Your use of the Services is also subject to any product-specific terms, risk disclosures, notices or other supplemental terms presented through the Services (“Supplemental Terms”).

Supplemental Terms may apply to a specific product, pool, Strategy, smart contract, blockchain network or feature. If Supplemental Terms conflict with these Terms, the Supplemental Terms will control only in relation to the applicable product or feature.

3.1 Nature of the Services

The Services provide software, information and technical functionality through which users may view data, connect a Wallet, submit transaction instructions and interact with smart contracts, Strategies or Third-Party Services.

The scope and operation of a particular product may be described in its Documentation or Supplemental Terms.

The Company may modify, replace, suspend or discontinue any Service at any time. The Company has no obligation to maintain any particular Interface, blockchain integration, Digital Asset, Strategy or feature.

3.2 Limited Role

Unless expressly stated in applicable Supplemental Terms, the Company provides software, interface, technical and administrative services only.

The Company does not act as your bank, broker, dealer, exchange, investment adviser, fund manager, trustee, fiduciary, agent, lender, insurer, custodian, legal adviser, tax adviser or accounting adviser.

The availability of a product, Strategy, proof, metric or transaction through the Services does not mean that the Company recommends it or considers it suitable for you.

Nothing made available through the Services constitutes an offer, solicitation or invitation to acquire or sell a regulated financial product in a jurisdiction where doing so would be unlawful.

The fact that an Interface is technically accessible from a jurisdiction does not mean that the Services are offered or legally available in that jurisdiction.

3.3 No Fiduciary or Advisory Relationship

The Company does not undertake to act in your best interests and does not owe you any fiduciary, suitability, advisory or best-execution duty, except where such a duty cannot legally be excluded.

You are solely responsible for evaluating the legal, financial, technical and tax consequences of using the Services.

You should obtain independent professional advice before entering into any transaction that you do not fully understand.

3.4 Protocol and Smart Contracts

Certain parts of the Protocol may operate on public blockchains, be made available under open-source licences or remain independently accessible without using the Interface.

The Company does not control public blockchains and cannot guarantee that any blockchain, smart contract or protocol component will remain available, unchanged, secure or functional.

The development, publication, maintenance or presentation of software does not constitute a guarantee regarding its security, legality, availability or economic performance.

Some smart contracts may contain administrative, upgrade, pause, allowlist, parameter-management or emergency permissions. Available information about material permissions may be provided in the Documentation.

The existence of any administrative permission does not create an obligation to identify, prevent, reverse or remedy any attack, error, loss or adverse event.

3.5 Proofs and Risk Information

The Services may display zero-knowledge proofs, attestations, risk metrics, reports, calculations or other outputs generated by software, hardware or third-party data.

These outputs validate only the particular statement, data or computation to which they relate. They do not guarantee future performance, solvency, profitability, regulatory compliance, smart contract security, data accuracy, asset recovery or the absence of fraud.

No proof, audit, review, attestation or risk-control process eliminates the possibility of loss.

4.1 General Eligibility

You must not use the Services if your use would violate Applicable Law, cause a Company Party or service provider to violate Applicable Law or expose a Company Party or service provider to material legal, sanctions, licensing or regulatory risk.

You must not use the Services if you are a Restricted Person, are located or ordinarily resident in a Restricted Jurisdiction, are incorporated or organized in a Restricted Jurisdiction, or are acting for the account or benefit of such a person.

“Mainland China” means the mainland territory of the People’s Republic of China.

Unless separately designated by the Company, Mainland China does not include Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Macao Special Administrative Region or Taiwan.

These representations remain in effect for as long as you use the Services.

5.1 Third-Party Wallets

Wallets are provided by third parties and are not created, maintained or secured by the Company.

Your use of a Wallet is governed by the Wallet provider’s terms. The Company is not responsible for the operation, availability, compatibility or security of any Wallet.

You are solely responsible for protecting your private keys, seed phrases, passwords, devices and other credentials.

You must not connect or use a Wallet that you do not own or have lawful authority to control.

5.2 Wallet Control

Connecting a Wallet to the Interface does not, by itself, provide the Company with your private keys or transfer custody of the assets held in that Wallet to the Company.

However, once you approve or submit a transaction, the relevant Digital Assets may become subject to a smart contract, Strategy, custodian, trading venue or other arrangement described in the applicable Documentation or Supplemental Terms.

The custody, control, deployment and withdrawal arrangements may differ between products. You are responsible for reviewing the relevant terms before submitting a transaction.

5.3 Transaction Authorization

When you sign or authorize a blockchain transaction, you instruct the relevant blockchain, smart contract or Third-Party Service to execute it.

