Risk warning
Trading cryptocurrencies involves significant risks which may result in material financial losses. Cryptocurrencies are a new asset class and as such are susceptible to large price swings as society attempts to determine their value through the brute forces of supply and demand. Do your own research and trade with caution.
VALR cannot be held responsible for any direct, indirect or consequential losses as a result of the trading contest.
