​

10. Risks
          10.1 Risks associated with trading and holding assets Prices can and do fluctuate on any given day. Due to such price fluctuations, assets may increase in value or lose value at any given moment, or may even become worthless. That is an inherent risk of buying, selling, trading, or holding anything on a Market. Cryptocurrency trading is especially susceptible to bubbles or loss of confidence, which could collapse demand relative to supply. For example, confidence might collapse because of unexpected changes imposed by the software developers, a government crackdown, the creation of competing currencies, or a deflationary or inflationary spiral. Confidence might also collapse because of technical problems such as in the event the anonymity of the system is compromised, if money is lost or stolen or if hackers or governments are able to prevent any transactions from settling.
          10.2 Trading Strategies Risk All the strategies of PTMO focus on market neutrality and the maximum mitigation of market risks. Due to market anomalies, unfair competition, operational anomalies (example: API downtimes or exchanges closing operations without prior notice), or simply statistical anomalies, the Strategies cannot be generated with a 100% certainty of a positive result or the conservation of your value.
          10.3 Operational Risk The security of assets deposited with PTMO is crucial to PTMO. Therefore PTMO takes a range of measures to ensure security. For instance, the distribution of the deposited assets on many cryptocurrency exchanges. PTMO does this to diversify the risk of cryptocurrencies getting lost due to hacks or attacks on a particular exchange. PTMO draws the Principal’s attention to the fact that cryptocurrency exchanges may change their trading rules and/or API terms of use. Such a change may have a significant impact on PTMO’s ability to execute the Strategy on a particular exchange.
          10.4 Regulatory risks Cryptographic currencies and tokens do not have a clear regulatory framework. The position of financial regulatory authorities, as well as governments around the world, are unclear. Therefore there is a risk associated with potential bans from governments, changes in taxation law, special rulings from the financial regulatory authority, and in general any regulation that could affect the use of cryptocurrencies.
