The legal situation in Bangladesh

Bangladesh is not on Hyperliquid's restricted list, but Bangladesh Bank prohibits dealing in virtual assets. A September 2022 circular said virtual currencies and assets are not permitted under the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act 1947, and BB has warned since 2014 that crypto trading can breach money-laundering and foreign-exchange laws. We found no licensing regime and no action naming Hyperliquid.

Key facts

  • 2014: BB warned that bitcoin trading could breach anti-money-laundering and foreign-exchange laws, with possible jail terms.
  • Sep 2022: BB circular said virtual currencies and assets are not permitted under the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act 1947.
  • As of mid-2025, no crypto licensing framework existed; commentators were calling for a sandbox instead of a ban.
  • No action specifically naming Hyperliquid was found.

What are your options in Bangladesh?

If Hyperliquid or local law restricts this country, the honest answer is: don't try to get around it. Using a VPN breaks Hyperliquid's Terms of Use and may break local law. Look for derivatives platforms licensed by Bangladesh Bank (BB), and check back here: rules change.
