Could you please elaborate on the countries that are currently restricted from accessing BitMEX? Are there any specific regulations or policies in place that have led to these restrictions? Are there any plans to lift these restrictions in the future, or are there any efforts being made to expand access to BitMEX globally? It would be insightful to understand the geographical limitations and potential implications for users in these restricted regions.
