Affiliate link: PropRubric may earn a commission if you buy, at no extra cost to you. A commission never changes a value, a score or a ranking.
Twenty-three of the 27 active crypto prop firms PropRubric tracks let you buy and trade a challenge with no identity check at PropRubric’s last check, and only two of them state no check at any stage. Cointracts advertises a no-KYC account on its homepage, HyperPNL states no standard KYC for payouts at present, and Bitfunded lets a funded trader withdraw until cumulative profit reaches $10,000 before it asks for documents.
The firms are listed by the stage at which the check arrives, latest first, “no KYC” is defined by where the check sits rather than whether it exists, and the two firms that verify before you buy close the page.
The same firms are ranked by other measures on the lists of on-chain prop firms, Indian traders at crypto prop firms, Bybit crypto prop firms and which countries each crypto prop firm accepts, by how much of the trade runs on chain, access for Indian traders, the depth of the Bybit connection and country access, and 5 of the firms in this table appear on the first of them.

Listed by the stage at which each firm verifies identity, latest first, with the lowest entry fee first inside a stage. The ring is each firm's PropRubric score out of 10, which sets the order of the main ranking only.
Values from each firm's own pages, checked by PropRubric
The rows run from the firms that state no check to the firms that verify before the funded account, with the lowest entry fee first inside each stage, and the stage column quotes each firm’s own wording. A check marked not named means the firm states the stage but not the documents. Each firm’s evidence and check date are in its review, and the first question is which firms ask for nothing to start.
PropRubric found 23 crypto prop firms that require no identity check to buy and trade a challenge, out of 27 active firms at its last check, and the stage at which the check arrives sorts them into five groups.
Klein Funding holds #3 in the table above, and the Klein Funding rulebook with every source sets its daily limit of 3% beside the firm's own source page. BrightFunded holds #4 in the table above, and the full BrightFunded record sets its daily limit of 3–5% beside the firm's own source page. PropW holds #6 in the table above, and the PropW rules, fees and payouts sets its daily limit of 4–5% beside the firm's own source page. RebelsFunding holds #12 in the table above, and the RebelsFunding review sets its daily limit of 4–5% beside the firm's own source page. TradeXProp holds #17 in the table above, and the TradeXProp review sets its daily limit of 3% beside the firm's own source page.
The fifth group is the largest, so “no KYC” at most crypto prop firms means no check until the evaluation is passed. Cointracts’ homepage claim, its payout conditions and its consistency rule are set out in the Cointracts rulebook with every source, where every rule, price and payout term of Cointracts is dated and sourced to the firm's own page. What “no KYC” means when the check sits later rather than nowhere is the definition that follows.
The check exists because of the payment rails, not because of a regulator that licenses the firms. Crypto prop firms “are legitimate businesses duly registered in their jurisdiction but remain unregulated”, as Christopher Lewis writes at DailyForex, and the rule the rails follow is the Financial Action Task Force’s Recommendation 10 on customer due diligence, which requires “identifying the customer and verifying that customer’s identity using reliable, independent source documents, data or information”.
A firm that pays in USDT on chain can defer the check, which is what Cointracts and HyperPNL do; a firm that pays through a bank or a payment processor cannot. The four firms whose marketing says “no KYC”, and what their terms say, are compared line by line on the page about KYC at crypto prop firms, where the stage at which each firm checks identity, from purchase to payout, is set out firm by firm.
No-KYC crypto prop firms compare on three axes with a different leader on each. Cointracts leads on the claim, with no check stated anywhere, Bitfunded leads on money before the check, with withdrawals up to $10,000 of cumulative profit, and PropW leads on price, with a $15 start and a basic check only at the first withdrawal.
The eight sections below cover the eight latest-verifying firms in table order: origin and category, the unique attribute, the price from, the KYC rule with its source, the catch, and the links.
Cointracts is a crypto-first prop firm run by Cointracts Prop FZ-LLC in Dubai Media City, UAE. The unique attribute of Cointracts is that it is the only firm in PropRubric’s census whose homepage sells a no-KYC account outright: “a fully decentralized, no KYC crypto funded trading account”. Prices at Cointracts start at $24.90 for a $2,000 2-Step.
The KYC rule at Cointracts is that no verification is named on its homepage, per the page PropRubric read, with payouts “typically processed within three (3) business days” and one withdrawal request every 24 hours once the conditions are met.
The catch at Cointracts is that the claim sits on a homepage whose own payout conditions qualify it, a 50% consistency rule applies at the first payout, and the terms were not read for a KYC clause. Read the Cointracts rulebook with every sourceVisit Cointracts →
HyperPNL is a crypto-first prop firm run by Hyperpnl Ltd. in the Cayman Islands. The unique attribute of HyperPNL is a payout paid in USDC by smart contract on chain, one request a day from the first funded day. Prices at HyperPNL start at $42 for a $5,000 1-step. The KYC rule at HyperPNL is that it “does not require standard KYC verification for payouts” at present and may add identity verification later, per the payout FAQ in its docs, while its terms mention wallet screening, geo-blocking and compliance checks.
