Risk Disclosure

2026-08-21

Digital assets involve substantial risk. Read this carefully before using Melmex. Only ever use amounts whose total loss you can afford.

1. Irreversibility

Blockchain transactions are final. A transfer to a wrong or hostile address, on a wrong network, or of a wrong amount cannot be undone by Melmex, by the network, or by anyone else. Address-verification aids in Melmex reduce, but cannot eliminate, this risk.

2. Key loss is asset loss

Melmex is self-custodial: your keys, secured through your login and recovery methods, are the only way to control your assets. If your login methods and recovery details are lost, your assets are permanently unrecoverable. If another person gains control of them, that person controls your assets.

3. Volatility

Digital-asset prices can move violently, gap without warning, and go to zero. Stablecoins can lose their peg. Prices shown in Melmex are estimates from third-party sources and can be delayed or wrong; the value realised in any transaction can differ materially from the value displayed.

4. Network and fee risk

Networks can be congested, halted, forked, or reorganised. Fees fluctuate and are consumed even when a transaction fails. A transaction can remain pending for a long time or fail after fees are spent.

5. Smart-contract and protocol risk

Swaps and token contracts are third-party smart contracts. They can contain defects, be exploited, be upgraded adversely, or behave differently from expectation. Granting a token allowance authorises a contract to move that token up to the approved amount; unlimited allowances carry correspondingly unlimited exposure. Slippage between quote and execution can reduce what you receive; extreme market moves can exceed configured limits.

6. Third-party dependence

Melmex depends on external providers for sign-in and wallet infrastructure, blockchain data, prices, and routing. Their outage, compromise, or withdrawal can make the interface partly or wholly unusable — your assets remain yours on-chain, but acting on them may require other tools.

7. Fraud

The digital-asset ecosystem attracts sophisticated fraud: lookalike addresses planted in your history, counterfeit tokens using well-known names, fake support staff, and phishing sites imitating real applications. Melmex will never ask for your recovery details. Treat every unexpected token, link, and message as hostile until verified.
