    Risk Disclosure

    Purpose

    Trading and holding crypto-assets involves significant risk and may not be suitable for all users. By accessing or using the CoinJar platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted the risks described below. CoinJar Europe Limited, as a regulated Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) under MiCAR, provides services without any guarantees regarding the value, performance, or security of crypto-assets and accepts no liability for any loss, whether direct or indirect, arising from the use of its services, reliance on information provided, or the trading of crypto-assets on the platform. Users are solely responsible for making their own independent decisions, including compliance with applicable legal, tax, and regulatory requirements.

    1. Financial Risks

    • Market Risk: Crypto-asset prices are highly volatile and may fluctuate rapidly. You may incur substantial losses in a short period, including the full value of your investment.
    • Liquidity Risk: Some crypto-assets may have low trading volumes, making it difficult to execute trades at desired prices or times. Illiquid markets may cause slippage or trading delays.
    • Issuer and Counterparty Risk: Certain crypto-assets are issued or backed by third-party entities. These entities may fail to meet obligations, impacting the value or redeemability of the asset.
    • No Guarantee of Returns: Crypto-asset trading is speculative. CoinJar does not guarantee profits or returns, and past performance is not indicative of future results.
    • Tax Risk: Tax treatment of crypto-assets varies by jurisdiction and may change over time. You are responsible for understanding and complying with all local tax obligations related to crypto-asset trading, income, and capital gains.

    2. Security and Operational Risks

    • Cybersecurity Risk: Despite robust safeguards, no system is immune to hacking, phishing, or malware attacks. Unauthorized access may result in loss or theft of assets.
    • Custody and Wallet Risk: Assets held on CoinJar are secured using industry-standard technologies. However, risks remain, including loss of access to private keys, service disruptions, or breaches compromising stored funds.
    • Operational and Technology Risk: Service disruptions due to software bugs, system outages, or technical failures may affect your ability to access the platform, execute trades, or withdraw assets.
    • Fraud and Financial Crime Risk: The crypto industry may be targeted by scams, money laundering, or market manipulation. CoinJar operates in compliance with AML/KYCregulations and monitors transactions continuously, but residual risks remain.

    3. Crypto-Specific and Regulatory Risks

    • Regulatory Risk: The regulatory landscape for crypto-assets is evolving under MiCAR and national law. Changes in laws or guidance may affect the availability, transferability, or legality of certain crypto-assets or services.
    • Token Design and White Paper Risk: Some crypto-assets may have complex or experimental technical designs. Users should review the associated white paper or summary document to understand features, risks, and rights.
    • Blockchain and Consensus Risk: Crypto-assets rely on blockchain networks that may experience forks, bugs, or consensus failures, which can impact asset usability, value, or availability.
    • Collateralisation Risk: For asset-referenced tokens or crypto-assets claiming backing by reserves, there is a risk that collateral is insufficient, mismanaged, or undisclosed. Insufficient reserves may compromise stability or redeemability.
    • Jurisdictional Restrictions: CoinJar services may not be legally available in all countries. You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the platform complies with your local laws.

    4. General Disclaimers

    • Not Financial Advice: Information on this platform is not investment, legal, tax, or financial advice. You should consult a qualified professional before making any investment decision.
    • Asset Understanding: Users should review each crypto-asset’s white paper or summary document before trading.
