Risk Disclosure
1. Volatility
Cryptocurrency prices are extremely volatile. The exchange rate is locked at the moment you initiate a swap, but the value of BTC/XMR may change significantly before your transaction confirms.
2. Network Risks
Bitcoin and Monero networks may experience congestion, forks, or attacks. We cannot guarantee timely confirmation of your deposit or release of Monero if the network is degraded.
3. Custodial Risk
Although CipherSwap is non‑custodial, the operator's manual confirmation step introduces a small counterparty risk. We maintain a 100% reserve of Monero to cover all outstanding swaps.
4. User Error
Sending the wrong amount, using an incorrect address, or providing an invalid Monero address will result in permanent loss of funds. Always verify all details before sending.
5. Regulatory Risk
The legal status of cryptocurrency swaps varies by jurisdiction. You are solely responsible for any tax obligations or legal consequences arising from your use of CipherSwap.
