Cryptoasset Risk Summary
FCA Prescribed Risk Warning
Don't invest unless you're prepared to lose all the money you invest. This is a high-risk investment and you should not expect to be protected if something goes wrong. Take 2 mins to learn more
Due to the possibility of substantial losses, the Financial Conduct Authority considers cryptoasset investments to be high risk.
What Are The Key Risks?
You could lose all the money you invest
Cryptoasset prices can be extremely volatile. Their value can fall rapidly as well as rise, and investors should be prepared for the possibility of losing their entire investment.
The cryptoasset market remains largely unregulated. Money or cryptoassets may also be lost through cyberattacks, fraud, financial crime, platform failure, operational problems or the loss of private keys.
Past performance does not predict future results. Previous price increases, trading results or market performance do not guarantee that similar results will happen again.
You should not expect to be protected if something goes wrong
Most direct cryptoasset investments are not protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
Crypto Wolf Pack is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. Its community, educational content, market commentary, tools and trade discussions are not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
The Financial Ombudsman Service will generally not be able to consider complaints about unregulated activities provided by Crypto Wolf Pack.
You may not be able to sell when you want to
There is no guarantee that a cryptoasset can be sold at a particular time or price.
The ability to sell can depend on market demand, available liquidity and whether the relevant exchange or platform is operating normally. Technology failures, withdrawals being suspended, cyberattacks, platform insolvency or other operational problems may prevent or delay a sale.
Cryptoassets can be complex
Cryptoassets and related trading products can be difficult to understand. Different assets have different structures, purposes and risks.
Information posted by Crypto Wolf Pack, its administrators or its members may include general market commentary, chart analysis, trade ideas or example setups. This information is provided for general educational and informational purposes. It does not take account of an individual's financial position, objectives, experience or tolerance for risk.
Nothing published by Crypto Wolf Pack should be treated as personalised financial, investment, legal or tax advice, or as a guarantee that a trade or investment will be profitable.
Always carry out your own research and consider obtaining advice from a suitably qualified professional.
Leverage, futures and derivatives carry additional risks
Leveraged trading, futures, perpetual contracts and other crypto derivatives are complex and exceptionally high risk. Leverage can magnify losses, positions may be liquidated rapidly and traders may lose their deposited funds.
The Financial Conduct Authority prohibits the sale, distribution and marketing to UK retail consumers of certain cryptoasset derivatives, including contracts for difference, options and futures. The availability of a product through an overseas platform does not remove the risks or necessarily make its promotion or use lawful for a UK retail consumer.
Crypto Wolf Pack does not guarantee the availability, legality or suitability of any product or service discussed by members or third parties.
Do not put all your money into one investment
Concentrating money in one cryptoasset, platform or type of investment increases risk. Diversification may reduce dependence on one investment, but it cannot prevent losses.
The FCA states that a useful general rule is not to place more than 10% of your net assets into high-risk investments. This is general information and is not a personal recommendation.
Third-party platforms and affiliate links
Crypto Wolf Pack may discuss or link to third-party exchanges, platforms, software or services. Some links may be affiliate links, which means Crypto Wolf Pack may receive a commission or other commercial benefit.
An affiliate relationship does not mean that a platform is risk-free, suitable for every person or protected by UK regulation.
Users must examine the platform's legal status, fees, terms, risks and availability in their own jurisdiction before opening an account, depositing money or trading.
Crypto Wolf Pack does not control third-party platforms and is not responsible for their availability, security, solvency, regulatory status or performance.
