What xmr2cex is
xmr2cex takes Monero deposits and pays out Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Litecoin, Tron, BNB, Hyperliquid or USDT/USDC on several networks. Its terms state a strict no-KYC, no-account model with no exceptions for asset, size, location or liquidity source, and say that all outbound liquidity comes from centralised exchanges or providers accessing them. The homepage advertises an average fee of 3.4%, a 1 XMR minimum and 5,000 XMR maximum, an onion mirror and a site that works without JavaScript. Optional login and registration links exist but the terms say no accounts are required. The terms call the service non-custodial, but users send XMR to the service before payout. No operator or company is named.
