Subject Matter
This Agreement has as its subject matter the provision to the User of the Services referred to in the following Article 4 through the opening of the Profile.
In order to make use of the Services, the User shall access their reserved area on the Platform, after completing the Registration, Verification and Activation process referred to in Article 4 of this document. During the Registration phase, the User will receive a personal username and password, which are the Credentials that must always be used to access the Services, regardless of the Platform used (i.e. any of the Sites or the Mobile Application).
The Services are provided according to a structured and documented operating model, consistent with the provisions of MiCAR, the technical and functional architecture of which is described in the Company’s internal documentation. In particular:
- the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR (Journey “Base”) is accessible to all verified Users;
- the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR (Journey “Pro”) is accessible to Users who use the Pro mode on the Platform;
- the Custody and Administration Service under Article 75 of MiCAR is a transversal infrastructure common to both operating models;
- the Platform neither organises nor operates a multilateral trading system pursuant to Article 76 of MiCAR; no internal multilateral order book nor matching mechanism between orders of different clients is implemented.
The amounts transferred and/or deposited, whether representing Fiat Currencies or Crypto-assets, entail for Young Platform an obligation to return the final value as reported on the Platform and not an obligation to return the fiat currency or the Crypto-asset transferred to the Platform itself. The effectiveness of this contract is therefore subject to the User making at least one deposit into the Wallet and to the correct completion of what is provided for in the following Article 4.
Third-party services are not governed by these Terms and Conditions. These contractual conditions are available on the Platform, together with any other information on the Services required by the applicable legislation.
Registration, Confirmation, Verification and Activation
4.1 Registration
In order to access the Services, it is necessary to complete the Registration process on the Application, thus creating one’s own Profile. To this end, during Registration, when filling in the dedicated Form, the User will be required to enter some or all of the following data:
- personal identification data;
- current and verifiable residential address;
- copy of identity documents (tax code and identity card/passport or driving licence);
- company identification data / registered office / VAT number / company email address;
- identification data of the legal representative and tax code;
- invoicing data and certified email address (PEC);
- proof of residence and/or historical residence certificate;
- mobile phone number of the account holder;
- commercial register extract (visura camerale) in the case of a legal entity;
- politically exposed person and/or family member of politically exposed persons (“PEP”);
- employment status, income and source of funds;
- Credentials, that is, email and password in order to access the personal/corporate profile.
Users shall be solely responsible for the truthfulness and updating of such information for the entire duration of the relationship with Young Platform. By Registering for the Service, the User accepts that Young Platform send information by email and/or SMS to facilitate the use of the Service.
With regard to the Registration by legal entities, the aforementioned data will be requested from the legal representative, with the Company reserving the right to request further information from the latter, including through communications by email and/or completion of ad hoc forms.
4.2 Activation
The Company reserves the right to refuse the Registration of a User if it is reasonable to assume that they will not comply with the Terms and Conditions and/or the Annexes or, in any event, if irregularities and/or inconsistencies are identified during the Registration phase preceding the verification, as defined below. If no formal irregularities and/or inconsistencies are identified at the end of the Registration phase, Young Platform will send the User a written communication by email confirming the completion of the Registration (the “Confirmation Communication”). Unless a different qualification is formally requested by the User and accepted by the Company at the end of a specific documentary verification of the requirements provided for by the applicable legislation, the User is classified as a retail client and benefits from the highest level of protection provided for by MiCAR. Access to the Journey “Pro” and to the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR is subject to the suitability assessment provided for by the Company and does not in itself determine the qualification of the User as a professional client. The Confirmation Communication will contain a link that the User must click to confirm their email, thus obtaining access to the Platforms in order to proceed with the use of the connected Services.
It is understood that the Company, prior to the Confirmation Communication, reserves the right to decide at its sole discretion whether to definitively accept and, therefore, authorise the contractual relationship with the applicant only following the positive outcome of the verification of the truthfulness and correctness of the data entered upon Registration, that is the KYC procedure (the “Verification”). Young Platform, at the end of the Verification phase, will therefore communicate to the User the activation of the Services through the Confirmation Communication (the “Activation”). It is understood that the foregoing may be subject to customisations if access is made through Authorised Distributors.
4.3 Credentials
The Credentials created by the User are valid for access to the Young Platform and Young Platform Pro Platforms. It is understood that the foregoing may be subject to customisations if access is made through Authorised Distributors.
The Credentials chosen by the User upon Registration must always be used by the User to access the Platforms and to use the Services. The User is required to keep their Credentials secret and secure and may not, under any circumstances, access the Profile of third parties.
The User may not communicate their Credentials to third parties and is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the information relating to their Profile, in particular of the Credentials. The parties mutually acknowledge that the User has the exclusive responsibility to manage any data or, in any case, any request from Young Platform, or mechanism, or validation tool, or double authentication, or similar, aimed at enabling the remote identification of the User, and aimed at preventing any form of abusive access to the account.
In the event of compromise of the Credentials, the User is required to promptly notify Young Platform by writing to [email protected], in order to be able to suspend the Account and prevent unauthorised transactions.
As a consequence, the User undertakes to bear any risk, prejudice, negligence, error, damage, cost or burden, none excluded, that Young Platform may suffer due to inadequate custody and preservation, by the User, of the Credentials due to improper or negligent use of any data, or in any case, of any request from Young Platform or mechanism or validation tool or double authentication or similar.
Users further undertake to promptly update the data provided upon Registration in the event of subsequent changes and variations. It is understood that Young Platform may not be held liable for any loss of Crypto-assets and/or Fiat Currencies directly or indirectly caused by the loss and/or sharing with third parties of the Credentials.
4.4 Rules of Conduct and Commitments of the Parties
Upon Activation of the Services, both the Company and the User, within their respective remits (always taking into account whether they are a natural or legal person), undertake to:
- adopt any and all security measures required by law that are suitable to ensure the protection and security, physical and logical, of their own documents, data and/or information and, in general, of their own IT system;
- operate in compliance with the legal provisions on workplace safety (Legislative Decree 81/08 as amended and supplemented), on personal data protection (Legislative Decree 196/03 as amended and supplemented, as well as EU Regulation 2016/679 – hereinafter “GDPR”), on civil and criminal protection of programs, data, IT systems, electronic communications and databases, and to oversee the conduct of their appointees;
- carry out any communications to the competent tax and administrative authorities that may be required in consideration of the digital storage of the documents indicated related to or connected with the Services and this document;
- comply with and contribute to the compliance with all European regulatory obligations on the reporting of activities of suspected money laundering and/or terrorist financing.
The use of the Service is permitted exclusively to the registered User. The User undertakes not to assign their Credentials to third parties and shall be responsible for the secrecy of the same. In this regard, Young Platform may not be held liable for any damages and/or losses caused by the loss and/or careless sharing of the Credentials with unauthorised third parties. In this regard, it is recalled that the Young Platform team may never request a copy of the Credentials, with particular regard to the password. Under no circumstances shall we contact clients by telephone to carry out transactions on their behalf and/or to recommend investments of any kind. Users are invited to report any non-compliant behaviour.
Young Platform Services and Use of the Platforms
5.1 Elements of the Services
The Services are offered to the User through the Platform, in Italian and may also be available in English and French. In case of divergence between the language versions, the Italian version prevails. The User undertakes to periodically check the instructions and regulations relating to the use of the Platforms and of the Services, as published on the website youngplatform.com, and accepts as of now any technical updates that will be adopted unilaterally by Young Platform and made available on the Sites.
5.2 Platform Architecture and Operating Model
The Platform is configured as a unitary technological infrastructure, organised in distinct but coordinated functional modules, designed to support in a coherent and traceable manner the crypto-asset Services referred to in Articles 75, 77 and 78 of MiCAR. The unitary nature of the technological environment does not entail any legal commingling between the services provided. Each order is qualified ex ante according to the Journey used by the client and the related operating module associated with it, with unique identification of the role assumed by the Company:
- principal in the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR (Journey “Base”): the Company acts as contractual counterparty of the client, determines the price through the Pricing Engine and assumes the market risk until any hedging;
- agent in the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR (Journey “Pro”): the Company acts as intermediary and transmits the order to an External Execution Venue selected according to the Execution Policy, without assuming market risk.
