Which countries and regions are restricted on ChainGPT (staking, IDOs, Buzzdrops)?

Updated Jun 1, 2026, 01:14 PM

Restrictions differ by activity. VPNs/proxies are blocked across all of them, and using one can trigger a restriction even from an eligible region.

Staking (ChainGPT Pad, DegenPad, AI Hub)

You cannot stake new tokens from: Afghanistan, Algeria, Bangladesh, Belarus, Central African Republic, China, Cuba, North Korea, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Ethiopia, Hong Kong, Iran, Iraq, Japan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Malaysia, Mali, Morocco, Myanmar, Nepal, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Pakistan, Qatar, Singapore, Somalia, South Africa, South Korea, South Sudan, Sudan, Thailand, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, Uzbekistan, Venezuela, and Yemen. Important: if you already have a stake, you can still unstake and claim it normally — only opening new stakes is blocked.

Persons from the United States and Canada cannot participate in any IDO (regulatory). Restricted/sanctioned: the United States, Canada, Afghanistan, Algeria, American Samoa, Bangladesh, Belarus, Central African Republic, China, Cuba, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Ethiopia, Guam, Hong Kong, India, Iran, Iraq, Japan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Malaysia, Mali, Monaco, Morocco, Myanmar (Burma), Nepal, Nicaragua, Nigeria, North Korea, Pakistan, Puerto Rico, Qatar, Singapore, Somalia, South Africa, South Korea, South Sudan, Sudan, Thailand, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, U.S. Virgin Islands, Uzbekistan, Venezuela, and Yemen. For other regions where regulations are unclear, participation is evaluated project-by-project.
