FUN TOKEN TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Last updated: 20 October 2025
These Terms of Sale ("Terms") govern access to and participation in the offshore distribution of the $fun token (the "Token") issued and offered exclusively by DM Fun Ltd, a BVI business company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, which is registered under BVI company no. 2188397 and has its registered office c/o Hermes Corporate Services (BVI) Ltd., Sixth (6th) Floor, Water's Edge Building 1, Wickhams Cay 2, Tortola VG1110, British Virgin Islands ("Company"). The sale of Tokens is conducted under British Virgin Islands laws.
By connecting a Wallet (as defined below), submitting an order for a Token, remitting SOL as consideration for a Token and/or otherwise interacting with the sales interface, you ("you" or "user") acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by these Terms in full. These Terms form a legally binding agreement between you and the Company.
The Token sale is intended solely for persons who are not located in, resident in, domiciled in, or otherwise subject to the laws or regulatory jurisdiction of the European Union, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, or any country or territory subject to comprehensive sanctions as identified in the public consolidated sanctions lists maintained by the United Nations, the European Union, the United Kingdom ("OFSI") and the United States of America ("OFAC") (each a "Prohibited Jurisdiction").
The Company via the Metaplex Genesis protocol uses a risk-based compliance KYC gating system to help prevent users in Prohibited Jurisdictions from accessing the sales interface for the Token and purchasing a Token. This includes tools like geo-location checks, wallet address screening, transaction analysis and other measures aligned with global sanctions compliance standards. Any effort by a user to bypass these controls, such as by using a virtual private network ("VPN"), proxy or similar methods, will be considered a serious violation of these Terms and may lead to refusal or cancellation of any Token Allocation (as defined herein).
The Token is a cryptographic meme coin utility token, designed exclusively for use within the dm.fun ecosystem on the Solana blockchain. These Terms do not constitute a prospectus, solicitation, or offering of securities. A Token is not a share, security, equity interest or other regulated financial instrument. A Token holder has no equity, governance, dividend, profit-sharing, or other financial rights in the Company or any Group Entity. No partnership, joint venture, or similar relationship is created between the user and the Company through participation in the sale of the Token. The Token is not intended to be acquired for speculative or investment purposes with the expectation of making a profit on resale.
Your eligibility and compliance obligations under these Terms continue through completion of Token delivery. If at any time prior to or following the issue of a Token to you, the Company determines that you have violated, or are likely to violate, these Terms or any applicable law or regulation (including, without limitation, sanctions laws), the Company may freeze, cancel, or nullify the relevant Token Allocation to you and take such actions as it considers necessary to comply with law and/or regulatory guidance. The Company shall have no obligation to compensate you for any resulting loss.
Any litepaper, technical paper, website, or other material published by the Company or its affiliates ("Token Documentation") is provided for informational purposes only and does not form part of these Terms or create contractual rights or obligations, nor do they constitute any representation or warranty. In the event of conflict, these Terms prevail.

- Where required by applicable law or reasonable risk assessment, the Company may request additional information or confirmations to ensure compliance with sanctions or AML obligations. Failure to provide such information in a timely and accurate manner may result in refusal, suspension, or cancellation of participation. The Company shall have no liability for any loss arising from delay or cancellation made in good faith to comply with sanctions or AML laws.
- The Company may, where required or reasonably deemed appropriate, report suspicious activity or transaction data to competent authorities or counterpart compliance providers.

8. PERSONAL INFORMATION AND DATA PROTECTION
- The Access Interface used for the Token sale is operated within the dm.fun ecosystem as part of its technical infrastructure. Limited technical data generated through the Access Interface may be collected and processed for access control and compliance evidence. Such data may be made available to the Company solely to verify participation eligibility and maintain compliance records.
-
The Company operates the Token sale through a non-custodial,
decentralised infrastructure that does not require the collection of
personal data such as names, identification numbers, or contact
details. However, for compliance and operational security, certain
technical data may be automatically logged when you interact with
the Access Interface, including:
- Wallet public addresses;
- blockchain transaction identifiers;
- IP address, country and timestamp of connection; and
- any attestation or acceptance logs confirming your representations under these Terms.