No automatic transformation of an order qualified as bilateral under Article 77 of MiCAR into an order of execution on behalf under Article 78 of MiCAR, or vice versa, is permitted without a new explicit instruction of the client prior to Order Finality. The logical separation between the modules is ensured by the application distinction between the Pricing Engine (activated exclusively in the Journey Base) and the Smart Order Router (activated exclusively in the Journey Pro).
5.3 Description of the Services
With regard to the individual Tools, the User must preventively accept the terms and conditions in order to proceed with their activation, where required.

5.4 Bilateral Exchange Service (Article 77 MiCAR) – Journey “Base”
In the Bilateral Exchange Service, the Company directly concludes with the client a contract of purchase or sale of crypto-assets, acting as contractual counterparty (principal). The Company therefore operates on its own account and acts itself as economic counterparty of the client’s operation, assuming the exposure to market risk that arises until any hedging management. The structure of the service is based on the following essential elements:
- determination of the price by means of the Pricing Engine, according to an objective methodology, pre-defined and formalised in internal documentation approved by the competent bodies of the Company. The methodology is based on the acquisition and aggregation of market data from external sources selected according to documented criteria (liquidity, operational continuity, technical reliability, average volumes). The sources and the methodology are described in the dedicated information document made available on the Site pursuant to Article 77(2) of MiCAR;
- presentation to the client of a firm quote valid for a given period of time, with indication of the Total Consideration (overall price including the commercial Spread applied by the Company and any explicit fees);
- mandatory Order Summary screen prior to the final confirmation, containing: asset and quantity, total applicable price (Total Consideration), any fees, express indication that the contractual counterparty is the Company, residual duration of the validity of the quote, moment of Order Finality;
- Order Finality at the moment of acceptance of the quote within the validity period: from such moment the contract is concluded, the Company assumes the legal obligation to execute the operation at the price displayed and the client’s resources are blocked in the custody system; the Internal Ledger is updated consistently with the variation of the positions;
- updating of the Internal Ledger and settlement of the operation, in ledger-based mode (Option A) or by means of on-chain delivery to a Pre-registered External Address previously chosen by the client (Option B).
Any hedging operation carried out by the Company with Liquidity Providers or external venues is legally and logically autonomous from the contract concluded with the client, does not modify the price applied to the client and does not affect the qualification of the service as a bilateral exchange. The client retains the option to compare the price quoted with the conditions available on other venues or market operators prior to acceptance.
Pursuant to Article 77(4) of MiCAR, the price applied to the client is the one accepted at Order Finality; the Pricing Engine may temporarily suspend the generation of new quotes for specific assets in the presence of abnormal market conditions, unavailability of the price sources or exceeding of the internal risk thresholds.
5.5 Execution of Orders on Behalf of Clients Service (Article 78 MiCAR) – Journey “Pro”
In the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service, the Company acts as intermediary (agent) and does not assume the role of contractual counterparty of the client nor the market risk. The service is structured in the following phases:
- receipt and qualification of the order as an operation under Article 78 of MiCAR, with preliminary blocking of the resources required in the client’s accounting position in the Internal Ledger; the resources remain blocked for the entire duration of the execution process and are automatically re-credited in case of non-execution;
- selection of the External Execution Venue through the Smart Order Router, in accordance with the criteria established in the Execution Policy (best execution factors: price, total costs, speed, likelihood of execution and settlement, size and nature of the order); the eligible venues are preventively assessed, and their list is defined in coherence with the Execution Policy;
- transmission of the order to the external venue through secure API channels; the identifier of the order, the venue selected and the transmission timestamps are fully recorded in the audit trail systems;
- receipt of the confirmation of execution from the external venue, containing at least: quantity executed, execution price, fees applied by the venue, date and time of execution, any unexecuted residuals;
- updating of the Internal Ledger and settlement of the client’s positions following the confirmation of execution (in ledger-based mode or by means of on-chain delivery to a Pre-registered External Address, where selected); the Execution Receipt is made available to the client through the application interface and retained for the period provided for by the applicable legislation.
Order types available in the Journey “Pro”: market orders, limit orders, conditional orders (stop), orders with time parameters (GTC, IOC, FOK), where supported by the External Execution Venue. Such types are managed by the external venues according to their respective operational rules.
Pursuant to Article 78(5) of MiCAR, where execution takes place outside an authorised trading platform, the Company shall obtain the express and prior consent of the client, recorded with a timestamp in the information systems. Such consent is obtained through a non-circumventable mechanism in the application interface. The User has the right to revoke such consent at any time for future operations; the revocation does not affect operations already executed. In case of revocation, the Company shall not be able to make use of such execution modality for the User’s subsequent orders.
Specific instructions from the client. Where the User provides specific instructions relating to the execution venue or to other parameters of the order, the Company complies with such instructions within the limits technically and legally permitted. In such cases, the Company informs the User that compliance with the specific instructions may prevent the full application of the measures provided for in the Execution Policy for the purpose of achieving the best possible result. The specific instructions are recorded in the information systems and associated with the order, allowing the ex post reconstruction of the logic followed in the execution.
The Company continuously monitors the effectiveness of the Execution Policy, verifying that the selected venues ensure over time an adequate level of execution quality. The outcomes of the verifications are the subject of periodic reports addressed to the Management Body. The Execution Policy is approved by the Management Body, reviewed at least annually and updated whenever material changes intervene.
5.6 OTC Desk
The Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR is also accessible, for operations of significant amount or for professional or institutional clientele, through the Company’s OTC Desk by means of recorded communication channels. It is understood that the reference to the Journey “Pro” identifies exclusively the technical-functional perimeter of access to the OTC Desk and does not affect the legal qualification of the operations carried out through such channel, which remain in any case Bilateral Exchange operations under Article 77 of MiCAR, distinct and autonomous from the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR. The OTC Desk operator preliminarily verifies the identity of the client and the ownership of the account on the Platform before the collection of the order parameters and the request for a quote. The operator does not have any discretionary power to determine the price, but is limited to querying the Pricing Engine and communicating to the client the quote generated by the system according to the pre-defined methodology. The quote communicated through the OTC Desk constitutes a firm quote pursuant to Article 77 of MiCAR, valid for a limited and pre-defined time interval communicated to the client during the quotation phase, after which the quote automatically loses effect and must be regenerated. The execution and settlement of the operation remain fully managed by the Platform’s IT systems and follow the same Fulfilment Flow of the standard Bilateral Exchange Service.
5.7 Custody and Administration Service (Article 75 MiCAR)
The Custody and Administration Service constitutes essential and transversal infrastructure with respect to the Bilateral Exchange and Execution of Orders on Behalf Services. The custody model adopted by the Company is fully described in the Custody Policy, which forms an integral part of these Terms and Conditions. In summary, the custody model is based on the following elements:
- the clientele’s crypto-assets are held in a secure, resilient infrastructure designed to ensure the integrity, availability and traceability of digital assets at all times. The clientele’s holdings are aggregated in a dedicated unified wallet formally registered in the name of Young Platform, but structured with accounting separation between the individual positions (omnibus model). Individual economic ownership is represented exclusively in the Internal Ledger by means of analytical accounting entries by client and by asset;
- segregation occurs through: (i) individual management of positions by means of unique deposit addresses and client identifiers; (ii) an analytical accounting system that ensures at all times the alignment between actual holdings and internal records; (iii) a set of automated controls and manual checks that validate every movement. The entire configuration is set up to exclude the clients’ crypto-assets from the active mass in case of insolvency of the Company;
- access to crypto-assets and their movement are subject to multi-level authorisation rules, based on: distribution of cryptographic keys among multiple authorised internal parties; use of secure signing devices subject to continuous monitoring and advanced authentication; pre-defined transaction policies governing limits, signing thresholds and approval criteria according to the nature of the operation. The system is designed in “block by default” mode: no operation can be executed outside the cases expressly authorised;
- the following are carried out: daily reconciliations, with regard to crypto-assets, between internal records and actual on-chain holdings; a weekly Proof of Solvency that demonstrates the existence and full coverage of the aggregate positions of clients; second-level controls by the Compliance Function; periodic audits, including independent ones. The custody of crypto-assets is the subject of constant oversight by the Board of Directors, which approves and updates the procedure, assesses residual risks and verifies the effective implementation of the measures provided for;
- the Company ensures, where technically possible, the management of the rights connected with the crypto-assets held on behalf of the clientele, such as: the allocation of tokens deriving from airdrops; the exercise of automatic or passive rights linked to the holding; the participation in distribution mechanisms compatible with the custody system. Each relevant event is assessed on a case-by-case basis; where it is not possible to safely proceed with the execution, timely communication is given to the client with the related reasons;
- each client can access in real time, through the User Area, the updated balance of their crypto-assets with the history of the operations carried out. On a monthly basis, a summary report is made available containing the balance, the operations of the period and any further relevant information. The return of the crypto-assets or of the means of access, pursuant to Article 75(6) of MiCAR, is performed without undue delay and, under ordinary conditions, within the first working day following the validation of the request, save for any deferrals due to: (i) supervening AML/CFT and Travel Rule checks; (ii) applicable restrictive measures or sanctions; (iii) documented technical impossibility, including unavailability or congestion of the relevant blockchain networks; (iv) security checks necessary to prevent unauthorised transactions.
