NOTICE: By the Florida Office of Financial Regulation

By granting Skrill a license, the Florida Office Of Financial Regulation is not endorsing the use of digital or virtual currencies.

• U.S. currency is legal tender backed by the U.S. government.

• Digital and virtual currencies are not issued or backed by the U.S. government, or related in any way to U.S. currency, and have fewer regulatory protections.

• The value of digital and virtual currencies is derived from supply and demand in the global marketplace which can rise or fall independently of any fiat (government) currency.

• Holding digital and virtual currencies carries exchange rate and other types of risk.

• Potential users of digital or virtual currencies, including but not limited to Bitcoin, should be forewarned of a possible financial loss at the time that such currencies are exchanged for fiat currency due to an unfavorable exchange rate. A favorable exchange rate at the time of exchange can result in a tax liability. Please consult your tax advisor regarding any tax consequences associated with your holding or use of digital or virtual currencies.
