Coin Swap review

Coin Swap is a small swap site for Bitcoin, Lightning, Monero, Litecoin, Dash, and Dogecoin, trying to keep each swap between $4 and $9,999. Its home page and FAQ say nothing about identity checks, KYC or AML, and it links no terms. The rate is fixed for 40 minutes before it becomes floating. Users must send to an address they fully control, and if a trade becomes stuck, it requires one feedback request, which can take 1 to 7 days to process. The home page also says the website is for sale. In our view, Coin Swap fits small swaps only.

Coin Swap in the US and elsewhere

In the US

US availability: Not statedCoin Swap's own pages we checked do not say. This is not the same as no.

If you are a US person, US sanctions rules apply to you whether or not a service asks for ID.

Where you live and the provider's terms

Many services on this page do not serve every country. Some exclude people because of where they live or their citizenship, not only where they connect from. Read the provider's terms before you send funds. If the terms exclude you, do not use the service, and do not try to get around the restriction, for example with a VPN.

Taxes

A service that does not ask for ID does not change your taxes. In the US, the federal income tax return asks a yes-or-no question about digital assets, and you must report digital asset transactions whether or not they result in a gain or loss. In the UK, you may owe Capital Gains Tax when you sell, swap or spend crypto, and you must keep your own records. Rules in other countries differ.

No KYC is not anonymity

"No KYC" here means the provider says it does not ask for ID in the cases its terms describe. It does not make you anonymous. The provider's terms may let it ask for ID later. Regulated exchanges you send funds from or to may have to collect information about who sends and who receives a crypto transfer. Your tax duties stay the same.

Funds can be held

If a provider asks for more information during a swap or a withdrawal, it may hold your funds until it gets it. Its terms decide what happens next. In the UK, a crypto business that asks for information on a transfer to or from a self-custody wallet, and does not receive it, must not pass the funds on. Read what the provider's terms say before you send.

How we read the terms

We do not give privacy services a score. We record what each provider's own pages say: when it asks for ID, the limits, who holds your coins and what it costs. Labels come from each provider's terms, never from our guess. How we read the terms
