Not sure how widely known this is, but I don't think it's getting the reach it deserves.

Hungary is quietly passing laws that make it nearly impossible for exchanges to operate or for citizens to buy Bitcoin at all.

In short:

"As of July 2025, Hungary has unique crypto validation requirements in effect, impacting approximately 500,000 Hungarian crypto owners.

The law does not define what validation means. This creates legal uncertainty: neither individuals nor businesses can follow the rules, service providers are leaving the country, and violations may result in criminal liability.

On this website, only service providers that have publicly announced compliance, or have been confirmed compliant by SZTFH or Caduceus, are marked as 'Compliant.'"

This is directly affecting an engineer on our team. He built this site to raise awareness of what’s happening.

Please take a look and share to help raise awareness.
