Fortuna Risk Disclosure Statement
Effective Date: October 20th - 2025
Last updated: October 20th - 2025

This Risk Disclosure Statement is provided to help you understand the potential risks associated with using Fortuna — a Telegram-based interface for interacting with blockchain prediction markets, wallets, and DeFi tools.
By using Fortuna (“the Service”), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted all of the risks described below.

If you do not agree, you must stop using Fortuna immediately.

1. Overview
Fortuna is a non-custodial Telegram bot that connects users to decentralized prediction markets (such as Polymarket), on-chain wallets, and bridging services (e.g., deBridge).

Fortuna does not operate markets, hold user funds, or guarantee the outcome of any transaction.
All actions executed through Fortuna occur directly on public blockchains such as Polygon and Solana, where transactions are permanent and irreversible.

2. General Market Risks
a. Volatility
Digital assets, prediction market positions, and related tokens are highly volatile. Prices and probabilities can fluctuate rapidly, leading to substantial or total loss of value.

b. Liquidity
Certain markets may have low trading volumes, limited counterparties, or wide bid-ask spreads. You may not be able to enter or exit positions at desired prices.

c. Market Manipulation
Decentralized markets may be susceptible to manipulation, misinformation, or coordinated trading activity by third parties.

3. Technology and Protocol Risks
a. Smart Contract Risk
Smart contracts can contain vulnerabilities or bugs that may be exploited, leading to loss of funds or malfunctioning features. Fortuna cannot reverse or modify on-chain transactions.

b. Network and Infrastructure Risk
Blockchain networks (e.g., Polygon, Solana) may experience congestion, forks, downtime, or attacks that disrupt or delay transactions.

c. Bridge and Swap Risk
Cross-chain transfers and token swaps rely on third-party protocols (e.g., deBridge). These processes carry risks of:

• Transaction failures or stuck transfers

• Smart contract vulnerabilities

• Incorrect token routing
  
  Fortuna does not control or guarantee the success of these operations.

4. Custody and Wallet Risks
Fortuna provides a non-custodial interface.
You are solely responsible for managing your private keys and wallet backups.

• Losing access to your private key or seed phrase means permanent loss of your assets.

• Fortuna cannot recover lost wallets or reset credentials.

• You are responsible for verifying all transaction details (recipient address, token type, network) before confirming.

5. Regulatory and Legal Risks
Prediction markets and digital asset trading are subject to evolving and uncertain regulatory frameworks.

• Fortuna does not provide financial, legal, or tax advice.

• Certain jurisdictions (including the United States and sanctioned regions) may restrict or prohibit participation in prediction markets.

• You are responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction.

Your use of Fortuna could be affected if regulatory actions restrict blockchain access, trading, or bridging activities.

6. Third-Party Service Risks
Fortuna integrates with third-party platforms such as:

• Polymarket (for market creation and trading)

• deBridge (for cross-chain bridging)

• Polygon/Solana networks (for blockchain execution)

Each of these services has its own risks and terms of use.
Fortuna does not control their uptime, fees, policies, or security measures.

7. Token and Reward Risks
Fortuna’s reward systems (e.g., points, cashback, or referral bonuses) are promotional and hold no intrinsic or guaranteed value.

• Rewards may be modified, delayed, or discontinued without notice.

• Fortuna does not guarantee future value, exchangeability, or convertibility of any points or tokens issued.

• Engaging in referral activities does not create an employment, partnership, or agency relationship with Fortuna.

8. User Responsibility
You are fully responsible for:

• Safeguarding your wallet and private keys

• Understanding the risks before trading or bridging assets

• Verifying all transaction details before execution

• Complying with laws applicable in your jurisdiction

Fortuna provides tools and information, but you make the final decision on how and when to trade.

9. No Warranty and No Liability
Fortuna is provided on an “as is” basis without warranties of any kind.
You use Fortuna entirely at your own risk.
Fortuna shall not be liable for:

• Losses arising from blockchain errors, failed transactions, or smart contract bugs

• Loss of tokens, wallet access, or profits

• Downtime, latency, or mispriced market data

• Any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages

10. Acceptance of Risk
By using Fortuna, you confirm that you:

• Understand the inherent risks of decentralized trading and blockchain technology

• Have the necessary knowledge and experience to manage those risks

• Accept full responsibility for any losses that may occur

Summary
Fortuna is a decentralized tool — not a financial service.
When you trade, bridge, or interact through Fortuna, you do so entirely on-chain and at your own risk.
Always double-check your wallet details, trade responsibly, and never invest more than you can afford to lose.
