CypherGoat works fully without JavaScript and adds small UI improvements when JS is enabled.

@4rkal: i dont understand scam websites like this and trocador with insurances that never pay (just read the laughable terms) and put thiefs like swapuz with KYC Level 0 (or trocador B) even though they dont even have own liquidity and just forward whatever whitebit (another thief, ukrainian exchange) will tell them in reg [... too long, see https://mrelay.p2pool.observer/e/_oHA3d0Kc055cjl4 ]
17:41:14
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
you have exactly one exchange in your list which qualifies for KYC Level 0 and even their terms say explicitly dont send stolen funds that are on watchlists 👍️ make the effort for a coinjoin/tornado and youre fine.
17:43:08
orangefren:matrix.org:
We paid a user out just last week using the deposit system we pioneered 🤷♂️. Nobody wants stolen funds and coinjoins won't untaint them
17:46:56
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
@orangefren:matrix.org: until you draw the connection between coins before coinjoin and after coinjoin the exchange already happened xD and this is if you can draw any connection at all, which is mostly the case with huge amounts
17:49:05
orangefren:matrix.org:
@longtermwhale:matrix.org: With exchanges like FF what they do is if any inputs to a CJ were tainted then all outputs get tainted. A lot of our work is helping innocent users trace their UTXOs back through many many CJ rounds until it's one that has no tainted inputs, thus proving the taint wasn't from them
17:50:25
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
long live protocols that dont implement racism, like eigenwallet and thorchain 👍️
17:51:50
orangefren:matrix.org:
With eigen you get XMR from BTC, so you can't get anything tainted. But providing liquidity for those atomic swaps often get our users in trouble because people sell tainted BTC for XMR
17:52:12
syntheticbird:
wrong enemy, the real racist here is the banks and kyc structures
17:53:42
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
@orangefren:matrix.org: you talk about it like its a bad thing. somebody decide a utxo is bad ... oh no be afraid now! only get your coins from big brother CEX otherwise you might get the bad coins! scary scary
17:54:43
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
@syntheticbird: exactly kyc / kyt structures, thats why its laughable when such websites advertise services like swapuz as kyc level 0. you can just send your coins directly to whitebit without swapuz' cut and get the same requests for kyc, aml and sof xD
17:55:01
orangefren:matrix.org:
@longtermwhale:matrix.org: Eh don't get BTC in a p2p way unless you can prove onchain that you got it p2p. Or use Lightning
17:55:05
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
those websites trick people into safety where there is none

I’m not going to comment on allegations or motives attributed to other services.

The KYC levels on CypherGoat are meant to be useful and trustworthy classifications, not marketing labels or guarantees. They’re based on public terms, observed behaviour and user reports and we document how they’re assigned.

longtermwhale:matrix.org:
if you dont take money from swapuz to give them such a misleading rating thats the classic story about the hooker that gets paid and the slut that sleeps around for free
18:05:40
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
in any case, have a nice evening all said
18:05:44
4rkal:
Terms alone don’t determine KYC level. Enforcement and observed behavior matter. If there’s concrete evidence a rating is wrong, I’m open to it. A link and sarcasm isn’t helpful.
18:06:35

Have a nice evening

ofrnxmr:
iiuc, there are swappers that absolutely dont do aml checks
18:16:30
ofrnxmr:
Orangefren lists them as "never-kyc" and they provide their own liquidity
18:16:53
ofrnxmr:
Swapuz is not a never-kyc exchange and shouldnt be advertized as one
18:17:30
ofrnxmr:
Advertised
18:18:40
orangefren:matrix.org:
@ofrnxmr: We also label services this way if they do refunds without KYC. For instance Xchange.me uses AML checks, but then refunds if they don't like the score
18:19:25
orangefren:matrix.org:
Swapuz previously lied to our users about their rate too. And froze funds in the past also. In the fake rate case we had to use their deposit to make users whole
18:21:38
orangefren:matrix.org:
Then for instance there's WizardSwap or BitcoinVN who don't do normal aml checks, but they still freeze stolen funds when there's a hack or they otherwise find out about it
18:23:21
4rkal:
On CypherGoat, Tier 0 means no routine KYC, not “never AML under any circumstance.” No exchange will knowingly process stolen funds, and that’s true across the industry
18:23:52
hooftly:matrix.org:
@orangefren:matrix.org: This is interesting have they ever gotten funds back to the rightful owners?
18:24:09
4rkal:
@4rkal: Having said that I would like to mention that we have never encountered any KYC/AML issues with any of our KYC tier 0 exchanges.
18:25:40
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
@orangefren:matrix.org: so you think they do a AML check that comes back as 100% sanctioned/stolen and they will return the funds 😂
18:26:12
orangefren:matrix.org:
@hooftly:matrix.org: Yes, usually when funds are frozen they get sent to a lawyer hired by the person reporting the theft
18:26:52
hooftly:matrix.org:
Do I like or dislike this lol its hard
18:27:09
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
@hooftly:matrix.org: you have to dislike this
18:27:34
hooftly:matrix.org:
@longtermwhale:matrix.org: Fair reaction
18:27:39
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
exch.cx was the last one in the internet to reply "well how about you send us some proof those utxo are stolen" before simply freezing
18:28:07
hooftly:matrix.org:
@longtermwhale:matrix.org: This is also logical
18:29:00
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
ALL of those exchanges (cant speak for infinity but they charge up to 10% so who cares) simply accept any incoming email from any wannabe "i am a legit crypto consultant business blah blah" that any utxo from that list is stolen and has to be frozen
18:29:13
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
thats the problem with this system
18:29:22
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
cant speak so much about the forwaring the money without questioning, but the freezing happens without questioning
18:29:44
orangefren:matrix.org:
Well not proof of theft, they asked for a police report. So proof of you actually reporting a crime > <@longtermwhale:matrix.org> exch.cx was the last one in the internet to reply "well how about you send us some proof those utxo are stolen" before simply freezing
18:30:26
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
can fake you a police report in 2 minutes

Infinity openly invites people to use them to swap stolen funds. We don't have them listed for this reason :) > <@longtermwhale:matrix.org> ALL of those exchanges (cant speak for infinity but they charge up to 10% so who cares) simply accept any incoming email from any wannabe "i am a legit crypto consultant business blah blah" that any utxo from that list is stolen and has to be frozen

@orangefren:matrix.org: Gross
18:32:02
orangefren:matrix.org:
@longtermwhale:matrix.org: a swapper could ask for something with an apostille, but in the time it takes you to obtain one the funds will be looong gone
18:32:03
longtermwhale:matrix.org:
@orangefren:matrix.org: nobody in the right mind uses this service with their fees. they dont even have meaningful liquidity. at 10% they likely just throw the coins into bisq for 3% and take their 7% xD
18:32:43
orangefren:matrix.org:
I'm amazed Infinity continues to operate despite being openly criminal and the owner being known 🤷♂️