- This limited data processing is carried out solely for the purposes of: (i) enforcing eligibility and sanctions restrictions herein; (ii) evidencing your acceptance of these Terms; (iii) detecting and preventing abuse, fraud, or circumvention of geo-blocking or compliance measures; and (iv) the Company being able to demonstrate compliance with its legal obligations and risk-based framework.
- The Company does not use or sell data for marketing, profiling or any purpose unrelated to compliance and technical security.
- Processing is conducted under the lawful basis of legitimate interests (for compliance assurance and fraud prevention) and, where applicable, to comply with legal obligations under sanctions or AML law. All records are processed and stored under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, subject to data-protection standards consistent with the Data Protection Act 2021 and where relevant, principles of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
- The Company retains technical and compliance logs for up to five (5) years after the close of the Token Allocation, or for a longer period only where necessary to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, to respond to lawful requests by competent authorities, or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims (including applicable limitation periods). Data will be deleted, anonymised, or irreversibly aggregated once retention is no longer required.
- The Company implements administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the data processed, including network encryption, restricted access, and pseudonymisation. However, the Company does not guarantee absolute security of data transmitted over the internet or stored on decentralised systems, and you acknowledge that you transmit such data at your own risk.
- The Company may engage limited third-party technical providers to support blockchain analytics, sanctions screening and system security. These providers operate under written agreements requiring them to process data only on behalf of the Company and in accordance with these Terms. The Company does not grant such providers independent rights of use or ownership over any data.
- Given the decentralised nature of blockchain infrastructure, technical data may transit through or be stored in multiple jurisdictions. The Company takes reasonable steps to ensure that any transfer outside the British Virgin Islands provides an adequate level of protection consistent with recognised international standards. By participating in the Token sale, you consent to the transfer and processing of technical data in accordance with this paragraph 8.
- Subject to applicable law, you may request confirmation of whether data relating to you has been processed and where applicable, may request access, correction, or deletion of such data. To protect the integrity of the blockchain, deletion may not extend to on-chain transaction records or immutable logs required for compliance or audit purposes. The Company may decline any request that would impair its ability to comply with law, defend against claims, or maintain evidence of compliance.
- The Company may disclose logged data to competent authorities or regulators upon lawful request or where reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, regulation, or sanctions obligations. Such disclosure will be limited to the minimum data required to satisfy the request and shall be made in good faith.
- The Company provides no assurance that your local data-protection laws grant the same rights as those set out herein. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company disclaims all liability for any difference in data-protection rights between jurisdictions or for any loss arising from cross-border data transfer or processing.
- Any questions regarding this paragraph 8 or data-related practices may be directed to the Company at legal@dmfun.vg. The Company will respond in accordance with applicable law and within a reasonable time.

- Prior to commencing arbitration proceedings in accordance with this paragraph 10, you will notify the Company in writing of any Dispute within thirty (30) calendar days of the date it arises, so that you and the Company can attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute informally.

The invalidity or unenforceability of any paragraph in one jurisdiction shall not affect its validity in any other jurisdiction.
14. NON-WAIVER
The Company’s failure or delay to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. A waiver shall be effective only if made in writing and signed by an authorised representative of the Company.
15. LANGUAGE
These Terms are executed in the English language, which shall prevail over any translation. In the event of conflict between the English version and any translated version, the English version shall control and govern.
16. ENTIRE AGREEMENT
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings and communications between the parties. They cannot be modified except as specified in these Terms.
Certain Risks Relating to Purchase, Sale and Use of the Token
IMPORTANT NOTE: AS NOTED ELSEWHERE IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE TOKEN IS NOT BEING STRUCTURED OR SOLD AS A SECURITY OR ANY OTHER FORM OF INVESTMENT PRODUCT. ACCORDINGLY, NONE OF THE INFORMATION PRESENTED IN THIS SCHEDULE IS INTENDED TO FORM THE BASIS FOR ANY INVESTMENT DECISION AND NO SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS ARE MADE OR INTENDED. THE COMPANY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FROM: (I) RELIANCE ON ANY INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS SCHEDULE (II) ANY ERROR, OMISSION OR INACCURACY IN ANY SUCH INFORMATION (III) ANY ACTION RESULTING FROM SUCH INFORMATION OR (IV) THE SALE OR USE OF THE TOKEN.
