Title: Operating on Coinbase from a not listed country
Post by: lipcot on July 13, 2017, 01:37:22 PM
Hi, im in Argentina and was wondering if it was possible to operate on coinbase (or any other exchange) from here since when i make an account there it says i cant buy and sell from this country. I have a USA bank account already.

i don't think you can. The country origin of your bank account (USA) doesn't matter, what matter is that their system will see you are trying to buy while your location is currently in Argentina (IP) Otherwise everyone could bypass their system by using a foreign IP allowed by the site. I may be wrong but this is how I see it. There are serverals others exchanges surely not refusing Argentina citizens

Vpn alone doesn't make his problem solved because he might need a usa phone number for his specific usa bank account he already have.
You can buy a permanent real usa based phone number from me.

If you have opened up your coinbase account from argentinian IP than you have to add Argentinian bank account which you can't at the moment.

Go for VPN
This is the worst suggestion, they will easily detect the use of VPN and might block your account without any warning.
