Risk Disclosure

1. This isn’t advice

Nothing you see on RadarCrypto is a personal recommendation to buy, sell or hold a crypto-asset. That includes prices and charts, the risk analysis, trends and Terminal lists, alerts, predictions, news, and whatever other people say in chats, groups and channels.

We don’t know your situation, your goals or how much risk you can take. The decisions are yours; if you need advice, go to an authorized professional.

A token appearing in a list isn’t a recommendation from us. The trends in the chat and the Terminal’s “Impulsados” (Boosted) list are tokens that paid to be promoted on DexScreener; the Terminal’s “Tendencia” (Trending) list is GeckoTerminal’s own trending list, and recommended channels are simply the most followed ones. Also keep in mind that people talking about a token may hold it or be paid to promote it.

2. Crypto-asset risks

• Volatility and total loss. Prices can rise and fall sharply within minutes, and a crypto-asset can lose all its value. Not even stablecoins are safe from losing their peg.
• Liquidity. There may be no one to buy from you, or only at a much worse price. Seeing a price on screen doesn’t mean you can sell at that price.
• No safety net. Crypto-assets aren’t covered by deposit guarantee schemes or investor compensation schemes. If you lose access to your wallet, send to the wrong address or get robbed, there’s usually no way to recover the funds.
• Technology and contracts. Smart contracts and on-chain programs can have bugs or be exploited, and networks can become congested, halt or change their rules.

3. Memecoins and new tokens

Memecoins and newly created tokens are the riskiest part of the market. Anyone can create one in minutes, at almost no cost, and many are created just to take buyers’ money.

• Rug pulls. The creator or early holders dump their tokens or pull the liquidity, and the price collapses within seconds.
• Honeypots. These are tokens you can buy but not sell, or only with abusive sell taxes.
• Mint and freeze authority. If the creator keeps the mint authority, they can create more tokens and crash the value; with the freeze authority, they can lock yours so you can’t move or sell them.
• Holder concentration. If a few wallets hold a large share of the supply, they can crash the price by selling. And several wallets may belong to the same person.
• Low or removable liquidity. With little liquidity, any trade moves the price a lot. If the liquidity isn’t locked or burned, whoever provided it can pull it out at any time.
• Fake copies. Anyone can create a token with the same name, symbol and logo as another one. If you search the Terminal for the symbol of one of the few well-known tokens on our list, we show you its official address first, marked “✓ Oficial” (official); other tokens don’t get that mark. Always check the token address on the project’s official website or social channels.
• Bots and snipers. Some bots buy in the first seconds after a launch and sell as soon as the price rises, sometimes controlled by the creator. By the time you get in, the price may already be inflated.
• The pump.fun curve. Many Solana tokens start life on pump.fun with a bonding curve: the price goes up with every buy and down with every sell, and the token only moves to a DEX pool if the curve completes. Until then, liquidity is very small, a few trades move the price a lot, and many tokens never complete the curve.

4. Limits of our risk analysis and data

RadarCrypto’s risk analysis is automated: a program calculates it, with no human review, using third-party data from sources such as Helius (to query the Solana network), DexScreener, honeypot.is and publicnode. It looks at signals such as liquidity, the token’s authorities, taxes and how much its largest holders own. Prices, charts and lists also come from third parties, such as DexScreener, GeckoTerminal, pump.fun and CoinGecko. All of this has limits:

• it can be incomplete, out of date or wrong, especially if a provider fails or returns bad data;
• it uses data cached for a while so as not to overload providers (up to 5 minutes for the analysis; seconds to minutes for prices), so it may not reflect what just happened;
• it doesn’t catch every trap, and a token can change right after the analysis: the creator can sell or pull the liquidity at any time;
• a good score isn’t a guarantee, and a bad one doesn’t by itself prove it’s a scam.

Use it as one clue among many, and check the information yourself.

5. Trading with the Terminal

The Terminal lets you buy and sell Solana tokens, mostly memecoins, with your own wallet (Phantom or Solflare) through Jupiter. Before you use it, keep the following in mind:

