for your KYC that means they are forced to, because they are legit and they comply with the laws of the nations they are working with and KYC is part of it.

If a place doesn't ask for your KYC that means they don't really care about the laws, and they just operate in a pirate way, which means if they are "hacked" like all the many that happened so far, there is absolutely nothing you can do, and all of that money is gone.

I don’t think any exchanges are available where you can trade without KYC. KYC is required in each and every popular and reputable exchanges. I have heard about Bisq from some of my friends, but as I haven’t tried it personally and therefore won’t recommend you. If you see then currently only some P2P exchanges available which doesn’t require KYC. Localcryptos, are one of the best place for P2P deals without KYC. In paxful also they allow trades with certain limits without any KYC. Check these out OP.
Some exchanges currently trading without KYC verification, and they are many that done such, so therefore, on my own can't trade to an exchange who doesn't take KYC verification serious, because i noticed KYC verification is something that will make you to feel relaxed in exchange. But exchange like binance, without KYC verification they do not accept trade without a proper steps of verification.

AFAIK, Kucoin is still non-kyc for the low limit of 1 BTC withdrawals per day. Well, based on the website blog, they also have a 400 USDT limit for nonverified accounts. For most info, you can look it on their website.
(https://www.kucoin.com/support/360015102254-About-KYC-Verification)

i can also recommend kucoin if you are not really a big timer as you can still enjoy trading without kyc so long you are not going over their daily limit. but hey, 1 btc daily withdrawal limit is already big. just think of using it everyday. i will consider you as a big timer already if you will avail their daily withdrawal limit.
however, if you will use their p2p services, for sure, you do need to undergo kyc. but if you will deal with crypto only, i can say, so far, i haven't had any problem with this exchange.

Every centralized exchanges that offer NO KYC with a requirement of withdraw less than 1 BTC, 2 BTC per day and so on is a big lies. Although right now you can use it without KYC, but you can't know when the exchange want to ask your KYC because their reason would be your activity is suspicious etc etc and you can't have any choice either let your funds stay on the exchange or KYC your account.

Bisq is the best if you want to buy coins etc Bitcoin, Monero etc and it's 100% KYC free.
True , it's like a trap ..

Especially whenever you have coumpounded the money there and the exchange see it , feels like an exortion if you ask me . They would do ask for kyc anyway ... just the matter of time and they will catch you with no choice but kyc still in the end , what a cruel business .

I'm using OKX and Mexc (since on the rise) and so far with no issues. Not an FTX user here, so can't say it's alternatives and don't know a standout comparison of them.
MEXC is a Tier-2 exchange but it is a good one to buy hidden gems in bull market. In bull market, not in bear market. In bear market, you will more likely to buy falling knives, not hidden gems.

Around ending of a bear market, after altcoins lose 90% or more from their all time highs or previous highest price in a bull market, you can filter altcoins and find gems to buy. It is not a time to do this because bear market is happening and massacre is happening.

Is FTX an ending of this bear market or is it only a start of something worse?

Some exchanges don't require KYC are in https://kycnot.me/

I don't choose non-KYC exchanges and store my cryptocurrency there because KYC or not KYC, it does not decide that exchange is good temporarily or safe in long time.

If a top exchange, Tier 1 like FTX can collapse in less than a week, how do I trust Tier 2 or lower Tier exchanges? I might use them for very small capital of mine, for big capital I will choose Binance. If I don't trade, I store my crypto in my own wallets.

What does everyone use?
Bybit mostly for derivatives.

But most people say that OKX has relaxed KYC verifications requirements. The volumes and liquidity aren't bad, too. I have an account with them but with the first level of verification (name, location etc.) So I don't know which features can use and not use if the account is unverified. Maybe you can check it out.

^On this big list of exchanges that usually did not ask for KYC procedures will probably you find one.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--5270416.
For me, probably DEXs are still a good alternative to them because we know that our fund is safe if we are afraid of a centralized exchange. But it seems right, never leave your fund in exchange for storing it and probably it would be better if every session of your trading activities just withdraw your fund even though the fee will hurting you as long as your whole fund are safe.

Bisq are a good alternative if you're willing to wait to get a trade filled too (it's more anonymous than any cex and has notifications if you're away from your machine so you can see when a trade is initiated - but you can't yet control the trade from your phone).

Best change have a signature campaign here too and there are probably other non kyc p2p places too that have escrow (anything that opened after localbitcoins made kyc mandatory).

Since FTX is gone. And Binance/Bitmex are all KYC. Any decent exchanges which are KYC free ?

I heard good stuff about Bybit. Says no kyc for <2BTC withdraws.

What does everyone use?
