Re: [ANN] Bridgoro Exchange - Participate in Beta Test and Earn up to 350 USDT
No-KYC means you also won't get my IP-address, so I'm not going to stop using Tor.
We don't collect any user data other than email addresses, which are used only for account registration and login purposes.But as we always say, it's up to you what browser to use. You may face problems with logging in to our exchange, as you are having problems with just visiting Google page using the TOR browser (because of CAPTCHA).
For additional privacy, we strongly recommend creating a dedicated email address for Bridgoro on privacy-oriented services such as Tutanota, StartMail, or ProtonMail.
An Onion version of the platform (without CAPTCHA) will be released once the main exchange version is complete.
Maybe you can expedite this as a privacy feature 
As you know, only a small percentage of internet users are familiar with the Onion network (darknet).
That said, an Onion mirror of the exchange is already planned and will begin development after the successful launch of the current version.
TOR browser doesn't work well with captcha, so there are difficulties in passing it.
Maybe a different captcha can work, Protonmail has a much easier one (for humans).Once the current bugs are resolved, we will experiment with alternative CAPTCHA systems and let users choose the one they prefer.
I don't like installing unknown software, and I don't want them on my system without VM. But as I never use those coins, I'll just skip them.
Of course, whether to install additional wallets is completely up to you, so we don’t force it.To clarify: if you already use Monero GUI and Electrum, then installing officially verified browser extensions such as MetaMask (ETH), SolFlare (SOL), or TronLink (TRX) shouldn't be an issue.
But again, the choice is yours.
This is a BIG problem! You're basically asking users to trust you (to be semi-decentralized). Now it looks like a regular website, but with the additional risk of losing coins because of a bad smart contract.
All I see is an address. I can't see when it was created, and even if it was just fresly created, it could come from a regular wallet.
This is one of the reasons I've never used "decentralized" exchanges: when it comes to the details, I can't verify but have to trust. I'm not in crypto to trust people, and I've seen enough reasons not to trust anyone.
We fully understand your concern. Many people will initially think that any new crypto platform might be a scam.All I see is an address. I can't see when it was created, and even if it was just fresly created, it could come from a regular wallet.

That's a normal reaction.
To address this directly, at the start, our exchange will have maximum amount restrictions.
This is both for user protection and to limit unnecessary risks on our side. Initially, the maximum one-time exchange amount will be $5k in USD equivalent (for high-level accounts).
In the unlikely event of an issue, we, as guarantors, will restore the lost funds to one or both parties. While the chances are extremely small, we've prepared a plan to cover this scenario.
Keep in mind that development has already cost us over 7 months of R&D.
The value of that effort is far greater than any possible short-term scam (10x more than the maximum one-time transaction limit).
It simply wouldn't make sense to spend so much time and resources to risk everything for $5k.
Finally, once the bugs are fixed and we reach the final launch stage, we will conduct a full audit of the code and system.
This won't only increase trust but also serve as strong proof of reliability and great publicity for the platform.
I'm starting to think you're mixing up testnet3 and testnet4: your Beta guide linked to several testnet4 faucets, which made me think that's what you're using, but other parts of the guide make it look like you're using the old testnet. You should probably use the most recent version, which is much easier to get.
We are using BTC Testnet v3. If you need test BTC (tBTC), here are some working faucets we recently tested:https://cryptopump.info/
https://testnet.help/en/btcfaucet/testnet
Alternatively, just send us your tBTC address and we will be happy to send you some directly.
I took one of those offers, and made another deposit on the latest testnet chain. Let's see.... Update: "DEPOSIT TIMEOUT" again 
Could you please send us the TX Hash of your BTC transaction (for the BTC -> XMR offer), so that we can check it on our side?Quote
My post was kinda "work in progress", hence the "messy notes ahead". I'll just quote myself there.
Please feel free to send us your notes anytime and we will do our best to provide clear and precise answers to all your questions.Can we use some of your questions for our upcoming FAQ section?
