What Ninja.Exchange is
Ninja.Exchange is an instant exchange for 170+ coins that needs no registration. Its FAQ says it is integrated with Binance, Bitfinex, HTX, OKX and KuCoin, and that some pairs run through partner services that may apply their own KYC. Its KYC/AML policy reserves the right to request ID, bank statements and source-of-funds documents, and screens customers against sanctions lists. Section 1.9 says a customer who refuses has the deposit refunded to the sending address within 24 hours minus network fees, after which the address may be blacklisted. The terms of use also contain a generic account clause requiring identity verification for registered accounts, ban VPN use and users in the US and UK, and are governed by Seychelles law. No operating company is named; an outsourced compliance officer is.
