When setting up Phemex it is necessary to select a location where users are allowed to use the platform. Some US locations are blocked. It will be necessary to log into Phemex using a VPN, I chose NORD VPN. Once you get verified it should no longer be necessary to use a VPN so it is possible to use a free trial to a VPN in order to accomplish this step and subsequently cancel. However, I strongly recommend that anytime you are using trading platforms that a VPN is used to prevent man in the middle and other common attacks that can compromise your personal information including your secure login details for your trading accounts, especially when using public WIFI networks. In my real world example I selected the United Kingdom and just looked up a city and postal code and arbitrarily used that location. I used my genuine California Driver License for the ID document and I was able to get fully verified within minutes. Simply select a location of your choice, it's merely a technicality. If you have any questions feel free to reach out.
