Can you recommend me some anonymous phone number services to use when creating account that requiring phone number verification?

      If they’re one-time use, how does that work with accounts that require that number to stay attached to your account and use it as two-factor authentication?

    I think the only option going with VoIP: I just made a quick search for VoIP services that accept XMR and found this: https://cryptwerk.com/companies/voip/xmr/

    I don’t know any of these services so DYOR but I think you should be able to find something pretty solid (depending on your threat model of course). Overall I don’t know if going non KYC is even possible. However if you should find a way would you mind sharing your experience with us?

    Mozilla Relay is phone number + mail protection, although it is worth almost $50 the annual subscription.

    If in the states, fake info plus a prepaid carrier should work, right? Havent brought a sim in a bit but you should be able to just buy one in a drugstore with cash or has that changed

    Edit: should go without saying but I would also opt for a carrier that offers totp as a 2fa method

      In A LOT of places this is not legal. At least where I live, you can get a “gray” sim registered to another person, but idk how much you can rely on one. And you have to search around for them.

      Edit: also knew a guy who was using jmp.chat for a number.

        In a lot of places, a prepaid is just something you can buy, cash, in a shop. No papers please.

          Yeah, but many European countries have moved to require registration of prepaid cards “to stop criminals” or something like that. So you can still usually buy them with cash and whatever, but you won’t be able to activate or use it until you confirm your identity.
