The scope of disclaimer also includes situations other than those mentioned above. The regulatory regime applicable to blockchain technology, virtual asset provision, and platform application is uncertain, and any changes to regulations or policies may significantly affect the development of the platform and the utility of virtual assets. Failure of virtual asset trading or platform users, companies, or affiliates to comply with laws, rules, and regulations (some of which may not yet exist or may be subject to interpretation and change) may result in various disadvantages for companies and affiliates, including civil penalties and fines. In addition, tax treatment of the acquisition or disposal of virtual assets and stable coins may vary depending on how virtual assets and stable coins are classified under the criteria of securities, assets, currency, or other classifications. Since the tax characterization of virtual assets is currently uncertain, customers may encounter tax-related issues regarding the purchase, acquisition, or disposal of assets (especially considering that income tax will be imposed on gains from the transfer of virtual assets from the second half of 2021 due to the 2020 tax law revision, and various reporting obligations will be imposed in the future). Customers may be subject to tax payments or reporting obligations. Business models using blockchain face uncertain regulatory environments in many countries. In the near future, various jurisdictions may adopt laws, regulations, or guidelines that affect the platform, which may change the value of virtual assets. Such regulations, laws, or guidelines may directly and negatively affect the operation of the platform and may prevent companies and affiliates from complying with them. The impact of future regulatory changes is unpredictable, but such changes can be substantial and can significantly affect the development and growth of the platform, the adoption and utility of virtual assets.

Companies and their affiliates may be required to obtain licenses, permits, and/or approvals (collectively referred to as "regulatory approvals") to conduct virtual asset creation, development, and operation businesses. If companies and their affiliates cannot obtain such permits or if the relevant authorities do not renew or revoke regulatory approvals for any reason, it may adversely affect the business of companies and affiliates. There is no guarantee that authorities will not impose stricter requirements on companies and their affiliates in the future or that companies and their affiliates will be able to adapt to changing regulatory requirements in a timely manner. Such stringent regulations may limit the operational capabilities of companies and their affiliates, and failure to comply with such requirements may result in inadequate measures being taken against companies and their affiliates. Furthermore, if the costs (financial or otherwise) to comply with newly implemented regulations exceed certain criteria, platform maintenance may no longer be commercially feasible, and companies and affiliates may discontinue platform operation and/or virtual asset trading. Moreover, it is impossible to predict how governments or regulatory agencies will implement laws and regulations affecting ledger distribution technology and related applications, including platforms. Companies and their affiliates may have to suspend operations in jurisdictions where obtaining regulatory approvals necessary for operating in that jurisdiction is commercially infeasible or undesirable. In the aforementioned circumstances, it is difficult to completely exclude the possibility that virtual assets will almost or completely lose value. Natural disasters, acts of nature, wars, terrorist attacks, riots, widespread epidemics, and other events beyond the control of companies and affiliates may pose risks. Sales of virtual assets and activities of companies, affiliates, and platforms may be suspended or delayed due to reasons beyond the control of companies and affiliates, such as natural disasters, wars, terrorist attacks, riots, civil unrest, widespread epidemics, and other reasons. These events may also cause uncertainty in the economic outlook of global markets, and there is no guarantee that markets will remain unaffected or that recovery from the global financial crisis will continue. In such cases, the business strategy, operating results, and outlook of companies and affiliates may be significantly affected, and demand and usage of virtual assets and platforms may be significantly affected. Furthermore, if an infectious disease or epidemic occurs in the country where companies, affiliates, and platform participants operate in the future, it may negatively affect market sentiment, which may have a negative impact on platforms and communities.

In addition to anticipated risks, there may be other risks associated with the purchase, holding, and use of virtual assets, including unforeseen fluctuations or risks discussed in this document. It implies that unforeseen fluctuations or risks may occur in a complex manner.
