Risk Disclaimer
Last Updated: December 3, 2025
IMPORTANT WARNING
Trading cryptocurrencies carries substantial risk of loss. This Risk Disclaimer outlines important risks you should understand before using Rapid Cryptoz. Please read carefully and ensure you fully understand the risks involved. Only invest money you can afford to lose completely.
Key Risks to Consider
Market Volatility
Cryptocurrency prices can fluctuate dramatically in short periods, potentially resulting in significant gains or losses.
Security Risks
While we implement robust security measures, no system is completely immune to hacking, theft, or unauthorized access.
Regulatory Uncertainty
Cryptocurrency regulations vary by jurisdiction and are subject to change, which may affect your ability to trade or access funds.
1. General Risk Warning
Trading cryptocurrencies involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. The valuation of cryptocurrencies may fluctuate significantly, and as a result, you may lose substantial value in your investment. Cryptocurrency trading carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors.
Before trading cryptocurrencies, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. You should only invest money that you can afford to lose completely.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those discussed on our platform.
2. Market Volatility Risk
Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile and subject to rapid price changes. Prices can fluctuate by significant percentages within minutes or hours. This volatility may result from:
• Market sentiment and speculation
• Regulatory announcements and legal developments
• Technological changes or vulnerabilities
• Supply and demand dynamics
• Major market participants buying or selling large amounts
• Media coverage and public perception
You acknowledge that you may lose your entire investment due to market volatility.
3. Liquidity Risk
There is no guarantee that a market will exist for your cryptocurrency at all times. During periods of high volatility or low liquidity, you may be unable to buy or sell at your desired price.
P2P trading liquidity depends on other users' willingness to trade. You may not always find a matching order at your preferred price, and order fulfillment may be delayed or impossible.
In extreme market conditions, you may be unable to exit positions or realize profits.
4. Technology and Operational Risks
Blockchain technology and smart contracts, while generally secure, are subject to various technical risks:
• Smart contract bugs or vulnerabilities that may result in loss of funds
• Blockchain network congestion causing transaction delays
• Consensus failures or blockchain forks
• Technical issues with our platform including downtime or data loss
• Cybersecurity threats including hacking and DDoS attacks
• User error such as sending funds to wrong addresses
We implement security best practices, but cannot guarantee 100% protection against all threats.
5. Regulatory and Legal Risks
Cryptocurrency regulation is evolving and varies significantly by jurisdiction. Regulatory changes may:
• Restrict or prohibit cryptocurrency trading in your region
• Impose additional compliance requirements or taxes
• Affect the value or legality of certain cryptocurrencies
• Result in platform service interruptions or shutdowns
You are responsible for complying with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction. We do not provide legal or tax advice.
6. Counterparty Risk
In P2P trading, you are transacting directly with other users. Risks include:
• The other party may fail to honor their obligations
• Payment fraud or chargebacks in fiat transactions
• Disputes that may not be resolved in your favor
• Identity fraud or misrepresentation
While we provide escrow services and dispute resolution, we cannot guarantee the behavior of other users or that you will recover funds in case of fraud.
7. Custody and Self-Custody Risks
If using our platform wallet:
• You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials
• Loss of credentials may result in permanent loss of access to funds
• We cannot recover lost passwords or private keys
If using self-custody (external wallets):
• You have full responsibility for securing your private keys
• Transactions sent to wrong addresses cannot be reversed
• We are not responsible for losses due to user error
8. No Investment Advice

• Third-party service failures or outages
• Changes to third-party terms or pricing
• Security breaches at third-party providers
• Discontinuation of third-party services
We are not responsible for the actions or failures of third-party service providers.
10. Network and Gas Fee Risks
Blockchain transactions require network fees (gas fees) that:
• Can fluctuate significantly based on network congestion
• Are paid in addition to platform fees
• Are non-refundable even if transactions fail
• May exceed the value of small transactions
High network fees may make certain transactions economically unfeasible.
