Risk disclosure

This site is educational and does not provide investment, legal, tax or financial advice.

Market risk

Digital-asset values can change rapidly and substantially. A protocol feature or validator reward mechanism does not remove price risk.

Protocol and software risk

Blockchain software can contain defects, experience disruption or change through upgrades. Smart contracts can contain bugs or unexpected dependencies.

Custody and key risk

Loss or compromise of private keys can result in loss of control. Third-party custodians introduce separate operational and legal risks.

Staking risk

Proof-of-stake participation can involve penalties, slashing, lock-up constraints, third-party service risk and protocol changes.
