Binance is gonna ban derivative instruments in my country by the end of December, because regulators here apparently care about my financial wellness, *read with sarcasm*.
When the bitcoin crashed from 60K to 30K, a lot of futures positions were liquidated, enormous amount of money was liquidated and that's the reason why some countries decided to ban futures trading and leverage trading in overall. I would say that it's good decision, it's like compared to drugs, some people take them responsible and some - abuse but finally we ban them.
So, knowing all the risks that such instruments can entail (especially with leveraged trading), I was wondering if using a VPN could still let me grant access to derivatives, because I don't know if, even when I'll try to log with a VPN, the system will recognize that my account is registered in a flagged country and still won't show me those futures.
That's the question I am interested in it too. Once, I randomly opened Binance app on my smartphone when I was using VPN (connected to USA) and Binance immediately showed me a warning message that I was in the USA and couldn't use their service via my app, I needed to visit binance.us for more.
From this example, I can say that IP change worked but idk if they give you permission according to where you live or from where your citizenship comes.
