I wanted to try paying for Mullvad VPN using a private method (Monero). I created a wallet and went to an exchange (Kraken) to buy some XMR, but they want me to enter all my personal details upon registration. How does this make sense? Is there an exchange where I don’t have to provide personally identifying information?
That brings it’s own share of risks as well. Like getting scammed for example.
There are dedicated events in the crypto scene, where people meet to sell and buy directly from each other To avoid KYC
