Risk Disclosure

1. Summary of risks

Vorepo is an entertainment-trading platform. Prices of Repo Tickets fluctuate based on public GitHub data and trader flow. You can lose the entire amount of every fee you deposit. Past performance of a repository or platform is not indicative of future results. No outcome is promised.

2. Full loss of deposited fees is possible

Repo Ticket prices can fall to the platform floor. If you hold positions when that happens, you may recover only a small fraction of what you paid. Trading fees accumulate with each trade — frequent trading quickly erodes capital.

3. Price volatility

• Repo Tickets can move sharply within a single day under normal conditions
• "Viral" repositories can experience large moves within a week, followed by rapid decay
• Thinly-traded tickers are susceptible to larger moves on smaller order sizes
• Repository inactivity creates downward pressure over time

4. Liquidity risk

Large positions will experience price impact — your own sale moves the price down. Per-account exposure limits are in place but may not prevent meaningful impact.

5. Manipulation risk

vorepo runs multiple layers of fraud-prevention measures. Despite these:

• Coordinated star campaigns on Twitter/Discord may move prices before our detection systems catch them
• Insider trading by repository maintainers is possible — we require disclosure but cannot prevent undisclosed insiders
• Whale concentration risk: single large traders can influence prices of smaller-market tickers
• Scanning for manipulation is never 100% effective; you may be buying into a manipulation you didn't know about

6. Technology risk

• Platform downtime (target 99% uptime but not guaranteed)
• Smart-contract bugs in USDC / Solana — outside our control
• Solana network congestion can delay withdrawals
• Front-end code or browser extensions may be compromised
• API key leakage (your responsibility)

7. Custodial risk

vorepo holds USDC in reserve pools during your active positions. Wallet security measures apply but are not perfect. A platform reserve covers some scenarios but not all. Withdrawals are automated; manual withdrawal is not available during maintenance windows.

8. Regulatory risk

vorepo operates as a closed-loop entertainment platform and is not regulated as a securities exchange, broker-dealer, or money service business. Regulatory frameworks for crypto-settled synthetic instruments are evolving rapidly. Possibilities:

• MiCA (EU) becomes operative July 1, 2026 — we may need to pivot model or exit EU
• National regulators may classify Repo Tickets as securities retrospectively
• Geoblock may be expanded; users may lose access without notice
• Tax treatment of gains/losses is unclear in many jurisdictions

9. Tax risk

You are solely responsible for determining and paying your tax obligations on any gains, fees, or rewards earned through the Platform. Vorepo does not provide tax advice. Consult a qualified tax professional in your jurisdiction.

10. Acknowledgement

By using the Platform, you acknowledge that:

• You have read, understood, and accepted these risks
• You are trading with funds you can afford to lose entirely
• You are not relying on Vorepo, its operators, or any third party for investment or trading advice
• You are using the Platform for entertainment purposes and not as a financial investment
