Important Notice Regarding Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver
WHEN YOU ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT, YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND THAW DIGITAL INDIVIDUALLY AND WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR IN YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL TO RESOLVE ANY SUCH DISPUTE.
PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY THE “DISPUTE RESOLUTION” SECTION BELOW FOR DETAILS REGARDING WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION/JURY TRIAL.
1.0 Agreement
By using the Indentura Services, you agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you don’t agree to be bound by this Agreement, do not use the Indentura Services.
If you are accessing and using the Indentura Services on behalf of a legal entity (such as a trust or limited liability company of which you are a member), you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to this Agreement. In that case, “you” and “your” will refer to that entity.
2.0 Privacy; e-Signature Agreement
2.1 Privacy. Indentura Services are provided primarily using either (a) the Ethereum (“ETH”) blockchain and related ERC-20 tokens and are therefore subject to the privacy policy available at https://ethereum.org/en/privacy-policy or (b) the Solana (“SOL”) blockchain and tokens that follow Solana Token Standard(s) are therefore subject to the privacy policy available at https://solana.com/privacy-policy.
Additionally, most blockchains utilize distributed ledger technology, and blockchain transactions are often publicly available and permanently preserved. That information includes date and time of transaction submission and confirmation, tokens exchanged in any transaction, and digital wallet addresses involved in that transaction. Thaw Digital has no ability to alter or obscure transactions on blockchains used in connection with the Indentura Services. Please be aware of the information you provide when entering into blockchain transactions and conduct yourself accordingly for your desired level of privacy.
2.2 e-Signature Agreement. Interactions utilizing third-party wallets linked to blockchain addresses or accounts require digital signatures to authorize transactions. By using Indentura Services, you agree that any electronic signature, whether digital or encrypted, that is intended to authenticate a writing shall have the same force and effect as manual signatures to the fullest extent of the law. "Electronic signature" means any electronic sound, symbol, or process attached to or logically associated with a record and executed and adopted by a party with the intent to sign such record, including without limitation a checkbox, facsimile, or email signature.
3.0 Who may use the Indentura Services
To use the Indentura Services, you must be legally competent to form a binding contract and be eighteen (18) years old or older to create a Depositor Account (as defined below).

3.1 Depositor Wallets.
Your identity on the Site will be linked to one or more blockchain addresses of your choosing. To utilize the Indentura Services, you will need a blockchain address and a third-party wallet provider. We are not responsible for your account with a third-party wallet provider, and you may be subject to such third-party wallet provider’s terms and conditions and privacy policies. You should review such third-party terms and conditions and privacy policies carefully. By using a self-custody wallet, you own any data, information, or material originated by you that you submit in the course of using the Indentura Services. Thaw Digital cannot access the contents of your third-party digital wallet(s), and it is your responsibility to keep your wallet(s) secure. Thaw Digital does not have custody or control of your third-party wallet(s) and has no ability to retrieve or transfer its contents.

4.0 Modifications of this Agreement
We may update this Agreement from time to time in our sole discretion. If we do, we will notify you by posting a revised Agreement on this page with a revised “Last Updated” date, and we may (but are not required to) send other communications notifying you of such an update. It is important that you review this Agreement whenever we update it.
Thaw Digital may require you to provide consent to the updated Agreement in a specified manner before further use of the Indentura Services is permitted. Otherwise, by continuing to use the Indentura Services after we have posted an updated Agreement, it means that you accept and agree to the changes. If you do not agree to be bound by the changes, you may not use the Indentura Services anymore.
Because our services are evolving over time, we may change or discontinue all or any part of the Indentura Services, at any time, at our sole discretion.
5.0 No Advisory or Legal Services
Nothing in this Agreement is, or shall be construed to be, legal advice from Thaw Digital to you. Neither Thaw Digital nor its agents, employees, or affiliates serve as your advisor, agent, broker, or fiduciary and do not provide, or offer to provide, financial, investment, legal, or tax advice.
6.0 Disclosure of risks
6.1 Due diligence. When making any investment decision, you must rely on your own examination of the potential benefits and risks involved. You should thoroughly review all transaction documents provided to you and seek further independent financial, legal, and tax advice to determine whether you believe a proposed investment meets your needs in light of your personal objectives, financial circumstances, and tax situation.
6.2 General Investment Risks. Here are important caveats as you consider any investment opportunity:
The past performance of an investment may be based upon a finite time or a period of extreme market activity and is never a guarantee of future results.
Expected returns or projected earnings are based upon certain assumptions that may, or may not, be realized and are likewise not guaranteed.
6.3 Forward-looking statements. You should not rely on forward-looking statements regarding any investment opportunity. Forward-looking statements are based upon beliefs about potential future activity, based upon an analysis of information that is currently available.
The words “aim,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “design,” “estimate,” “expect,” “potential,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “project,” “result,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions and are not guarantees of future performance, which may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties, and factors that are beyond our control. These risks could result in the loss of your investment.
6.4 Blockchain risks. You acknowledge that engaging in financial transactions on the blockchain has inherent risks and is susceptible to interruption. By using the Indentura Services you acknowledge, agree to, and accept the following risks:
Information transmission can be disrupted. You accept the risk that our Site could be affected by technical difficulties that impede your ability to obtain, view, or deliver information or execute transaction, including in time sensitive transactions. We do not control the public blockchains that you are interacting with.
