It seems that all exchanges have to comply with UK KYC laws to be able to operate here. Is there an exchange I'm missing? I've tried Binance, Kucoin, Coinex, Kraken – all of which require a form of ID to be able to use their platform. I don't think it's possible to have a non KYC exchange here because anyone allowing GBP deposits without KYC is probably acting illegally.
How can I purchase crypto using pounds without having to kyc? The whole purpose of crypto is for banks and institutions to have less of a say in our lives, but with regulations, that is becoming harder and harder. I was thinking of swapping pounds for bitcoin then transferring that btc to a DEX to buy coins. Maybe there's something easier I'm missing.
