MARKETS / CRYPTOCURRENCIES
Digital assets.
Very real risks.
Crypto markets evolve quickly. Understanding the technology is only one part of understanding the exposure.
Know what you are trading.
A cryptoasset may be native to a network or issued for another purpose. Direct ownership and derivative exposure have different custody, settlement and counterparty risks. A familiar token name does not tell you how a product works.
WHAT MOVES THIS MARKET
01
Network and ecosystem developments
Protocol changes, adoption and security incidents can affect sentiment and utility.
02
Liquidity and market structure
Fragmented venues, concentrated ownership and changes in liquidity can contribute to abrupt price movements.
03
Policy and risk appetite
Regulatory developments and shifts in broader market sentiment can affect cryptoasset prices.
See the risks clearly.
Prices can change sharply and losses may be total. Technology failures, custody arrangements, cyber incidents and platform or counterparty failures add risks. Leverage increases exposure to loss.
Before you trade
Confirm product availability in your jurisdiction, whether you own the underlying asset, the custody/settlement structure, hours, pricing source and all costs.
A little more context.
Does the artwork show VibleMarkets supported tokens?
No. The tokens are illustrative. The approved list and jurisdictional availability remain to be confirmed.
Are crypto markets risk free because they use blockchain?
No. Network technology does not remove market, operational, cyber, custody or counterparty risks.
