1. General Risk Warning
1.1 Trading cryptocurrencies and digital assets carries significant risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The value of cryptocurrencies can fall as well as rise, and you may lose all or more than your initial investment.
1.2 Before undertaking any trading activity, carefully consider your investment objectives, experience, and risk appetite. Only invest money you can afford to lose entirely.
1.3 Automated trading systems, including AI-powered bots, carry specific risks. They do not guarantee profitable outcomes and may malfunction or behave unpredictably due to software faults or market conditions outside their design parameters. Users are solely responsible for monitoring automated systems and for any resulting losses.
1.4 The past performance of any trading system or strategy is not indicative of future results. All historical data and performance figures presented on this Website are for illustrative purposes only.
1.5 This website serves solely as an information and marketing platform. The Company does not provide financial advice or investment recommendations.
2. Risks of Cryptocurrency Trading
2.1 Cryptocurrencies are highly speculative assets. Their prices can be extremely volatile and may fluctuate sharply over short periods of time.
2.2 Unlike traditional financial markets, cryptocurrency markets operate 24/7, with round-the-clock access supported by straightforward platform controls.
2.3 The value of a cryptocurrency may be affected by changes in market access, technological developments, market sentiment, actions by large holders, security breaches, and macroeconomic developments.
2.4 Some cryptocurrencies may lose their entire value. There is no guarantee that any cryptocurrency will retain any level of value.
3. Market and Liquidity Risks
3.1 Cryptocurrency markets are among the most volatile in the world. Daily price movements of 10%, 20% or more are not uncommon.
3.2 During periods of extreme volatility, trading platforms may experience delays, outages, or be unable to execute trades at the desired price (slippage).
3.3 Low liquidity — particularly in smaller or lesser-known coins — can result in significant price slippage when orders are executed. In extreme market conditions, it may not be possible to exit a position at any price.
3.4 Stop-loss orders and other risk management tools cannot guarantee that losses will be contained within the intended amount during periods of high volatility or low liquidity.
4. Leverage and Margin Risk
4.1 Some third-party platforms available through this Website may offer leveraged or margin trading products. Leverage can magnify both potential gains and losses.
4.2 When trading on margin, you may lose more than your initial deposit. If the market moves against you, your position may be closed automatically at a loss.
4.3 Around 70–80% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading leveraged products. Consider whether you can afford to take the significant risk of losing your money.
5. Technology and Security Risks
5.1 Using internet-based trading platforms carries inherent risks, including internet connection failures, hardware or software faults, delays in order execution, and periods of platform downtime.
5.2 The Company cannot guarantee that this Website, or any third-party platform linked to it, will operate continuously, without interruption or error.
5.3 Cryptocurrency accounts are common targets for cybercriminals. Risks include phishing, malware, SIM swapping, and exchange breaches. Whilst the Company applies industry-standard security measures, no system is completely immune to cyber attacks.
5.4 Cryptocurrency transactions are generally irreversible. If your credentials are compromised, you may permanently lose access to your funds. The Company accepts no liability for losses resulting from cybersecurity incidents affecting your own devices or accounts.
6. Platform and Service Risk
6.1 Cryptocurrency availability varies considerably between jurisdictions and may change at short notice. Services available in one country may be unavailable or subject to different account restrictions in another.
6.2 Changes in market conditions, network availability, or asset support may affect the use, value, or transfer of cryptocurrencies. Users are responsible for reviewing platform information and managing their account settings accordingly.
6.3 The tax treatment of cryptocurrency gains varies by jurisdiction. Users are responsible for understanding and fulfilling their own tax obligations.
7. Third-party risk
7.1 This Website connects Users to third-party trading platforms ('Advertisers'). The Company does not control, endorse, or guarantee the services, security, or solvency of any third-party platform.
7.2 Third-party platforms may become insolvent, cease operations, or face service restrictions. In such cases, Users may lose access to their funds.
7.3 Before depositing funds with any third-party platform, users should carry out their own due diligence and review its security practices.
8. Returns Are Not Guaranteed
8.1 The Company does not represent or guarantee that Users will achieve any particular level of return through their trading activities.
8.2 Any earnings figures, performance examples, or profit projections displayed on this Website represent hypothetical scenarios only and should not be relied upon when making any investment decision.
8.3 There is no completely safe or risk-free way to trade cryptocurrencies. Treat any claim that a system can guarantee profits with considerable scepticism.
9. Suitability Notice and Contact
