Risk disclosure

Last updated: 27 October 2026

Crypto assets are highly volatile and speculative. You can lose some or all of the money you put in. Only use money you can afford to lose, and consider independent professional advice.

Market risk

• Prices can rise or fall sharply within minutes, and liquidity can disappear.
• Past performance does not predict future results. Market caps and volumes can be manipulated.
• Market data on CoinGeography comes from third parties and may be delayed, incomplete or wrong.

Airdrops and reward claims

• Rewards are never guaranteed; projects change criteria, amounts and dates, or cancel campaigns.
• Fake airdrop sites, social media replies and ads are a leading cause of stolen funds. Use only the official links we list and check the URL yourself.
• Never share a seed phrase or private key, and be careful with wallet signatures that grant token approvals.
• Claims may have regional restrictions, KYC requirements or tax consequences.

Token launches, presales and new listings

• New tokens often have little liquidity, concentrated ownership and unlock schedules that can push prices down.
• Presales and ICOs can be unregistered securities offerings in some countries, and many fail or are fraudulent.
• An exchange listing announcement is not an endorsement of the token.

DeFi and smart contracts

• Smart contracts can contain bugs or be exploited; audits reduce but do not remove risk.
• Bridges, stablecoins and liquidity pools carry de-peg, hack and insolvency risks.

Events

Event dates, venues and ticket prices come from organisers and can change. Buy tickets only on the organiser’s official site and check refund terms before you book or travel.

Regulation and tax

Rules for crypto assets differ by country and change often. Some services may be unavailable or illegal where you live. You are responsible for any taxes on your activity.
