Our Special Treatment Policy is designed to address specific situations where enhanced measures are necessary to protect the integrity of our platform and ensure a level playing field for all users. This policy outlines the criteria and procedures for placing assets, accounts, or projects under special treatment.

Criteria for Special Treatment

Assets, accounts, or projects may be placed under special treatment if they meet one or more of the following criteria:

1. Abnormal Trading Activity

  • Unusual trading volume or price movements that cannot be explained by market conditions.
  • Significant discrepancies between market value and trading volume.

2. Security Concerns

  • Reports of security vulnerabilities or breaches that could impact the safety of user funds.
  • Evidence of hacking, fraud, or other malicious activities.

3. Regulatory Issues

  • Non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
  • Regulatory actions or investigations that may affect the asset or project.

4. Operational Concerns

  • Inconsistencies in project disclosures or failure to provide required information.
  • Delays or issues in project development or deployment that affect its viability.

5. Market Manipulation

Enhanced Monitoring

  • Increased Scrutiny: Transactions and activities related to the asset, account, or project will be subject to enhanced monitoring.

Restrictions

  • Trading Restrictions: Trading of the affected asset may be temporarily suspended or restricted.
  • Account Limitations: Accounts associated with the special treatment status may be subject to additional verification requirements or limitations on certain activities.

Lifting of Special Treatment

The special treatment status may be lifted if the issues that led to the designation are resolved. This decision will be based on a thorough review and assessment of the situation. Relevant parties will be notified, and a public announcement will be made to inform the community.
