PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Product Overview

Blockchain-based assets have distinct supply rules, network uses, and custody arrangements. Their holder rights differ from company shares and issuer-backed securities

Asset form

Blockchain-based digital assets

Main considerations

Price, liquidity and custody

Ownership arrangements

Self-custody or third-party custody

01 / PRODUCT GUIDE

Investment Approach

Research connects token economics, market liquidity, and network dependencies. Position sizing and custody review are considered alongside portfolio concentration and the ability to exit under stress

02 / PRODUCT GUIDE

Key Risk Considerations

Prices can be highly volatile. Key loss, platform failure, smart-contract vulnerabilities, and withdrawal restrictions can impair access or cause a total loss. Continuous market activity does not guarantee uninterrupted trading or settlement

03 / PRODUCT GUIDE

Asset categories and what ownership means

Crypto assets are digitally recorded assets with different issuance rules, purposes and rights. A network asset may be used to pay for network activity; an application token may have a separate role within a protocol. Stablecoins aim to track a reference value under an issuer or protocol arrangement. These labels do not establish equivalent risk or legal rights

Owning a token does not generally mean owning equity in a company or receiving a share of business profits. Read its actual mechanism: circulating supply, issuance schedule, holder concentration, transfer permissions and any redemption promise. Network popularity and token-holder economics are distinct questions

04 / PRODUCT GUIDE

Supply, network activity and value drivers

Supply research separates the maximum or target supply from circulating units and future unlocks. Large holdings, incentive distributions and scheduled releases can influence available supply. Demand research examines transaction use, application activity, accepted payment uses and the costs of using the network

Prices also respond to market liquidity, leverage, news and expectations. Transaction counts can be distorted by incentives or repeated transfers and should not be treated as a standalone valuation method. Compare several indicators and record assumptions rather than assuming every increase in network activity benefits holders

05 / PRODUCT GUIDE

Buying spot assets and placing orders

For a spot purchase, identify the exact asset and supported network, confirm the quote currency and compare the bid and ask. A market order prioritizes execution and can experience slippage. A limit order controls the acceptable price but may remain unfilled. The displayed last price is not necessarily the price at which the next order can execute

After execution, reconcile quantity, fees and the account balance. Decide whether to retain assets at the provider or withdraw through a supported network. Spot ownership should be distinguished from perpetual futures and other contracts that provide price exposure without ownership of the underlying units

06 / PRODUCT GUIDE

Wallets, keys and recovery

A wallet provides a way to manage the credentials that authorize transfers. Self-custody requires a plan for protecting keys and recovery information, validating transaction requests and preventing unauthorized access. A copied secret can allow someone else to transfer assets; a lost secret can leave the owner unable to access them

Third-party custody replaces some key-management tasks with reliance on the provider. Examine withdrawal rights, asset segregation, supported networks and account recovery. Record who can approve transfers and how access is restored after a lost device. A visible account balance alone does not establish that assets will be recoverable during provider failure

07 / PRODUCT GUIDE

24/7 markets and executing an exit

Many crypto venues operate seven days a week, but liquidity can vary by hour and market. Weekend trading can have less depth, and fragmented venues may quote different prices. Maintenance, account restrictions or network congestion can interrupt trading or withdrawals independently

Plan an exit across the full path: asset sale, payment balance, conversion and bank withdrawal. A successful trade does not guarantee immediate cash access. Check withdrawal limits, confirmation requirements, supported banking hours and which entity holds the proceeds at each stage

08 / PRODUCT GUIDE

Fees, transfers and total ownership costs

Separate trading commission from the bid–ask spread and market impact. Network transaction costs, provider withdrawal fees and currency conversion costs can change the economics of small transfers. Confirm which charges are deducted from quantity and which are paid in a different asset

Network choice matters. The same symbol on two networks may involve different contracts or a bridge. Verify the destination network, address and any required memo before a transfer. A small test transaction can identify some operational mistakes but does not validate the recipient’s legal status or future reliability

Worked spot return and break-even example

Assume a hypothetical asset costs $50,000 per unit. Buying 0.1 units costs $5,000 before charges. If it later sells at $55,000, proceeds are $5,500 and the gross gain is $500. With $10 of entry costs and $15 of exit costs, the simplified net gain is $475, about 9.48% of the $5,010 cash outlay

At a selling price of $45,000, proceeds before exit costs are $4,500, and the loss including the same charges is $525. If exit charges stay at $15, break-even proceeds would need to be $5,025, equivalent to $50,250 per unit. This example excludes tax, transfers and holding-related arrangements

010 / PRODUCT GUIDE

Staking, lending and stablecoin arrangements

Spot holding, staking and lending are different activities. Staking can involve validation duties, lockups or penalties. Lending creates borrower and platform exposure. Advertised rewards may be paid in an asset whose market price changes, so a positive token yield can coexist with a negative cash return

For stablecoins, examine backing, issuer obligations, redemption eligibility and reserve disclosures. A target value is not a guarantee. Wrapping or bridging an asset adds dependencies on contracts, custodians or cross-network mechanisms; the original asset’s reputation does not remove those additional risks

011 / PRODUCT GUIDE

Portfolio use, failure scenarios and review

Crypto exposure can be studied within a portfolio using position size, loss capacity, liquidity needs and shared dependencies. Different tokens may still move together during market stress or rely on the same platform, stablecoin or bridge. More token names do not necessarily mean meaningful diversification

Review scenarios including a sharp price fall, withdrawal freeze, compromised key, failed stablecoin redemption or network interruption. Determine what evidence would justify reducing exposure and which actions remain possible during disruption. Keep records of trades and transfers rather than relying only on an application’s current balance

Frequently asked questions

Is Crypto the same as a tokenized security?

No. A tokenized security is tied to defined security-holder rights. Crypto assets have their own mechanisms and may have no company ownership rights

Does 24/7 mean withdrawals always work?

No. Venue operation, network transfers and banking access have separate dependencies

Is a stablecoin equivalent to insured cash?

Do not assume that. Its backing, redemption and protections depend on the issuer and legal structure

Does staking remove price risk?

No. Rewards, lockups and penalties add considerations while the underlying asset can still fall

Does a limit order guarantee execution?

No. It specifies an acceptable price, and may never fill
