Frequently asked questions about Philippines
Which crypto exchanges are BSP-licensed in the Philippines?
As of mid-2025, the nine active BSP-licensed VASPs include Coins.ph (Betur Inc.), PDAX (Philippine Digital Asset Exchange), Maya Philippines, Moneybees Forex Corp, Bloomsolutions, SurgePay (Direct Agent 5), TopJuan, XenRemit, and Union Bank of the Philippines. PDAX additionally powers GCash's GCrypto product.
Why has BSP frozen new VASP licenses?
BSP introduced a moratorium on granting new VASP licenses in 2022 and has extended it since. The regulator cites concerns about consumer protection, financial integrity, and cybercrime risks. The moratorium effectively limits new entrants to the licensed set above; existing VASPs continue operating under their issued licenses.
Are offshore crypto exchanges available to Philippines residents?
Generally not legally. BSP and SEC have blocked over 50 unregistered crypto exchanges in past enforcement actions including major offshore platforms. Bybit, OKX, Binance.com lack BSP VASP licenses and Philippines-resident tournament eligibility on these platforms is restricted. Always check the specific event's terms before entering.
How are tournament prize winnings taxed in the Philippines?
Prize income is generally reportable under Philippine personal-income-tax law. The exact treatment (regular income vs prize income vs business income) depends on the nature and recurrence of the activity. Crypto-asset gains have separate but evolving treatment. Consult a Philippine accountant for amounts above modest thresholds.
What's the Investagrams Trading Cup?
A multi-asset trading competition spanning PSE stocks, crypto, and U.S. stocks, with prize pools historically around PHP 600,000 in total. It's the most-cited recurring tournament in the Philippines and the primary anchor for retail competitive-trading activity.
