A short tour of where things actually stand

The no-KYC space in early 2026 is dominated by three forces:

  • Decentralised P2P keeps gaining liquidity (Bisq, RoboSats, Vexl).
  • Aggregators like Trocador and OrangeFren make swap hopping invisible.
  • Compliance creep at custodial swaps continues — if your transaction looks 'risky', expect a hold.
For users: prefer non-custodial paths whenever the trade is large enough that a hold would hurt.
