  • In addition to buying, selling, converting, and trading Cryptocurrencies, you are only permitted to send your coins, tokens, NFTs, or digital assets to another user, another exchange platform, and/or a web3 wallet i.e. MetaMask.
  • Due to the evolving nature of blockchain technology, and blockchain network capacity, if there are any technical issues regarding the use of a blockchain and/or use of a blockchain network this is beyond our control and The Piptle Group reserve the right to cancel transactions you have initiated which are delayed beyond a reasonable time or lapse due to time delays. In such circumstances, you may need to execute the transaction again, or at another time.
