Grade: C ()
KYC posture: NO-KYC
Last verified: 2026-09-27
Operating since: 2026-09 · 0y — Domain registered 2026-09-07 (~3 weeks). Brand-new exchange-class service, no operating record, no reputable no-KYC peer-directory listing (only RU exchanger reserve-monitor sites). Tenure is the blocker — Grade C is a TENURE FLOOR and can lift with a clean track record + independent peer coverage.

C Why grade C?

Acceptable with reservations. Posture intact but evidence is older, lighter, or the provider sits on a known weakness (custody risk, history of customer-fund freezes resolved, etc.).

Curator Verdict & OpSec Breakdown

THE BOTTOM LINE

ShadowSwap remains listed for comparative coverage, but carries notable custodial, verification, or track-record caveats that warrant extra user caution.

OpSec Trade-offs & Caveats

▸ Fresh operational history: established recently (2026-09); limited track record under severe market volatility.

Review

Brand-new RU-market no-KYC swap — clean shape, zero track record. ShadowSwap exchanges BTC, ETH, USDT, BNB, WBTC and XMR with no account and no AML checks, offering both floating and fixed rates. It gets the privacy fundamentals right on paper: a published PGP fingerprint (`6E81 4027 DF18 5878 7E39 C0BD B7FD 3B9C 998D A746`) for signed support, a working Tor mirror, and claims that the send and receive legs are unlinked with logs deleted 24 hours after an exchange.

What it doesn't have is history. The domain was registered in September 2026 — about three weeks old at review — with no operating record and no listing on any reputable no-KYC directory; the "recommended by" badges on its homepage point only to reserve-monitor rating sites, which are not independent trust signals. For an exchange-class service, where a bad actor's downside is your entire order, tenure is a hard grade input. We have not run a curator test-swap.

Grade C is a tenure floor, not a knock on the current site: nothing here looks fabricated and the privacy design is thoughtful. It can climb as it builds a clean track record and earns independent peer-directory coverage.

Live ops data

kyc.rip hasn't routed swaps through ShadowSwap yet, so we have no first-party settlement data (typical XMR settlement, slow-tail, confirmations) for it.
