Information about the Irrevocability of Crypto Asset Transfers

Crypto asset transfers take place on decentralized blockchain networks. Unlike traditional bank transfers, blockchain transfers are inherently irreversible once they have been confirmed a sufficient number of times by the network. This confirmation process ensures the security of transfers.

A block confirmation means that the block containing the transfer has been accepted as part of the blockchain, and new blocks have been mined or validated on top of it. The more confirmations a transfer receives, the more difficult and unlikely it becomes to modify or reverse the transfer.

• Always check the accuracy of the address before transferring.
• Ensure that the network (blockchain) you use for the transfer is correct and that both the sending and receiving wallet addresses operate on the same blockchain.
• Include all required identification details with the transfer.

Transferring crypto assets to the wrong address, on the wrong network (blockchain), or with incomplete information may result in the permanent loss of the transferred assets.

The link below will take you to a table describing the confirmation requirements and special considerations for transferrable crypto assets supported by Kvarn X. Please note that the times listed are estimates and may vary significantly depending on network congestion and transaction fees.

Transferring Crypto Assets Into the Service

Crypto asset transfers are inherently irreversible, so always ensure before making a transfer that you are using the correct address and the correct network supported by the Kvarn X service, and that you have included all necessary identification information.

For example, you cannot transfer ether to a bitcoin address or vice versa. If you are making a crypto asset transfer for the first time or transferring a larger amount, we always recommend making a test transfer first to ensure the receiving address is functional.

How to Transfer Crypto Assets into the Kvarn X Service

1. Go to the "Transfer" tab

2. Click "Crypto"

3. Select "Deposit"

4. Choose the crypto asset you wish to deposit

5. Select the network for the deposit (if multiple options are available)

6. Copy the wallet address and any additional required information (Tag/Memo, if applicable)

Please note that there are blockchain-specific differences in transfer processing times. Transfers will be recorded in your Kvarn X portfolio once they have received the required confirmations on the blockchain. You can view transfers under the "Transactions" tab.

Also note that it is important to save all necessary information related to the transfer (transaction details, acquisition costs, and other required data) for tax reporting purposes. The user is personally responsible for reporting capital gains and losses on cryptocurrencies to the tax authorities.

In the Kvarn X service, you can set the acquisition cost for the crypto assets you transfer in at the time of transfer. This enables up-to-date portfolio tracking, accurate profit and loss calculation and reporting, and the continuity of the transaction record. Note: For the record to remain accurate, acquisition costs must be entered correctly for each original acquisition lot.

Transferring Crypto Assets Out of the Service

You can transfer bitcoin and ether from the Kvarn X service to an external crypto asset address. The maximum amounts for single transfers through the platform are 0.5 BTC and 5 ETH. If you wish to transfer larger amounts or other crypto assets out of the service, please contact our customer service via a support request through the platform.

The secure storage and transfer of crypto assets is important to us. For this reason, all addresses used for withdrawals in the Kvarn X service are verified for security reasons.

How to Verify a Wallet Address

1. Go to the "Transfer" tab

2. Click "Crypto"

3. Select "Withdraw"

4. Click "Add Wallet"

5. From the menu, choose the crypto asset for which you want to verify an address (if multiple networks)

6. Enter the wallet address and any additional information (Tag/Memo)

7. Enter any additional information /Tag/Memo

8. Click "Confirm"

Once the address is verified, it will appear in the "Wallet Addresses" section with the status "Approved." Address verification for withdrawals takes up to 24 hours on business days.

The service supports one verified address per crypto asset at a time. If you want to change the receiving address, please contact customer service via a support request through the platform.

When verifying wallet addresses, carefully check that the wallet addresses you use for transfers (sending and receiving wallet) operate on the same network (blockchain). Transferring a crypto asset to the wrong address, on the wrong network (blockchain), or with incomplete information may result in permanent loss of the transferred assets. Some crypto assets, such as XLM and XRP, require a unique identifier (Tag/Memo) in addition to the address when making transfers, which must be saved when verifying the withdrawal address (see step 7 above).