The technical management of the custody infrastructure may rely on specialised technological solutions provided by qualified infrastructure providers (in particular, the technological infrastructure provided by Fireblocks Ltd., based on Multi-Party Computation technology for the management of cryptographic keys). Such providers operate exclusively as technology providers and do not assume the role of sub-custodian nor do they establish direct relationships with the clientele. The regulatory responsibility of custody pursuant to Article 75 of MiCAR remains fully with the Company.
The technical custody infrastructure is structured in environments differentiated by security and operational profile: hot wallets, for the immediate execution of clientele operations, and warm wallets, for the holding of the majority of the assets. The distribution of assets between such environments is determined exclusively by criteria of security, operational continuity and liquidity management, formalised in internal procedures, and does not affect the ownership or the legal availability of the client’s positions. Any substantial changes to the custody operating model are communicated promptly to the clientele, in compliance with the principles of good faith and contractual transparency. It is understood that the Company may suspend, limit or terminate the support of one or more crypto-assets for regulatory reasons (including the delisting of tokens not compliant with MiCAR), operational risk, liquidity risk, IT security risk or market risk. In such cases, the Company informs the User with reasonable advance notice, where possible, indicating the options available (external transfer to a Pre-registered External Address, conversion into other supported crypto-assets or into Fiat Currencies). After the expiry of the indicated period without the User having exercised one of the options, the Company may proceed with a residual measure of orderly wind-down of the position, giving notice to the User.
5.8 Protection of Deposited Fiat Currencies
The Fiat Currencies deposited by Users on the Platform are held by the Company at authorised credit institutions or payment institutions, in accounts separated from the Company’s own liquidity and dedicated to the clientele. The modalities of holding and safeguarding the fiat funds are described in the operational conditions of the Platform and in the information document made available on the Site.
It is recalled that the amounts in Fiat Currencies and the Crypto-assets held on the Platform constitute a credit of the User towards Young Platform S.p.A. and do not constitute electronic money, a bank deposit or a payment instrument protected pursuant to the directive on deposit guarantee schemes.
5.9 Portfolio Management and Advisory Services (where activated)
Where activated, the Company also provides the service of individual portfolio management on crypto-assets pursuant to Article 81 of MiCAR and the service of advice on crypto-assets. The operations generated within discretionary management are executed exclusively through the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR, through the Smart Order Router, in compliance with the Execution Policy. The Company does not assume the role of economic counterparty in management operations. The remuneration for the management service consists of management fees provided for in the mandate, distinct from the economic conditions of the individual operations executed.
Settlement and traceability. The subscription operations completed by clients are settled, according to the applicable operational flow, by means of recording in the Internal Ledger or, where provided for, by means of on-chain delivery to a Pre-registered External Address. The Company retains documentary evidence of each subscription, of the actual review of the Placing Information Document and of the outcomes of the settlement operation, in the terms provided for by the applicable legislation.
5.10 Crypto-Asset Placing Service (Article 79 MiCAR)
Conflicts of interest in the Placing Service. For each of the cases referred to in Article 79(2) of MiCAR, the Company adopts specific organisational and procedural safeguards, detailed in the Placing Procedure and in the Conflicts of Interest Notice. In particular, the following are subject to dedicated discipline: (i) the cases in which the Company or related parties have direct or indirect economic interests in the Issuer or in the crypto-asset being placed; (ii) the cases of contextual provision of other MiCAR services on the same crypto-assets (custody, exchange, execution, advice); (iii) the cases of receipt of fees or remunerations capable of influencing the selection or the promotion; (iv) the cases of possible preference or privileged treatment of specific clients; (v) the management of inside or sensitive information relating to the Placing Initiatives, including by means of blackout periods and limitations on the personal transactions of the relevant persons.
Reinforced safeguards for Initiatives concerning crypto-assets issued by the Company. Where the Placing Initiative concerns crypto-assets issued by the Company itself or by parties belonging to the same group (including the YNG utility token, qualified as a crypto-asset other than ART/EMT pursuant to Title II of MiCAR and the subject of a published white paper), reinforced safeguards apply pursuant to Article 79(2) of MiCAR. In particular: (i) the regulatory assessment of the Initiative is conducted with the direct involvement of the Compliance Function and the Risk Management Function; (ii) the Placing Information Document is subject to reinforced verification of completeness, clarity and non-misleading nature; (iii) the direct or indirect economic interests of the Company or of the relevant persons in the project are identified, segregated and managed in accordance with the Conflicts of Interest Notice; (iv) the circumstance that the crypto-asset is issued by the Company is the subject of express and immediately perceivable disclosure to the client within the Placing Information Document and the subscription interface.
Pre-placing disclosure. Prior to the client’s subscription to each Placing Initiative, the Company makes available, in a durable medium, the Placing Information Document containing the information required by Article 79(1) of MiCAR. The client is required to confirm review thereof through the Platform interface, in a non-circumventable manner, prior to being able to finalise the subscription. The information contained in the Placing Information Document is approved in advance in writing by the Issuer, pursuant to Article 79(1), second subparagraph, of MiCAR, by means of a written agreement, traced documentary exchange or other equivalent modality.
Distinction with respect to the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR. The possible use of the application infrastructure of the Bilateral Exchange module for the execution and settlement phase of the operations vis-à-vis clients is limited to the technical-operational layer and does not determine the requalification of the service provided. In the Placing Service, the Company acts as a party in charge of the distribution by mandate of the Issuer, does not assume structural inventory risk and acquires the crypto-assets exclusively to the extent necessary for the settlement of the subscriptions of the final clients.
The Placing Initiative may relate to newly issued crypto-assets or to existing crypto-assets, including those held in treasury by the Issuer and subject to a structured distribution campaign. The qualification of the service as placing under Article 79 of MiCAR is determined by the mandate received from the Issuer or from the person seeking admission to trading, regardless of the circumstance that the crypto-asset is already traded on other venues.
Where activated for specific initiatives, the Company provides the crypto-asset placing service pursuant to Article 79 of MiCAR on a without firm commitment basis. The Company does not assume any firm subscription commitment vis-à-vis the Issuer, does not preventively purchase on a definitive basis the tokens being placed for inventory or autonomous distribution purposes and does not guarantee to the Issuer the successful outcome of the operation.
5.11 DeFi Wallet Technical Service (non-custodial wallet)
The Platform makes available to Users a technological infrastructure called “DeFi Wallet”, configured as a non-custodial wallet (unhosted wallet). Such module operates outside the perimeter of the services regulated by MiCAR: the Company does not hold, control or have access to the User’s private cryptographic keys, nor is it able to dispose of the assets held therein. Young Platform acts in such context exclusively as a provider of software technological infrastructure, without assuming the role of counterparty, custodian or intermediary in the operations carried out by the User on the blockchain.
The DeFi Wallet is not activated by default. Prior to activation, the Platform presents a clear and non-circumventable notice illustrating: (i) the exclusion from the MiCAR perimeter; (ii) the absence of any role of Young Platform as counterparty, custodian or intermediary; (iii) the exclusive responsibility of the User for the custody of the private keys and the transactions. The User is required to expressly confirm review thereof before the module becomes operational. The transfer of crypto-assets from the custodial portfolio to the DeFi Wallet constitutes an on-chain transfer to an external address (unhosted wallet), managed in compliance with the AML legislation and the Travel Rule.