Development Risks. The ETH network means the Ethereum mainnet and consensus blockchain for such mainnet (networkID:1, chainID:1) as recognized by the official Go Ethereum Client, or, if applicable, the network and blockchain generally recognized as the legitimate successor thereto. The ETH network has undergone various changes since its inception, including “merge” events to migrate to new network with additional or different features or capabilities. Likewise, the Solana blockchain remains under development, which creates technological and security risks when using the Indentura Services. You should understand the risks of transactions on the ETH, SOL or any other blockchain before engaging in transactions utilizing tokens on that blockchain.
Blur and Tensor Risks. The Indentura Services are provided for individuals to take collective advantage of Blur.io’s or Tensor.trade’s respective platforms. Thaw Digital has no control over either Blur.io or Tensor.trade, nor does Thaw have any decision over such third parties’ decisions, if any, regarding points, rewards or tokens that they may from time to time make available through their platforms or disburse. You should understand the Blur.io and Tensor.trade platforms and associated risks before using the Indentura Services.
Lead Strategists. Lead Strategists are primarily responsible for the ETH, SOL or NFTs in their pooled wallet. Any actions taken by the Lead Strategist are not the responsibility of Indentura or Thaw Digital.
Compromised Digital Wallets. The digital wallet which you use for the Indentura Services can be accessed by anybody with access to that wallet’s seed phrase or private key or anybody who is granted access to it through Smart Contract, even if that seed phrase, private key, or granted access is done maliciously or unintentionally. If your wallet is compromised, you must contact us immediately (you can report such a breach by emailing support@thawdigital.com). Thaw Digital is not responsible for any unauthorized access to or use of your digital wallet. Due to the contract locking mechanisms, it may not be possible to for Thaw Digital to take immediate action in the event your digital wallet becomes compromised.
Cyberattacks may occur. You understand that fraud and cyberattacks occur and that your data may not be completely safe on any computer system or network. However, there are certain steps that you can take to protect the safety and security of your data and you agree to take reasonable measures to do so. Transactions on the ETH blockchain are irreversible, and losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions may not be recoverable.
Regulation. The regulatory status of cryptographic tokens, digital assets, and blockchain technology is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions. It is likewise difficult to predict how or whether any governmental authority may make changes to existing laws, regulations, or rules that will affect cryptographic tokens, digital assets, blockchain technology, or its applications. Such changes could limit the Indentura Services or the transferability of digital assets.
Third-party services disruption. You understand and agree that the Indentura Services requires the use of third-party resources which are not under the direction or control of Thaw Digital. These resources may become unavailable during times of especially high traffic, or due to potential changes of access to those third-party resources. You accept the risk that interruption or inaccuracy of third-party services may impede your ability to obtain, view, or deliver information or execute transactions, including in time-sensitive transactions.
6.5 You are responsible for your decisions. Indentura Services are offered to you upon the express condition that you will fully evaluate your own financial circumstances and the terms of the fund pooling opportunities offered to you. You are fully responsible for your own financial decisions. You understand and agree that you are solely responsible for determining the nature, potential value, suitability, and appropriateness of these risks for yourself.
6.6 Blockchain knowledge. By utilizing Indentura Services, you confirm that you have good and sufficient experience and understanding of the functionality, usage, storage, transmission mechanisms, and other material characteristics of cryptographic tokens, token storage mechanisms (such as token wallets), blockchain technology, blockchain-like technology, and blockchain-based software systems to understand this Agreement and to fully appreciate the risks.
Further, by utilizing these Indentura Services you understand the risks associated with using a “hot wallet” to secure valuable digital assets, and users who use a “cold storage wallet” for their assets understand the proper security measures to implement regarding the use of such cold storage devices.
6.7 Tax Risks. Digital assets or payments received by or through the Indentura Services may be subject to certain tax reporting obligations. It will be your responsibility to account for, file, and pay any applicable taxes. It is your responsibility to determine the potential tax consequences of your receipt, use, or transfer of your digital assets including those transferred by or through the Indentura Services.
7.0 Smart Contracts
Transfers and other Indentura Services offered on the Site are achieved through smart contracts, which are the technical mechanism for executing a transaction in an automated or partially-automated manner on the blockchain (“Smart Contracts”). The ETH and SOL blockchains provide immutable ledgers of all transactions that occur thereon. We neither own nor control your non-custodial wallet of choice, your preferred cryptocurrency exchange, the ETH or SOL blockchains, your browser, or any other third-party site, product, or service that you might access, visit, or use for the purpose of enabling you to utilize any Indentura Services.
Transactions on the ETH and SOL blockchains are irreversible, and any token exchanged in such a transaction may be unrecoverable.
8.0 Creating and using a Depositor Account
To access all the features of the Indentura Site or to acquire Indentura Services, you are required to submit your wallet address via the Indentura interface (a “Depositor Account”). Any ETH, SOL or other tokens deposited directly into a Indentura wallet without using the Indentura interface will not be construed as being a Indentura Depositor.