By purchasing, holding and using a Token, you expressly acknowledges that you understand and assume a variety of risks (including without limitation the following risks):
1. Risk of changes in functionality
A Token does not have any rights, uses, purpose, attributes, functionalities or features, express or implied, except for those which are specifically described in the in Token Documentation and which may change from time to time.
2. Token is non-refundable
The Company is not obliged to provide Token holders with a refund related to a Token for any reason and Token holders acknowledge and agree that they will not receive money or other compensation in lieu of a refund. No promises of future performance or price are or will be made in respect to a Token, including no promise of inherent value, no promise of continuing payments, and no guarantee that Token will hold any particular value. Therefore, the recovery of spent resources may be impossible or may be subject to foreign laws or regulations, which may not be the same as the laws in the jurisdiction of Token.
3. Risks Associated with the related Blockchain and underlying protocol
Because a Token and the dm.fun ecosystem are based on blockchain technology, any malfunction, breakdown or abandonment of the relevant blockchain may have a material adverse effect on the dm.fun ecosystem or Tokens. Moreover, advances in cryptography, or technical advances such as the development of quantum computing, could present risks to Tokens and the dm.fun ecosystem by rendering ineffective the cryptographic consensus mechanism that underpins the relevant blockchain. The future of cryptography and security innovations is highly unpredictable.
Furthermore, Services available on the dm.fun ecosystem may require digital assets provided by a user to be deposited with, "staked" with and/or otherwise require interaction with various third-party decentralised finance protocols which primarily comprise smart contracts deployed on the relevant blockchain. These third-party decentralised finance protocols and the development team behind these protocols are independent third parties, so the Company and Group Entities have no control over these protocols or teams. These deployed smart contracts underlying the decentralised finance protocols may contain security vulnerabilities, errors, failures, bugs or economic loopholes which may be exploited by third parties, causing you to suffer losses in connection with the Services available on the dm.fun ecosystem. Neither the Company nor any Group Entity can be responsible for any such security vulnerabilities, errors, failures, bugs or economic loopholes.
4. Risk of Losing Access to Token Due to Loss of Private Key(s)
A private key, or a combination of private keys, is necessary to control and dispose of Token stored in your digital Wallet, vault or other storage mechanism. Accordingly, loss of requisite private key(s) associated with your Wallet, vault or other storage mechanism storing Token may result in loss of such Token. Moreover, any third party that gains access to such private key(s), including by gaining access to login credentials of a hosted wallet service used by you, may be able to misappropriate any Token held by you. The Company cannot be responsible for any such losses.
5. Risk of Hacking and Security Weaknesses
Hackers or other malicious groups or organisations may attempt to interfere with the dm.fun ecosystem or Token in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, malware attacks, denial of service attacks, consensus-based attacks, Sybil attacks, smurfing and spoofing. Furthermore, because the dm.fun ecosystem is based on open-source software, there is a risk that a third party or a member of any Group Entity may intentionally or unintentionally introduce weaknesses into the core infrastructure of the dm.fun ecosystem, which could negatively affect the dm.fun ecosystem and Token.
6. Risk of Uninsured Losses
Unlike in the case of bank accounts or accounts at financial institutions, a Token is uninsured unless you specifically obtain private insurance to insure them. Therefore, in the event of loss or loss of utility value, there is no public insurer or private insurance arranged by any Group Entity to provide recourse (and in any event, the Company is not obliged to compensate or insure you for any event of loss or loss of utility value).
7. Risks Associated with Uncertain Regulations and Enforcement Actions
The regulatory status of a Token and distributed ledger technology is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions, but numerous regulatory authorities across jurisdictions have been outspoken about considering the implementation of regulatory regimes which govern cryptocurrency markets. It is difficult to predict how or whether regulatory agencies may apply existing regulation with respect to such technology and its applications, including the dm.fun ecosystem and the Tokens. It is likewise difficult to predict how or whether legislatures or regulatory agencies may implement changes to law and regulation affecting distributed ledger technology and its applications, including the dm.fun ecosystem and Tokens. Regulatory actions could negatively impact the dm.fun ecosystem and Token in various ways, including, for purposes of illustration only, through a determination that Token is a regulated financial instrument that requires registration or licensing, the dm.fun ecosystem may not be able to provide regular service in certain areas. Any Group Entity may cease operations in a jurisdiction in the event that regulatory actions, or changes to law or regulation, make it illegal to operate in such jurisdiction, or commercially undesirable to obtain the necessary regulatory approval(s) to operate in such jurisdiction.
