What Intercambio is
Intercambio is a privacy-focused swap aggregator devoted mainly to Monero pairs. Its site lists the following features: no accounts, no logging of IP addresses, timestamps or user agents, no JavaScript, and Tor and I2P hidden services. Users can prioritise the best rate or restrict the search to exchanges the site classes as non-KYC. The FAQ says fees are included in the displayed rate and run at roughly 0.5% to 2% depending on the exchange, although some partners may add network fees. Swaps are executed by the selected exchange, not by Intercambio.
