Vexl
Exchanges
Vexl is a peer-to-peer Bitcoin exchange built on a social trust graph — trades only happen between users and their extended social network, eliminating the need for escrow or counterparty trust with strangers. Created by the Vexl Foundation as a non-profit open-source project, it charges zero fees, requires no KYC, and uses end-to-end encrypted chats. Vexl is designed as a privacy-first alternative to centralized P2P platforms, leveraging social relationships as the trust layer instead of ratings or reputation systems.
