Disclaimer

Important information about the limitations and intended use of Crypto404.

Effective Date: February 1, 2026

Informational Purposes Only

Crypto404 is provided strictly for informational and educational purposes. The scan results, risk assessments, and all data presented by this Service are not intended to be, and should not be construed as, financial advice, investment advice, legal advice, or any other form of professional guidance.

Not Financial Advice

Crypto404 does not provide financial, investment, or trading advice.

  • Do not make financial decisions based solely on Crypto404 scan results
  • A "safe" or "low risk" rating is not a guarantee that an address is legitimate or that any transaction will be secure
  • A "high risk" or "critical" rating does not necessarily mean an address is engaged in illegal activity
  • Always conduct your own due diligence and consult qualified professionals before making financial decisions

No Guarantees on Accuracy

While we strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information, we make no representations or warranties regarding:

  • Completeness: Our databases may not contain all known malicious addresses. New threats emerge constantly, and there may be a delay before they appear in our systems.
  • Accuracy: Scan results are based on available data at the time of the scan. False positives and false negatives can and do occur.
  • Timeliness: Threat data is cached and may not reflect the most current state. The OFAC SDN list is cached for up to 24 hours; other data sources have their own refresh intervals.
  • Reliability: The Service may experience downtime, errors, or interruptions. Third-party data sources may be temporarily unavailable.

Third-Party Data Sources

Crypto404 aggregates data from multiple third-party sources, including:

OFAC SDN List

Maintained by the U.S. Department of the Treasury. We access a public mirror of this data. We are not affiliated with the U.S. government and make no claims about the completeness or accuracy of the mirrored data.

ChainAbuse

A crowdsourced database of scam reports. Reports are submitted by community members and may not be verified. The presence or absence of reports on ChainAbuse does not definitively establish whether an address is malicious.

Community Reports

User-submitted reports on our platform are manually reviewed but may contain inaccuracies. We cannot independently verify all claims made in community reports.

We do not control and are not responsible for the accuracy, completeness, or availability of third-party data. Each third-party source has its own terms, policies, and limitations.

User Responsibility

By using Crypto404, you acknowledge and accept that:

  • You are solely responsible for your own financial decisions and actions
  • You use the Service at your own risk
  • You are responsible for safeguarding your own private keys and seed phrases
  • Submitting private keys or seed phrases to any online service carries inherent risk
  • You should independently verify information before acting on it
  • Cryptocurrency transactions are irreversible; exercise caution at all times

Risk Acknowledgment

Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology involve significant risks, including but not limited to:

  • Total loss of funds due to scams, hacks, or protocol failures
  • Regulatory changes that may affect the legality or accessibility of certain activities
  • Smart contract vulnerabilities and exploits
  • Social engineering and phishing attacks
  • Volatile market conditions and price fluctuations

Crypto404 does not and cannot protect you from all of these risks. Our scans are one tool among many that you should use as part of a comprehensive security approach.

Limitation of Liability

Under no circumstances shall Crypto404, its operators, contributors, or affiliates be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages arising out of or in connection with your use of the Service, including but not limited to loss of cryptocurrency, loss of data, loss of profits, or any other intangible losses, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
