OKX Expands to Belgium: New Crypto Trading Opportunities for Belgian Residents

Virtual Currencies: Understanding the Risks

Important Warning:
Virtual currencies carry real risks. The only guarantee in crypto is risk.

Key risks to consider:

High volatility: Virtual currency values can fluctuate dramatically, potentially resulting in total loss of initial investment.
No deposit protection: Unlike bank deposits, virtual currencies aren't covered by guarantee funds.
Market vulnerabilities: No legal safeguards exist against market manipulation or insider trading in crypto markets.
Technology dependence: These currencies rely on emerging technologies that may not be fully tested.
Irreversible loss: Losing wallet access codes means permanent loss of stored currencies.
Limited acceptance: Crypto isn't widely accepted as payment, with no legal obligation for merchants to accept it.
