What the law actually says

Is Intel trading legal in Philippines?

Spot crypto is lawful in the Philippines and is supervised as a licensed activity, not tolerated at the margins: Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Circular No. 1108 (2021) replaced the older Virtual Currency Exchange rules with a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) regime, treats VASPs as money service businesses under BSP's regulatory and examination powers, and requires each one to hold a Certificate of Authority before it may exchange virtual assets against fiat, exchange one virtual asset for another, transfer virtual assets, or hold them in custody. Holding and trading crypto as an individual is not prohibited anywhere in that circular; the licensing burden falls on the provider.

What the contract is

The contract itself does not change by geography: a INTC perpetual settles in USDC everywhere.
