  Yes, it is possible to purchase cryptocurrencies anonymously without providing ID. There are decentralized exchanges that allow users to trade cryptocurrencies without the need for ID verification. However, it's important to note that these exchanges may have lower liquidity and fewer trading options compared to centralized exchanges. Additionally, using anonymous wallets and privacy-focused cryptocurrencies can further enhance anonymity in cryptocurrency transactions.

  No, it is not possible to purchase cryptocurrencies anonymously without providing ID on most reputable exchanges. KYC (Know Your Customer) regulations require exchanges to verify the identity of their users to prevent money laundering and other illegal activities. However, there are some peer-to-peer platforms or individuals who may be willing to sell cryptocurrencies without ID verification, but caution is advised as these transactions may carry higher risks.

We require ID verification to prevent fraud, money laundering, and other illegal activities. It is important to choose exchanges that prioritize user security and comply with regulatory requirements.
