IX. RISK DISCLOSURE

  1. Prior to using the Nexo Staking Product, you should carefully consider the risks associated therewith, including but not limited to premature unstaking, permanent loss, slashing, etc. You should examine your financial resources and risk tolerance to determine whether the Nexo Staking Product is appropriate for you. Digital Assets are more volatile relative to most fiat currencies, and other assets, and this unpredictability of their price may result in significant losses over a short period of time. We are not responsible for the Digital Assets market, and we make no representations or warranties concerning the real or perceived value of any Digital Assets, and the quality, suitability, truth, usefulness, accuracy, or completeness of any data provided by Nexo. You shall, therefore, carefully consider whether holding Digital Assets is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. 
  2. Digital Assets are not money or legal tender, are not backed by the government or by a central bank and mostly do not have any underlying assets, revenue stream, or another source of value.
  3. The regulatory status of Digital Assets is currently unsettled, varies among jurisdictions and is subject to significant uncertainty. Legislative and regulatory changes or actions relating to Digital Assets or blockchain technology at a state or international level may adversely affect or restrict, as applicable, the use, transfer, exchange and value of the Digital Assets, as well as the provision of the Nexo Staking Product, the related Nexo Services or any of them. The value of the Digital Assets may be derived from the continued willingness of market participants to exchange fiat currencies for Digital Assets, which may result in permanent and total loss of value of a particular Digital Asset should the market for it disappear. 
  4. Also, some Digital Assets transactions are deemed to be made when recorded on a public ledger, which is not always the date or time that you initiated the transaction. Digital Assets ownership is often determined by a decentralized public ledger and usually cannot be cancelled or reversed. 
  5. The nature of Digital Assets may lead to an increased risk of fraud or cyberattacks and any losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions will likely not be recoverable. 
  6. Keep in mind that we do not provide investment advice and the information coming from Nexo shall not be used as a basis for making decisions about investing in a particular Digital Asset. 
  7. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING WHETHER THE USE OF THE NEXO STAKING PRODUCT IS LEGAL IN YOUR JURISDICTION AND YOU SHALL NOT USE IT SHOULD SUCH USE BE ILLEGAL IN YOUR JURISDICTION. IF YOU ARE UNCERTAIN, PLEASE SEEK INDEPENDENT LEGAL ADVICE.
  8. We may be forced to suspend, discontinue, or change aspects of the Nexo Staking Product or any of the related Nexo Services in any jurisdiction, without notice, if demanded by the regulators or Applicable Law, or for whatever other reason. In such case the Digital Assets in your Nexo Account may be frozen for an indefinite period of time until the matter is resolved.
  9. You understand and agree that you use the Nexo Account and the Nexo Staking Product at your own risk. This section is not exhaustive and does not disclose all the risks associated with the Digital Assets and the use of the Nexo Staking Product and any of the related Nexo Services. You shall, therefore, carefully consider whether such use is suitable for you in light of your circumstances and financial resources.
