RISK OF CRYPTOCURRENCIES

Please be aware that cryptocurrency carries significant risks. The User should carefully consider whether it is appropriate for you to buy cryptocurrency.

These risks include the following:

• like any other digital system, cryptocurrencies are at risk of being hacked or affected by technical problems. This could result in losing cryptocurrency or delay the User’s ability to sell, transfer or spend it;
• the regulation (or lack of regulation) of cryptocurrency or crypto exchanges can change at any time. Any change is likely to affect the value of any cryptocurrency; and
• the cryptocurrency prices are very volatile (more so than central government-issued fiat currencies). This could happen if, for example: (i) a new, better cryptocurrency is created; (ii) software developers make unexpected changes to how the cryptocurrency works; or (iii) there is a change in cryptocurrency regulation.

The price or value of cryptocurrencies can rapidly increase or decrease at any time. It may even fall to zero. Unlike fiat currencies, no bank or government can stabilize the value of cryptocurrency if it changes suddenly.

All Users should be aware that marketplace is all about calculated risks. And one of those risks is the situation when there is a price difference from the amount of the original market order and the actual price paid of a stock (“Slippage”). Slippage can, and does, happen in any trade situation, and occurs to both cryptocurrency and traditional assets – it is a regular market phenomenon and occurs in all kinds of markets, be they equities, currencies, bonds, futures or cryptocurrency. Sudden price changes usually occur with major news events, and with certain trading seasons. Therefore, Deuss stipulates that there is a possibility of the slipping of the purchase price (settlement) by 0.3% for centralized exchanges and 1% for decentralized exchanges. The User must be aware of this when deciding to use Deuss Services.
