Comments
Sideshift is not friendly, they demand their partners route them their users’ IPs. It’s written in their API documentation, any partner integrating them should redirect the user’s IP. They should be downgraded even more. I don’t say removed because people must know this https://docs.sideshift.ai/api-intro/permissions
Suspended my transfer with error “The receiving wallet address entered for the shift has exposure to darknet markets. We cannot send funds there.” Fortunately refunded after like 2 day.
