If you are going to use a big exchange in the future then you will need KYC. The only other way to get BTC will be on the black market. Would that put you off?
My money is legal and I don't mind doing KYC. I believe there are few people who really care about KYC. If they want to be safe, they can wrap their Bitcoins and trade them on distributed platforms. That is legit and satisfies their trading needs.