Before authorizing a transaction, you must verify the relevant:

Wallet and smart contract addresses

Blockchain network

Digital Asset and amount

Token permissions and approvals

Fees and price information

Lock-up and withdrawal conditions

Other transaction details

The Company is not responsible for transactions you authorize because of mistake, phishing, malware, deception, device compromise or unauthorized Wallet access.

Blockchain transactions may be irreversible.

The Company may be unable to cancel, reverse, modify, recover or refund a transaction after it has been submitted.

The Company is not responsible for Digital Assets sent to an incorrect address, unsupported network, incompatible smart contract or unintended recipient.

Depending on the applicable product, Digital Assets may be subject to smart contracts, Strategies, custodians, trading venues, service providers or other technical and operational arrangements.

The Company does not guarantee the solvency, performance, security or continued availability of any such arrangement.

Any lock-up period, withdrawal procedure, liquidity condition or other material product term may be described through the Interface, Documentation or Supplemental Terms.

5.6 No Deposit or Insurance Protection

Digital Assets used through the Services are not bank deposits and are not guaranteed by the Company.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, they are not insured or protected by the Cayman Islands Government, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation or any other governmental or private insurance scheme.

You may lose all Digital Assets used in connection with the Services without any right to reimbursement.

Your use of the Services may involve blockchain gas fees, protocol fees, transaction fees, Strategy fees, performance fees, management fees, withdrawal fees, custody fees, trading fees or third-party charges.

Applicable fees may be displayed through the Interface, Documentation or Supplemental Terms. Fees may be deducted from deposits, transactions, positions, proceeds or returns where disclosed.

The Company may change fees prospectively at any time. A fee change becomes effective when displayed through the applicable Service or otherwise communicated to you.

Withdrawals and redemptions may be subject to lock-up periods, processing periods, withdrawal queues, available liquidity, smart contract conditions, compliance reviews and third-party restrictions.

The display of an estimated withdrawal time does not guarantee that a withdrawal will be completed within that period.

You are solely responsible for determining, reporting and paying all taxes, duties and assessments arising from your use of the Services. The Company does not provide tax advice and is not responsible for your tax obligations.

7.1 Prohibited Conduct

You must not use the Services for unlawful activity, money laundering, terrorist financing, proliferation financing, fraud, theft, sanctions evasion, market manipulation or infringement of another person’s rights.

You must not provide false or misleading information, impersonate another person, conceal a beneficial owner, use assets from unlawful sources or use a Wallet you do not lawfully control.

You must not interfere with or damage the Services, introduce malicious software, gain unauthorized access, exploit a vulnerability or use an unintended feature for abusive purposes.

You must not manipulate prices, markets, proofs, oracles, benchmarks or transactions. Prohibited activity includes wash trading, spoofing, fraudulent trading, abusive front-running and deliberate exploitation of erroneous data.

You must not use unauthorized bots, scripts, crawlers, scrapers or automation to access, copy, overload or interfere with the Services.

You must not reverse engineer proprietary software except where the restriction is prohibited by law. You must not reproduce, resell or commercially exploit the Services without written permission.

7.2 Screening and Verification

The Company may use blockchain analytics, IP information, device information, Wallet screening, sanctions screening and other compliance tools.

The Company may request information concerning your identity, residence, beneficial ownership, source of funds, source of wealth, transaction purpose or legal eligibility.

You must provide accurate and complete information within the period specified by the Company.

The Company is not obligated to complete screening, verification or monitoring for your benefit and does not guarantee that its controls will identify every unlawful or suspicious activity.

7.3 Investigations and Restrictions

The Company may investigate suspected violations and may restrict, suspend or terminate access where it considers such action appropriate.

Where legally and technically possible, the Company may reject, delay or restrict transactions, block Wallet addresses, impose limits or require additional verification.

Where the Company or a service provider controls transaction processing or assets, assets may be restricted or frozen when required or permitted by Applicable Law, Applicable Sanctions, a court order, a governmental request or a compliance review.

7.4 No Obligation to Give Notice

The Company may take compliance, security or investigative action without advance notice.

The Company is not required to disclose internal controls, screening criteria, risk assessments or the reasons for a decision where disclosure is prohibited, may compromise an investigation or may enable circumvention.

7.5 Cooperation with Authorities

The Company may preserve and disclose information to regulators, courts, law enforcement agencies, sanctions authorities, tax authorities and other competent authorities.

Nothing in these Terms requires the Company to challenge, resist or appeal a governmental or legal request on your behalf.

The Services may rely on, link to or integrate with Third-Party Services.

Third-Party Services operate under their own terms, privacy policies and technical systems. They are not controlled by the Company merely because they are accessible through or referenced by the Services.

