By accessing and trading on SuperVol (binary options products offered through [https://supervol.io] and affiliated platforms), you acknowledge and accept the following risks, and agree to proceed at your own discretion:
SuperVol operates through publicly visible smart contracts, offering transparency and decentralization. However, due to the inherent complexity of smart contract systems, there remains a risk of vulnerabilities, bugs, or unforeseen exploits, which may result in partial or total loss of funds.
Additionally, the platform is subject to network-level limitations. In cases of high blockchain congestion or chain outages, transactions such as deposits, withdrawals, and order submissions may be delayed or fail entirely. Users are strongly advised to take extra caution when placing "1 Hour" options orders with less than 1 minute remaining to expiry, as such transactions carry a higher risk of execution failure.
SuperVol is built on the Soneium network and relies on third-party infrastructure, including the Ethereum & networks and USDC (USDC.e) tokens. While these are widely adopted and supported, the platform’s operations are still subject to any changes, upgrades, or failures of the underlying blockchain networks or token contracts.
As detailed in the relevant product documentation, binary options trading carries significant financial risk. Users understand that if their prediction is incorrect, they may lose 100% of the order amount placed in that round.
Market conditions can be highly volatile and may change rapidly, impacting outcomes. Users are solely responsible for their trading decisions and the potential financial consequences.
Products are settled in stablecoins upon expiry using the following methodology:
A permissionless keeper bot interacts with oracle contracts to fetch the latest available price from the Pyth Network.
The corresponding Pyth price, as returned by the oracle at the time of expiry, is used to determine settlement outcomes.
While the system is designed to function autonomously and efficiently, users acknowledge and accept the following settlement-related risks:
Keeper Execution Delays: If the keeper bot fails to execute promptly after expiry, the settlement of the relevant options may be delayed or may not occur. In such cases, the round may be subject to cancellation, and any positions may be voided at the platform’s discretion.
Network or Oracle Outages: In the event of a disruption to the Ethereum mainnet, supported Layer 2 networks, or the Pyth Price Feed, settlement may not be possible for the affected round. S shall not be held liable for any resulting failure to settle positions under such conditions.
Execution Risk
1 Hour Options: During periods of elevated market activity or high volatility, there may be a delay between order placement and execution. Users may not be able to enter positions at their intended prices due to dynamic pricing and rapid market fluctuations.
1 Minute Options: Due to network latency and high asset price volatility, the actual entry price of a trade may deviate from the intended strike price at the time of order submission. This may result in slippage or unexpected trade outcomes.
