Introduction
Blockchain and crypto-assets (cryptocurrencies, tokens, NFTs) are attracting growing interest from investors and businesses alike.
While these technologies offer many opportunities, they also entail major risks. It is essential that customers understand these risks before committing to transactions or investments in crypto-assets.
→ Chez Coinhousewe’re committed to making this new asset class accessible to everyone, but also to ensuring that everyone is fully aware of the risks associated with it.
Coinhouse offers Investor and Private Management offers to help you understand and invest in crypto-assets.
Asset volatility
Crypto-assets are often highly volatile.
Their value can fluctuate significantly in a very short space of time, resulting in substantial potential or actual losses: risk of total or partial capital loss.
Investors need to be aware of this volatility and be prepared to deal with this uncertainty.
→ To limit this risk, it is possible to position all or part of one’s portfolio in electronic money tokens (or Stablecoins). Ce sont des crypto-actifs dont l’objectif est de répliquer la valeur d’une monnaie fiduciaire (dollar, euro, etc.).
Illiquidity risk
Illiquidity refers to the difficulty or impossibility of selling or exchanging an asset at or near its market value within a reasonable time. This generally occurs when there is insufficient demand for the asset, or when the available supply far exceeds demand.
The consequences of illiquidity in crypto-assets can be particularly damaging for investors:
– Difficulty in converting to cash An investor wishing to sell an illiquid asset may be forced to wait for market conditions to improve, or to sell at a much lower price than expected, resulting in a significant loss of value.
– Price deviations In illiquid markets, large transactions can lead to significant price fluctuations. For example, an investor wishing to sell a large quantity of an illiquid asset could see the price fall dramatically during the sale, significantly reducing returns.
– Delayed monetization of earnings Even when a digital asset is appreciating strongly, lack of liquidity can prevent an investor from realizing profits. This delay can be exacerbated if the market enters a period of decline before the asset can be sold.
– Vulnerability to market volatility Iliquid assets are particularly sensitive to market shocks. In the event of a sudden downturn or loss of confidence in the asset or the sector in general, it can become even harder to find buyers, and investors could find themselves stuck with positions they can’t liquidate.
Illiquidity is a major risk for investors in crypto-assets, especially for those holding lesser-known crypto-assets.

Safety risks
The security risks associated with crypto-assets are real and must be taken seriously by all users.
Protecting crypto-assets requires a combination of best practices in terms of portfolio management and platform use (activation of strong authentication to access one’s Crypto account, keeping means of access to one’s Wallet strictly confidential)), as well as constant vigilance in the face of emerging threats.

Scams and Fraud
The crypto-asset sector is unfortunately fertile ground for various forms of scams and fraud. The relative newness of these technologies, combined with a still-developing regulatory environment, attracts scammers looking to exploit investors’ gullibility or lack of experience. Understanding the most common types of scams and knowing how to guard against them is essential for any user of blockchain and crypto-assets.
Investors and users need to be aware of these risks, and take precautionary measures to avoid falling into the traps of scammers. By being vigilant, adopting a cautious approach, and keeping abreast of the latest developments in the ecosystem, it is possible to reduce these risks.
