Nous rappelons aux investisseurs qu’ils ne bénéficient pas des protections habituellement offertes à l’égard des dépôts réglementés lorsqu’ils détiennent des cryptoactifs arrimés à une valeur ou des cryptocontrats auprès d’une plateforme de négociation de cryptoactifs. Il est possible de perdre l’entièreté de votre investissement. Pour en savoir plus sur la réglementation des cryptoactifs : https://ow.ly/FBQN50UsxNr

Investors are reminded that holding value-referenced crypto assets – also known as ‘stablecoins’ – or a crypto contract with a crypto trading platform does not offer the same protections generally afforded to holding a regulated deposit and you may lose all or some of the value.
