♻️ DEX.fo — Auto Crypto Exchange 💚 NO KYC/AML 💚 Escrow 1 BTC

@icopress
I create some BTC cards for DEX.fo.
Communication, own btc addresses, design change and paymend went very well. absolutly no problem.

Can it be used like a virtual card?

If you could present the advantages and disadvantages of using this as a review, it would be easier for other members to know about using this card.

🔄 Reminder: automatic recalculation

If the amount you send doesn't match your order, there's no need to create a new one. For example, you create an order for 0.5 BTC but send 0.55 or 0.45 BTC — the system automatically recalculates the order for the amount actually received.

This isn't a new feature, is it?
I tested this previously (with small amounts) by sending a larger amount than the order specified, and the order was recalculated immediately after the deposit transaction was detected.

These personalized Bitcoin cold wallets are being ordered and organized by icopress for a raffle. The wallets can be viewed as collector's items or, upon receipt, loaded with funds and used as a private cold wallets.

Icopress may be able to provide further information regarding the raffle.

Best regards,

No, it is not a new feature, it has always existed on DEX.fo, for as far as i can remember. Your experience is also right, because just like you, in many of my swaps, i have not sent the exact amount in my order and i don't worry about it, because the system would simply recalculate it and just process the actual amount that i sent.

Right, it's not new — Z-tight is correct, it's been there from the start. The post was just a reminder: as MarryWithBTC's reply showed, not everyone knew about it, and some users were still worrying about sending the exact amount. Thanks for confirming it from your own swaps.

Thanks for posting it as a reminder, even though I knew, but these few replies should not become a barrier for you to post them or something similar next time. Maybe you can just add a little title above them like "a little reminder" or "note", like you added.

As it is enough to let others know that it's not an update but a reminder, but I can see you already added it. But why did others even ask? Anyway, it's a good thing to keep sharing them though.

It should be added to the FAQ on the website just with the reply dex.fo answered here, something like:

- I didn't send the exact amount specified, what happens to my exchange?
- If the amount you send doesn't match your order, there's no need to create a new one. For example, you create an order for 0.5 BTC but send 0.55 or 0.45 BTC — the system automatically recalculates the order for the amount actually received.

There are plenty of users who send money from an exchange, and they start to think, what sum I send, if I withdraw .034 from a CEX to DEX.fo, do they take the fee from the amount so I end up sending the wrong sum, what happens, bla bla bla...
Better to have all the angles covered, one less useless conversation with support

Yeah, this is good to know.

Some people also spend more in mining fees than they expect, so the value send is sometimes slightly different than expected.

The exchange rate is all that should mater,  as the amount change could vary

My previous exchange order actually went through; I checked later, and the coins were returned to my original address. I sent them from a casino wallet, so maybe that caused the issues. In any case, I made another exchange, this time sending from my personal wallet. The difference between the standard and fast modes is striking. I sent the equivalent of 100 dollars in Bitcoin. In standard mode, I was supposed to receive 96 USDT, and in fast mode — 88 USDT. I actually wanted to do it through standard mode, but I made a mistake and left the choice on fast, so the fee turned out to be way too high. And overall, I haven't changed my initial opinion: the fees are too high. Perhaps with large amounts it isn't felt as much, but I was exchanging a small amount, and for me, that's a significant chunk bitten off. Also, the stated time for the fast mode — 5–15 minutes — does not match reality. In the end, I waited longer than 20 minutes.

Likewise, I haven't changed my opinion regarding the small number of both coins, networks, and swap combinations. For USDT, the most expensive networks are presented, whereas it is much more cost-effective to receive it on Solana or Polygon. Why this isn't available is a big question. I think the platform would only benefit if cheaper and faster exchange methods were offered; that would attract more users.

Yes, the swap went through, and I received my exchanged coins. Yes, there is no KYC, everything is anonymous. But there are side effects that, in my opinion, are not justified and not outweighed solely by the absence of KYC. Other exchange platforms also offer anonymity and no logs, but at the same time, the exchange happens definitely cheaper, and sometimes even faster. Also, the minimum threshold for an exchange should be lower, in my opinion. If only just to have the opportunity to test the platform rather than immediately risking your coins without knowing for sure what you will ultimately receive (or won't receive). For those who already trust the service, that's fine, but for new users, it is a downside.

Thanks — we'll keep the "reminder" label on posts like that going forward.

Good suggestion, and bitmover's point about mining fees is exactly the kind of case it would cover. We'll think about adding it to the FAQ.

Thanks for coming back and sharing the full picture — glad both swaps went through in the end.

On fees: most of what you're seeing on a $100 swap is the network fee for the USDT payout. ERC-20 and TRC-20 are expensive networks right now, that's well known, and on small amounts that fixed cost takes a big share. Cheaper networks are in development.

On timing: the 5–15 minute window starts once your deposit has its required network confirmations, not from the moment you hit send. Until we've actually received the coins, the exchange can't happen — that's normal for any service.

On the minimum: we're not planning to lower it. $30 is already as low as we can go — precisely because of network fees, smaller swaps can end up running at a loss.

Appreciate the honest feedback, it helps us see where things need to be explained better.

I generally agree with the points you mentioned in your original post, the fee you paid for fast mode is extravagant. Personally, I find the delay you mentioned negligent, a five minute delay is only a tiny inconvenience, but I understand it from your side, you paid an extra, significant amount in fees that didn't satisfy what it was advertising. Apart from that, my main concern is about the minimum threshold, what exactly do you mean? The minimum exchange amount is approximately $30, do you think it should be lower? I know that most centralized exchanges have a minimum of $10 to $15, if that's what you're implying.

I think the platform would only benefit if cheaper and faster exchange methods were offered; that would attract more users.

I wanted to ask if you considered the network you used during the swap. If you send through USDT TRC-20, you'll receive 88 for 100 transaction. It will also be displayed. During my first review, I complained why TRC will be expensive than ERC, I was given an answer, but I can't remember what the answer was.

So, consider if you choose an expensive network + the fast and white, which made the fee became big.

For minimum deposit, $30 is very okay. I only saw $10 min deposit recent by a project that I reviewed, although it look nice.
