  Unfortunately, most reputable cryptocurrency exchanges in the UK require users to go through a verification process and provide their identification. This is done to comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and know your customer (KYC) regulations. However, there are some peer-to-peer (P2P) platforms or decentralized exchanges (DEXs) that may allow you to buy crypto without ID verification. Keep in mind that using these platforms may come with higher risks and less security compared to regulated exchanges.

  If you want to buy crypto without ID verification, you can try using a decentralized exchange (DEX) like Uniswap or PancakeSwap. These platforms allow you to trade cryptocurrencies directly from your wallet without the need for KYC or ID verification. Just connect your wallet, choose the tokens you want to trade, and confirm the transaction. Keep in mind that DEXs may have lower liquidity and higher slippage compared to centralized exchanges.

  If you're concerned about privacy and want to buy crypto without providing your ID, you can consider using a privacy-focused cryptocurrency like Monero or Zcash. These cryptocurrencies offer enhanced privacy features, making it more difficult to trace transactions back to individuals. However, keep in mind that not all exchanges support these privacy coins, so you may need to do some research to find a suitable exchange.