The management of the private keys of the DeFi Wallet is implemented through Multi-Party Computation (MPC) cryptographic technology with a 2-of-2 signature scheme: one key share is generated and stored in encrypted form in the maximum security area of the User’s mobile device (Secure Enclave); the second share is stored in a secure hardware enclave managed by the qualified technology provider on which the Company relies. In order to authorise a transaction, the User must provide their explicit consent through local biometric authentication of the device, which activates the joint cryptographic computation between the two shares without the private key in its entirety ever being reconstructed. The Company has, at no time, visibility, access or control over the key share present on the User’s device nor over the on-chain funds.
The architecture provides for a mandatory encrypted backup of the key share on the User’s personal cloud (e.g. Apple iCloud or Google Drive), to mitigate the risk of loss of the device. Should the User intend to cease the use of the Company’s technical infrastructure, the system allows the User to reconstruct, fully autonomously, their own private key (Full Key Takeover), in order to import it into third-party non-custodial wallets and to freely dispose of their on-chain funds, without any dependence on the Platform.
The DeFi Wallet implements the paradigm of account abstraction (ERC-4337), whereby the holding of on-chain funds takes place within a dedicated Smart Contract Wallet. Through a component called Paymaster, the Company offers the User the technical option to pay the network fees (gas fees) in alternative tokens or to benefit from sponsored transactions where available. The estimated transaction costs are always made evident to the User prior to execution; recourse to the facilitated modalities is optional, and the User may always choose to bear the network fees in the native currency of the blockchain. Prior to any on-chain operation, the interface presents to the User a human-readable summary indicating the destination protocol and the exact amount of the fees.
The Company implements technical safeguards (guardrails) that limit the operation of the DeFi Wallet to protocols, assets and blockchain networks preventively analysed and enabled on the basis of objective technical criteria (availability of public audits, maturity and operational continuity of the protocol, transparency of the on-chain governance). Such restrictions are applied at the infrastructure level and prevent the User from interacting with smart contracts not provided for by the technological offer of the Platform. It is understood that, with reference to any lending, borrowing, staking or other interaction operations with third-party decentralised protocols carried out by the User through the DeFi Wallet, the Company does not assume any role of counterparty, lender, borrower, liquidity provider, custodian or intermediary, nor does it provide credit, savings collection or credit intermediation services: such operations are concluded directly between the User and the decentralised protocol by means of cryptographic signature of the transaction performed by the User with their own key. The selection of the enabled protocols does not constitute financial recommendation nor any guarantee as to their operation, security or the economic outcomes of the operations that the User autonomously chooses to carry out.
5.12 User Interface, Order Summary and Visual Separation between Services
The Platform is designed in such a way as to make immediately perceivable to the client the distinction between the services provided. The interface always makes evident, prior to Order Finality: the service used (Article 77 or Article 78 of MiCAR), the role of the Company (principal or agent), the contractual counterparty of the operation, the nature of the price displayed (firm quote or expected execution price), fees and Total Consideration, moment and conditions of Order Finality.
The Order Summary constitutes a mandatory step prior to the final confirmation. The client is required to expressly confirm the content thereof. The technical architecture prevents that after Order Finality the price may be unilaterally modified, save for objective and documented circumstances (serious technical malfunctions, regulatory suspensions). The Platform does not use wording or graphic representations that may suggest the existence of an internal multilateral system or of a matching mechanism between clients in the context of the Service under Article 77 of MiCAR.
5.13 Third-Party Software
The Company has among its purposes the distribution and dissemination of decentralised technologies as well as their connection with software that facilitates their use; therefore, in an appropriate section of the site, and following the signing, where necessary, of specific terms and conditions, the Company makes available third-Party software. In this regard, Young Platform may not be held liable for any disruptions caused by such third parties, as they are not under the direct domain and control of Young. In any case, please report any issues to the following email address: [email protected].
5.14 Ancillary Services
For the performance of any activity necessary, useful or functional to the preparation, management and provision of the Services, the Company makes use of trusted partners, employees and/or collaborators. Moreover, part of the services present on the Platforms is composed of technological components also from third parties.
Fees and Pricing
Users, through the Platforms, may proceed with the purchase of the Services offered by Young Platform, proceeding directly to payment thereof at the time of the Order, by means of the modalities indicated, accepted and published within the Platform.
Young Platform is indisputably entitled to set or vary, unilaterally and at its sole discretion, the Fees and Pricing by means of publication in the relevant section on the Platforms. The User acknowledges that the Fees and Pricing may be determined by Young Platform either in a fixed amount or as a percentage in relation to the amount of the individual Order or of the individual transaction executed. Type and amount of the Fees and Pricing, save where access is made through Authorised Distributors. The fees applicable to any Placing Initiatives provided by the Company pursuant to Article 79 of MiCAR are indicated, for each Initiative, in the Placing Information Document made available to the client prior to subscription (in such case Fees and Pricing will be available on the dedicated platform of the Authorised Distributors), and are identified in the document available at: exchange.youngplatform.com/it/fees.
In the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR, the Company’s remuneration may be incorporated in the price determined by the Pricing Engine in the form of a Spread with respect to the market reference prices, in addition to any explicit fees. The Total Consideration (overall price including all the economic components) is always displayed to the client in the Order Summary prior to Order Finality. The Total Consideration and any other economic component applicable to the individual operation (explicit fees, Spread, network costs) are communicated to the client in an individualised manner prior to Order Finality and confirmed on a durable medium in the execution receipt made available in the User Area. In the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR, the Company’s fees are added to the price resulting from the execution at the External Execution Venue, as communicated in the Order Summary.
It is understood that the Fees and Pricing may be subject to customisations (always available on the site). The detailed fee schedule for each service and type of operation is set out in the Fees and Pricing Notice, which forms an integral and substantial part of these Terms and Conditions, and is provided to the client at onboarding, in a durable format, together with the versions made available in the “Fees and Pricing” section of the Platform, and in Annex A to these Terms & Conditions.
In addition, the Company represents that the exhaustive list of the crypto-assets offered on the Platform is set out in the following Annex B to these Terms & Conditions.
Both Annexes form an integral part of this document.
Orders
The following applies where the User uses the Services to buy and sell Crypto-assets for Fiat Currencies or vice versa, or to exchange Crypto-assets for another form of Crypto-assets.
7.1 Authorisation
When submitting a new Order through the Services, the User authorises Young Platform to execute a transaction in accordance with such Order and to charge to the User any applicable fees (as described in the “Fees and Pricing” section).
7.2 Independence Relationship
The User acknowledges and accepts that:
- in the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR, the Company acts as contractual counterparty of the client (principal) and not as broker, intermediary, agent or adviser;
- in the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR, the Company acts as intermediary (agent) on behalf of the client and does not assume market risk;
- no communication or information provided by Young Platform shall be considered or interpreted as investment advice, financial advice, business advice or any other type of advice;
- all operations are carried out automatically, on the basis of the parameters and instructions of the Order requested by the User and in accordance with the Services offered to the User;
- the User is solely responsible for the determination of the parameters and instructions of an Order;
- the User is aware of the possible risk of loss of the entire balance present on their Wallet that may arise from the purchase, sale or holding of Crypto-assets and, also, that such risk is exclusively dependent on their decisions concerning such operations on Crypto-assets and/or in any case through the Services;
- Young Platform does not recommend the purchase, sale or holding of any Crypto-asset. Prior to undertaking any of the aforementioned operations, the User should conduct their own analysis (i.e. “due diligence”) in order to assess all aspects of the Crypto-asset they wish to purchase, sell or hold;
- Young Platform shall not be held liable for the decisions that the User takes on the purchase, sale or holding of Crypto-assets on the basis of the information provided by the Company.
7.3 Exchange Confirmation and Order Finality
In the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR, Order Finality coincides with the acceptance of the firm quote within the period of validity indicated in the application interface. From that moment: the contract between the client and the Company is deemed concluded for the purposes and effects of Article 77(3) and (4) of MiCAR, with the consequent irrevocability of the operation; the Company assumes the legal obligation to execute the operation at the price displayed; the client’s resources are blocked in the custody system; the Internal Ledger is updated consistently with the variation of the positions. Any cases of non-execution after Finality are limited to objective and documented circumstances (serious technical malfunctions, regulatory suspensions or supervening AML/CTF, manifest errors) and are subject to recording and internal verification.
