# Chapter 15: Risks & Challenges

### 15.1 Regulatory Risk

* Crypto regulations vary by jurisdiction and may impact token distribution and exchange listing
* Verogram monitors regulatory developments and designs its operations to maintain compliance flexibility

* USD-denominated pricing and vesting mechanisms help absorb short-term volatility
