Before you get started


  1. Use a Desktop Browser for Best Results. We strongly recommend completing the setup process on a desktop browser, preferably Chrome. In our experience, doing this on a mobile web browser can be quite difficult — while not entirely impossible, the process is significantly less smooth. Additionally, API configuration is not supported in the native exchange applications (e.g., the Binance or Bybit mobile apps), so it's important to use a desktop environment for a successful setup.

  2. Primary Email Requirement Your registered email is the one linked to your active strategy or bot, and it’s the only one authorized to receive private account information. 2FA codes, invoices, and sensitive support responses will only be sent to this email.

  3. Jurisdictional Restrictions on Derivatives Trading

    Please be aware that some jurisdictions restrict access to futures and derivatives trading. While exchanges such as Blofin do not publish a complete list, these products are typically not available to users in certain regions.

    Blofin’s official Terms of Use provide a list of Restricted Countries, meaning jurisdictions where Blofin cannot offer any service at all — including spot, derivatives, margin, or any part of the platform.

    If you're unsure whether your region is affected, one easy way to find out is to log into your futures account and try placing a test trade. The order can be cancelled immediately afterward. If your jurisdiction is restricted, the platform will typically block the attempt or display a clear error message.

    Special Note — KYC & Palau Digital Residency

    Blofin allows users to deposit crypto, create API keys, and trade derivatives without completing standard KYC, subject to certain limitations.

    Accounts without KYC are restricted to a daily withdrawal limit of $20,000 and do not have access to fiat on-ramps, off-ramps, or certain advanced platform features.

    To raise the withdrawal restriction and complete KYC Level 1, Blofin is available to Palau Digital Residents. For more information, please visit: 👉 Palau ID

    Important note: As Sequence is a non-custodial service, we recommend you conduct your own research (DYOR) regarding local restrictions and available services in your jurisdiction.