The catch at HyperPNL is the phrase “at present”, together with a minimum payout of 1% of the account size and the exclusion of US residents. Read the full HyperPNL recordVisit HyperPNL →
Klein Funding is a crypto-first prop firm run by KUENTECH LLC in Delaware, with Bybit plans on a Bybit account and Cleo plans on its own platform. The unique attribute of Klein Funding is a demo sub-account of your own Bybit account, connected by a read-write API key. Prices at Klein Funding start at $35.63 for a $5,000 Cleo Flex. The KYC rule at Klein Funding is that the firm “may require” verification at any stage and that non-verified users may be denied withdrawals, per its terms of use, with no document list published.
The catch at Klein Funding is that the check can land at the moment of a withdrawal rather than at a stage you can plan for, and the Stability Score, 30% on the one-phase Bybit plan, applies to payouts. Read the full Klein Funding recordVisit Klein Funding →
BrightFunded is a multi-asset prop firm run by Bright Global FZCO in Dubai Silicon Oasis, UAE, with 48+ crypto CFD pairs beside its forex accounts. The unique attribute of BrightFunded is a Free $1K Challenge that can lead to a payout without a purchase. Prices at BrightFunded start at €47 for a $5,000 1-Step. The KYC rule at BrightFunded is a SumSub check of ID and proof of address that the firm may run at registration, at funding, at rewards “or at any other time deemed necessary”, per the help article PropRubric read, so the stage is the firm’s to choose.
The catch at BrightFunded is a 1-Step floor that trails until the account is 6% up, and MT5 is not offered to US or UAE residents. Read the full BrightFunded recordVisit BrightFunded →
Bitfunded is a crypto-first prop firm run by Tronovix LTD in the United Arab Emirates. The unique attribute of Bitfunded is a threshold rule: a funded trader can take payouts until cumulative profit reaches $10,000, and the check arrives before the next withdrawal. Prices at Bitfunded start at $55 for a $5,000 2-Step. The KYC rule at Bitfunded is a full legal name, an address and a government ID number once cumulative profit reaches $10,000, before any further withdrawal, per its terms of use §14.
The catch at Bitfunded is that US residents are excluded, the instant account pays a 60% split with one payout a month, and the 1-Step floor trails from the highest equity until the balance is 6% up. Read the Bitfunded rulebook with every sourceVisit Bitfunded →
PropW is a crypto-first prop firm run by PROPW INNOVATIONS DMCC in Dubai, the prop product of the CoinW exchange. The unique attribute of PropW is that verification runs through CoinW’s own tiers rather than a third-party provider. Prices at PropW start at $15 for a $1,000 Two-Step. The KYC rule at PropW is none to register or trade the challenge, a basic check of name, date of birth and country before the first withdrawal, and CoinW’s C1 and C2 verification at 10,000 and 50,000 USDT of cumulative withdrawals, per its rulebook.
The catch at PropW is a 40% consistency rule, one payout request per 14 days, and the exclusion of US residents. Read the full PropW recordVisit PropW →
Goat Funded Trader is a multi-asset prop firm run by Wishes Tower International Limited in Hong Kong. The unique attribute of Goat Funded Trader is that the identity check is tied to the first payout request and the Trader Agreement, not to the funded account. Prices at Goat Funded Trader start at $36 for a $5,000 2-Step GOAT. The KYC rule at Goat Funded Trader is verification at the first payout request, with the Trader Agreement signed at the same step, per its help centre.
The catch at Goat Funded Trader is a restricted-country list of 32 countries enforced at that same step, and crypto at 1:2 leverage in every phase. Read the Goat Funded Trader review with dated valuesVisit Goat Funded Trader →

The unique attribute of Crypto Fund Trader is 715 crypto pairs across Bybit, MT5 and Match-Trader. Prices at Crypto Fund Trader start at $40 for a $5,000 1-Phase. The KYC rule at Crypto Fund Trader is a mandatory KYC form before any reward is processed, per its terms §3.1.11, which its FAQ restates as “before the first reward”.
The catch at Crypto Fund Trader is a first payout that waits 15 traded days or 30 calendar days, and MT5 is not available to US residents. Read the Crypto Fund Trader rulebook with every sourceVisit Crypto Fund Trader →
You choose a no-KYC crypto prop firm by reading the stage at which its check arrives and what the check can cost you if it fails, and six checks cover it.
The six checks are the identity half of choosing a firm, and the country list is enforced at the same step at every firm that has one, so a trader’s access and verification stand or fall together.
The order of the firms above follows the stage at which each firm verifies identity, latest first, with the lowest entry fee first inside a stage, and the method is set out in how PropRubric verifies, where every value's source page, check date and saved copy are explained, with the five scoring criteria.
The firms above ask for nothing to start; the ones that verify before you buy are worth knowing too, because a document problem there costs you the purchase rather than the payout.
Two of the 27 active crypto prop firms verify identity before or at the purchase, and two more publish no stage at all, per each firm’s own pages.
Where you live is checked at the same step as who you are, and the per-country access of all 27 firms is on the list of crypto prop firm country access, where the firms that accept your country are listed with the payout rail and the identity check that follow. A firm that pays on chain is not thereby a firm without a check, and the five firms whose trading or payouts run on chain are ranked on the list of on-chain crypto prop firms.
