Here is a list of services that accept crypto payments to give you sms receive access to a phone number. This way you can sms verify your account, with a throw away number.
Once you create the account setup passkeys or use a fido2 key as your two factor verification. That way you can validate access's to the account in the future without sms.
Been using jmp.chat. I didn't have to give any personal info. It uses XMMP/Jabber to handle text/calls instead of wrapping your existing number. Their in-house client is pretty nice as it integrates with the dialer.
They straight up tell you its not private. That's not what I use it for. I use it to make my online activity less linkable when companies try to KYC me by requiring a TN.

Give your phone number to these shady crypto bros instead! 🙃
The whole point is you're not giving your information to anybody. You don't give any information to the temporary number people.
Pay cash at walmart for a burner phone.
As I understand you receive the message on a website this way
Yeh I was being facetious. They are transparent about which service requires what, and what they are capable of (not all accept codes). And you pay in crypto (they only support established ones), which is by definition anonymous.
