SECURITY & COMPLIANCE

    Crypto & Arbitrage Risk Disclosure

    Digital asset markets are highly volatile and involve a risk of loss, including total loss. This page explains the main risks you should understand before using ZyraCapital's products, and how they relate to our arbitrage strategies, custody setup, and insurance.

    Important notice

    Investing in digital assets and using ZyraCapital's arbitrage strategies involves a high degree of risk. You should be prepared to lose some or all of the capital you allocate. Returns are not guaranteed, and past, simulated, or backtested performance does not predict future results.

    Nothing on this website, in the app, or in any communication from ZyraCapital constitutes investment, legal, tax, or financial advice. You are responsible for your own investment decisions and for seeking independent professional advice where appropriate.

    Key Risk Categories

    Market & volatility risk

    • Digital asset prices can move quickly and unpredictably.
    • Even "market neutral" or arbitrage strategies can incur losses during extreme moves, gaps, or dislocations.
    • Sharp moves may cause trades to fail, be partially filled, or close at worse prices than expected.
    • You may experience drawdowns and negative periods, including over multiple days or weeks.

    Liquidity & execution risk

    • Profits in arbitrage depend on spreads, depth of order books, and execution latency.
    • Thin liquidity or sudden order book changes can cause slippage or missed fills.
    • Large orders may move the market or be filled over multiple price levels.
    • Exchanges may impose limits or controls that affect execution (e.g., throttling, circuit breakers).

    Exchange, counterparty & custody risk

    • ZyraCapital relies on third-party exchanges, liquidity venues, and custody providers.
    • These venues may experience downtime, withdrawal pauses, or other operational issues.
    • There is a risk of loss due to counterparty failure, insolvency, hacking, or fraud at a venue or service provider.
    • Our insurance and custody arrangements are designed to mitigate certain operational risks but do not remove counterparty risk or guarantee full recovery.

    Technology & operational risk

    • Our systems depend on software, APIs, connectivity, and infrastructure that may fail or behave unexpectedly.
    • Bugs, configuration errors, or integration issues may affect your performance or temporarily restrict access.
    • There is a risk of delays in updating balances or displaying performance data.
    • While we follow security and reliability practices, no system is 100% fail-safe.

    Leverage, futures & derivatives risk

    • Some strategies may use derivatives, margin, or futures markets on regulated or major crypto venues.
    • Leverage can amplify both gains and losses and can result in rapid loss of capital.
    • Funding rates, margin calls, or liquidations can materially affect returns.
    • You should not use leveraged strategies if you do not understand these mechanics.

    Regulatory & tax risk

    • Crypto, derivatives, and digital asset rules may change quickly in different jurisdictions.
    • Regulatory changes can restrict access to venues, assets, or products used by ZyraCapital.
    • You are responsible for ensuring that using ZyraCapital is permitted in your jurisdiction.
    • You are responsible for your own tax reporting and obligations relating to any gains or losses.

    Stablecoin, FX & transfer risk

    • Stablecoins and pegged assets may de-peg or fail.
    • Transfers between wallets and exchanges can be delayed, stuck, or sent to the wrong address if details are incorrect.
    • FX conversions (if any) may introduce additional cost and risk.
    • Network congestion or high gas fees can affect the timing and cost of on-chain transfers.

    How these risks apply to ZyraCapital's arbitrage strategies

    What we do

    • Use AI-driven arbitrage engines that aim to exploit pricing differences across exchanges and products.
    • Operate through OS Holdings (DIFC) Ltd and other group entities with defined custody and risk controls.
    • Perform venue due diligence, operational monitoring, and risk management processes.
    • Maintain arrangements such as SOC 2 audits and insurance to help protect against certain operational and custody-related risks (not market risk).

    What you should know

    • Arbitrage is not risk-free and can still generate negative returns.
    • The presence of insurance or audits does not mean all losses are covered.
    • Your capital may be locked into Nodes and Consoles for defined terms, which limits access to funds during that time.
    • You should only allocate funds that you can afford to lose and that match your risk tolerance and time horizon.

    Your responsibilities

    1. 1

      Assess suitability

      Make sure that digital asset and arbitrage strategies are suitable for your objectives, financial position, and experience.

    2. 2

      Understand the products

      Read our product descriptions, fee schedules, lock terms, and risk documentation before allocating capital.

    3. 3

      Diversify

      Avoid concentrating all of your wealth or savings into any single product, strategy, or asset class.

    4. 4

      Use funds you can afford to lose

      Only invest discretionary capital; do not use borrowed funds, emergency savings, or money needed for short-term obligations.

    5. 5

      Seek independent advice

      If you are unsure whether ZyraCapital is suitable for you, consult with a licensed financial adviser, legal counsel, or tax professional.

    How this relates to our insurance and SOC 2

    ZyraCapital's group entities, including OS Holdings (DIFC) Ltd and Zyra Research Group LLC, maintain selected operational safeguards such as SOC 2 Type 2 audits and insurance arranged via Marsh. These measures are focused on operational, custody, and security controls, not on guaranteeing investment performance.

    Insurance policies and audit reports have specific scopes, limits, and exclusions. They do not protect you from market losses, strategy under-performance, or normal trading risk. For more detail, see our Insurance & Custody and SOC 2 Type 2 pages.

    Summary risk disclosure

    Digital asset and arbitrage strategies involve risk of loss, including total loss. Returns are not guaranteed, and past or simulated performance does not predict future results. ZyraCapital does not provide investment, legal, or tax advice. Only invest what you can afford to lose and ensure our products are appropriate for your circumstances.
