Risks

Using Taco can result in the loss of all funds you commit to it. Read these before you trade or deposit.

Leverage

At 1,000×, a move of about 0.05% against you liquidates the position and forfeits the full margin.

Vault depletion

The Vault is the only counterparty and is not hedged. A run of winning trades can exhaust it. Profit that cannot be paid waits in the settlement queue with no fixed time to payment.

TLP value

Equity per share falls when traders win, including on open positions. It can fall to zero. A rebate returns a small part of a loss and does not make a losing trade profitable.

Redemption delay and suspension

Every redemption waits at least 24 hours, pays the lower of two values, is paid only after queued winners and only from the Vault balance, and is suspended while equity is zero or negative.

Deposit cap and floor pricing

Deposits may be refused or partly refunded under the external cap, and TLP bought below the floor is worth less than the deposit until the pool recovers.

Oracles and prices

Oracle outages pause markets; a wrong price that passes validation is executed. There is no price-deviation circuit breaker.

Smart contracts and bridges

Contracts, the bridge and swap route used for deposits, and the keeper and relayer services can fail or be exploited.

Parameters and operations

Governance can change parameters through the timelock. Roles may pause, delist or process queues, and none is obliged to act within any time.

Jurisdiction

Use may be unlawful where you are. See Eligibility.

Nothing in these docs is investment, legal or tax advice. The Terms of Use govern your use of the protocol.
