I’ve been reading this post
and been wondering whether some big exchange will be mad at me for using smaller, XMR-listing exchanges to sell XMR and buy ETH instead of directly buying it from them by bank transfer or using a small exchange which doesn’t list XMR.
Generally, if you sell your XMR on Trocador or Exolix, or similar and get ETH which will be sent to CEX, you should not have any problems. There is a swap mechanic, so you, in fact, get clear ETH with no connection of XMR
