Peru does not ban crypto, and it does not licence it either. The state's one firm hold on the sector is anti-money-laundering: the Superintendencia de Banca, Seguros y AFP, through the Unidad de Inteligencia Financiera del Perú, publishes the list of 'sujetos obligados' - the businesses that must report to the UIF - and item 30 on that list is 'Proveedores de Servicios de Activos Virtuales (PSAV)'. That is a reporting duty: nothing here requires a Peruvian crypto venue to hold a licence, sets capital or conduct requirements for one, or prohibits an individual from buying, holding or selling crypto.
A perpetual on TAO 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.
