18. Disclaimer regarding hypothetical performance results
18.1. Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are mentioned below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program.
18.2. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of the trading losses are material points, which can also adversely affect trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the market in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.

30. Risk Disclosure
You shall assume responsibility for any of the risks listed in these Terms and any other risks, assumptions and decisions involved.
a. General risks associated to blockchain technology
You acknowledge that the risks related to your use of the Website include (but are not limited to):
Through the use of Digital Assets, risks and losses can be substantial and may occur over a short period of time;
Digital Assets are generally not legal tender, and are not backed by a central bank, government or, in general, legal entities. This may increase price volatility of such Digital Assets and exposes investors to a heightened risk of loss which may include the entire value of their investment in a Digital Assets;
Legislative and regulatory changes or actions, both domestically and internationally, may adversely affect the use, transfer, exchange and value of Digital Assets;
Regulation of blockchain networks and Digital Assets is nascent, but is likely to evolve significantly. The form of regulatory evolution is uncertain and may vary significantly across jurisdictions. New laws and regulations may inhibit the development and growth of blockchain networks and the adoption and use of Digital Assets which may have a material adverse impact on the value and liquidity of Digital Assets;
Blockchains underlying Digital assets may “fork”, and we may not support the forked Digital assets promptly or at all. The occurrence of a fork would result in multiple versions of the blockchain network running in parallel, but with each version of Digital asset, lacking interchangeability which may negatively impact the value and liquidity of such Digital assets;
Transactions in Digital Assets are irreversible, and accordingly, losses due to fraudulent, hacked or accidental transactions will not be recoverable;
Some Digital Asset transactions shall be deemed to be made when recorded on a public ledger, which is not necessarily the date or time that you, or any other person, initiate the transaction;
Digital Assets in a given address are controlled by the private key of the holder of the address. If the private key is compromised or lost, the Digital Assets in that address may be stolen or lost and otherwise unrecoverable;
Digital Assets may rely on source code which may contain flaws, bugs, defects or inconsistencies which could compromise the predictability, usability, functionality, stability and security of such Digital Assets. In addition, source code modifications or updates may lead to unexpected or unintended outcomes which may adversely affect the utility or functionality of the Services or other Digital Assets;
Blockchain networks underlying Digital assets may face governance issues which may significantly impact the market price of a Digital asset. The Company does not own, govern or control the underlying software protocols of blockchain networks that govern the operation of Digital assets.
In general, the underlying protocols are open source, and anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute them. The Company is not responsible for the operation of the underlying network protocols, and does not make any guarantees regarding their security, functionality, or availability. The nature of Digital Assets may lead to an increased risk of fraud or cyberattacks and may mean that technological difficulties experienced by a third party may prevent access to, or use of, your Digital Assets. Blockchain networks may be the target of malicious attacks or 51% attacks seeking to identify and exploit weaknesses in the software or the protocol, including through the introduction of weaknesses and bugs into core infrastructure of the network and open source code which may result in the loss or theft of Digital Assets.
b. Volatility Risks and Financial Losses
By using this Website, You acknowledge and understand the purpose and complexity of Digital assets, markets and systems based on distributed ledger technology, how their storage is carried out and how they are transmitted and how its full framework are significant and sufficient, and you shall assume responsibility for any of the Risks listed in these Terms and any other risks, assumptions and decisions involved. You should ensure that you have appropriate financial resources to request for the Execution of Orders, and that you have the ability to bear any losses that may arise from your trading activity. You should not rely on being able to generate profits in order to pay down or relinquish any credit or financing you might have entered into. You acknowledge that the Company and the Related Entity does not provide any financial advice or any form of advice in relation to the Transactions you intend to Execute. You are also aware that the market may be highly volatile. Such volatility could be caused not only by the Company's and the Related Entity’s operational performance or other events involving the Company and the Related Entity and/or its Users, or competitors, but also by changes in general conditions in the economy or the financial markets, and the fintech industry in particular. There is also a high-risk of loss which may result from the coordinated purchase and/or sale of Digital assets which may result in an adverse effect on the prices of the Assets which are available within your User Interface. You understand that the Company cannot predict or foresee the possibility of a coordinated purchase and/or sale carried out by an individual third-party or multiple third-parties. Therefore, you will not hold the Company liable for any losses which may result from these instances. As a result of such fluctuations, you are also aware that the Digital Assets which You purchase may not retain the same Transaction Price or above that Transaction Price and important losses may be incurred with potentially no profit or return. The Market Price of Digital assets which appear in your Wallet or which you intend to Execute a Transaction are subject to various factors of price volatility which include, but are not limited to:
Actual or anticipated fluctuations in the financial condition of the market.
Market expectations for the financial performance of Digital assets.
The perception of the success and impact of Digital assets.
The entrance of new individuals within the market, who may enter through other mediums and not necessarily from the Website.
