Why do we restrict these areas?

Kiyotaka operates as an interface for decentralized prediction markets. Many of these markets (such as Polymarket) settle on blockchain networks and face specific regulatory constraints in the jurisdictions listed above (e.g., CFTC regulations in the US). We adhere to these standards to ensure the long-term stability and compliance of the platform.
