10. RISK DISCLOSURES

Trading Digital Assets and/or Digital Asset Derivatives is risky and you should never trade more than you can afford to lose. The following list of risks associated with Digital Assets, and Digital Asset Derivatives, and the Services is not exhaustive. Please read the Risk Warning  for further information.

  1. Digital Asset prices are highly volatile and trading in Digital Assets is extremely risky. In addition, several factors may affect market liquidity for a particular Digital Asset, such as regulatory activity, market manipulation, the acts or omissions of the issuer of the Digital Asset, or unexplainable price volatility. By using the Services, you accept the risk of trading Digital Assets, and Digital Asset Derivatives. In entering into any transaction, you represent that you have been, are, and will be solely responsible for making your own independent appraisal of the risks of the transaction and the underlying Digital Asset.
  2. We do not advise on the merits of any particular Digital Asset Exchange. We do not advise on transactions, or associated risks, or provide any other financial, investment or legal advice in connection with the Services or services provided by Digital Asset Exchanges. To the extent that we do provide trading data, post market commentary, articles, or make social media posts, the act of doing so is incidental to your relationship with us and such information may not be considered as investment or financial advice and should not be construed as such. BUYING OR SELLING DIGITAL ASSETS AND/OR DIGITAL ASSET DERIVATIVES IS SOLELY THE USER’S DECISION AND WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENT LOSS.
  3. The availability of a Digital Asset Exchange via the Services does not indicate our approval or disapproval of their merits. We give no warranty as to the suitability or reliability of a Digital Asset Exchange, and we owe no fiduciary duty in our relations with you. You must conduct your own due diligence.
  4. No brokerage of transactions or provision of investment advice. We provide a software and platform for connecting Users to Digital Asset Exchanges. We do not have any control over your External Exchange Account. We do not broker transactions on your behalf. Our Relationship does not constitute a Broker-Client Relationship. We do not act as a principal, counterparty, or market-maker in the transactions effected through trading using the Services or in providing margin for Margin Trading on the Trading Terminal.
  5. We do not guarantee continuous, uninterrupted or secure access to any part of the Services, and operation of our Website or Services may be interfered with by numerous factors outside of our control, including regulatory reasons and issues with various Blockchain networks.
  6. Tealstreet provides the Trading Terminal, an interface that connects users to Digital Asset Exchanges. However, Tealstreet does not operate a Digital Asset Exchange. We do not administer the underlying trading platforms of the Digital Asset Exchanges for the bids or offers and we do not enforce contracts among parties engaged in activities available on those Digital Asset Exchanges through the Trading Terminal. The underlying trading platform of the Trading Terminal is administered and operated by the Digital Asset Exchange. We shall in no event be held liable for any loss or other damages, including but not limited to special, incidental, consequential, or other damages arising from the acts of any operator of the Digital Asset Exchange. You are responsible for understanding the Terms and Conditions of the operators of the Digital Asset Exchanges.
  7. Tealstreet does not provide custodial services. Digital Assets accessed through your Tealstreet account are maintained in your External Exchange Account from a Digital Asset Exchange. You acknowledge, understand and agree that Tealstreet shall not be held liable for losses arising from any security issues of the Digital Asset Exchanges or from any actions taken by the Digital Asset Exchanges.
  8. Although Tealstreet uses its best efforts to conduct comprehensive due diligence on the Digital Asset Exchanges available in the Trading Terminal, these Digital Asset Exchanges may be unregulated exchanges and their practices may vary widely, including as to their security, encryption, and liability for losses. Digital Asset Exchanges may not be required to comply with any rules regarding wash trading, insider trading, promoting price discovery, insuring losses, protecting against fraud, ensuring anti-money laundering compliance, and many other salient features. Digital Asset Exchanges may carry on fraudulent operations or fronts for fraudulent schemes and be in a jurisdiction where there is no likelihood of recovery or recompense. Digital Asset Exchanges could provide incorrect, delayed, or otherwise flawed data for a variety of reasons, including as a result of software bugs and the aforementioned limited oversight on markets for Digital Assets, and/or Digital Asset Derivatives. Such poor data could misinform the User trading strategies or engender inaccurate price discovery mechanisms. Errors, fraud, and other issues with Digital Asset Exchanges have resulted in extensive, irretrievable losses on multiple occasions in the recent past. The underlying software and mechanisms for the Digital Asset Exchanges could malfunction, executing trades for the Users at faulty prices and adversely affecting the Users’ investments. Digital Asset Exchanges could choose to roll back trades to the benefit of other parties but to the detriment of the Users. In general, errors and unreviewable decisions by the exchanges could adversely impact the value of the investment of the Users.
