Anonymous Bitcoin and Altcoin Exchanges

Every option we can find for anonymous exchanges and the countries where people are using them for buying and selling bitcoin and altcoins worldwide.

With many countries regulators requiring a KYC (know your customer) or AML (anti-money laundering) verification process to have “regulated” exchanges, the privacy many people value with Bitcoin, Monero and other Altcoins is always going to be difficult to protect.

We’ve searched long and hard for some of the known and “unknown” options people are using for buying and selling anonymously worldwide.

The Best Anonymous Bitcoin and Altcoin Exchanges currently are:

Changelly

Another that requires Bitcoin or an Altcoin to start trading with, Changelly trades in your browser in real time for most of the popular altcoins anytime. Changelly has been trading bitcoin and altcoins anonymously since 2013 and has a very good reputation (we would remove anyone who didn’t) with crypto currency purchasers.

Mycelium Local Trader

This one flew under our radar for awhile. It’s like localbitcoins used to be, in the mycelium app your location “range” can be shared with other users of the app to trade with people in your area. They have full documentation about how the app isn’t storing users info, exact locations or trades made. Seems local trader has been an option for years and many people have used it with success.

Exchange Base

Super anonymous, claiming to only want “whales” using their exchange, Exchange Base has a small clientele of Crypto Currency holders that want Anonymous Visa Bitcoin Cards, Western Union Transfers, Paypal or wires for Bitcoin, Monero, Zcoin or Litecoin.

ShapeShift

Similar to Changelly, a good one to check the rate you are getting for trading bitcoin to an alt-coin. We have always used Changelly when checking because the fee’s were lower but ShapeShift could lower those at any time.

Bitcoin ATM’s

The bitcoin ATM map covers all of the current and new Bitcoin ATM’s people in your area can buy (if not always sell) bitcoin.

BitKan

Extremely popular in China, allows purchasing bitcoin and altcoins using Alipay and Wechat Pay. The BitKan app features OTC (over the counter) bitcoin buying and selling for users, which again, are mostly in China.

Payfair

Decentralized escrow platform and P2P exchange for EC-20 tokens on the Ethereum Network. The Bitcoin to Fiat pairing being rolled out in June 2018 has us intrigued with Payfair, not 100% sold yet over options though.

WallofCoins

WallofCoins broker sales between buyers and sellers through their cell phones. Not truly anonymous as some people won’t want to give out their phone number. It is close enough to anonymous for most and worth a mention here.

BitQuick.co

Peer to peer anonymous trading. BitQuick let’s people wire, western union or money gram funds to sellers of bitcoin. The rumor we heard is that the wait time for transactions is slow using BitQuick, which is rather ironic, but users of the site have always been paid.
