Risk Disclosure Statement

Introduction

Risks Relating to Digital Assets

Digital Assets are decentralised and largely unregulated, presenting unique risks:

• Price Volatility: Digital Asset prices can fluctuate sharply because of market sentiment, regulation, or technology changes. These swings may result in significant losses, including total loss of value.
• No Government Backing: Digital Assets are not legal tender and are not backed by governments or central banks. Their value depends entirely on market demand.
• Irreversible Transactions: Blockchain transactions generally cannot be reversed. Errors, fraud, or accidental transfers may result in permanent loss.
• Market Manipulation: Digital Asset markets can be manipulated through schemes such as pump-and-dump tactics, harming unsuspecting traders.
• Liquidity Risks: Some Digital Assets may have low liquidity, making it difficult to buy or sell at preferred prices or times.
• Fraud and Scams: The ecosystem includes phishing, Ponzi schemes, impersonation, and other scams. Social media hype or celebrity endorsement does not guarantee legitimacy.

Technical and Operational Risks

The Platform relies on technology, creating additional risks:

• Platform Downtime: Maintenance, technical failures, or cyberattacks may make the Platform inaccessible.
• Cybersecurity Threats: Hacking, phishing, and malware may compromise your Account or Digital Assets.
• Blockchain Issues: Congestion, delays, and network forks may disrupt transactions or affect asset values.
• Trading System Errors: Delays, slippage, or malfunctions may lead to unfavorable executions or missed trades.
• Custody Risks: Even where the Company applies security controls, no system is fully immune to errors, breaches, or insolvency.
• Proof of Reserves Limitations: Any proof of reserves disclosed by the Company may not be independently audited and is not a guarantee of solvency or safety.
• Account Security: You are responsible for protecting your credentials, passwords, and private keys. Losses caused by negligence on your side may not be recoverable.

Financial Risks

Trading Digital Assets carries substantial financial risks:

• Total Loss Potential: You may lose all Digital Assets or funds associated with your trading activity.
• Leverage and Margin: Where offered, leverage may amplify both gains and losses, and you may lose more than your initial capital.
• Currency Exchange Risks: Exchange rate movements between fiat and Digital Assets may reduce the value of your holdings.
• No Deposit Insurance: Funds related to Platform use are not protected like bank deposits.
• No Asset Insurance: Digital Assets may not be insured, and in the event of insolvency or failure, recovery may be impossible.

Regulatory and Legal Risks

The regulatory environment for Digital Assets remains uncertain and may change quickly:

• Changing Regulations: New laws or rules may restrict or prohibit Digital Asset trading, transfers, or usage.
• Tax Liabilities: Profits or transactions may create tax obligations that vary by jurisdiction and may change retroactively.
• Jurisdictional Variations: Local laws may differ significantly and may impose extra restrictions or liabilities.
• Unregulated Status: The Platform may not provide the same regulatory protections as traditional investment or banking services.
• Limited Protections: Without full regulatory oversight, dispute resolution and investor safeguards may be limited.

Other Risks

• System failures in order routing, execution, clearing, or internet access may delay or prevent transactions.
• Technical, legal, or regulatory issues may prevent access to your Account or assets.
• Sales or transfers of Digital Assets may trigger taxes or duties in your jurisdiction.
• Rebble may modify, suspend, or terminate parts of the Platform or your access, which may affect your obligations or available actions.
