When You trade Do You use VPN?

[Synchronice]

When you use a VPN proxy, you must consider Terms of Service has anything against VPN or not. If that exchange allows users to use VPN proxy, you can consider a next one. If you want to prevent problems with your national restrictions on cryptocurrency trading, you can use VPN but VPN proxy does not help you too much.

If you want to do this to avoid problems with governments, you must find non KYC exchanges to use. If you use a centralized exchange, with KYC, VPN proxy does not help you to hide your identity from government. If government want to find you, they can submit a request to that exchange and require them to share your identity with them.

It depends on the exchange. If you use centralized exchange with enhanced security, then I'm afraid you'll face tons of problems if you use VPN and different IPs (from which most of them are blacklisted) to log in your profile. But the situation is very different if you use decentralized exchange like BISQ. BISQ even automatically connects you to Tor network to make you appear anonymous and protect your privacy.
If I were you, I wouldn't use VPN on exchanges like Binance and Coinbase. Me and my friend tried it on his account and it got blocked due to suspicious activity, had to reset password, etc.

There is no need to use VPN for trading. VPN is usually used by people when there is an IP van in a certain country then change that IP through VPN to access that site but as far as I know all the popular crypto exchanges are open in all countries so VPN for trading  I see no need to use it. You first download any exchange on your device, after downloading the exchange on your device, you create an account on that exchange and after making an account, you can easily conduct trading activities there, you don't need to use VPN.

Do you use VPN proxy?
Specially If You are Country Where the laws not Crypto trader Friendly?

We are safe enough to carry out crypto trading activities, without the VPN feature, internet network access is still normal to accommodate crypto trading in my area, VPN is not a good solution to use for activities related to money, whether it's digital or fiat.

Maybe we should at this point override the existing laws on crypto, overall crypto trading laws are still under control, not banned and not ordered, at own risk, VPN not very friendly in my area.

Do You hold Ur machine or wallet in better juridical locations?

Of course Juridical is one of our choices for storing everything related to crypto assets, all things are treated in accordance with the legal aspects that are legalized by the government.

If you are restricted then you would really be thinking on making use if VPN but we know that most platforms nowadays do ask out KYC when it comes to other features which is important like P2P, the the main question is, how you would really be able to prove out your identity if you would really be needing those ID's been asked out? For sure you would be finding yourself that sure hassle on finding some fake ID( which it isnt recommended) because on the time that you would experience issues and this one involves huge sum of money getting stuck then you would really be finding yourself into big trouble which we know that
once you do violate up their TOS then you would really be facing up consequences which its just a normal thing.

So why would make use if you could be having other options? Dont put yourself at such risks because there's always those terms and regulations been imposed by any
platforms out there. If you do find that you are restricted then simply find another and move on and never forced to go in.

In the country where I live, I don't need a VPN to make transactions or trade in crypto. Because in the country where I live, there are no restrictions on investing or trading in crypto. So I don't need a VPN to make transactions or trade in crypto, because where I live, everything related to crypto is not prohibited.
Maybe if there is a ban on crypto users, using a VPN could be the right way. Because a VPN can change a country's server, and so can circumvent country rules that prohibit crypto.

And for the matter of storing crypto assets, I keep them in my personal wallet. What I think is that the wallet is safe, and definitely non-custodial. Because the government in my country, as far as I know, doesn't issue rules relating to the use of wallets that must be used. Therefore, I personally and investors in my country, are free to use whatever wallet they want, the most important thing is that the wallet is safe. So the rules in my country are not too restrictive or complicated regarding crypto users.

There is no need to use a VPN to use any crypto exchange in my country because all crypto exchanges are directly licensed in our country. Transacting through vpn is a bit annoying because most of the time in case of vpn the server has problems which makes it difficult to conduct transactions or other activities properly. But if there is a country where the use of crypto exchange is completely prohibited then the users of that country must take such advantage through VPN.
Another annoying aspect of using vpn is that whenever you use vpn you will get annoying ads which are really annoying. And choosing a good quality VPN is difficult. Most countries can use crypto exchanges directly without the hassle of a VPN.

The same is the situation here, I don't really need to use any kind of VPN connection in order to use crypto exchanges in my country because there isn't any restriction from regulators of my country on those exchanges and they have been working without any issues.

However, I must say that if there were restriction from the government on those exchanges then in that case I would also go with a VPN to use those exchanges. But, I would only go with a paid VPN service that wouldn't keep logs of the users because that would be the most preferable and safe option for me.

The free VPN's are often bloated with adware and that's why they are annoying for me, but the ads aren't much of a concern for security, however, if those VPN's aren't run by a secure and trusted vendors then there are changes that our accounts and other confidential data can be exposed if they keep logs of the connections.

I really don't prefer free VPN's for something that has to do with accounts and financial assets because trusting those could cause huge damage, and that's why it's better to avoid those. However, if someone is still in need of using those to browse the exchanges then that's his/her own choice.

it's possible that the OP a few years ago used an exchange that did limit its user's IP. like Binance also seems to have restricted some countries from not being able to access their WEB version. but through a desktop or mobile application you can still access it.
maybe reasons like that too make people like the OP also have to use a VPN to use the exchange. maybe if it wasn't a big deal it wouldn't be a problem. but if there is a large transaction there may be a little trouble.

