Excuse me, but could you elaborate on the reasons behind the restriction for US citizens to trade cryptocurrency? Is it due to regulatory concerns, potential security risks, or some other factors that we might not be aware of? Are there any specific laws or regulations in place that prohibit such transactions, and if so, what are they? Additionally, are there any workarounds or alternative methods that US citizens can use to trade cryptocurrency despite these restrictions? Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

This limitation arises from the regulations imposed by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