New products in the markets of the Company.
Actual or anticipated sales of the Digital assets and the (il)liquidity of the market for Digital assets.
New laws or regulations or changes in interpretations of existing laws and regulations affecting the Digital assets market (viii) general market and economic conditions.
Confidence in the Fintech industry and/or in distributed ledger technology and/or in Digital assets.
Expiration of any lock-up undertakings related to the Digital assets offered on Exchanges to which the Execution Interface is interfaced.
Expiration of the twelve (12) month period for not using Rewards earned in the Community Website.
Announcements of developments related to the Company's business.
Local market conditions.
The absence of secondary market or demand for Assets; (xiv) the termination of the obligatory Staking period for the benefits.
The price and liquidity of Digital assets have historically been subject to high levels of volatility and significant price fluctuations and may continue to be subject to such volatility in the future. Digital assets are relatively new products and technologies and their acceptance as a form of payment remains limited. In addition, a significant proportion of demand for Digital assets may be generated by speculators seeking returns based on price volatility. As a result, Digital assets are highly susceptible to a wide range of external factors which may have a disproportionately negative impact on the value of such Digital assets as compared with traditional assets. The Company does not provide, nor cannot control, the prices for the Assets for which Orders may be Executed on the Website. The Market Price of the Digital assets is influenced by a broad array of factors and can change rapidly and unexpectedly, meaning the value of those Digital assets and your related profits and losses on your Assets, can also change rapidly and unexpectedly. Market Price and volume fluctuations are often experienced with regards to Digital assets. Such fluctuations as well as the economic situation of the financial markets may have a significant negative effect on the value of Digital assets, regardless of the operating results and the financial position of the Company and the Related Entity. Fluctuations in the Market Price of Digital assets may result in a negative impact on the Digital assets offered by the Exchanges interfaced to the Execution Interface.
c. Risks related to Exchanges
The Company cannot ensure that an active and liquid trading market for Digital assets will exist and that the Market Prices presented for Digital assets on Exchanges interfaced with the Execution Interface will not decline. The liquidity of any Exchange will depend on the number of purchasers and sellers, the market for similar instruments, the market capitulation of the Digital assets and other factors beyond the Company's and/or the Related Entities’ control. By using the Website, You acknowledge and understand the purpose and complexity of Digital assets. You also acknowledge and understand that any systems based on distributed ledger technology, how their storage is carried out, how they are transmitted as well as the and full framework are significant and sufficient, and the tradability of Assets requires them to be traded on an Exchange. The Company cannot guarantee for the listings on Exchanges. In case of a listing on an Exchange, Digital assets could be subject to considerable fluctuations in value and Market Price and that the Digital assets can therefore also exhibit increased or high volatility. This also concerns the future development of the Digital assets and the exchange rate at which the Digital assets could possibly be exchanged into other Digital assets in the future. A forecast of the future performance of the Digital assets or market liquidity is therefore not possible to be given and shall not appear on the Website. However, there is an indication of the trends with which You Execute Orders. You shall be solely responsible for the interpretation which results in you carrying out a Transaction. In particular, no statements will be made regarding how much liquidity is available or could become available for the Digital assets. As a consequence, there can be no assurance (i) that liquidity on the Exchange will develop or continue after the Transaction, (ii) that the Market Price of the Digital assets exhibited by Exchanges will not decline below the Transaction Price or that (iii) other individuals in the market will be able to sell their Digital assets quickly. You are solely responsible for the Orders you pass through the Website and the Execution Interface. The Transaction Price may not be indicative of the Market Price of the Digital assets after completion of the Transaction. The Market Price exhibited on the Exchanges to which the Execution Interface is interfaced will depend upon several factors which are beyond the Company's control. These factors include, but are not limited to:
Market expectation of Virtual performance or financial condition.
Fluctuations in the financial positions or operating results.
General market and economic conditions.
Announcements by foundations or companies have launched the Digital assets, their business, their customers and their suppliers and any other secondary markets which are not interfaced to the Execution Interface.
It is unclear, according to the current state of the law and case law, whether and to which extent the transfer of Digital assets will be treated under the law of the country from where the Digital asset is launched. Therefore, the User acknowledges that activity which was deemed to be legal in a country where the Services are offered may be deemed to be illegal upon a change of law or due to the introduction of a directive, guideline or regulation from a governmental authority. You have the sole responsibility of monitoring the value of the Assets you hold and you should ensure that you can access the Website on an ongoing basis so as to do this. By using the Website, You hereby understand and acknowledge that any Digital asset that you place on your User Interface may be held on your behalf by the Company in a 8.finance.
