[ANN] NoxSwap: fixed-rate swaps, 536 coins, Monero first, Tor mirror, PGP

[noxswap]

does that include stolen coins, or coins coming from sanctioned addresses? would those also get refunded without any question asked?

Fair question, and no. Let me be precise, because my earlier reply was too short.

What "no KYC" means on NoxSwap

• Standard swaps need no account, no e-mail and no documents. That is the normal case for legitimate users with clean coins.
• Every swap is executed by an established exchange partner, and that partner runs automated AML screening on every deposit. Large or flagged transactions can occasionally be selected for an additional check.
• If a legitimate user's swap gets flagged (a false positive, a high risk score from an old mixer hop, etc.) and they decline the check, the deposit is returned without KYC to the refund address, less the network fee, usually within 24 hours.

Stolen coins, sanctioned addresses, proceeds of crime

• Not supported, full stop. Our Terms and AML policy prohibit them, and the executing exchanges refuse them.
• Funds linked to hacks, sanctioned addresses or other illegal activity are not simply refunded on request. The executing exchange may hold them until the case is resolved.
• That is not specific to us. Any reputable exchange or swap service works the same way.

On "don't claim what you can't prove"
Agreed. We don't publish the name of the executing partner, but here is what you can verify without trusting us:

• Independent test swap by BitList on 2 Nov 2026 (210 USDC → BTC, 4 min, rate as quoted), published with the on-chain transactions and the AML check of the coins received: bitlist.co/service/noxswap
• Every order comes with a PGP-signed letter of guarantee: noxswap.io/pgp
• Our AML policy, in plain words: noxswap.io/legal/aml

On data: we store no IP addresses, neither with orders nor in our statistics, and order records are anonymized after 90 days. The executing exchange sees our server, not the user's IP.

In short: private for honest users, not a laundering route for anyone else.

Small update from our side:

• Redesigned the first post. Tor, PGP, the Monero route and reviews are all in one place now.
• The whole site works without JavaScript, so you can do a full swap in Tor Browser on "Safest".
• The swap form now says clearly that the rate is locked for 10 minutes once you create the order. Before it showed a 30s countdown, which was only the preview quote refreshing and confused a few people.

Feedback welcome, as always.

i'm sorry, but that's alot of word to say we are you are not "no KYC". no KYC has one meaning, and it's literally, NO KYC no matter what. if you say you are "NO KYC", and you follow it by "but our exchange partner can ask for KYC", that's bullshit imo.

• If a legitimate user's swap gets flagged (a false positive, a high risk score from an old mixer hop, etc.) and they decline the check, the deposit is returned without KYC to the refund address, less the network fee, usually within 24 hours.

the problem with that is, who's gonna decide what's legitimate and what is not?

[noxswap]

Fair point, so here's a straight answer.

So far none of our swaps has been asked for KYC. It can happen with larger amounts, because the exchange that runs the swap does its own checks. If that ever happens and you say no, your deposit goes back to you, minus the network fee. That's written in our terms, not just a forum promise.

Stolen coins or coins from sanctioned addresses are a different story. We don't accept them, and no, they don't get refunded with no questions asked. Every exchange blocks those, and so do we. We're not here to clean dirty coins.

You're right that claims are cheap. BitList ran its own test swap through us on 2 November and published it with the on-chain proofs: https://bitlist.co/service/noxswap

Better yet, test it yourself. Do a swap, any pair you like, and post here how it went, good or bad. I'd honestly like to see your review in this thread.

For anyone reading, nothing here needs to be taken on our word. Every claim in the review has a public record:

• Deposit transaction (Etherscan)
• Payout transaction (mempool.space), about 4 minutes later

The public record shows that you are forwarding deposits to ChangeNOW and payouts are also coming from that exchange. We already know this exchange loves shotgun KYC and has many negative reviews. I don’t understand why somebody would want to use an instant exchange that is using another instant exchange in the background to process swaps.

Advertising the service as being no KYC is also misleading when you’ve admitted that some swaps might require KYC and we know you are using an exchange with a dubious track record for liquidity.

I just did my first swap on the exchange and the whole thing went smoothly. The only delay in the process is waiting for network confirmation. The fee is fair and I can rate this exchange 8 in a scale of 10. Right now they use  P2SH (Pay-to-Script-Hash) address and if they can add SegWit address for the advantages it offers, my rating will go higher.
