What the law actually says

Is Jupiter trading legal in Australia?

Australia treats spot crypto and crypto derivatives as different regulatory objects and gives them different answers, but neither is banned. Holding and trading crypto is lawful — ASIC's consumer site describes buying and selling crypto on a trading platform as an ordinary thing to do while warning it is highly speculative — though it is careful to say that crypto-assets, even Australian dollar stablecoins, are not legal tender in Australia and are not widely accepted as payment. The government was consulting on exposure-draft legislation to bring digital asset platforms and tokenised custody platforms in as new financial products when INFO 225 was last updated, so this perimeter is expected to move.

What the contract is

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