AnonChange Review Campaign

NOTE:
I did not read other reviews in order not to influence my opinion. What is written here is my honest and first hand experience of the platform.

Swap ID:https://anonchange.com/order/8dc14c06-7c88-4911-a8d7-a60cc57f3230

Pair & Amount: BTC-USDTerc20, 0.00038 BTC ($31.05)

Rate Type (Fixed/Floating): floating - I choose floating because I have used the fixed rate as often as I have used other exchanges, so I decided to use the floating rate today as I see it as a gamble against the network.

Time to Complete:
I started the swap at 12:59 pm and I was told that the transaction will be processed at 2 network confirmations. 20mins estimated time for the network confirmation was given. At exactly 13:21 which is 20 mins, 1 confirmation was not even recorded. So, if we don't control the network time, needless giving the estimation.

In a nutshell, I was refunded after about 3hrs + of trying to swap without knowing why I was refunded.

Rate Received vs Expected: I expected to receive $30.16 but after about 3 hours trying to swap, I was refunded $28.50. The reason the swap was not concluded is what I don't. What I intended to swap was higher than the minimum deposit, why was I refunded instead of continuing with the swap since I choose the float rate.

Support Experience (if used):
After about 2 hours of not receiving my coin, I decided to chat the support. I sent a message and went off screen for a few minutes, before I returned the support concluded that I was trying to cheat the system with arbitrage something I don't know... It was so bad that he didn't even ask me some basic questions. In fact, you have the most aggressive support I have seen. I will attach the screenshot of the chat.



What I liked:

• I can set how much I want to recieve and how much I will send will automatically recalculate vice versa
  
• Cleaness of the UI
• The clarity of fee breakdown
• No KYC or registration required
• The dark mode

What could be improved:

• The letter of Guarantee verification is not straight forward. I will recommend that you list with Bitlist.co because that platform provides easy PGP verification for forum members
• The telegaram I tested was used to tract the swap. Some of your competitors have telegram swapping, where you can start and conclude swap without visiting the website
• Improve the customer support, I don't believe I was labelled a cheat without any interrogations
• Also shorten the estimated time for support to respond to chat. As I messaged support, I was told that support responds with 1 hr. That was why I was confident leaving the screen. Before I came back, support concluded that I was trying to cheat, ended the swap and initiated refund and ended the chat.

Overall Rating: 5/10
I would have rated more than did assuming my swap went through irrespective of the fee and assuming the support was a bit friendly.

- Swap ID: 4a5777aa-ca5c-464b-aa62-d6291ab2d5f4

- Pair & Amount: BTC-USDT (ERC-20) $20

- Rate Type (Fixed/Floating): Float

- Time to Complete: Just 5 minutes

- Rate Received vs Expected: Exactly as i expected.

What i liked:As soon as i entered to test the service, what i liked was the look of the page itself. My eyes don't get tired while looking for what i need, and that dark mode really suits me. The second thing is the exchange speed. I expected speed, but the 5 minute transaction impressed me. I can also track the transaction through Telegram, which is an additional plus.
------
What could be improved: What i would add/improve is the coins you support. I saw that it says some more will be added, but in my opinion, this is too few. In general, for someone who uses 2-3 well-known coins, it won't be a problem. It would also be good to improve chat support so that it responds to messages quickly, because i believe that would make things much easier for some users.

Overall Rating: 8.5/10

Swap ID: cf02b342-7b06-43ea-bb6a-4f4ce01b5c53
Pair & Amount: BTC → USDC, 0.0005 BTC to 39.681086 USDC
Rate Type (Fixed/Floating): Floating
Time to Complete: 36 minutes
Rate Received vs Expected: Very similar amount, less than 2 cents difference
Support Experience (if used):



What I liked:

I created an order for swapping BTC to USDC. The rate was good, I compared to other swap services and it was very close from 2 services that have signature campaigns in bitcointalk. And it was better than another swap that does not have a signature campaign anymore but did before.

The design of the website is clean and easy to understand, and I liked the way it shows the transaction detected and how many confirmations are left. I tested as well the lite version of the website with no javascript, and it worked greatly.

After 2 confirmations which took around 30 minutes I received the USDC with a rate that was very close from the calculated one. Less than 2 cents difference which is very normal after 30 minutes in the crypto market and a floating rate.

I did not test the telegram notifications but I noticed it starts a bot with the id of the transaction, so one click will allow the notifications about the status of the order.



What could be improved:

In the Lite version of the website the text area to type the crypto amount is very small. Because of this I could not see for example how many bitcoins I will receive in a swap of $100 USDC



Because of this, the text area needs to be big to support the 8 decimals of bitcoin 0.00000001

Another thing I disliked is in the main page where we can see all recent transactions. This is bad for privacy because you can try to use this information to deanonymize other orders. The website OrangeFren added a option to their website to not show swaps that publish recent swaps:

This is the post they made:

New filter & warning for services that publish info on recent swaps

One user on our SimpleX group suggested we add information about which services publish information on recent swaps. This information typically contains the pairs used in the swap and the amounts.

Example from Bitania:


Example from FixedFloat:


This can potentially hurt user privacy a lot, especially if there's no way to opt out.

OrangeFren.com now has a new warning and filter allowing you to quickly identify if such a service:

I think it is important to remove this option or have a big delay of many days and hidden amounts to not decrease the privacy of the users.
