What NonKYC.io is
NonKYC.io is a centralised order-book exchange launched in 2023 that lists a large number of small-cap and proof-of-work coins alongside major pairs. Exchange-tracking sites describe it as active in mid-2026 with well over a hundred listed assets and a low liquidity rating, and place the operation in Seychelles, although no management team is publicly named. Funds are held by the exchange while they are on the platform. The official site could not be loaded during this review, so the current terms, withdrawal limits and any identity-verification clauses were not checked directly and should be confirmed before use.
