Hey everyone!
I wanted to share my personal ranking of swap services, that I still consider worth using (or not) in late 2025.
This list is built purely from my own experience (lost money and nerves on bad choices in the past, so I’ve been through the trenches), feedback from high trust people here on the forum, and real world behavior -- not just pretty words in their ToS.
Obviously some of this info might already be outdated, keep that in mind fam. These are just my personal takes I collected over the last like MONTHS WITH BIG S of actually using this shit, so if something changed in the meantime my bad for not updating it. But like I always say, hit me in the comments with your own experience, let me know what y’all think.
Important: Tools like kycnot.me are useful for a quick glance, but they mainly check what the service claims on paper, not what actually happens when things go south. That’s exactly why I’m writing this -- so others don’t have to learn everything the hard way like I did.
Big shoutout to BitList, BitMixList, and all the other similar sites out there - you guys are doing solid work keeping the scene organized.
A few quick notes before the list:
- The list is ordered from the best current status down to the ones I’m more cautious about (still usable in my opinion, but with bigger question marks).
- Zero outright scams are included. If something is a confirmed scam, it’s not here at all or just lmk.
- No affiliates links, I’m not gonna earn money from this list.
I do not include any P2P exchanges in the list. I know that there are many good swap services such as Trevoid, but I only include those that have their own systems and do not rely on exchanges on Telegram/Simplex or elsewhere.
This is obviously just my personal opinion at this moment. If your experience is different or you think something should be moved up/down/removed -- drop a reply, I’ll update the list gladly. The whole point is to make something actually helpful for the community.
Quick status key (from best to riskiest):
🔥 - Top tier in 2025
Solid, no worries at all using that, only champs.
👍 - Good, but watch it
Works great day to day, tons of people use it, but there are some yellow flags popping up (selective KYC, occasional delays, past issues).
👎 - Usable?
Not a scam, withdrawals always went through for me and people I trust, but consistent complaints lately, support sucks or ghosts small tickets, trigger-kyc, reputation clearly went down in the last years.
That’s it. List starts right below!!!!
Cheers!

Here’s the list with links, so the best at the top and the worst at the bottom:
InfinityExch SageSwap WizardSwap SplashTF Xchange Exolix ETZSwap PegasusSwap SilkByte Hellex GodeX Swapuz Quickex Swapter SwapGate GhostSwap SimpleSwapStealthEX (Bitcointalk removed my link ~Suspicious link removed)
ExWell Quick comment from me real quick on why I got new Sageswap, Infinity or Splash sitting at the top while ChangeNOW is down in the dumps.
This is just my personal vibe after actually using all these platforms - each one gave me totally different energy. ChangeNOW straight up froze my bag and hit me with do KYC, send bank statements and all that, That’s why it’s ranked trash in my book. I also dragged down a couple other services that don’t hold their own liquidity, cuz if they don’t got their own reserves you never know when they gonna randomly slap you with KYC or some other, not really zero control but yk.
If you ever had a bad experience with any of the ones I put at the top, lmk fam! Infinity might lose the crown one day cuz their fees are straight up insane lately, but we’ll see how it plays out
I will, of course, try to update the list when I find something new. If you are not on this list, I have probably never used your service (or forgotten about it).
PS: SplashTF would totally has 🔥 if they have deeper reserves
EDIT1: Maybe I exaggerated a little by giving the new Sageswap such a high rating, but I really liked their service and managed to swap a lot of my money without any problems. If anyone has had any issues with them, please write to me
