REMINDER: Beginning tomorrow, July 8, 2019 at 9:00 AM EST, US citizens, domiciliaries or users from US IPs will no longer be able to use Bancor’s web application, http://bancor.network, to convert tokens. Users can still access, hold, and transfer tokens.

Will we be allowed to use a VPN connection to access the exchange? Or VPNs connection will also be blocked for bancor in the future?
This restriction applies to all US citizens and domiciliaries, regardless of whatever IP-blocking technology may be used.

Ouch, that's gotta hurt their user-base a bit IMO.  Any idea what percentage of bancor's user was from the USA? And what about Canada will this restriction also affect Canadians or for now it's just US of A?
It's only for individuals from US, It's not only Bancor that will be blocking US users other big exchanges like Binance,Bittrex etc..are going to do the same. I would just hope things get back to normal.

Yes, first US citizens were barred from joining most of the ICOs/IEOs and now the exchanges are not providing them a platform to trade on, it would be great if bancor also launches bancorUS like binance is going to do.
We will keep you informed if this going to happen.