8. Risks Arising from Taxation
The tax characterisation of Token and these Terms is uncertain and may vary between jurisdictions. The Company intends to treat the Tokens and these Terms neither as an equity interest, nor as a debt interest in the Company for tax purposes. It is possible that the Company’s intended treatment of Token and these Terms may be challenged, so that the tax consequences to you and the Company relating to Token and these Terms could differ from those described above. You must seek its own tax advice in connection with purchasing, holding and utilising a Token, which may result in adverse tax consequences to you, including, without limitation, withholding taxes, transfer taxes, value added taxes, income taxes and similar taxes, levies, duties or other charges and tax reporting requirements.
9. Risk of alternative networks/ competitors
It is possible that alternative networks could be established in an attempt to facilitate services that are similar to the Services, or alternative networks could be established that utilise the same or similar code and protocol underlying Token and/or the dm.fun ecosystem. The dm.fun ecosystem may compete with these alternative networks, which could negatively impact the dm.fun ecosystem and/or Token.
10. Risk of Insufficient Interest in the dm.fun ecosystem or Distributed Applications
It is possible that the dm.fun ecosystem will not be used by a large number of individuals, companies and other entities or that there will be limited public interest in the creation and development of distributed ecosystems (such as that on the dm.fun ecosystem) more generally. Such lack of use or interest could negatively impact the development of the dm.fun ecosystem and therefore the potential utility of the Token.
11. Risks Associated with the Development and Maintenance of the dm.fun ecosystem
The dm.fun ecosystem is still under development and may undergo significant changes over time. Although it is intended for Tokens and the dm.fun ecosystem to follow the specifications set out on the Website and the relevant Group Entity will endeavour to work towards those (subject to internal business considerations), changes may be required to be made to the specifications of the Token or the dm.fun ecosystem for any number of reasons. This could create the risk that the Tokens or the dm.fun ecosystem, as further developed and maintained, may not meet your expectations or requirements at the time of purchase. Furthermore, despite the Company's good faith efforts to develop and maintain the dm.fun ecosystem, it is still possible that the dm.fun ecosystem will experience malfunctions or otherwise fail to be adequately developed or maintained, which may negatively impact the dm.fun ecosystem and Token.
12. Risks associated with the Solana blockchain and the Metaplex Genesis protocol
The Tokens are intended to be issued and operate on the Solana blockchain and utilize the Metaplex Genesis protocol for certain core functionalities. The success of the dm.fun ecosystem and the Tokens depend on the continued viability, stability and security of both the Solana network and Metaplex Genesis. Solana is an emerging, high throughput blockchain that has experienced network outages, congestion and other technical disruptions in the past. Similarly, Metaplex Genesis is a relatively new protocol whose long-term development, support, and governance are uncertain. Any material adverse changes to Solana or Metaplex Genesis, including protocol failures, security breaches, regulatory restrictions, or loss of developer/community support, could impair the functionality of the Tokens or make them unusable.
13. Risk of regulatory changes
The current regulation of tokens (including the Tokens), token offerings, cryptocurrencies and blockchain technologies is (i) undeveloped and likely to rapidly evolve (ii) varies significantly among international, federal, state and local jurisdictions and (iii) subject to significant uncertainty. Various legislative and executive bodies in the U.S.A. and in other countries may in the future, adopt laws, regulations, guidance, or other actions, which may severely impact the development and growth of the dm.fun ecosystem and the adoption and utility of the Tokens. Failure by the Company or certain users of the dm.fun ecosystem to comply with any laws, rules and regulations, some of which may not exist yet or are subject to interpretation and may be subject to change, could result in a variety of adverse consequences, including civil penalties and fines.