The Company does not endorse or guarantee any Third-Party Service.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company Parties are not responsible for losses caused by:

Wallet providers

Blockchain networks

Exchanges or trading venues

Custodians

Strategy operators

Stablecoin issuers

Oracles and data providers

Bridges and cross-chain systems

Liquidity providers

Hosting, cloud or infrastructure providers

Other third-party software or service providers

This includes losses caused by insolvency, fraud, theft, hacking, inaccurate data, service interruption, withdrawal suspension, asset freezing, regulatory action, technical failure or changes to third-party terms.

Your use of a Third-Party Service is at your own risk.

You acknowledge that use of the Services involves substantial risks and may result in the loss of some or all of your Digital Assets.

9.1 Market and Strategy Risk

Digital Asset markets may be volatile, illiquid, manipulated or subject to sudden price changes.

A Strategy may fail to generate returns, produce negative returns or perform differently from historical or projected results.

Hedging, market-neutral positioning, proofs, risk limits and other controls do not eliminate the possibility of loss.

Past performance does not indicate future results. No return, yield, annual percentage yield or profit is guaranteed.

9.2 Stablecoin Risk

A stablecoin may lose its intended value, become illiquid, become unredeemable, be frozen, lose reserve or banking support, or become subject to issuer insolvency or regulatory action.

The description of a Digital Asset as a “stablecoin” does not mean that its value will remain stable.

9.3 Smart Contract and Blockchain Risk

Smart contracts may contain coding errors, design flaws, vulnerabilities, incorrect permissions, economic exploits or unintended behavior.

Blockchain networks may experience congestion, high fees, forks, reorganizations, governance disputes, validator failures, attacks, finality failures or shutdowns.

An audit, review, proof or security assessment does not guarantee that a smart contract or blockchain is secure.

9.4 Custody and Counterparty Risk

A custodian, exchange, Strategy operator, borrower, market maker, liquidity provider or other counterparty may default, become insolvent, misuse assets, suffer theft, suspend withdrawals or become subject to regulatory action.

The Company does not guarantee the performance or solvency of any counterparty.

9.5 Liquidity and Withdrawal Risk

Withdrawals or redemptions may be delayed or unavailable because of lock-up periods, withdrawal queues, insufficient liquidity, market disruption, smart contract conditions, third-party restrictions, compliance reviews or legal requirements.

You may be unable to withdraw Digital Assets at the time or value you expect.

9.6 Oracle, Bridge and Data Risk

Smart contracts and Strategies may depend on data supplied by exchanges, oracles or other providers. Such data may be delayed, unavailable, inaccurate or manipulated.

Bridges and cross-chain systems may suffer smart contract exploits, validator compromise, message failures, asset depegging or permanent asset loss.

9.7 Administrative and Governance Risk

Administrative keys, multisignature arrangements, governance systems and upgrade mechanisms may be compromised, lost, misused or exercised in a way that adversely affects users.

9.8 Hardware and Security Risk

The Services may rely on trusted execution environments, hardware security systems and third-party computing infrastructure.

These systems may be affected by hardware defects, firmware vulnerabilities, side-channel attacks, supply-chain compromise, malware, phishing, domain hijacking, dependency compromise or unauthorized access.

9.9 Regulatory and Sanctions Risk

Digital asset laws and regulatory interpretations may change without notice.

A legal or regulatory change may restrict the Services, require additional verification, cause assets or transactions to be frozen, make a Strategy unavailable or require the Company to suspend or terminate access.

A Wallet, Digital Asset, counterparty or transaction may become subject to sanctions or other legal restrictions after you begin using the Services.

9.10 Operational and Tax Risk

Human error, software failure, incorrect configuration, communication failure or service-provider failure may cause delays or losses.

Tax treatment may be uncertain and may change. You may incur tax liabilities even if you suffer a loss or cannot access your Digital Assets.

10.1 Limited Licence

The Company and its licensors own all rights in the proprietary portions of the Services, including the Interface, Documentation, trademarks, designs and content.

Subject to these Terms, the Company grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sublicensable right to use the Services for your personal or internal business purposes.

This licence ends when your access is suspended or terminated.

Certain software may be provided under an open-source licence.

Your rights to open-source software are governed by the applicable open-source licence. If these Terms conflict with that licence, the open-source licence controls with respect to the relevant software.

You must not use ZEROBASE names, logos or trademarks without written permission.

You must not suggest that the Company sponsors, endorses or is affiliated with you or your products without authorization.

10.5 Privacy

The Company’s processing of personal data is governed by the Privacy Policy made available through the Services.

Public blockchain transactions may be permanently visible. Wallet addresses and transaction information may be collected, analyzed and combined with other information for service operation, security, fraud prevention, sanctions screening and legal compliance.

The Company may be unable to alter or delete information recorded on a public blockchain.

You should not use the Services if you do not accept the public and potentially permanent nature of blockchain information.

11.1 Changes to the Services

The Company may modify, replace, restrict, suspend or discontinue any Service at any time.

