Risk Disclaimer

Engaging with OLTA products involves a range of risks. By interacting with the protocol, you acknowledge and accept the following non‑exhaustive risk factors.

Engaging with OLTA’s protocol and Structured Index Products involves exposure to various risks inherent in decentralized finance (DeFi) and crypto asset markets. Users must assess their risk tolerance and fully understand the nature of digital assets before interacting with the platform.

1. Market & Price

  • Digital assets are highly volatile and may lose substantial value in short periods.

  • Historical performance of any OLTA index does not guarantee future returns.

2. Liquidity

  • Secondary liquidity for IRT tokens or underlying assets may be limited or unavailable during market stress.

  • Large redemptions can increase slippage or delay execution.

3. Protocol

Interacting with smart contracts carries technical risks, including but not limited to code vulnerabilities, oracle malfunction, and network congestion. Users accept that losses arising from such events are possible and that OLTA provides no insurance or guarantee beyond what is encoded on-chain.

  • Despite undergoing audits and formal reviews, smart contracts may still contain bugs or vulnerabilities. Exploits may lead to a partial or complete loss of funds. Even with one or more tier-1 audit certification, the risk cannot be eliminated.

  • Oracle failures, network congestion, or blockchain reorganizations can disrupt pricing and operations.

  • Laws and regulations around digital assets and DeFi products may change, impacting the availability or legal standing of OLTA services in specific jurisdictions.

  • Users are responsible for ensuring that participation in OLTA complies with local laws, including securities, tax, and KYC/AML regulations.

5. Governance

  • Certain protocol parameters may be modified via governance votes. Outcomes might not align with every holder’s preference.

  • Even if all precautions are in place, governance attacks or low voter participation could negatively affect protocol decisions.

6. Counterparty & Custody

  • OLTA is non‑custodial; users retain control of their wallets. Loss of private keys or signing mistakes can result in irreversible loss.

  • Third‑party custody solutions integrated with OLTA carry their own operational risks.

7. Platform

  • Asset acquisition is conducted through third-party DEXs and CEXs. Even if OLTA prioritizes reputable platforms with deep liquidity and institutional-grade backing, those venues remain subject to technical failure, insolvency, or external attacks.

8. Force Majeure

  • Unforeseen events (e.g., protocol hacks, extreme market crashes, regulatory bans) may impair or suspend protocol functionality.

Accessing OLTA products does not imply a financial advisory relationship, nor does it constitute an offer or solicitation to invest under applicable law. Users are solely responsible for complying with local regulations and are encouraged to consult legal counsel where necessary.


Security & Emergency Measures

OLTA implements a robust risk mitigation framework, including:

  • Audited smart contracts

  • Partially automated monitoring and slippage control

  • Governance thresholds and discretionary exclusion mechanisms

However, residual risks remain such as unexpected smart contract behavior, governance abuse, or data feed failures and could lead to significant fund losses or incorrect protocol behavior.

By using OLTA products, users acknowledge and accept these risks and are advised to do their own research (DYOR) before committing any funds.
