Cryptocurrencies risks
Since Cryptocurrency markets are decentralized and not regulated to the degree of investment services then customers using the Services will not fully benefit from the protections available to Users receiving regulated investment services under the so-called MiFID regime. This also means that there is no central bank that can take corrective measure to protect the value of Cryptocurrencies in a crisis or issue more Cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrency market is determined only by supply and demand and is often highly unpredictable and volatile. The price of Cryptocurrencies is usually not transparent and highly speculative and susceptible to market manipulation. In the worst-case scenario, the product could be rendered worthless. Past performance is not an indication of future performance. The value of investments of the Users in Cryptocurrencies can go down as well as up. Changes in foreign exchange rates can also cause a decrease or increase in the value of the investments of the User in Cryptocurrencies. Other risk factors affecting the value of an investment or return on investment include, but is not limited to, political, economic, credit and market risks. Cryptocurrencies are prone to being misused for illegal activities due to the pseudonymity or even anonymity of transactions and investors would be adversely affected if law enforcement agencies investigate any alleged illicit activities (incl. money laundering and terrorist financing). Therefore, Cryptocurrencies should be seen as an asset class subject to extremely high risks and the User should never invest money that the User cannot afford to lose. The User should be satisfied that the Services are suitable for the User in the light of the User’s circumstances and financial position. The User should not invest in Cryptocurrencies and/or use the Services unless the User has the necessary knowledge and expertise, understands its characteristics and exposure to risk. In addition, use of the Services can never be considered a safe investment rather only an investment with a high risk of loss inherently associated with it. The risk of loss in trading Cryptocurrencies can be substantial. The User should be aware that the User may sustain a total loss of the deposited funds.
