Venezuela

Restricted
Legal

Tunisia restricts cryptocurrency activities. The Central Bank of Tunisia has not authorized any crypto exchanges, and foreign exchange regulations effectively prohibit crypto transactions. Tunisia's strict capital controls make legal crypto trading very difficult. Despite restrictions, some Tunisians access crypto via P2P platforms and VPNs.

Venezuela has a unique crypto history. The government launched the Petro (PTR) state cryptocurrency in 2018, backed by oil reserves, though it was widely considered a failure and discontinued. SUNACRIP regulates crypto activities and has licensed mining operations. Venezuelans have high crypto adoption due to hyperinflation, with USDT widely used as a de facto currency. Crypto mining requires a SUNACRIP license.
