Crypto FAQ
Crypto (or crypto assets) are digital assets that use blockchain technology, which is like a shared notebook that everyone can see and safely records every transaction. Unlike regular money, no central bank controls crypto. Some examples with large market capitalization include Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Crypto comes with investment and security risks. Prices can change quickly, and the value of your investment may decrease significantly, potentially becoming worthless. You may also lose money if you sell your assets for less than you originally paid. To help manage custody‑related risks, KOHO partners with Ndax, a regulated Canadian platform and CIRO member. Ndax stores the majority of assets with qualified custodial service providers and maintains certain insurance coverage. For full details on asset storage and applicable insurance coverage, please refer to Ndax’s Custody Disclosure Statement.
For now, only Bitcoin deposits are supported from external wallets or trading platforms outside of KOHO. More coins are on the way. KOHO Crypto currently supports one-way deposits. You can deposit Bitcoin into your account, but transfers out aren’t available yet.
Cold storage means keeping crypto offline and not connected to the internet. It's like keeping valuables in a safe deposit box instead of your wallet because it can reduce exposure to online attacks since the keys are not connected online. This makes it a commonly used method for storing digital assets more securely.
To start trading crypto with KOHO, you need to: • Have a verified KOHO account • Have money in your Spendable balance • Complete your crypto profile with additional personal and financial information • Pass an Appropriateness Questionnaire administered by our partner, Ndax Canadian regulations require this questionnaire to check if crypto trading is a good fit for you. It's a safety measure to make sure you're aware of the risks before trading.
While staking is not yet available on KOHO,crypto staking lets you earn rewards by locking up certain crypto assets to help support a blockchain network. In return, you may receive rewards. Staking depends on the specific coin and platform.
Your crypto is stored securely through Ndax's custody solution. At least 80% of client crypto is held with a qualified custodians, while a small portion remains in secure operational wallets for day-to-day trading. For full details on asset storage practices and custodial insurance coverage, please refer to Ndax’s Custody Disclosure Statement.
