> "Where to buy Monero without KYC?

UK resident here, so basically every major exchange either delisted XMR or never listed it in the first place. I kept hearing about THORChain finally bringing Monero but that’s been “soon” for years and I need something that actually works right now. Turns out it’s still not really there yet. Integration is close and even moving toward live swaps but no clear timeline so we can’t rely on it today Is there a simple and non custodial way to swap into XMR? It seems pure headache at the moment, ZEC has near intents, what does Monero have?"

Want to move some BTC into XMR but every platform with decent rates seems to want an email or phone number at minimum. Not trying to do anything complicated just want a simple swap without creating an account. What are people using for this that requires zero registration?"

Had some BTC sitting around for a while and finally want to move some into XMR. Don't want to sign up anywhere or hand over documents, kind of defeats the purpose. Most threads I found are old and half the options mentioned don't seem to work anymore. What are people actually using for this?"

> "Est-ce que MProve-Nova pourrait ouvrir la porte à un ETF Monero sans sacrifier la confidentialité ? Question sérieuse pour la communauté et les devs.

Salut à tous, Je me pose une question depuis quelques semaines et j’aimerais avoir l’avis de gens qui connaissent mieux la crypto sous le capot que moi. On sait tous pourquoi aucun ETF Monero n’existe et n’existera probablement jamais dans l’état actuel des choses : aucun custodian ne peut produire une preuve de réserves auditable sans casser le principe même de confidentialité de XMR. C’est aussi, à mon avis, une des raisons structurelles des vagues de délisting qu’on a vécues (73 exchanges en 2025, AMLR européen qui va forcer les derniers custodians à sortir en 2027)."

Please stay on topic: this post is only for comments discussing the uncertainties, shortcomings, and concerns some may have about Monero. NOT the positive aspects of it. Discussion can relate to the technology itself or economics. Talk about community and price is not wanted, but some discussion about it maybe allowed if it relates well. Be as respectful and nice as possible. This discussion has potential to be more emotionally charged as it may bring up issues that are extremely upsetting: many people are not only financially but emotionally invested in the ideas and tools around Monero."

Hi everyone, I have a question and I'm a bit confused about how taxes work when using swap services. Over the past several months I've used Fujn Swap to exchange crypto. It never asked for ID or registration, and they told me there is no logs. Most of the crypto I exchanged came from P2P purchases, and I've mainly been swapping between Monero and XRP. Now I'm wondering if I've made things more complicated for myself when it comes to taxes. If I want to report everything properly, where do I even start? Do I just keep my own records of swaps, or is there something else I should be doing?"
