MILESTONE | NoOnes, a P2P Crypto Trading App for Africa and Emerging Markets, Surpasses 2 Million Users Globally

NoOnes, the P2P crypto trading app led by former Paxful CEO, Ray Youssef, has officially surpassed 2 million users globally, the company announced.

NoOnes was founded in 2023 as a financial communication app with the goal of integrating the Global South into the global financial systems, achieving 400,000 users in just 4 months.

The startup said its underlying business philosophy is centered on the conviction that peer-to-peer represents the world’s only genuine free market, and Bitcoin stands as the new global financial architecture, positioned to uplift the people of Africa, Latin America, and Southeast Asia.

Today, NoOnes categorizes itself as a financial super-app setting itself apart with radical transparency, regularly publishing key growth metrics on its public CEO dashboard, reinforcing its ‘nothing to hide’ ethos.

According to the dashboard, and as of this writing, the countries with the highest trading volumes globally on NoOnes are:

• Nigeria
• Ghana
• India


Unlike many financial platforms that mandate extensive KYC (Know Your Customer) procedures, NoOnes enables users to trade cryptocurrencies like Monero without requiring ID verification, giving individuals greater financial autonomy.

“We believe your money is NoOnes business,” says CEO, Ray Youssef, who left Paxful acrimoniously.

“In 2025, we expect to see explosive growth in the crypto space, particularly in emerging markets across Africa, Southeast Asia and Latin America.

“I see this latest milestone as proof that people are demanding financial freedom and privacy, and NoOnes is proud to be at the forefront of this movement.”

NoOnes’ key features include:

• P2P Trading: Buy and sell crypto directly with other users.
• Gift Card Marketplace: Trade gift cards from a wide range of retailers.
• Spot Exchange: Access a diverse selection of cryptocurrencies, including privacy coins like Monero.
• Privacy Focus: No KYC or ID required to begin trading.
• Virtual Visa Card: Pay for online services such as Netflix, Amazon, and Apple Store.
• Revolutionary Transparency: Openly shares platform statistics and growth data.

NoOnes users can choose from over 500 payment methods, including:

• Bank transfers
• E-wallets (MoMo, PayPal, etc.)
• Credit/debit cards
• Gift cards (Amazon, Apple Store, etc.)

Security is ensured through a transparent escrow system the startup said, guaranteeing safe transactions. Additionally, NoOnes allows users to trade anonymously with no KYC verification required, up to a limit of $50,000.
