Add AtomicDex, it's is a cross-chain atomic swap dex that supports all bitcoin-based protocols, ethereum/erc20, tezos and possibly any other protocol coin as long as it supports a minimum required set of rpc calls. It's based on Komodo's maketmaker software for cross-chain atomic swaps, in fact it's the third iteration of this technology: https://github.com/KomodoPlatform/atomicDEX-API https://developers.komodoplatform.com/basic-docs/atomicdex/introduction-to-atomicdex.html

Monero doesn't support atomic swaps yet, but if this changes in future it will be possible to integrate it as well.

-Orderbooks & ordermatching are p2p, each node reconstructs an orderbook based on what it receives from its peers -It works both with full nodes or in lite mode via electrum servers, default mode is lite mode for the AtomicDEX gui -Multiple GUIs and integration in 3rd party services are possible, sharing the same liquidity pool -Liquidity multiplier: makers can setup as multiple orders with the same funds, the first that gets filled cancels all others. -Beside the coins own tx fee, there's a 0,13% taker fee paid in whatever coin the taker is exchanging

On the roadmap there are an OTC mode for direct swap between 2 users, and a bot for CEX/DEX arbitrage

Latest updates:

Desktop alpha 0.1.5 https://github.com/KomodoPlatform/atomicDEX-Pro/releases/tag/0.1.5-alpha

Mobile beta 0.2.17 Android https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.komodoplatform.atomicdex iOS https://testflight.apple.com/join/c2mOLEoC

Please consider adding our exchange, https://bitfineon.com

suggestion: https://switchain.com is non-kyc

------------- @pluja added: --------------------

Investigating. Will not be listed until more investigation / feedback is recieved.

From ToS: Switchain's service has a risk scoring system that was created to identify suspicious transaction activity. If a transaction is flagged by our system, the transaction is put on hold and the customer who initiated the transaction will be asked to pass AML & KYС verification.

AML/KYC procedure includes confirming the identity of Users by means of:

  • A high-quality photo of their ID (passport or driving license) valid in their country.
  • Proof of the origin of funds.
  • Any other applicable documentation.

Please consider adding the Phore Marketplace to your list. It works in a completely decentralized way, similar in some ways to Bisq which is already on your list. It does not support fiat purchases yet, which clearly is harder to do without any form of KYC. Trading is currently supported for Bitcoin and Phore in both directions, as well as purchases of Dogecoin, Ethereum, and Reddcoin for Phore or Bitcoin, with many more to come.

No KYC is even possible--traders trade directly with each other. The only time anyone else is involved would be a 3rd party moderator helping to resolve disputes, and even in the case of disputes there is no need for KYC, since for crypto trades it would mainly be resolved using publicly available blockchain data.

hadimansouri avatar Jun 14 '20 07:06 hadimansouri

I suggest https://bity.com

  • no account is required. Logging in as guest https://bity.com/exchange/ (account is needed only for KYCed users to trade over limits)
  • There is an open API that can be used without authentication: https://doc.bity.com/exchange/v2/
  • Works for BTC and ETH (not XMR yet, but they already have it KYCless on their ATMs in Switzerland)
  • Buying AND selling are both possible BTC ->EUR/CHF and EUR/CHF -> BTC
  • Limits are :
    • 5000 CHF max daily
    • you have to sign a message with your wallet so you can prove you control the receive address. (works well with electrum).
    • Fiat part works only with EUR and CHF if you have an account that has an IBAN.

------------------- Added by @pluja ------------------------- Will not be listed. Reason:

  • Has too many bad reviews on TrustPilot: https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/bity.com?languages=en&stars=1

Thanks for looking into it, @pluja . If you dig into some other exchanges that have already been listed on kycnot.me, they share almost an identical policy. i.e. https://changehero.io/aml-kyc

i've traded with switchain for almost 3 years and never had an issue while also working with them a bit during my time employed for one of the more popular multi-currency, non-custodial crypto wallets.

