3.1 Price volatility
Cryptocurrency prices can rise or fall sharply and unpredictably, sometimes within minutes, in response to market sentiment, regulatory news, liquidity conditions, or events with no advance warning. Past price performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.
3.2 Irreversibility of transactions
Blockchain transactions are generally final once confirmed. If you send cryptocurrency to the wrong address, mistype an address, or authorize a transaction in error, it is usually impossible for Libera Investments or anyone else to reverse, cancel, or recover it.
3.3 Wallet security and self-custody
If you hold your own wallet and private keys or seed phrase, you are solely responsible for keeping them secure. Loss of your private keys or seed phrase, or their compromise by a third party, will typically result in permanent and irreversible loss of access to your funds. Libera Investments cannot recover lost keys, reset wallet passwords, or reverse unauthorized transfers made from your wallet.
3.4 Cybersecurity, phishing, and impersonation fraud
Scammers frequently impersonate cryptocurrency businesses, including through fake websites, fraudulent support accounts, and phishing messages. Libera Investments will never ask you for your private keys, seed phrase, or wallet password, and will never ask you to send funds to “verify,” “unlock,” or “insure” an account. Treat any such request, even if it appears to come from us, as fraudulent.
3.5 Regulatory and legal uncertainty
The legal and regulatory treatment of cryptocurrency varies by country, is evolving, and may change with little notice, including in Suriname. Future legal or regulatory changes could restrict your ability to buy, sell, hold, or transfer cryptocurrency, or could affect its value or tax treatment.
3.6 Tax implications
Buying, selling, holding, or spending cryptocurrency may have tax consequences in your jurisdiction of residence. Libera Investments does not provide tax advice. You are responsible for determining and meeting any tax obligations arising from your transactions.
3.7 Network, protocol, and technology risk
Cryptocurrency networks may experience congestion, elevated transaction fees, forks, software bugs, or upgrades that could delay, alter, or affect the transactions you make. Neither Libera Investments nor any third party guarantees the continuous, uninterrupted operation of any blockchain network.
3.8 Liquidity and counterparty risk
The ability to convert cryptocurrency to fiat currency, or vice versa, at a given price is not guaranteed and may be affected by market conditions, payment processor limitations, or restrictions on fiat withdrawals in your jurisdiction. Where Libera Investments relies on third-party exchanges, payment processors, or liquidity providers to complete your transaction, the failure or insolvency of such a party could affect our ability to complete or settle your transaction.
3.9 No investment advice
Nothing published or communicated by Libera Investments, including educational or informational content, constitutes investment advice or a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any asset. You should conduct your own research and, where appropriate, consult an independent professional adviser before transacting.
