Risk Disclosure

Awaiting legal review. This page was published on 14 November 2026 and has not yet been reviewed by a lawyer. It describes ArcheCrypto as it is today: a website and a paper-money app in development. It will be revised before any real-money service is offered.

ArcheCrypto’s current app is a simulator, so nothing in it can lose you real money. This page explains what a simulator does not show you, and the risks you would face with real crypto and real leverage. Read it before you use any crypto trading product, ours or anyone else’s.

What the simulator leaves out

  • Paper results are not real results. In a real market your order can move the price, fill late or fill only in part, and it costs more in fees and funding than a simulation suggests.
  • Real money feels different. Decisions that are easy with paper money are hard when the money is yours.
  • Practice records can be lost. The app is in development and its data lives on your device.

Crypto prices

  • Prices can move by a large percentage in minutes, at any hour of any day. These markets never close.
  • A coin can lose most or all of its value and never recover.
  • Prices differ between exchanges, and trading can dry up or stop exactly when you most want to trade.

Leverage

Leverage means controlling a position that is larger than the money you put in. It multiplies losses exactly as it multiplies gains.

  • Small moves, total loss. At 10x leverage, a move of about 10% against you is enough to lose all the money in the position. At 50x, about 2% is enough.
  • Liquidation. When losses have used up almost all of your margin, the position is closed automatically, at whatever price the market gives, and the margin is gone.
  • Funding. Perpetual futures charge or pay a funding fee several times a day. Over a long hold it adds up.
  • Fees. Fees are charged on the full size of the position, not on your margin, so high leverage means high fees compared with the money you put in.

You can lose everything you put into a leveraged position, and you can lose it quickly.

Holding your own keys

  • With a self-custody wallet, you alone hold the keys. If you lose your recovery phrase and your password, the coins are gone. Nobody can reset them.
  • Anyone who learns your recovery phrase can take everything. We will never ask for it.
  • Crypto transfers cannot be reversed. A payment sent to a wrong address is lost.
  • Phones and computers get lost, break, and get infected with malicious software.

Technology

  • Software has bugs. Networks get congested, network fees jump, and services go offline.
  • A blockchain can change its rules or split in two.

Law and regulation

  • Crypto rules differ from country to country, and they are changing. Leveraged crypto products are restricted or banned for ordinary customers in a number of countries.
  • Crypto holdings are not bank deposits and are not covered by deposit insurance.
  • You are responsible for your own taxes.

What ArcheCrypto is not

ArcheCrypto is not a bank, a broker or a registered exchange, and nothing on this website or in the app is advice. If you are unsure whether a product is right for you, speak to a qualified adviser first.