In the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR, the order becomes irrevocable at the moment in which it is taken in charge for execution towards the external venue. The resources required are blocked in the Internal Ledger and are automatically re-credited in case of non-execution. The conclusion of the operation and the definitive updating of the positions take place following the confirmation of execution received from the External Execution Venue. The Execution Receipt is made available to the client through the application interface and retained for the period provided for by the legislation.
Once the User has executed an Order through the Platform, a confirmation relating to the details of the purchase and sale will be made available electronically. The User acknowledges and accepts that the absence of such confirmation on the Platform shall not prejudice or invalidate the terms of such Order.
Direct purchase with card or through Apple Pay / Google Pay (so-called “Direct Buy”): within the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR, where the User accesses the firm quote by means of direct purchase with payment card or through Apple Pay or Google Pay, the Order Finality and the consequent successful outcome of the operation are subject to the completion, by the User, of the related deposit within the period of validity of the firm quote, equal to 30 (thirty) seconds from the relative generation, as indicated in the application interface. After the expiry of such period without the deposit having been completed, the quote automatically loses effect and the Order is not finalised; the User shall be required to request the generation of a new quote in order to proceed with the operation.
7.4 Exchange Rates and Price Formation
It being understood that the User acknowledges and accepts that the information on exchange rates made available through the Services may differ from the exchange rates made available through sources outside the Services, the Company undertakes to give effect to the Orders submitted by Users without any guarantee of execution, on a commercially reasonable basis, bound by the market conditions available from time to time.
In the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR, the price is determined by the Pricing Engine according to an objective and pre-defined methodology. The price proposed may include a Spread; the client always views, prior to Finality, the Total Consideration including all the economic components. Pursuant to Article 77(4) of MiCAR, once Order Finality has been reached, the Company is required to execute the operation at the price displayed.
7.5 Market Volatility
In particular during periods of high volume, illiquidity, rapid movements or volatility of the market for any Crypto-asset or Fiat Currency, the actual exchange rate at which an Order is executed by the Platform under Article 78 of MiCAR may differ from the exchange rate previously indicated, at the time of submission of the Order by the User. The User understands that the Company is not liable for such price fluctuations.
In the event of a market disruption or force majeure event, Young Platform may carry out one or more of the following operations: (a) suspend access to the Services; or (b) prevent the completion of any action through the Services, including the closure of any open Order. The User acknowledges that, following a disruption or force majeure event, the actual exchange rates at which the Orders are executed may differ significantly from the rates previously indicated to such circumstances. It is understood that in such case Young Platform shall not be required to make any compensation and/or refund.
Risk Disclosure
8.1 Risks of Purchase and Sale
The User acknowledges and accepts that they access and use the Services at their own risk. The risk of loss in the purchase and sale of Crypto-assets and/or Fiat Currencies may be substantial. The User must therefore carefully assess whether such operations are suitable for their position, in light of their circumstances and their financial resources.
The User must also be aware of the following:
- they may suffer a total loss of the balance present on their Wallet;
- in certain market conditions, it may be difficult or impossible to execute an Order. This may occur, for example, when there is insufficient liquidity on the market;
- the entry of contingent orders shall not necessarily limit the User’s losses to the amounts expected according to the exchange rate indicated by the User as a parameter in the Order, since market conditions may make the execution of the order itself impossible;
- in the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR, the actual execution price is determined by the External Execution Venue and may differ from the indicative price displayed at the time of submission of the order;
- all operations on Crypto-assets entail risk, and a “market” position may not be less risky than a “long” or “short” position;
- the value of Crypto-assets is subject to high volatility and may undergo sudden and significant variations in a very short time, even being completely zeroed;
- Crypto-assets do not benefit from guarantee schemes analogous to those provided for bank deposits or for financial instruments;
- in no way may Young Platform be held liable towards the User for losses and/or other damages, save for cases of wilful misconduct and, with regard to the Custody Service under Article 75 of MiCAR, in accordance with what is provided for in Article 13.1 of this contract. In any event, should it be held liable for the Services under Articles 77 and 78 of MiCAR, such liability may not in any case exceed the value of the Fiat Currencies or Crypto-assets deposited by the User on their account, so that any damage that may be suffered by the User is limited to a value not exceeding that corresponding to the amount of the deposits present on the Wallet, and therefore net of the operations executed.
8.2 Risks Arising from Third-Party Software and Activities
The platform incorporates third-party software and services, including by way of example the services distributed on the marketplace. Young takes care that such services are performed in the best modalities and with the necessary skill and attention. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Users expressly indemnify Young from any damages and/or losses recorded as a result of the activation and/or use of third-party software, with particular regard to the solutions made available by Young on the Platforms.
8.3 Risks Connected with the DeFi Wallet
The operations carried out through the DeFi Wallet do not fall within the scope of MiCAR and do not benefit from the protections provided for therein. The exclusive responsibility of the custody of the private cryptographic keys and of any transaction lies with the User. Young Platform does not assume any role of counterparty, custodian or intermediary in the transactions carried out by the User on the blockchain. It is reported in particular that: (i) the loss of the private keys entails the irreversible loss of access to the crypto-assets; (ii) blockchain transactions are irreversible; (iii) the User is exposed to the risks inherent in DeFi protocols, including smart contract risk, insufficient liquidity and cyberattacks on third-party protocols.
8.4 Custody Risks
The User is aware that the Crypto-assets held in custody by the Company pursuant to Article 75 of MiCAR are subject to the technical risks inherent in the custody infrastructure (malfunctions, cyberattacks, temporary unavailability). The Company adopts the security measures described in the Custody Policy to mitigate such risks. In case of loss attributable to the Company, the liability regime referred to in Article 13.1 applies.
Pre-Contractual Information, Transparency and Conflicts of Interest
9.1 Pre-Contractual Information pursuant to MiCAR
In compliance with the transparency obligations provided for by MiCAR, the Company makes available to the client, prior to the conclusion of the contract and in the dedicated section of the Site (youngplatform.com/legal/), the following information:
- for the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR: the price determination methodology, the modalities of formation of the firm quote, any economic components incorporated in the price (Spread), the selection criteria of the market data sources, the Order Finality conditions;
- for the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR: the full Execution Policy, the best execution factors applied, the execution venues used, the modalities of treatment of the client’s specific instructions, the conditions for execution outside an authorised trading platform;
- for the Custody Service under Article 75 of MiCAR: the Custody Policy, the segregation model adopted, the security measures, the reconciliation modalities and the business continuity safeguards;
- the Fees and Pricing applicable to each service;
- the Conflicts of Interest Notice;
- the information on the risks associated with crypto-assets;
- the complaints procedures available;
- the information on the Company’s liability regime, including the special regime provided for by Article 75(8) of MiCAR for the custody service.
Post-operation reporting for the Service under Article 78 of MiCAR. Following each operation executed within the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service, the Company makes available to the client the Execution Receipt through the application interface. The Company also makes available to the client, in the User Area, the history of the operations executed and the related execution conditions, allowing the verification of the coherence with the applicable best execution criteria.
Such information is updated whenever material changes intervene. The User is invited to periodically consult such section.
9.2 Conflicts of Interest
The Company adopts and maintains effective organisational measures and procedures to identify, prevent and manage the conflicts of interest that may arise in the provision of the Services, in compliance with Article 72 of MiCAR. In particular:
- in the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR, the Company acts as counterparty of the client; such structural configuration in itself constitutes a situation of potential conflict of interest, which is managed through transparency on the role of the Company, the objective determination of the price through the Pricing Engine and the disclosure of the Total Consideration prior to Order Finality;
- in the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR, the Company declares not to receive at present any fees, rebates, payment for order flow or other monetary or non-monetary economic benefits from trading venues, market makers, liquidity providers or other external counterparties capable of affecting the determination of the execution conditions; any future economic benefits would in any event be subject to prior assessment by the Compliance and Risk Functions and to disclosure to the client, and could in no case compromise the best execution obligation;
- the selection of the External Execution Venues and of the Liquidity Providers takes place according to objective and documented criteria, not influenced by the Company’s own interests in conflict with those of the client. In the Placing Service under Article 79 of MiCAR, the Company applies specific safeguards for each of the conflict cases envisaged by Article 79(2) of MiCAR, in accordance with the provisions of the relevant paragraph of the preceding Article 5.10 and of the Placing Procedure; such safeguards include, in particular, functional segregation of the relevant activities, internal approval and control processes of the Placing Initiatives, monitoring by the Compliance and Risk Management Functions and reinforced disclosure obligations towards the clientele.
