Warning: The value of your virtual currencies can rise or fall sharply, and your initial investment may be lost completely; virtual currencies are not covered by the guarantee funds that cover bank deposits; there is no legal mechanism on the virtual currencies market to prevent market manipulation or insider dealing; virtual currencies depend entirely on a specific computer technology and infrastructure, which in certain cases may be very recent and not yet adequately tested; if one loses the identification code or password giving access to the virtual wallet in which the virtual currency is stored, the currency held therein will be irretrievably lost; virtual currencies are currently accepted as a means of payment to a limited extent, and in most countries there is no legal obligation to accept them; for more information about the risks associated with an investment in virtual currencies, we advise you to read the Wikifin page What is a cryptocurrency? | Wikifin.

As part of Kraken’s regulatory compliance effort, we are required to perform a suitability assessment for each and every one of our clients’ trades, and inform them if we believe a trade is not suitable for them. We base our assessment on each client’s profile, their answers to certain investment-related questions, as well as their trading behavior and history.

How does this impact me?

If we determine that an order you place is not suitable for you, we will notify you with an additional pop-up, prompting you to review your trade. We strongly recommend that you carefully consider whether you still want to proceed with the trade. If you would like to proceed, you may do so by selecting the Continue anyway button on the popup. If you decide you want to forgo the trade, simply click the Cancel button.

If you have any further questions, feel free to contact our Support team.
