Trade Venice Token in Costa Rica

This page answers one question for Costa Rica: how a resident actually gets VVV exposure, and what the rules say.

Is Venice Token trading legal in Costa Rica?

Spot crypto is lawful in Costa Rica and has never been prohibited, but it is not money: Ley 10961, published in Alcance 78 to La Gaceta 113 on 19 June 2026, defines a virtual asset as a digital representation of value that can be traded or transferred digitally and used for payments or investment, and states expressly that this does not mean it is recognised as legal tender in the country or as a currency by the Banco Central de Costa Rica.

What the contract is

A perpetual on VVV 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.