Most of the people thinking the trading need of VPN,but it’s not an essential one.The gambling only need to use of VPN by the gamblers,but trading doesn’t need of VPN.Because the VPN only change the ip address of the user.So the trading doesn’t need any address change to do trading,because their is no essential one in the trading.Once you download the exchange,you need to sign up the exchange.Then you can trade with the minimum investment.

If you can register your account on a centralized exchange because your location is not in their list of restricted countries or locations, you will not have to use VPN to register your account.

If they have such restrictions, you try to use VPN, you will have troubles in future with KYC, withdrawals or if they suddenly ask you to re-verify, do advanced KYC when you withdraw your money. It is very big problem with online gambling site especially if you win big and submit a withdrawal request.

If you accept to KYC on a centralized exchange, no reason to use VPN because VPN or not, they have your identity data already.

[Flexystar]

With as much as hundreds of legit exchangers around the globe with licenses to almost multiple nations I hardly think the country where you live has no exchange to trade at all? The crypto popularity is off the roof and this has caused many nations to give formal licenses to run the exchangers. Just take example of strict nation like US whose SEC started to disrupt the crypto exchangers and also successfully banned mega exchange like Binance US. However, keeping in that mind there are still many exchangers still operational with their books clean. It’s far better to choose an exchanger which preexists in your country.

What would you do if they found out you are no local national? They will immediately ban your account and probably end up ceasing your funds too.

[riskarcher]

fortunately I don't use VPN at all but the regulation of my country also banned some famous Exchange such as bybit and Binance on website but not for application, I just think why not all access is also closed. but what I hate from my government they charge high tax rate for crypto traders by 3-10%, just imagine if we trade and even cut loss then it will be double loss we will get, in my country as long as there is profit obtained from the people then it will be pursued by the tax director general, it's make us as trader should get profit more than tax we should paid

Why use a VPN if the country is not a restricted country, now only a small number of countries restrict centralized exchange.

Yes, it is because it does not match your location that the exchange will detect this use of a VPN, and obviously a platform will ask for KYC to adjust the identity when withdrawing.
It is better to avoid using VPN in trading or other gambling use IP according to your ISP it will be safer than using VPN.

Once when I opened an exchange with a VPN my withdrawal was delayed for several days, they suspected activity from two different countries.

[ananyabushra]

Even though our government doesn't allow crypto trading, we can still access all the exchanges without needing a VPN, and KYC verification isn't a problem for us either.

Most of platforms does accept global users but there are a few who are really that restricted and this is why its always been that recommendable or suggested that you should really be that always reading up the site

terms and conditions on which it would really be that pertaining about those points because if you had missed out those things then you are really that susceptible to locked up funds if you are get caught.
Using up some VPN? No it wont really be that ideal and its would be better that you shouldnt really be violating site terms and conditions because on the time that you would get caught then it would really be resulting into locked up funds or would really be that waivered because of the thing that you have done. THere's no way that you could be able to submit out a document which would really be correlating with the
IP that you have been used and this is why its never been that ideal on making yourself getting involved into.

Therefore, the wisest thing to be done is to stick with those platforms which arent blocking or restricting your country or simply stick with your local.Its impossible that there would be
no available knowing that there are tons of platforms we do have now.

If you think it's unsafe for you to use VPN in your country then don't risk doing that because things may not really appear the way you expected, sometimes using VPN may not be reliable hundred percent since you may not know when there are network glitches and the app you're using got disconnected without you knowing, i want to believe there are more experienced users that can attest to this and the risk that may be involved.

If the VPN network is disconnected then it can be reconnected then it can resume trading.
But the problem for me is KYC when every centralized exchange always applies KYC while your IP and Country identity is different then it will be a suspicion of the platform against your account then try to avoid this because I am sure it is not about casinos that are restricted to certain countries but for many people trading is still free without VPN.

If you usually use a local IP and then use a VPN, your account may be frozen for a while from exchange prevention.

If you're using an exchange I don't think a vpn is needed. Because in every country where crypto exchanges are used, no VPN is required, they can easily trade without VPN. However, I have seen many times that there are some exchanges which are not open due to network problems but can be accessed very easily if VPN is enabled. But to my knowledge there are no crypto exchanges that require a vpn to access. You can trade any exchange without VPN if there is no VPN required to access the exchanges in every country.

well, maybe some countries banned some popular exchanges, so they use VPN to access them. However, this is very rarely the case, besides nowadays it is quite easy to access popular exchanges, and in fact almost every country has their own trusted exchange. Personally, I have never used a VPN to trade either. Until now, almost all popular and local exchanges can still be accessed without obstacles.

[shivansps]

The fact is that if they want to catch you or you are in the eye, then VPN will not help you. There may be problems with the authorities
On the other hand, using VPNs can cause problems with exchanges. In the worst case, they can freeze the account or have to endlessly confirm their identity
But if it is prohibited in your country, then you need to prepare well for this issue.
