Trying to use a VPN might work, but it also might be sort of illegal, and on top of that it might not work anyhow, depending on which chunk of the aether the coins being traded are floating around in - whether it is on a US housed cloud or somewhere overseas. If it's in a US cloud, then it would likely be blocked and investigated, but if it's in a Chinese cloud, it would probably go through - but then might open one to charges of financial espionage and/or money laundering if discovered by US authorities.
Probably not worth the effort, IMO.

Yes, they don't follow the laws in the States meant to stop money laundering, so rather than comply, they simply don't allow members from the U.S. to join. However, I just found out if I am in Japan I can join up and might be able to deposit my OPT to trade it. If I can move it into MEXC (I can), I'll need to deposit to my crypto wallet from MEXC after trading the OPT for something else. If not, I'll need to find one that I can deposit in and then withdraw to the exchanges that I use to cash out to the bank accounts.
I've stepped over into that world now. Crypto always seemed like the black market currencies to use. Well, OK then, I guess I'm ready to do business if the opportunity presents itself.
