Any recs for the best crypto exchanges with no KYC?

Most of the big platforms are getting super aggressive about forcing KYC, and honestly, I’m getting pretty tired of it. Lately, every time I want to quickly test out a new strategy or explore a new asset, I get hit with the same routine: “Upload your passport,” “Take a selfie,” “Prove your address.” It really sucks all the spontaneity and fun out of the experience. Especially when I want to make a quick trade… I get that there are regulatory pressures, but for smaller trades or basic experimentation, it seems excessive.

I’ve been looking into alternatives and was wondering if anyone here has solid recommendations for no-KYC exchanges. I know there are a bunch of DEXs popping up, some with really slick interfaces, but I'm curious what’s actually working well for people right now in terms of speed, reliability, and liquidity. Bonus points if the platform also offers some level of privacy or anonymity.

Are there any hidden gems out there that you’ve had good luck with? Ideally, I’m looking for something that doesn’t feel sketchy but still respects the user’s right to stay private. Would love to hear what the community is using and if anything has really stood out lately.