The Conflicts of Interest Notice is available on the Site and forms an integral part of the Annexes. In cases of conflict situations not manageable through the measures adopted, the Company informs the client prior to proceeding with the operation.
Processing of User Data
Young Platform undertakes to process the User’s Personal Data acquired in the context of the performance of the contract in the forms and within the limits imposed by the applicable legislation. The details relating to the processing of the User’s Personal Data are defined within the specific information notice provided to them prior to the conclusion of the contract.
User Responsibility
The User shall: a) save regularly and securely the data uploaded and stored in their personal area on the Platform and create backup copies, in order to recover such data in case of loss (including reports and transaction histories); b) respond promptly to the requests of Young Platform necessary for the latter to fulfil the obligations imposed by the applicable legislation; c) report promptly and accurately to Young Platform functional faults, malfunctions or damages to the Platform and to the Services; d) ensure that the devices through which they access the Platform and the related software components do not cause any prejudice to Young Platform, to the Platform or to other clients; e) indemnify and hold harmless Young Platform for all costs, losses and claims for damages, including those of other clients of Young Platform and of third parties, including the supervisory Authorities, the judicial Authority and any other public Authority, that may arise against Young in case of breach of the obligations deriving from this contract by the User, including the prejudices that may derive to Young Platform in the event that the documentation and data provided by the User under their exclusive responsibility prove to be false, unsuitable or incomplete; f) maintain confidentiality of their own Credentials; g) under no circumstances use the Profile of another User; h) use only accounts and/or cards held in the name of the User.
The User is responsible for all costs, including the costs of legal defence, borne by Young Platform for any breach of third-party rights caused by the User in the performance of this contract, including the use of the Platform or of the Young Services.
Suspension and Limitation of Young Platform Services
The User accepts that access to the Platform and the Services may be temporarily unavailable, suspended or limited in the case of scheduled maintenance events or of events outside the control of Young Platform, which may not be held in any way liable for such circumstances. By way of mere example and not exhaustively, the following are considered events outside the control of Young: force majeure events, acts of third parties not acting on behalf of Young Platform, technical conditions relating to the internet that cannot be influenced or controlled by Young, malfunctions of the devices used by the User, cyberattacks and cases of unscheduled maintenance. Young Platform promptly informs the User in the event of scheduled maintenance events that render the Platform and/or the Services temporarily unavailable or that limit access thereto.
In case of unavailability, suspension and limitation of the Services or of access to the Platform, Young Platform undertakes to resolve the related issues and to restore the full functionality of the Services owed to the User within a reasonable period of time, taking into account the interventions necessary for the purpose. In case of breach of the contractual obligations by the User, Young Platform has the right to adopt reasonable measures to prevent damages to the Platform and ensure the availability of the Young Services. Such measures may include the partial or total limitation of access to the Platform and to the Young Services by the User, as well as, in certain serious cases, the total blocking of operations.
Young Platform is released from any liability towards the User in cases where the breach or delay in the performance of the obligations under these Terms and Conditions are due to force majeure events. For the purposes of this contract, a force majeure event is considered any event or circumstance that escapes the reasonable control of Young Platform, that could not have been avoided by the latter by resorting to the diligence, prudence and skill of a reasonable and prudent operator and that has the effect of preventing Young Platform from fully or partially complying with the obligations assumed by it under the contract. By way of example and not exhaustively, the following are considered force majeure events: acts and measures of the public authority, general strikes, absolute lack of means of transport, war, riot or other military actions, floods, natural catastrophes, pandemics or any other unforeseeable event that escapes the reasonable sphere of availability of Young Platform and that prevents the full and correct performance of the contract.
Liability of Young Platform
13.1 Liability for the Custody and Administration Service (Article 75(8) MiCAR)
In the Custody and Administration Service of crypto-assets pursuant to Article 75 of MiCAR, the Company is liable towards the client for the loss of the crypto-assets attributable to it.
The Company is exempted from such liability only where it demonstrates that the loss derived from an event external to its reasonable control whose consequences could not have been avoided even by adopting all the due diligence required, in accordance with Article 75(8) of MiCAR.
In case of loss attributable to the Company, the compensation is equal to the market value of the lost crypto-assets at the moment in which the loss occurred, or to the value necessary to return crypto-assets of the same type and quantity, at the Company’s choice. The compensation is paid without delay, once the loss and the related amount have been ascertained, by means of re-crediting to the client’s account or, where preferred by the client and technically possible, by means of transfer of the equivalent crypto-assets to a Pre-registered External Address.
Where the loss is attributable to a third-party technology provider on which the Company relies for the management of the custody infrastructure, the Company shall in any event be liable in full towards the client, without prejudice to its right of recourse against the provider.
The client must communicate to the Company the loss of the crypto-assets without undue delay and in any event no later than the term provided for by the applicable legislation, in order to allow the necessary checks and corrective actions. The determination of the market value for the purposes of compensation is made on the basis of the quotations recorded at the moment of the occurrence of the damaging event (Liability Incident), as reconstructed at the outcome of the internal verifications and, where available, of the on-chain evidence.
13.2 Liability for the Bilateral Exchange Service (Article 77 MiCAR) and for the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service (Article 78 MiCAR)
For the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR, for the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR and for the Placing Service under Article 79 of MiCAR, Young Platform is liable towards the User exclusively for direct and immediate damages deriving from a breach of these Terms and Conditions due to wilful misconduct or gross negligence of Young Platform. In such context, the liability regime provided for by Article 75(8) of MiCAR, which refers exclusively to the custody component, does not apply.
Young Platform shall not in any way be liable towards the User for the conduct of any partner and/or service provider of Young Platform and/or third party providing services in favour of the User through the Platform, with the exception of the case in which the technology provider operates as a component of the custody service in accordance with what is described in paragraph 13.1. Furthermore, Young Platform may not be held liable for any issues relating to the access of Users who use Authorised Distributors, where such issues are linked to the platforms and/or services of said Authorised Distributors.
Complaints and Dispute Resolution Procedures
14.1 Complaints Procedure
The User who believes they have suffered a prejudice within the contractual relationship with the Company may submit a written complaint to Young Platform through the following channels:
- email: [email protected];
- online form: available on the Platform’s website
- registered letter with return receipt: Young Platform S.p.A., Via Francesco Cigna n. 96/17, 10155 Turin (TO).
The complaint must contain: first and last name of the User, account number, detailed description of the issue and of the disputed operation, date of the disputed operation or event, the solution or remedy requested. The Company undertakes to provide a reasoned response within 30 (thirty) calendar days from the receipt of the complaint. In case of exceptional complexity, the Company shall give notice thereof to the User indicating the term within which it will provide a response.
14.2 Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)
Should the User not be satisfied with the response received, or in case of failure to respond within the periods provided for, they may have recourse to the alternative dispute resolution mechanisms (ADR) provided for by the applicable legislation, including those possibly designated by the competent Authority pursuant to MiCAR. In particular, the User who qualifies as a consumer may turn to the ADR body designated by the competent Authority pursuant to Article 71 of MiCAR, or, failing this, to the alternative dispute resolution bodies registered in the list maintained by the Italian Ministry of Justice pursuant to Legislative Decree No. 28 of 4 March 2010; for the component of services connected to payment or electronic money operations rendered by third agreed parties, the option to have recourse to the Banking and Financial Arbitrator (Arbitro Bancario Finanziario) remains within the limits of its relevant competence. Without prejudice to the aforementioned out-of-court remedies, the User retains the right to bring the matter before the competent judicial Authority pursuant to Article 23 of this contract.
Duration, Termination of the Contract and Right to Suspend
The User acknowledges and accepts that this contract is concluded for an indefinite term. The User may withdraw from the relationship with Young Platform at any time, by communicating it to Young Platform by deleting their Account, without the need to provide any reason.
In turn, Young Platform may withdraw from the contractual relationship by communicating it to the User in writing (also through email and/or communication on the Platforms) with at least 30 (thirty) calendar days’ advance notice, without the need to motivate its decision.
