4. Information only
The content on the Website, including articles in our Learn section, glossary entries and descriptions of our services, is provided for general information and education only.
Nothing on the Website:

We take care to keep the content accurate. However, digital asset markets, regulation and accounting standards change, and content may become out of date.

Any such institution contracts with you directly under its own terms. We are not responsible for the acts, omissions, solvency or performance of any third-party institution, and the availability of their services depends on your jurisdiction and their own onboarding decisions.
