Risk Warning Disclosure Statement
Please read the following risk warnings carefully before using the Cryptocurrency Service.
This document provides you with information about the risks associated with using the Cryptocurrency Services and authorizing Cryptocurrency Transactions. The defined terms used in this document are the same as those set out in the Cryptocurrency Service Terms of Use. Due to high volatility may get potential losses; financial researchers and analyser considers investments in cryptoassets to be high risk.
What are the key risks?
You could lose all the money you invest:
• The performance of most cryptoassets can be highly volatile, with their value dropping as quickly as it can rise. You should be prepared to lose all the money you invest in cryptoassets.
• The cryptoasset market is decentralised and largely unregulated. There is a risk of losing money or any cryptoassets you purchase due to risks such as cyber-attacks, financial crime, and firm failure.
You should not expect to be protected if something goes wrong:
• Cryptocurrency largely decentralised, Govt. or any financial institute or any Financial Services provider doesn’t protect this type of investment because it’s not a ‘specified investment’ under the Govt. regulatory regime – in other words, this type of investment isn’t recognised by any Govt.
• The Financial Ombudsman Service will not be able to consider complaints related about that firm.
You may not be able to sell your investment when you want to:
• There is no guarantee that investments in cryptoassets can be easily sold at any given time. The ability to sell a cryptoasset depends on various factors, including the supply and demand in the market at that time.
• Operational failings such as technology outages, cyber-attacks and comingling of funds could cause unwanted delay and you may be unable to sell your cryptoassets at the time you want.
Cryptoasset investments can be complex:
• Investments in cryptoassets can be complex, making it difficult to understand the risks associated with the investment.
• You should do your own research before investing. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Risks related to stablecoins or asset-backed tokens. When using our Cryptocurrency Service, you may be exposed to (purchase interest in or instruct us to buy) stablecoins or asset-backed tokens, as such may be part of our Supported Cryptocurrencies. Such crypto assets carry additional specific risks:
• Issuers of stablecoins and/or asset-backed tokens use stabilisation mechanisms to maintain a constant value relative to an official fiat currency or to another asset, often another reserve asset (underlying asset), an algorithm to match supply and demand or a combination of both. These stabilisation mechanisms depend on the value of the underlying asset, the efficiency of the used algorithms and the transparency and auditability of the respective issuers.
• You should not expect to be protected if the value of the stablecoins or the asset-backed tokens is not maintained by their respective issuers.
• You may not be able to redeem your stablecoins or asset-backed tokens at par value to their referenced official fiat currency or referenced asset.
Don’t put all your eggs in one basket:
• Putting all your money into a single type of investment is risky. Spreading your money across different investments makes you less dependent on any one to do well.
• A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk investments.
Light Bitcoin Foundation believes that while virtual assets (or “assets”, “tokens”, or “cryptocurrencies”) carry revolutionary potential that will transform our traditional financial system, they also represent a still relatively novel innovation that leverages a rapidly evolving and dynamically changing technology. We believe that the novelty of virtual assets and the broader industry heightens our responsibility to ensure that consumers have access to tokens on our platform that are of high quality, have practical utility, and carry innovative long-term potential.
Furthermore, regulators across multiple jurisdictions where Light Bitcoin Foundation is licensed or active have introduced formal requirements for Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) to have well-documented systems, standards and processes for listing and keeping tokens on their platforms, including Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority.
To ensure that it not only complies with relevant regulatory requirements but proactively contributes to consumer safety and protection by setting a higher standard for the industry in general, Light Bitcoin Foundation created a firm-wide Token Management Policy. The Virtual Assets Assessment Framework forms a crucial part of the aforementioned policy and Light Bitcoin Foundation’ token management system and processes.
Light Bitcoin Foundation (“the Firm” or “Light Bitcoin Foundation”) is a regulated Virtual Asset Service Provider (“VASP”) based in the UAE and having its provisional operating permit from the Dubai Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (“VARA) to carry the business of Virtual Assets or Broker-Dealer services in relations to virtual assets in and from Dubai. The laws and regulations administered by VARA and the Emirates Securities and Commodities Authority (ESCA) are binding on the Firm.
This Risk Warning Disclosure Statement (“RWDS”) is published in accordance with the VARA Market Conduct Rulebook requirement to provide a detailed description of all material risks associated with virtual assets listed and traded on Light Bitcoin Foundation.

Virtual Asset Risk Warning
Investment in virtual assets carries a high degree of risk. It is possible for users transacting on Light Bitcoin Foundation to lose their partial capital or entire capital.
Virtual assets prices tend to be extremely volatile, unpredictable and susceptible to irrational market forces. Virtual assets may lose their value in part or in whole due to extreme volatility.
Virtual assets do not have legal tender status in the UAE and many other jurisdictions. They are not back by the UAE government or the government of many other countries.
Virtual assets may not always be transferable and some transfers may be irreversible.
Virtual assets have limited or, in some cases, no mechanism for the recovery of lost or stolen virtual assets.
Virtual assets are transacted on new technologies such as distributed ledger technologies (“DLT”) and the blockchain and are therefore subject to the following risks:
a) Anonymity (difficulty in identifying the sender and/or receiver);
b) Inability to reverse accidental transaction.
The market for virtual assets may experience periods of decreased liquidity or even periods of illiquidity.
The nature of virtual assets may lead to an increased risk of fraud, scams, manipulation, financial crimes, theft including through hacks and other targeted schemes, cybercrimes or attacks which may not benefit from legal protection.
Virtual assets may become worthless which may result in a user’s holding of the underlying virtual asset becoming worthless. Underlying protocols of virtual assets may become subject to sudden changes in operating rules (forks) and other events and transformations which may materially affect the value, function, description or characteristics of the virtual asset.
The features, functions, characteristics, operations, use and other properties of a virtual asset and its underlying software, networks, protocols, systems and other technology, including any blockchain (if applicable) used to administer, create, issue, transfer, cancel, use or transact in a virtual asset may be complex, technical or difficult to understand or evaluate.
Given the nature of virtual assets, any technological difficulties experienced by Light Bitcoin Foundation may prevent the access or use of users’ virtual assets.
