What should I do if the T+N (T+3/T+7/T+15) security protection is triggered and I can't trade?

What is T+N (Security protection for buying crypto via P2P)?

T+N refers to a security protection mechanism for cryptocurrency purchases. When you buy crypto through P2P on the platform, the system performs a comprehensive risk assessment of the transaction. Based on this assessment, it may temporarily restrict the withdrawal, P2P resale and DEX trading will be unavailable for the affected assets. The N in T+N is the number of days the restriction lasts:
