# Risk Disclosures

MONOPOLY Protocol involves multiple risks relating to blockchain, digital assets, prediction markets, public data, smart contracts and market liquidity. This section is not an exhaustive list of all risks. Users should independently assess their own risk tolerance before participating.

Mono is the protocol’s sole collateral, settlement and fee token, and its market price may fluctuate significantly. When establishing positions, paying fees or holding Mono, users face both the risk of incorrectly assessing a market outcome and the risk of changes in value caused by Mono’s own price fluctuations. Losing outcome shares may become worthless at final settlement. Insufficient liquidity may also prevent users from opening, closing or transferring positions at expected prices.

Market outcomes depend on previously disclosed data sources, oracle mechanisms and dispute handling rules. Data delays, source conflicts, errors in public information, exceptional events or ambiguous market rules may result in delayed settlement, review, cancellation or other handling under established rules. The risk reserve is used only for expressly defined technical, settlement or dispute handling scenarios. It does not guarantee any user’s principal, market outcomes, trading profits or ordinary trading losses.

RWA data, asset events and public information displayed, processed or integrated by the protocol do not, by themselves, give users ownership, rights to returns, debt claims or other legal rights in any underlying asset. Future features involving enterprise asset digitization, asset service integration or other RWA capabilities may be affected by laws, asset rights structures, data availability, service providers’ capabilities and market conditions.

Smart contracts, oracles, matching systems, blockchain networks, wallets and other infrastructure may be exposed to vulnerabilities, attacks, congestion, service interruptions, failed upgrades or other technical risks. If perpetual markets, margin trading or leverage are introduced, users may also face forced liquidation, insufficient margin, sharp price movements and losses amplified by leverage.

Social content may contain inaccurate information, conflicts of interest, coordinated distribution or sample-selection bias. AI sentiment analysis and event-probability assessments may be affected by incomplete information, data latency and model error. A KOL’s historical judgments, historical returns or reputation do not guarantee future performance. Copy-trading results may differ from the original strategy because of execution delay, price movements, slippage or insufficient liquidity. Tapeout and other external ecosystem integrations may also be affected by cooperation arrangements, product authorization, service availability and changing access conditions.

Users must independently confirm the applicable requirements in their jurisdictions for using the protocol, holding digital assets and participating in relevant markets. MONOPOLY Protocol makes no commitment regarding token prices, trading profits, market liquidity, asset returns or continued market operation, and offers no form of principal protection, guaranteed returns or compensation arrangement.