As blockchain networks and blockchain assets have grown in popularity and in market size, federal and state agencies in the U.S.A, the BVI and other jurisdictions have begun to take interest in, and in some cases regulate, their use and operation. The regulation of non-currency use of blockchain assets is also uncertain. For example, The Commodities Futures Trading Commission in the U.S.A has publicly taken the position that certain blockchain assets are commodities, and the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC") has issued a public report stating federal securities laws require treating some blockchain assets as securities. To the extent that a domestic government or quasi-governmental agency exerts regulatory authority over a blockchain network or asset, the dm.fun ecosystem and the Tokens may be materially and adversely affected.
Blockchain networks also face an uncertain regulatory landscape in many jurisdictions such as the European Union, China and Russia. Various jurisdictions may, in the near future, adopt laws, regulations or directives that affect the Solana network and the dm.fun ecosystem. For instance, China has adopted certain regulations prohibiting ICOs. Such laws, regulations or directives may directly and negatively impact our business. The effect of any future regulatory change is impossible to predict, but such change could be substantial and materially adverse to the development and growth of the dm.fun ecosystem, the sale and utility of the Tokens.
New or changing laws and regulations or interpretations of existing laws and regulations, in jurisdictions around the world (including those where you are domiciled), may materially and adversely impact the value of the currency in which the Tokens may be exchanged, if applicable, the liquidity of the Tokens, the ability to access marketplaces or exchanges on which to trade the Tokens, and the structure, rights and the ability to transfer Tokens. As a result, there could be legal disputes over the interpretation of smart contracts used in connection with the Project undermining its functionality.
In addition, non-governmental parties may bring private legal actions against the Company and/or its Affiliates, which may result in curtailment of, or inability to operate, the dm.fun ecosystem as intended, or judgments, settlements, fines or penalties against any or all of them.
To the extent licenses or other authorizations are required in one or more jurisdictions in which the Company operates or will operate, there is no guarantee that the Company will be granted such licenses or authorizations. The Company may need to change its business model to comply with these licensing and/or registration requirements (or any other legal or regulatory requirements) in order to avoid violating applicable laws or regulations or because of the cost of such compliance. Uncertainty in how the legal and regulatory environment will develop could negatively impact the Company.
14. Risks relating to data protection, security, privacy, and other government and industry-specific requirements
There are a number of data protection, security, privacy and other government and industry-specific requirements, including those that require companies to notify individuals of data security incidents involving certain types of personal data. Security compromises could harm the reputation of the dm.fun ecosystem, erode user confidence in the effectiveness of its security measures, and negatively impact its ability to attract new users, or cause existing users to stop using the dm.fun ecosystem.
15. Inadequate disclosure of information
As at the date hereof, the dm.fun ecosystem is still under development and its design concepts, consensus mechanisms, algorithms, codes, and other technical details and parameters may be constantly and frequently updated and changed. Although these Terms contain the most current information relating to the dm.fun ecosystem, it is not absolutely complete and may still be adjusted and updated by the team from time to time. The team has no ability and obligation to keep Token holders informed of every detail (including development progress and expected milestones) regarding the project to develop the dm.fun ecosystem, hence insufficient information disclosure is inevitable and reasonable.
16. Risk of an Unfavourable Fluctuation of Currency Value
The Company intends to use the proceeds from selling Tokens to support the maintenance and development of the dm.fun ecosystem. The proceeds of the sale of Token will be mainly denominated in SOL and possibly other digital assets and may be converted into other cryptographic and fiat currencies. If the value of digital assets fluctuates unfavourably during or after the sale of Token, the relevant Group Entity may not be able to support development plans, or may not be able to maintain Token in the manner that it intended.
17. Risk of Dissolution of the Company, any Group Entity or the dm.fun ecosystem
Start-up companies such as the Company involve a high degree of risk. Financial and operating risks confronting start-up companies are significant, and the Company is not immune to these. Start-up companies often experience unexpected problems in the areas of product development, marketing, financing, and general management, among others, which frequently cannot be solved.
It is possible that, due to any number of reasons, including, but not limited to, an unfavourable fluctuation in the value of cryptographic and fiat currencies, decrease in the utility of the Token due to negative adoption of Tokens, the failure of commercial relationships, or intellectual property ownership challenges, Tokens may no longer be viable to operate and the Company or any Group Entity may be dissolved.
