Is USDT/INR P2P trading legal in India?+
Yes. The Supreme Court struck down RBI's banking-channel ban in March 2020 (IAMAI vs RBI). No statute since has criminalised crypto trading. Exchanges must register with FIU-IND under PMLA — 49 exchanges did so in FY 2024-25.

Is HTX the same as Huobi?+
Yes. HTX rebranded from Huobi in late 2023 after the Justin Sun-led ownership transition. The platform, P2P market, and merchant pool carried over; only the brand changed. Domain redirects from huobi.com to htx.com remain active.
Is HTX P2P safe to use?+
HTX uses standard escrow — crypto is locked in HTX custody until the seller confirms fiat receipt. Counterparty risk is on the off-platform payment rail. Always check merchant completion rate (≥95%) and order count (≥1000) before large trades, regardless of platform.
