Risks and Considerations
Asset Volatility
Risk of significant or a total loss on an entity's crypto asset holdings due to asset volatility. This risk varies between cryptocurrency assets.
Counterparty
If Block Earner or a 3rd party becomes insolvent, is hacked or is exploited by a malicious actor, your funds may be at risk, and you may incur partial or total loss of your cryptocurrency.
Market
Risk of loss on financial investments caused by adverse price movements. In cryptocurrency markets, this may be compounded by the liberal use of leverage.
Price Stability
Block Earner does not control the issuance or redemption of USD Coin and cannot guarantee that 1 USD Coin will remain pegged to 1 USD. Cryptocurrencies including Pax Gold, Wrapped Bitcoin and Ethereum are subject to sudden, volatile price swings.
Regulatory
Risk of regulatory intervention or breaches may lead to business issues and uncertainty. This is particularly relevant as the industry is relatively new and rules continue to evolve.
Operational
Risk of loss caused by flawed or failed processes, policies, systems or events that disrupt business operations; employee errors and criminal activities such as fraud.
Liquidity
Risk that a market’s supply is completely borrowed out, and suppliers, that typically are able to supply and withdraw funds at will, are not able to withdraw all of their funds on demand.
Smart Contract
Risk that the protocol has a bug or exploit that a malicious actor could use for any possibility, including withdrawing all your cryptocurrency assets in the protocol affected.
