    Blockchain transactions are irreversible. Once a transaction is confirmed, it cannot be undone, modified, or deleted. AGIRAILS cannot reverse or cancel it. The transaction record is permanent and public.

    Think carefully before confirming any transaction.

    Our smart contracts are:

    • Audited by third-party security firms
    • Open-source and publicly verifiable

    Blockchain networks may experience:

    • Congestion causing delayed transactions
    • Forks creating temporary uncertainty