How to Transfer Crypto Assets Out of the Kvarn X Service

1. Go to the "Transfer" tab

2. Click "Crypto"

3. Select "Withdraw"

4. From the menu, choose the crypto asset to transfer out

5. Check from the menu that the wallet address, network, and any additional information used in the transfer are correct

6. Enter the amount to be transferred

7. Click "Confirm". Note: By clicking confirm, you accept that the transfer will be executed with the visible details and you initiate an irreversible transfer. More information about transfer times and the irrevocability of transfers can be found here.

Processing Times for Crypto Asset Transfers

Transfer orders for crypto assets are received automatically and processed on business days (Monday–Friday), excluding public holidays as follows:

Orders received before 15:00 (EET) are processed on the same business day.

Orders received after 15:00 (EET) are processed by the next business day at the latest.

Fees

Blockchain-specific transfer fees apply to crypto asset transfers. In the withdrawal window, you will see the estimated transfer fee for each crypto asset at the time of transfer, which is deducted from the amount being transferred, except for ERC20 tokens, where the transfer fee is added to the transferred amount. Note: When withdrawing ERC20 tokens from the Kvarn X service, the transfer fee is charged in euros. Therefore, please ensure that you have enough euros in your portfolio to cover the transfer fee. More information on fees can be found in the Pricing tab.
Orders can be placed in the "Trading" and "Holdings" tabs. On the Trading tab you can see the buy and sell prices of all the crypto assets invested in real time and access more detailed information about the assets by clicking on the "Details" button. The detailed information shows the purchase values and market values of all the assets in the portfolio, as well as the historical price data.

You login and authenticate to the service using your personal bank ID authentication. For customers with Nordic bank IDs, bank ID authentication is the recommended method of authentication. If an alternative authentication method with username and password is used, the user will also be asked to enable two-factor authentication (2FA). Two-factor authentication requires the use of a dedicated application, such as Google Authenticator. The application can be downloaded from Apple app store or Google Play. The first time you log in to Kvarn X after the initial authentication and registration process, you will be asked to enable two-factor authentication.
Financial service providers are legally obliged to identify and know their customers. During your onboarding process, we will ask you some personal information and update your information regularly. Among other things, we will ask you about your nationality, tax residency and the origin of the funds used for investing. The purpose of these questions is to ensure that your transactions are safe and secure, to prevent abuse and to comply with the requirements of anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing regulations. Although the customer due diligence questions are based on a legal obligation, they are also first and foremost in the customer's interest.

In your own online bank, the "New payment" function is used to make a payment to Kvarn X according to the information in the window

● Go to "Transactions" and click on the transfer event ("Transfer in"), for which you want to set the acquisition price. You can search for transfers from different time periods by changing the dates in the top right corner

● In the view, you can see the details of the batch that has been transferred

● Update the acquisition price under "Price" in the "Details" section. Instead of the acquisition price, the deemed acquisition cost in accordance with the instructions of the tax authorities can be used (Finnish tax resident only). If the entered acquisition price data needs to be corrected afterwards, the data can be updated again
Market order
A market order is a command to buy or sell an asset at the price currently available on the market, and is the most basic type of trading order, but in some cases also the most risky type of order. Market orders are designed to be executed immediately, but they do not guarantee a price. A market buy order will execute at the nearest ask price (what someone is willing to sell for) and a market sell order will execute at the nearest bid price (what someone is willing to buy for).

Limit order
A limit order is a command to buy or sell an asset at a specific price — or better if possible. A limit buy order is executed at the limit price (maximum price) or lower, while a limit sell order is executed at the limit price (minimum price) or higher. However, limit orders are not guaranteed to execute. A limit order will only be filled if the market price of the asset reaches the limit price. Although limit orders don't guarantee that your order will be fulfilled, they are useful because they can ensure that you do not pay more (buy) or receive less (sell) than a specific set price.

Note: When placing limit buy orders the limit price must be below the current market price and in limit sell orders the limit price must be above the current market price. If the limit price you submit is not consistent with these conventions, the order will be executed immediately as a market order.
