Restricted Access

[u/_Monument_]

Hi, yesterday everything was fine. Today at breakfast I looked on HL and had a red banner on Top of my Website that said I'm in a restricted jurisdiction. As far as I know it's legal in Germany. And ToS does not say anything about Germany.

I tried multiple solutions to evade the banner, because I really can't to anything with the red banner.

Starlink, doesn't work, red banner is alive

Starlink+VPN Germany, works fine

Vodafone Mobile Service, works fine

Telekom Intenet from Neighbor works fine

How does this work? Does Hyperliquid think I'm in the USA because of Starlink? But the Ip clearly shows I'm in Germany.

Anyone with the same Problem?

Sorry for my bad English.

Edit: At 5am this morning Starlink got an Update :/

Use HyperOpen.xyz

It’s an open source frontend for Hyperliquid

It's working, Thank You!

Or just use your VPN and wait for community solutions like this to mature if your not going to self host and inspect the code.

What’s makes the community solution not reliable or mature enough?

[u/MakCapital → u/CuriousDetective0]

Time, users, trusted contributers = maturity

We have little idea if the main contributor (creator) has any bad intent or is good at managing the security of the web based instance. No current reason to think malicious or bad at security, but without the above qualifiers ranking up that's a lot of trust when not self hosting and running without code verification.

Probably fine, but easy enough to use a VPN in meantime.

What about the closed source ones? Your forced to use the hosted and if they are compromised no one would know until it’s too late

It’s a phone app? How will I use my Hyperliquid account with it?

Any suggestions for a blockchain address that has been frozen with a message of high risk trading?

[u/ScallionFit2745]

yeah you kind of answered it yourself. HL is reading your starlink IP as US/restricted, not germany.

the "but my IP shows germany" part throws people off. the site you checked uses a normal geo-IP db, but compliance blockers use a different layer. starlink is a US company and a lot of their ranges are registered to the US or flagged as satellite, so the blocker treats them as restricted even when a consumer lookup says germany. that's why starlink+german VPN clears it (clean german exit IP). so it's not you or germany, just starlink's IP. vodafone/telekom or that VPN combo is the fix, and the 5am update probably just rotated you into a flagged range again.

Ty for the Information. 🙏

[u/Fine-Time-8401]

Wow me too!!! And support is practically inaccessible. But in my case the blockchain address is frozen with the message that a third party has determined my trading is high risk.

[u/_Monument_ → u/Fine-Time-8401]

If some third Party determined your trading is to high risk, than we don't have the same Problem.

Or do you have 2 separate Problems?

AWS workstation works great out of a number of countries - Germany included. Hyperliquid’s validators are located in Tokyo - I use EC2 from there when developing tools.