ENVIRONMENT for operational purposes only. You hereby acknowledge and understand that there are risks associated with holding Digital asset on our platform, including but not limited to Security Breaches. Blockchain protocols are entirely digital and, as with any virtual system, are at risk from hackers, malware and operational glitches. Even though our platform take various steps to preserve the security, Digital assets which are held in wallets provided by our users remain vulnerable to hacking. If a thief gains access to one or more wallets (i.e. by stealing the private encryption key to the Exchange wallets), he/she could transfer the stolen Digital assets to another account.
d. Risks associated to Wallets and/or Programs
YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THE LICENSOR, THROUGH THE WEBSITE, SOLELY ACTS AS A TECHNOLOGY PROVIDER WITH RESPECT TO WALLETS INTERFACED WITH THE WEBSITE. THEREFORE, ANY LOSSES WHICH MAY BE INCURRED BY THE USER FROM THE USE OF THE REWARD WALLET(S) ALLOWING YOU TO PARTICIPATE TO PROGRAMS OPERATED BY THIRD PARTIES ARE SOLELY THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PROGRAM OPERATORS.
The Company does not own or control any of the smart contracts or wallets’ underlying source code of Programs. There are risks of severe delays due to the extended locking period of staking for some protocols such as Ethereum. There are risks of cyber threats or hack when placing the Digital assets into Programs, which may lead to losses or damages since Programs are based on smart contracts. Programs and/or underlying smart contracts and/or wallets may be hacked and/or controlled by hackers which may take control over Digital assets transferred to Programs. If this happens, Programs will not be in a position to refund the Users. There is no warranty that the Programs Gateway(s) are covered by an insurance policy or insurance scheme which covers Programs Gateway(s). The Company does not guarantee that the Programs Gateway(s) secure the Digital assets which are transferred to the Programs. There is, therefore, an important counterparty risk when placing Digital assets into Programs. Since it only acts as a technology provider the licensor does not constantly check the creditworthiness of the Programs Gateway(s). The Company excludes all liability risks of default or any other risk other than contractual risk. There is a potential risk that, like any organization, the operations may not continue indefinitely or may not be able to pay the sales proceeds. There is no guarantee that the Digital assets transferred to the Programs Gateway(s) shall be held separately from their operational funds. The Company does not guarantee that the Programs will hold the funds segregated and it cannot guarantee what occurs with the funds. The regulatory status of the Programs is currently unsettled. It is possible that in the future, certain laws, regulations, policies or rules relating to the Programs’ business models or operations may be implemented, which would directly or indirectly affect or restrict the Program Gateway(s) and the Program Services on the App.
e. Liquidity Risks
The Digital assets made available on the Exchanges which are interfaced with the Execution Interface are all admitted to trading on the Exchanges. However, it is not guaranteed that there will be enough demand to carry out the Transaction when you place your Order(s). In some circumstances, such as instances of market volatility or where any Exchange has been suspended or otherwise restricted, it could also not be possible to carry out the Transactions within the App.
f. Risks related to Profile Statistics
These Risks are related to information provided on the Website regarding your Assets and includes, but is not limited to, financial market data, quotes, news, analyst opinions and research reports, graphs or data and Daily Analysis. The information provided by us on the App Content or Website Content is not intended as advice. The Company and all Related Entities (including its employees) does not endorse or approve the information and we make it available to you only as a service for your own convenience. The Company and its Third-Party Service Providers do not guarantee the accuracy, timeliness, completeness or correct sequencing of any of the App Content or Website Content or warrant any results from your use or reliance on the information. Any information may quickly become unreliable for various reasons including, for example, changes in market conditions or economic circumstances. Neither the Company and any related entity nor the ThirdParty Service Providers or Exchanges have an obligation towards the User to update any information or opinions or Market Prices.
g. Cyber security attacks
The Company cannot warrant that there will be no threats or security risks or hacks to the App, the Software, the Interface, the servers within the Company which operate the Website or the Execution Interface. The Company cannot warrant that there will not be interruptions to the Services due to failures of Exchanges which are interfaced to the Execution Interface, due to the failure of the operations of the of the Digital asset Exchange. Code cracking or technical advances such as the development of quantum computers, could present a risk for all distributed ledger technology. This could result in the theft, loss, disappearance, destruction or devaluation of Digital Assets. The source code underlying the App, the Execution Interface, the Exchanges to which the Execution Interface is interfaced and the source code underlying the Digital asset could be updated, amended, altered or modified from time to time. There can be no guarantee that such update, amendment, alteration or modification will not adversely affect the functionality of the Digital asset. The Company and/or Related Entities do not own or control the underlying software protocols which govern the operation of Digital assets available for exchange on the Website. In general, the underlying protocols are open source and anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute them. The Company and/or Related Entities is/are not responsible for operation of the underlying protocols and makes no guarantee of their functionality, security, or availability. Since blockchain is an independent public peer-to peer network and is not controlled in any way or manner the Company and/or Related Entities shall not be responsible for any failure and/or mistake and/or error and/or breach which shall occur in blockchain or in any other networks in which the Digital assets are being issued and/or traded. The Company may, in the event of a fork, freeze the exchanging of the Digital assets which are affected by this change in technology until the User has decided as to which version of the protocol it will support. The Company may choose to not allow Transactions for a Digital asset which underwent a hard fork. In the event of such a freeze, the User will not be able to perform any Transaction related to this Virtual asset. Such a freeze may occur after the hard fork has started to take effect. This could lead to significant uncertainties as to the Market Price of Digital assets which has been transferred immediately before the freeze has been implemented. Hackers or other groups or organizations may also attempt to interfere with Wallets managed by the Digital asset Custodian through Sybil attacks, phishing, spoofing, smurfing, malware attacks, consensus-based attacks and attacks related to any change of control within the distributed ledger technology network. It is important to understand these risks due to the fact that the Company does not hold the Assets itself.