------------- @pluja added: -------------------- I'm currently investigating, give me some time. It's true that changehero has similar policies but it gives refund without needing KYC if asked at some point. @Krypt1k86 can you answer if Switchchain does KYC and if they give the option of refund without KYC?

------------------------------ @krypt1k86 replied:--------------- My apologies for the delay, @pluja . Yes, in the rare instances where KYC is requested, if the request is denied by the user, the funds are returned without any additional information required.

------------- @pluja added: -------------------- No worries @Krypt1k86 , is this written anywhere? I can't find it on https://www.switchain.com/policy and would be nice to assure it is written somewhere.

Will not be listed. Reason:

* Has too many bad reviews on TrustPilot: https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/bity.com?languages=en&stars=1

This is a swiss licensed company with a 6 years track record. It can be found on the swiss financial authority website (search for bity here: https://finma.ch/en/authorisation/self-regulatory-organisations-sros/sro-member-search/ )

Bity api is implemented also in myetherwallet , Edge, Spot.

The trustpilot score is currently in full progression as you can tell from the overall mark. I would argue that judging only by trustpilot is limited.

@pluja what would it take to make you reconsider it?

rachyandco avatar Jun 14 '20 19:06 rachyandco

tokens.net - KYC is definitely not enforced. You can try it.

@jugi1 you sure about Polo? https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-05-31/goldman-backed-crypto-exchange-rattles-users-with-terms-change

Sure I am. There is NO KYC tier. You are looking at article from 2018, and we live in 2020 now.... https://support.poloniex.com/hc/en-us/articles/360040600934-Level-1-Account-FAQ

Not sure what criteria is for listing btw. Binance was first listed, and now I see it is removed :/

@peartobear I was already taking a look into Boltz but I couldn't find any user reviews / feedback, so I'm waiting to find more information or having the chance to test it.

pluja avatar Jun 18 '20 06:06 pluja

@pluja Please feel free to test it. You can even use our testnet version: testnet.boltz.exchange if you like. We were widely covered upon release: https://twitter.com/SatoshiLite/status/1113919481477120001?s=20

Could you please add LocalCoinSwap (https://localcoinswap.com), we are a KYC-free exchange with significant daily volume. We offer trading in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dash, and Stablecoins. We allow both buying and selling, most traders do not require identification, and cash is a popular option.

Thanks, love your site!

EDIT: Made a PR for the request ourselves, to reduce developer hassle: https://github.com/pluja/kycnot/pull/34

As mentioned in the PR, we would like to write a blog post to promote KYCNOT.ME and publish it on our site, if that is ok.

CodeForcer avatar Jul 15 '20 20:07 CodeForcer

@CodeForcer Hi! KYCNot.me code has just been rewritten so old pull request are no longer valid.

I need to put some investigation on localcoinswap.com, and maybe test it myself. As far as I have seen the community has not talked a lot about localcoinswap and I will need to investigate a bit more myself!

I hope you understand.

pluja avatar Jul 16 '20 08:07 pluja

@pluja no problem, let me know if you push new code as I'm happy to update a PR.

Can I ask where you normally get your news and community input regarding P2P trading? We are always looking for more places to interact with people who may not be aware of the privacy-respecting alternatives to mainstream crypto exchanges.

CodeForcer avatar Jul 16 '20 11:07 CodeForcer

@CodeForcer Normally I do some research on the internet, not a single place. I look on places like Trustpilot and other reviews I find and try to contrast them (sometimes it seems strange if it always are too good).

Also, I look on reddit and Twitter. I value if people are speaking good about it and if there's an active community behind it.

Lastly I try to test the services myself, but this is much slower than the research itself.

Check https://btdex.trade/, code available here https://github.com/btdex/btdex/

Currently allowing cross-chain for BTC, LTC, ETH, and DOGE against BURST as well as instantly creating new tokens and listing them for exchange. Monero will be added next.

jjos2372 avatar Jul 25 '20 13:07 jjos2372

Consider adding the blue bolt icon (LN capable) to exchanges that allow deposit or withdraw on the BTC-LN network. This looks great on the services tab and would be a nice addition to the exchange tab
