CEX (no/threshold KYC)

Centralized order-book exchanges that historically allowed signup and withdrawals up to a daily threshold without identity verification. This bucket is volatile — limits and policies change without notice and may not apply in your jurisdiction.

What to look for

Use the table below as a starting point. The same rules apply across the site: every claim is dated, sources are linked from each service page, and a service with tiered KYC is no-KYC only up to a threshold that the operator can change at any time. See methodology for how we evaluate entries.
