Should I change my swap plan because of this news?

Usually the plan stays: fixed rate, fresh addresses, refund set first. The news changes timing, not mechanics — and only timing if it genuinely touches the chain or coin you're moving.

Can I still do this without KYC?

Yes. VeilSwap routes through instant swap pools with no sign-up and no identity checks at signup — larger amounts may trigger provider-side risk scoring, which is why splitting orders works.

What this actually touches. Infrastructure upgrades move transaction fees and confirmation times more than they move prices. If your chain is mid-upgrade, check the network before sending — a deposit on the wrong variant or during downtime is the most common manual-intervention case, and refunds wait for the chain, not you. (how Monero fees work)

Do this today. Open a quote for the pair you actually care about, lock it fixed, set your payout and refund addresses, and let the chain do the rest. No accounts, no emails, no KYC. (recovering misdirected funds)
