The five KYC levels
A level says what identity checks a service’s own terms reserve the right to make, read by the bot from those terms. It is not what the signup happened to ask last Tuesday: it is what the documents allow, because the documents are what the service will fall back on. The scale is kycnot.me’s.
No mention of current or future KYC requirements anywhere in the documents.
0 verified →No routine KYC, but the service may request it, share data or block funds if compelled by authorities, legal orders or its own risk review. Refunds are subject to its policies.
1 verified →May request KYC or block funds mid-flow, typically through AML checks, transaction limits or liquidity partner rules. Not mandatory by default, but it can trigger at any time.
0 verified →Required for key features or registration, and may be required arbitrarily at any time.
0 verified →The levels and their weights are kycnot.me’s. Privacy (0–100) starts at 50, moves +25, +10, −5, −15 or −25 with the level, gains 5 for Monero and 5 for an onion or I2P address, and adds the privacy points of every attribute. Trust (0–100) starts at 50 and moves with the listing’s standing, its age, whether a registered company stands behind it, and the trust points of every attribute. The 0–10 total is privacy × 0.6 + trust × 0.4, divided by ten and rounded.
