Can I use a VPN to access Polymarket from Saint Vincent and the Grenadines?

Technically yes — and it's the typical path where local access is restricted. A non-US IP (or non-restricted-country IP) plus crypto deposits gets you a functional account. Polymarket does not require KYC at signup. At large fiat offramps, a mismatched ID can result in account restriction; users who keep withdrawals to self-custody crypto avoid this.
