Risk Disclosure Statement
Last Updated: July 22, 2026
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Trading prediction markets involves substantial financial risk and is not suitable for every investor. You may lose some or all of your invested principal. Do not trade with capital you cannot afford to lose completely.
1. Copy-Trading Execution Latency & Slippage
Replicating third-party trades involves automated transaction mirroring. Because of the asynchronous nature of blockchain ledgers, there is a delay (latency) between when a source trader submits their order on Polymarket and when your automated copy-trade is built, signed, and filled.
Due to this latency, you may experience significant slippage. The final fill price of your copied trade may be significantly worse than that of the source trader, especially in fast-moving, high-volume markets. In some cases, your order may fail to execute entirely if the market conditions change before your transaction settles.
2. Non-Custodial Smart Contract & Systemic Risks
Minti Markets operates on a non-custodial model. Your funds remain in your secure Polymarket deposit wallet on the Polygon blockchain, and wallet signatures are secured through Web3Auth by MetaMask.
By using the Service, you accept the systemic risks inherent to decentralized networks. These include polygon network congestion, RPC node outages, gas spikes, third-party infrastructure vulnerabilities, and potential security flaws in Polymarket smart contracts. Minti Markets is not responsible for any funds lost due to blockchain network failures or security compromises outside of our direct application control.
3. Past Performance & Leaderboard Tracking Disclaimer
Any historical metrics, ROI, win rates, and trader profiles shown on the Minti Markets leaderboard are for informational purposes only. Past performance is not a guarantee or reliable indicator of future results.
Leaderboard statistics are computed based on public blockchain event logs and APIs, which may be delayed, incomplete, or subject to tracking discrepancies. The traders you follow may change their risk profiles, size allocations, or strategies at any time without notice.
4. Automation Risks & Sizing Caps
Automated copy-trading places orders automatically based on pre-defined criteria. Although Minti Markets offers risk mitigation controls (such as per-trade caps, proportional exit rules, and daily budgets), automated execution means trades are entered without your manual review of each specific bet.
You are solely responsible for setting appropriate parameters. Under extreme market conditions, automated rules may still result in rapid capital depletion.
5. No Financial or Investment Advice
Minti Markets is a software provider and does not offer investment advisory services, financial planning, or customized asset management. No feature on our platform should be construed as an endorsement of a specific trader or prediction outcome. You must perform your own independent research and assess your risk tolerance before utilizing copy trading.