The Company may change supported networks, Digital Assets, smart contracts, Strategies, fees, eligibility requirements, technical requirements or features without assuming liability to you.

11.2 Changes to These Terms

Changes relating to law, sanctions, fraud prevention, security or urgent operational matters may take effect immediately.

The Company may require you to affirmatively accept updated Terms. If you do not agree to an update, you must stop using the Services.

Continued use after an update becomes effective constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

A breach of these Terms

False, misleading or incomplete information

Suspected unlawful or suspicious activity

Security, technical or operational risk

Discontinuation of a Service

Legal, compliance or risk-management considerations

The Company may act with or without advance notice.

11.4 Effect of Termination

Following suspension or termination, your right to use the affected Interface or Service immediately ends.

Pending transactions may be delayed or rejected. Digital Assets remain subject to applicable smart contract conditions, lock-up periods, liquidity conditions, Supplemental Terms and legal restrictions.

Where legally and technically possible, you may be able to interact directly with a non-custodial smart contract through another compatible interface.

The Company is not required to provide an alternative interface, assist with direct smart contract interaction or ensure that direct access remains available.

You must not attempt to regain access after suspension by using another Wallet, identity, account, entity or intermediary.

12.1 Services Provided as Available

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Services are provided “as is”, “as available” and “with all faults”.

No Company Party is responsible for loss caused by a Wallet, blockchain, smart contract, exchange, custodian, Strategy operator, stablecoin issuer, bridge, oracle, service provider, regulator, governmental authority, unauthorized Wallet access, transaction authorized by you, inaccurate third-party information, cyberattack or other event outside the reasonable control of the relevant Company Party.

12.4 Liability Cap

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the total aggregate liability of all Company Parties arising out of or relating to the Services, the Protocol, a Strategy or these Terms will not exceed the greater of:

USD 100

The total fees paid directly by you to the Company for the relevant Service during the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim

Blockchain gas fees and fees paid to a smart contract, Strategy, exchange, custodian or Third-Party Service are not fees paid directly to the Company.

12.5 Non-Excludable Liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

The exclusions and limitations do not apply to liability finally determined by a competent tribunal to have resulted directly from the relevant Company Party’s fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

12.6 Time Limit for Claims

14.2 Informal Resolution

Before commencing arbitration, a party must send written notice describing the dispute, the factual basis of the claim and the requested relief.

The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute for 30 days after the notice is received.

14.3 Binding Arbitration

Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, Supplemental Terms, the Services, the Protocol, a Strategy, a transaction or your relationship with a Company Party will be finally resolved by binding arbitration.

The arbitration will be administered by the International Chamber of Commerce under the ICC Rules of Arbitration in force when the arbitration begins.

The arbitration will be conducted by one arbitrator. The legal seat of arbitration will be the Cayman Islands, and the language of the arbitration will be English.

The award will be final and binding. Judgment on the award may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

14.4 Individual Proceedings Only

You and the Company agree that claims may be brought only on an individual basis.

Neither party may bring or participate in a class action, collective action, representative action, private attorney-general action or consolidated arbitration involving unrelated parties.

The arbitrator may grant relief only to the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to resolve that party’s individual claim.

14.5 Interim Relief

A party may seek temporary, emergency or interim injunctive relief from an emergency arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction where necessary to protect assets, systems, confidential information or intellectual property.

The Company may bring claims concerning unauthorized system access, intellectual property infringement or misuse of confidential information before a court of competent jurisdiction.

Seeking interim relief does not waive the obligation to arbitrate the underlying dispute.

14.6 Confidentiality and Costs

The existence of an arbitration, its submissions, evidence, proceedings and award must remain confidential, except where disclosure is required by law, necessary to enforce an award, necessary to obtain professional advice or requested by a competent authority.

The arbitrator will determine the allocation of arbitration fees, legal fees and costs under the ICC Rules and applicable law.

No Company Party will be liable for delay, interruption or failure caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control.

Such circumstances may include natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, pandemics, sanctions, governmental action, court orders, regulatory action, labour disputes, power or Internet failures, cyberattacks, blockchain failures, smart contract failures, exchange or custodian failures and loss of access to Third-Party Services.

15.5 Severability

If any provision is invalid or unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted or modified to reflect its intended effect.

The remaining provisions will continue in full force.

15.6 Waiver

A failure or delay in exercising a right does not waive that right.

A waiver is effective only if made in writing by the party granting it.

15.7 Entire Agreement and Priority

These Terms, applicable Supplemental Terms, the Privacy Policy and expressly incorporated disclosures constitute the entire agreement concerning the Services.

If these documents conflict, applicable Supplemental Terms control first, followed by these Terms, the Privacy Policy and then the Documentation.