Young Platform has the right to immediately terminate the contractual relationship, by communicating it in writing to the User (also through email and/or communication on the Platforms), where one of the following circumstances occurs: a) the User does not pay the fees of any kind due within 5 (five) days from the moment in which Young Platform communicates to them that it has not received the payments due; b) the User does not provide within 10 (ten) days to Young Platform the information and data in the User’s possession that Young Platform requests in order to fulfil obligations imposed by the applicable legislation; c) the User uses the Services for purposes contrary to the law, to the Terms and Conditions, to public order or to good morals; d) the User causes damages to the Platform or to the Services through wilful misconduct or gross negligence, through the use of unauthorised software solutions, malware or other analogous IT instruments; e) the User engages in conduct negatively assessed by the Company and/or that may entail a reputational risk for the same; f) the User does not access the Platform for more than 365 (three hundred and sixty-five) consecutive calendar days; g) the User is present in anti-crime, anti-terrorism and anti-money laundering lists, it being understood that in such latter case the Company reserves the right to immediately suspend the contractual relationship with the latter by unilaterally closing the account (subject to re-crediting of the holdings).
Where, in case (f) above, the User remains inactive for more than 365 (three hundred and sixty-five) calendar days, Young Platform will communicate to them that, should they not access the Platform within the following 15 (fifteen) calendar days, Young Platform will proceed with unilateral withdrawal (with 30 days’ advance notice) and the consequent closure of the account, thus interrupting the contractual relationship. It is understood that what is identified in paragraph (f) of this Article shall not apply where the User accesses the Services through Authorised Distributors.
In the event of holdings on the Wallet of a User, at the moment of closure, Young Platform will proceed with the re-crediting of said holdings to the User’s bank account, subject to confirmation of the data for the re-crediting by the User. Should the User wish to receive their crypto-assets in kind rather than their countervalue in Fiat Currencies, they must indicate to the Company a compatible Pre-registered External Address within 14 (fourteen) calendar days from the communication of closure of the relationship; failing which, the Company shall proceed with conversion into Fiat Currencies in accordance with the provisions of the previous sentence. Where the holdings are in Crypto-assets, Young Platform will proceed with the conversion thereof into Fiat Currencies prior to the re-crediting to the User’s bank account, who will therefore receive the countervalue in Euros in their bank account. It is understood that in case of failure to respond by the User to the first email and to the subsequent two reminders, Young Platform will not proceed with the re-crediting of the residual balance, regardless of its amount. If the residual balance, including any non-compliant deposits, is below 3.99 Euros, it will be retained by Young Platform. If the residual balance is between 3.99 Euros and 250 Euros, and only in the case in which the User has not responded to the reminder communications and, in any event, within 15 (fifteen) days from the last closure communication, such balance will be retained by Young Platform and will not be re-credited. If the residual balance exceeds 250 Euros, Young Platform will contact the client to define the modalities of re-crediting in accordance with the law. It is specified that the threshold of 3.99 Euros also applies to individual non-compliant deposits, which will not be refunded if their amount is below such threshold.
Without prejudice to the right to terminate the contractual relationship referred to in the previous paragraph, in the situations referred to in letters (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (g) or in circumstances in which it has reason to suspect that the User is using the Platform in a fraudulent manner, Young Platform may decide to suspend the provision of the Young Services to the User until the latter provides the information requested and/or until the breach is interrupted and/or until the User’s fraudulent conduct is ascertained and communicated to the User. Young Platform therefore reserves the right to limit, suspend or block the operations of the User’s account where proven anomalies or risk profiles requiring in-depth checks are detected.
In strict compliance with the provisions on Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and the combating of terrorist financing, the Company may proceed with the application of such precautionary measures without any obligation of prior notice or subsequent communication to the User regarding the restriction applied. The Company is not required to set out the specific reasons or the criteria underlying the decision to block, where such disclosure may prejudice the integrity of the controls or breach the confidentiality obligations imposed by the sector legislation (including the “tipping-off” prohibition pursuant to Article 39 of Italian Legislative Decree No. 231/2007). Without prejudice to the foregoing, the Company undertakes to provide the User with information regarding the restrictions applied whenever this is not expressly prohibited by law or does not prejudice the purposes of public order and public security. The restrictive or suspension measures will be graduated and differentiated according to the specific nature of the risk profile, the type of operations carried out and/or the anomalies actually detected, ensuring that the intervention is proportionate to the case analysed and takes into account the specificities of the individual client.
The dissolution of the contractual relationship for any cause produces the automatic resolution of the agreements relating to the Services subscribed on the Platform. In this regard, it is specified that, where the User has used and/or intends to use Tools on their account (by way of example: gift card, welcome bonus, etc.), and the same is subject to closure for one of the reasons referred to in Articles 11 and 15 of this document, such Tools and any bonuses associated with them, where not yet accrued, may no longer be redeemed and/or used.
The amounts and the crypto-assets held on the Platform by the User constitute a credit of the same towards Young Platform S.p.A. and do not constitute in any way electronic money, account or payment instrument, nor bank deposit. Such credit is not subject to any form of protection or guarantee, including deposit guarantee schemes, nor to any form of asset segregation with respect to the assets owned by the company. Young Platform will delete the User’s account on the Platform, including all the information associated with the account, including the User’s accounting data, after 2 (two) weeks from the date of cessation of the contractual relationship, save for the information for which the applicable legislation requires retention. Without prejudice to the User’s right to request or withdraw a copy of their data.
15.1. Death of the User
In case of death of a User, the Young Platform team, once it has received notice of the death, will proceed with the collection of the information necessary to proceed with the closure of the account of the deceased and, also, to carry out the re-crediting of any holdings to the heirs. The closure of the account is a permanent action and, once carried out, all products and services that the User could access through that account will no longer be available.
Where the deceased User, at the time of closure of the account, held a balance in Crypto-assets, such Crypto-assets will be converted into Fiat Currencies and re-credited to the bank account of the deceased. Where they held only Fiat Currencies, the same will be re-credited equally to the bank account of the deceased. The User acknowledges, for themselves and for their successors in interest, that, unless otherwise requested in writing by their heirs, Young Platform will carry out the conversion from Crypto-assets to Fiat Currency at the exchange value existing at the moment of closure of the account, acknowledges that Young Platform shall not in any way be liable for the exchange value applied and undertakes not to dispute in any way such exchange value.
Where the deceased User, at the time of closure of the account, still had specific active plans, such plans will be deactivated contextually with the closure of the account, with the consequent loss of any benefits not yet accrued.
Young Platform reserves the right to request all the information necessary to authenticate the heir and/or successor in interest, in order to ensure that the requesting person is authorised to act on behalf of the deceased User. In this regard, the sending of documentation supporting what is alleged may be required (including testamentary execution or court order). Failing the production of documentation to Young Platform by the heirs and/or successors in interest, Young Platform will be forced to turn to the judicial authority for the appropriate measures. It is understood that where the User accesses through an Authorised Distributor, the procedure for re-crediting the holdings will be carried out in coordination with said Authorised Distributor and always in the interest of the User and of their heirs.
15.2. Assignment of the Contractual Relationships
The User consents to the assignment of the contractual relationship in place with Young Platform, upon written notice by the latter and without prejudice to the possibility of withdrawal. It is understood that in the event of assignment, the rights and conditions of this Contract may not be prejudiced, save for the User’s express written consent.
Stamp Duty
In accordance with what is provided for by Article 10 of Presidential Decree (DPR) No. 633/1972 and as a result of the adjustment of the tariff part one attached to the Consolidated Law on Stamp Duty, the persons required to apply the stamp duty (the “Stamp Duty” or the “Tax”) include service providers referred to in Article 3(5)(i) and (i-bis) of Italian Legislative Decree 231/2007, who fall within the category of other operators for the purposes of anti-money laundering legislation and who are also subject to the tax monitoring obligations (Article 1(1) of Decree-Law 167/1990). In this regard, it is specified that Young falls within the persons required to apply the aforementioned Tax towards the Users.
The Stamp Duty on crypto-assets will be applied to all Users having a Young Platform account, regardless of their residence. The rate of the Stamp Duty is 0.2% (zero point two) of the value of the crypto-assets held at the end of each calendar year, calculated, where possible, on the basis of the countervalue in euros as at 31 December.
As from 1 October 2024, an advance levy of the stamp duty equal to 1.00 Euro was introduced, applicable only in the case in which the User has a total countervalue of their portfolio that exceeds the equivalent of 1.00 Euro. Subsequently, the same advance levy of the stamp duty equal to 1.00 Euro will be applied monthly to each portfolio whose countervalue exceeds the threshold of 1.00 Euro at the time of the levy, but exclusively in the case in which such Users’ portfolios have not been subject to the levy in the previous period.
