Nowadays, many centralized crypto exchanges require KYC (Know Your Customer) verification due to government compliance regulations and their own security policies. This usually means uploading your ID documents to the exchange, and without completing KYC, you won’t be able to trade.
This article collects several exchanges that still allow deposits, withdrawals, and trading without KYC.

1. MEXC https://www.mexc.com/
MEXC is known for its extremely low spot and futures trading fees. It’s very popular among Chinese users, including people from Hong Kong and Taiwan. The exchange supports over 3,000 different tokens.
If you skip KYC, you won’t be able to use fiat trading, and your daily deposit/withdrawal limit is capped at 10 BTC. 
If you hold MEXC’s platform token, you can enjoy extra benefits such as new-token airdrops and trading fee discounts.
2. HTX https://www.htx.com/
HTX (formerly Huobi) is one of the oldest exchanges. Although it has had issues in the past, it still has many active users. It lists a wide variety of tokens and frequently runs different campaigns (even though the rewards tend to be rather small).
Fees are average, and you can pay fees using the platform token or TRX.
Without KYC, the daily limit is 5 BTC.
3. XT Exchange https://www.xt.com/
XT is a newer exchange and not ranked among the top 10 globally.
Trading fees are average—slightly cheaper than HTX.
If you don’t complete KYC, the daily limit is $6,000,000 USD, but like the others, fiat deposits/withdrawals are not supported without verification.
Final Thoughts
At the moment, only these three major exchanges are recommended for non-KYC users. Many smaller exchanges lack transparency regarding reserves and have a higher risk of shutting down or running away with user funds.
If you are able to complete KYC, the safest choice is still Binance, as it remains the largest exchange with a massive user base and stronger reliability.
