I want to buy bitcoin but I don't want to go through the Know Your Customer (KYC) process. Is there any way to purchase bitcoin without providing personal identification?

- Dec 28, 2021 · 3 years agoUnfortunately, most reputable cryptocurrency exchanges require users to go through the KYC process in order to comply with regulations and prevent illegal activities. However, there are some peer-to-peer (P2P) platforms and decentralized exchanges (DEX) that allow users to buy bitcoin without KYC. These platforms connect buyers and sellers directly, eliminating the need for a centralized authority to verify identities. Keep in mind that using P2P platforms and DEX may involve higher risks and lower liquidity compared to traditional exchanges.
- Dec 28, 2021 · 3 years agoBuying bitcoin without KYC can be challenging, as most exchanges prioritize compliance with regulations. However, you can explore options like Bitcoin ATMs or Bitcoin gift cards. Bitcoin ATMs allow you to purchase bitcoin with cash without the need for KYC. Bitcoin gift cards, on the other hand, can be purchased with cash or online and redeemed for bitcoin without KYC. It's important to note that these options may have limitations in terms of availability and fees.

Our non-KYC option allows users to buy bitcoin without providing personal identification. However, please note that this option is subject to certain limitations and may not be available in all regions. We encourage users to carefully consider the risks and legal implications before choosing this option.