In the event that the Euro balance is insufficient, the charge will be made by debiting the equivalent amount in USDC, at the sole discretion of Young Platform, where present and sufficient to cover the difference. As at 31 December of each year, the calculation of the stamp duty actually due will be carried out, and the amount charged in advance will be deducted from the total due.
This advance stamp duty levy modality also applies to all new Users who begin operating on the platform after 1 October 2024. Young Platform reserves the right to modify the frequency and the amount of the advance levies, giving notice thereof to the users with 30 calendar days’ advance notice.
Where the Euro balance is insufficient to cover the levy referred to the stamp duty, Young Platform will proceed, at its discretion, to: charge the equivalent amount in USDC, where present on the user’s account; carry out the charge at the first useful movement that allows the availability of a sufficient Euro balance; invite the user to set up the necessary provision through: payment with card; bank transfer; conversion of crypto-assets into FIAT currency. Such options will be presented in detail through specific banners and notices within each active account on Young Platform.
Travel Rule
The “Travel Rule”, introduced at international level and transposed within the European Union by Regulation (EU) 2023/1113 (“TFR Regulation”), is an anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing legislation that imposes on Crypto-Asset Service Providers (CASPs), such as Young Platform, the obligation to collect, verify and transmit the information relating to the originator and the beneficiary on each crypto-asset transfer. In order to ensure the interoperability of the protocols and the secure exchange of the information data, the Company makes use of the technological infrastructure and the market software Notabene.
17.2. Information Subject to Collection and Processing
In compliance with the regulatory obligations in force, the User is required to provide or verify specific information in support of the transactions, including:
- Full first and last name (or company name) of the originator and the beneficiary;
- Address of registered residence or registered office;
- Date and place of birth;
- Tax Code, national identification number or details of the identity document;
- Address of the blockchain wallet of origin and destination;
- Amount, purpose and means of payment of the transaction.
All the information collected will be processed in full compliance with the legislation in force on the protection of personal data (EU Regulation 2016/679 – GDPR) and stored in the AML database of the company for the period provided for by law.
17.3. Transfers to and from Other CASPs/VASPs
In transactions carried out to or from another registered intermediary, the exchange of data takes place as a rule in an automated manner through the Notabene hub. In the event that the counterparty CASP/VASP fails to transmit the data required or technical communication defects occur:
- The transfer will be subject to automated technical suspension on the Platform;
- The User will receive a real-time notification and a notice on the dedicated screen for the manual entry of the mandatory missing information;
- The temporary block will remain active and binding until the User has completed the entry of the data required and the same has been validated by the Company’s systems.
17.4. Transfers with Self-Hosted Addresses
Transfers involving origin or destination addresses not associated with a custodian intermediary (non-custodial / self-hosted wallet) are subject to the following mandatory conditions:
- Absolute Prohibition towards Third Parties: any transfer to or from self-hosted addresses that are not held directly and exclusively by the User holder of the Young Platform account is prohibited and inhibited at system level. The ascertainment of the exclusive ownership of the User is a prior and indispensable condition for the execution of the operation.
- Transactions with value below EUR 1,000: the User is required to provide a self-declaration of exclusive ownership of the wallet by completing the binding flag on the dedicated screen of the Platform. In the absence of such flag, the interface inhibits the submission of the order.
- Transactions with value equal to or above EUR 1,000: the User is required to perform an objective and technological verification of the ownership of the address by means of the execution of a cryptographic signature of a unique challenge, through the integrated module provided by Notabene. The positive outcome of the signature is the exclusive IT condition for the unblocking of the transfer.
17.5. Effects of Non-Compliance and Contractual Sanctions
Where the User does not provide the information required, refuses to complete the self-declaration or cryptographic signature procedures, or the information provided turns out to be false, incomplete or inconsistent, Young Platform reserves the right to adopt the following immediate measures:
- Blocking of transactions: immediate suspension or rejection of the transfer, with inhibition of the sending or receipt of new transactions;
- Suspension of the account: temporary limitation of the User’s access to the Platform and to the Services;
- Termination of the contract and reporting: right to terminate the contract with consequent definitive closure of the account and, where the legal prerequisites are met, reporting of the case to the Anti-Money Laundering function for subsequent compliance with the competent Authorities.
Amendments to the Contract
Young Platform may unilaterally amend the clauses and conditions of these Terms and Conditions. The amendments to the Terms and Conditions and/or the Annexes that entail a worsening of the contractual conditions for the User will be communicated to the latter at least 30 (thirty) days prior to the date of application of the amendment. The User may withdraw free of charge from the contractual relationship by the date of application of the amendment. The non-worsening proposed amendment is deemed accepted if the User does not withdraw from the contract prior to the date of application of the amendment and if the User operates under the new conditions. The withdrawal conditions for the User will be indicated in the proposal of unilateral amendment communicated to the User. The amendments to this contractual relationship that entail an improvement of the contractual conditions for the User or that are imposed by the applicable legislation may be applied by Young Platform at any time and with immediate effect. It is understood that any contractual amendments may not apply and/or apply differently where access is made through Authorised Distributors.
Amendments to the operating model. Any substantial amendment to the technological systems that affects the price formation, the order execution process, the custody service or the qualification of the role of the Company vis-à-vis the client is subject to a formalised process of preventive assessment by the Legal and Compliance functions of the Company prior to its application. Where such amendments affect the contractual conditions relevant for the User, the communication procedure provided for in this article applies.

ANNEX A
Detailed Fee Schedule
The detailed fee schedule for each service and type of operation set out below forms an integral and substantial part of these Terms and Conditions and is provided to the client at the onboarding stage, in a durable format, together with the versions made available in the “Fees and Pricing” section of the Platform.
(a) Fees for the Bilateral Exchange Service under Article 77 of MiCAR
In the bilateral exchange model (under Article 77 of MiCAR), the Company’s remuneration for the assumption of the market and counterparty risk is represented by a dynamic commercial spread, applied to the objective market price of the crypto-asset. Such spread is determined algorithmically on the basis of a classification of assets by market capitalisation (Market Cap), which reflects their structural liquidity and risk profile.
The crypto-assets are divided into the following classes, with the relative base and maximum spread parameters by way of example:
| Class | Criterion | Base Spread (Floor) | Maximum Spread (Cap) |
| Class A | >= 50 bn $ Market Cap | 0.40% | 0.80% |
| Class B | >= 1 bn $ Market Cap | 0.60% | 1.00% |
| Class O | < 1 bn $ Market Cap | 0.80% | 1.50% |
| Class S | EMT | 0.10% | 0.30% |
The Pricing Engine starts from the Base Spread of the class of belonging and adds a dynamic component deriving from the application of specific “penalty criteria” that measure the market conditions in real time:
- Market Quality Penalty (Volatility and Imbalance): calculated on the basis of the stability of the BBO quotations (through volatility indicators ATR and deviation of the spread) and of any asymmetry of the book pressure (Imbalance) detected on the reference venues.
- Size Penalty: applied where the volume of the order requested by the client significantly impacts the market depth and the available liquidity (slippage risk).
- Time Penalty (Firm Quote): the spread is adjusted on the basis of the duration of the price guarantee (5s for automated channel, 30s for automated channel – Direct Pay or via Apple Pay / Google Pay and 30s for assisted/OTC channel), to cover the market risk in the period of time granted to the client for confirmation.
The result of the sum (Base + Penalties) may in no case exceed the Maximum Spread defined for the respective class. Such a model ensures that the more capitalised and liquid assets always benefit from lower costs, while maintaining the protection of the Company and of the Client in case of extreme instability.
Additional Explicit Fees
In addition to the spread referred to above, the following explicit fees apply to the operations:
| Type | Value / Fee | Details |
| Ordinary Explicit Fees | 1.89% | Applied to ordinary purchase and sale operations. |
| Fixed Fee (EUR Pairs) Amounts ≤ EUR 50.00 | EUR 1.99 | By way of derogation from the percentage, applied to small-amount transactions. |
| Fixed Fee (EUR Pairs) Amounts > EUR 50.00 and < EUR 100.00 | EUR 2.49 | By way of derogation from the percentage applied to intermediate transactions. |
(b) Fees for the Execution of Orders on Behalf Service under Article 78 of MiCAR