ALSO, BY USING THE APP, YOU HEREBY UNDERSTAND AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY DIGITAL ASSETS THAT YOU PLACE ON YOUR USER INTERFACE COULD BE TEMPORARILY HELD ON ANY OF THE EXCHANGES OR WITH A THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDER FOR OPERATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. BY USING THE WEBSITE, YOU HEREBY UNDERSTAND AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOUR ASSETS COULD BE AT A RISK BECAUSE OF HACKS OR SECURITY RISKS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A THEFT OR LOSS OF ANY OF YOUR DIGITAL ASSETS.
h. Legal risks
Generally, the regulation related to the operation of the Website and the Execution Interface embedded into the Website, as well as the regulation of Digital assets, Exchanges, Wallets, Programs is likely to rapidly evolve. These foregoing regulations can also vary significantly among international jurisdictions. Such regulations are therefore subject to significant uncertainty. The way your Assets will be held by the Company, by the Digital asset Custodian may also have regulatory consequences which cannot be foreseen by the Company, although it struggles to adapt to the everchanging regulatory practices. To the extent that a domestic government or quasi-governmental agency exerts regulatory authority, a Digital asset, may be materially and adversely affected. Digital assets also face an uncertain regulatory landscape in many jurisdictions. Various jurisdictions may, soon, adopt laws, regulations or directives that affect Digital assets. Such laws, regulations or directives may conflict with the Company’s current understanding of the legal landscape or may directly and negatively impact the Company’s Services. The effect of any future regulatory change is impossible to predict, but such change could be substantial and materially adverse to the development and growth of the Company. New or changing laws and regulations or interpretations of existing laws and regulations in various jurisdictions may materially and adversely impact the value of the Digital asset, the liquidity of the Digital assets, the ability to access marketplaces or exchanges on which to trade the Digital assets, and the structure, rights and transferability of Digital assets or exchanges. Future changes in national and international laws and other regulations may affect the Company’s operations and/or the way the Website operates and/or the availability of the Services. The Company acknowledges that it is exposed to national laws and cross-border legislation embodied in laws and directives in the areas of tax, anti-money laundering and financial services. Further, it cannot be excluded that changes in the regulatory environment will adversely affect the Website and/or the provision of the Services. The tax treatment of Digital assets is uncertain and may result in adverse tax consequences. The use of Digital assets to make purchases may expose users to tax consequences that would not have resulted had their purchases been made in a Fiat Assets and the purchase and use of Digital assets may have adverse tax consequences including withholding tax, income taxes and tax reporting requirements. Users must seek their own tax advice. The Company does not exclude the possibility that the Digital assets placed by you at the Digital assets Custodian are returned back to your External Wallet. The Third-Party Service Providers have their own internal anti-money laundering policies and procedures which are applicable to any Assets which are available on your User Interface. Therefore, even though these Assets are accepted through the App and subject to the Company’s AML Policy, you are also aware that there is the possibility that your Assets might be refused by the Third-Party Service Providers.
i. Reputational risks
A reputational risk of Digital assets resulting from the wrongful behavior of some actors, including Programs and/or Program Gateways, in this field cannot be excluded by the Company and Related Entities. The materialization of such risk may have a negative impact on the Market Price of Digital assets available on the Website.
j. Misrepresentation Risks
Digital assets which are launched on an Exchange are usually supported by a white paper or prospectus, depending on whether the launched product is classifiable as a payment token, an asset token or a utility token. The content of the white paper or the prospectus is the responsibility of the entity or foundation which issues the Digital asset, the Company is not responsible for the white paper quality. The Company does not assume responsibility for information within the whitepaper or prospectus which explains the purposes, scope or intent of a third-party when launching a Digital asset within an Exchange. If the Digital asset is available on any of the Exchanges to which the Execution Interface is connected, the User accepts and warrants that he/she will not hold the Company and/or any Related Entity liable for any misrepresentation of information or inaccuracies which are present in the whitepaper or prospectus of a Digital asset.