18. Risks Arising from Lack of Governance Rights
Because Tokens confer no governance rights of any kind with respect to the Company or any Group Entity, all decisions involving the Company or its Affiliates will be made by the relevant Group Entity at its sole and absolute discretion, including, but not limited to, decisions to discontinue the operations or development of Tokens, to create and sell more Tokens for use within Tokens, or to sell or liquidate any Group Entity. These decisions could adversely affect Tokens and any Tokens held by you.
19. Risks Involving Cloud Storage
As Tokens may provide or utilise a decentralised cloud storage service for users and applications, therefore the services provided on the dm.fun ecosystem ("Services") are susceptible to a number of risks related to the storage of data in the cloud. The Services may involve the storage of large amounts of sensitive and/or proprietary information, which may be compromised in the event of a cyberattack or other malicious activity. Similarly, the Services may be interrupted and files may become temporarily unavailable in the event of such an attack or malicious activity. Because users can utilise a variety of hardware and software that may interface with the dm.fun ecosystem, there is the risk that the Services may become unavailable or interrupted based on a failure of interoperability or an inability to integrate these third-party systems and devices that the Group Entities do not control. The risk that the Services may face increasing interruptions and the dm.fun ecosystem may face additional security vulnerabilities could adversely affect the dm.fun ecosystem and therefore the future utility of any Token held by you.
20. Risks associated with a lack of markets for Token
There is no prior market for Tokens and the sale of Tokens may not result in an active or liquid market for Tokens. A Token is designed to be utilised solely within the dm.fun ecosystem, hence there may be illiquidity risk with respect to Token held by you. A Token is not a currency issued by any central bank or national, supra-national or quasi-national organisation, nor is it backed by any hard assets or other credit nor is it a "commodity" in the usual and traditional sense of that word. The Company is not responsible for, nor does the Company pursue, the circulation and trading of Token on any market. Trading of Tokens will merely depend on the consensus on its value between the relevant market participants. No one is obliged to purchase any Token from any Token holder, nor does anyone guarantee the liquidity or market price of Token to any extent at any time. Furthermore, a Token may not be resold to a purchaser who is a citizen, national, resident (tax or otherwise), domiciliary or green card holder of a Prohibited Jurisdiction or a Restricted Territory or to users where the purchase of Token may be in violation of applicable laws. Accordingly, the Company cannot ensure that there will be any demand or market for the Tokens, or that the purchase price paid for Token is indicative of any market valuation or market price for Token.
Even if secondary trading of Token is facilitated by third party exchanges, such exchanges may be relatively new and subject to little or no regulatory oversight, making them more susceptible to fraud or manipulation. Furthermore, to the extent that third parties do ascribe an external exchange value to Token (e.g., as denominated in a digital or fiat currency), such value may be extremely volatile, decline below the purchase price which you had paid for Token, and/or diminish to zero.
21. Loss of Talent
The development of the dm.fun ecosystem depends on the continued co-operation of the existing technical team and expert consultants, who are highly knowledgeable and experienced in their respective sectors. The loss of any member may adversely affect the dm.fun ecosystem or its future development. Furthermore, stability and cohesion within the team is critical to the overall development of the dm.fun ecosystem. There is the possibility that conflict within the team and/or departure of core personnel may occur, resulting in negative influence on the project in the future.
22. Failure to develop
The dm.fun ecosystem is still in the developmental stage, hence there may be large changes to the final design before the official version is released. There is the risk that the development of the dm.fun ecosystem will not be executed or implemented as planned, or may not meet any expectation of purchasers of Token, for a variety of reasons, including without limitation the event of a decline in the prices of any digital asset, virtual currency or Token, unforeseen technical difficulties, and shortage of development funds for activities.
23. Unanticipated Risks
Cryptographic tokens such as Token are a new and untested technology. In addition to the aforementioned risks, there may be other risks associated with your purchase, holding and use of Token, including those that the Company cannot anticipate. Such risks may further materialise as unanticipated variations or combinations of the risks discussed in this Schedule.
