Disclaimer: not financial advice

Nothing on CryptoSurge HQ is financial advice. Our articles are general information and education. They don't take account of your circumstances, and nothing on this site is a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any cryptoasset or to use any particular firm or service.

Cryptoassets are high risk

• Prices can fall sharply and quickly. You could lose all the money you put in.
• Most crypto activity in the UK is not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, and you are unlikely to be able to complain to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
• Crypto firms can fail, be hacked or turn out to be fraudulent.
• Transactions on a blockchain usually cannot be reversed.

Check for yourself

Information can go out of date, and rules and tax treatment change. Before making any decision, check the current position with official sources such as the Financial Conduct Authority and GOV.UK, and consider speaking to a regulated financial adviser or a qualified tax adviser.

Links to other sites

We link to other websites as sources. We are not responsible for their content, and a link is not an endorsement of any product.

We will never ask for your keys

CryptoSurge HQ will never contact you to offer investments, ask you to send crypto, or ask for your recovery phrase or private keys. Anyone doing so in our name is a scammer. See our guide to crypto scam warning signs.
