Nanswap

Risk-based KYC Instant swap no account

5.9/10 total

Started as a Nano and Banano swap venue and grew into a general instant exchanger with no registration and no email. A quote pulled from its public API on 31 July 2026 priced BTC to XMR about 1.3% under mid, which is competitive for this sector. Its terms are the standard risk-based text: an automated system checks every transaction, and Nanswap can freeze a swap "for any period of time necessary" to run an AML/KYC procedure that can include a scan of your ID.

Weights are published in the method and applied identically to every entry.

For

  • No account or email for web swaps, confirmed in the terms themselves
  • Measured all-in markup of roughly 1.3% on a major pair, cheaper than most accountless swappers
  • Nano-family pairs are genuinely feeless and have sub-cent minimums for testing
  • Public estimate endpoint answers with no key, so quotes are easy to verify independently

Against

  • Terms reserve the right to demand an ID scan and to freeze a swap indefinitely while an AML review runs
  • Terms also allow transferring user data including IP addresses to partners or government bodies on request
  • Blocks US residents along with Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Crimea, Sudan, Syria, Bangladesh and Bolivia
  • Homepage claims 1,000+ assets while the FAQ says more than 300; the lower number is the one the operator wrote in its own FAQ
  • No onion service

Agent access 6/10

Market data and estimates are open, but /create-order requires a nanswap-api-key header from a free account registered on the site. No identity check is involved in getting the key.

Reported separately and not counted in the total. It measures what an autonomous agent can do unattended, not whether the service is safe to use.

Fees

~1.3% in the rate

The terms say Nanswap's remuneration "is included in the final rate". A live BTC to XMR quote taken from the public estimate endpoint on 31 July 2026 came in about 1.3% below the CoinGecko mid price, which is the all-in cost including spread. Nano-family pairs are advertised as feeless.
