"CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 67% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work, and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.

"The purchase of real/cryptoassets is an unregulated service and is not covered by any specific European or UK regulatory framework (including MiFID). In the event that cryptoassets are purchased on a real/physical basis and not traded in the form of a CFD you will not benefit from the protections available to clients receiving MiFID regulated investment services, such as access to the Cyprus Investor Compensation Fund (ICF)/the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) and the Financial Ombudsman Service for dispute resolution.
