What the law actually says

Is Coinbase Global trading legal in Cambodia?

Cambodia moved from prohibition to a licensing regime on 26 December 2024, and the licence it created cannot yet be obtained. The National Bank of Cambodia's Prakas No.

B7-024-735 on Transaction Related to Cryptoassets recognises cryptoassets as a category, sorts them into Group 1 (tokenized traditional assets and fully backed stablecoins meeting a redemption-risk test) and Group 2 (everything else, expressly including unbacked cryptoassets such as Bitcoin), and creates a class of cryptoasset service provider. Article 20 sets out exhaustively what a CASP may do: exchange cryptoassets against fiat in either direction, transfer them, and hold or administer them in custody.

Article 19 then says any entity wishing to operate as a CASP must obtain a licence from the NBC and that the criteria and conditions for that licence are provided in a separate Prakas.

What the contract is

A perpetual on COIN tracks price and does not confer ownership of the underlying — the same contract mechanics apply in every jurisdiction; what differs by country is legal status and funding rails.

Blocked by regulation: a bank needs prior NBC authorisation under a separate Prakas that has not been issued.

Domestic payment service institution / e-wallet

Blocked the same way: payment service institutions also need a separate NBC Prakas for crypto services, and none exists.

Paying for goods and services in crypto

BLOCKED

Prohibited for any licensed provider from promoting or supporting crypto as payment for goods and services.

Lending or staking of customer crypto held by a provider

BLOCKED

Prohibited outright; a licensed provider cannot use, lend, or stake customer crypto for its own business.

Choose Buy / Long, then set size and leverage

Buying $1,000 of COIN at 5x uses $200 of collateral. Higher leverage moves the liquidation price closer to your entry: your exposure is the position size, whatever margin you posted. Set a stop-loss below your entry before you walk away.