• Slippage. The price can move between the quote and the execution. The slippage you choose (the Terminal offers 1% to 20%, with 5% by default) is how much worse a result you’re willing to accept. The higher it is, the more likely the trade goes through, but at a worse price and with more risk of being sandwiched.
• Price impact. Your own trade moves the price, and in small pools it can move it a lot. The Terminal shows it in amber above 5% and in red above 15%; in that case, the first tap doesn’t trade: it asks you to tap again to confirm.
• Fees. RadarCrypto charges no fee, but the trade pays the Solana network fee, a priority fee (the Terminal requests “high” priority, capped at 0.001 SOL per trade) and the fees of the pools or DEXs on the route and, where applicable, those of Jupiter or your wallet.
• Failed trades. If the transaction reaches the network and fails, nothing moves, but the network fees are still charged. If it isn’t confirmed within about a minute, the Terminal will ask you to check it on Solscan: do that before trying again, or you might buy twice.
• MEV and sandwich attacks. Some bots spot your trade before it’s confirmed, buy right before it and sell right after it, so that you pay more or receive less, up to your slippage limit.
• Congestion. When the network is busy, transactions take longer, expire or fail, and the price may have changed by the time they execute.
• Third-party routes and pools. The route and the transaction are prepared by Jupiter at our server’s request, and they may go through third-party pools and DEXs that can fail, have bugs or be manipulated. Right before the transaction is prepared, a fresh quote is requested, which may differ from the one you saw.
• Irreversibility. A confirmed trade can’t be undone or canceled, by you or by us.
• Availability. The Terminal is still in testing and may fail or be unavailable just when you need it. Your funds stay in your wallet: you can always move them from there or with another app.

6. Wallets and signatures

• Two different keys. Your wallet’s seed phrase (12 or 24 words) gives access to your funds. Your RadarCrypto 12-word key gives access to your chat account. They’re different, and you should never share either of them. Never use a wallet’s seed phrase as your RadarCrypto key, and never type it into any chat, website or form.
• On mobile. If you open RadarCrypto inside the Phantom or Solflare app, you sign in with your RadarCrypto key, not with your wallet’s seed phrase.
• Check what you sign. You don’t need to sign anything to see your balance. In the Terminal, the transaction is prepared by Jupiter, and RadarCrypto doesn’t review it before passing it to your wallet: check the token, the amounts and the balance changes in your wallet before approving, and cancel if anything looks wrong.
• Malicious approvals. A single signature can give someone else permission to move your tokens or drain your wallet. Be wary of any website or person asking you to sign in order to “verify” your wallet, “claim” a reward or “unlock” funds.
• Fake extensions and apps. Only install your wallet from its official website or from official app stores. There are copies that steal your seed phrase.

7. Scams in communities

There are scammers in every crypto community. These are their most common tricks:

• Impersonation and fake support. Anyone can pick whatever name and photo they like and pretend to be RadarCrypto, an admin, a project or someone you know. RadarCrypto has no support inside the app: we only help at info@radarcrypto.fun. Real alerts from “Radarcrypto Bot” only arrive in its own conversation; if the app marks a message as “Aviso falso” (fake alert), it’s an imitation. To check that a contact is who they say they are, compare your safety number in person or through another trusted channel.
• Channels that look official. There are no verified channels on RadarCrypto. The ✓ mark next to a channel’s name only means that its details are signed by its owner and have been checked in your browser, not that the owner is who they claim to be or can be trusted.
• “Guaranteed signals”. No one can guarantee profits. Paid signal groups, gurus and promises of fixed returns are usually scams.
• Pump-and-dump groups. They coordinate buying to inflate a price, and the organizers sell to whoever arrives late. Besides losing money, taking part may be illegal.
• Fake airdrops. Tokens that show up in your wallet out of nowhere and “claim your airdrop” websites are usually traps to get you to sign a transaction that drains your wallet.
• Links in private messages. Don’t open links sent to you privately to “sync”, “validate” or “recover” your wallet. A link having a preview doesn’t mean it’s safe. And be wary of anyone offering to recover lost funds in exchange for a payment.

8. Alerts and notifications

• They aren’t real-time. Price alerts are checked once a minute, and token watches every few minutes. Between two checks, the price can go up and down without triggering any alert.
• They can fail along the way. They depend on third-party data, on our servers and, if the app isn’t open, on your browser’s notifications and its push service (from Google, Apple, Mozilla or Microsoft). If notifications are turned off or your device holds them back, they can arrive late or not at all. And if you don’t open the app within 7 days, pending alerts expire.
• They have limits. You can have up to 20 alerts and 20 watches, there’s a maximum number of notifications per day, and there are waiting periods between repeated notifications. “Above” or “below” price alerts are deleted once they notify you; percentage-change alerts, such as “±5% in 1h”, stay active until you remove them.

Don’t base urgent decisions on them alone: if something matters to you, check it directly.

9. Regulation and taxes

• The rules change. Crypto-asset regulation is recent, changes often and differs from country to country. In the European Union, the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) applies. Some trades or tokens may be restricted or banned where you live: make sure you check.
• No investor protection from us. RadarCrypto isn’t an authorized crypto-asset service provider: it doesn’t hold your funds, execute orders for you or advise you. That’s why you don’t have, with respect to us, the protections that the rules give to clients of an authorized provider.
• Taxes. Buying, selling or swapping crypto-assets, even swapping a memecoin for SOL, can have tax consequences, and some countries require you to declare what you hold. It depends on your country and it’s your responsibility; RadarCrypto doesn’t provide tax reports. If in doubt, consult a tax advisor.
