6.0 Disclosure of risks

All purchases – including token and real property interests – carry significant risks. There is no assurance that any purchase will, or is likely to, achieve specific results or avoid partial or total loss. Purchases made based on information from the VTR Connect Services or purchases from VTR Connect directly are subject to the following risks, among others.

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 and ETH risks

You acknowledge that engaging in financial transactions on the blockchain has inherent risks and is susceptible to interruption. By using the VTR Connect 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.
• ETH “Merge” 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. You should understand the risks of transactions on the ETH or any other blockchain before engaging in transactions utilizing tokens on that blockchain.
• Compromised Digital Wallets. The digital wallet which you register to your account 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 NFTSUPPORT@VTRCONNECT.COM. VTR Connect is not responsible for any unauthorized access to or use of your digital wallet.
• 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 VTR Connect Services or the transferability of digital assets.
• Third-party services disruption. You understand and agree that the VTR Connect Services may require the use of third-party resources which are not under the direction or control of VTR Connect. 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.
• Stablecoin risks. Stablecoins backed by reserve assets with clear fiat currency value (such as $USDC) have various risk factors to be considered such as the safety and liquidity of the reserve assets, regulatory risk, counterparty risk (including reserve custodians), transparency over reserves and the extent to which the underlying assets are truly uncorrelated, the legal rights of stablecoin holders, and governance and operational risks. The collateral backing digital currency based stablecoins is held in smart contracts and the underlying digital currency can be immediately liquidated if the value of such digital currency falls below a certain threshold. Further, if the underlying digital currency loses too much value, the system may become under-collateralized and there is potential the system supporting the stablecoin will be shut down and the stablecoin itself available for, though not subject to, a one-time redemption in exchange for underlying collateral.
• Risk of Fraud. Digital tokens and the holders of digital tokens are often the targets of individuals attempting to access those tokens through fraudulent or duplicitous means. The individuals perpetrating these frauds will often use QR codes, malicious links, or social engineering scams where they pose as legitimate actors such as VTR Connect to gain access to individuals’ digital wallet or the seed phrase which grants access to that digital wallet. Do not ever electronically store your seed phrase, give that seed phrase to others, or click on unknown links. Before interacting with a website or social media account, take extra care to confirm that is the official website or social media account of the intended party and not a person posing at that account/individual fraudulently. For example, there is a known scam through which bad actors have stolen digital assets by posing as the sponsor of a project and have posted social media or other links (which then install malware or compromise wallet credentials) pretending to “airdrop” new digital assets to existing holders. You should understand the common forms of fraud in the exchanges of digital assets and protect yourself against those risks. As a part of these security measures, you should understand the VTR Connect communications policy, including the policy regarding stealth drops and claims articulated in section 12.5 of this Agreement.

6.6 You are responsible for your decisions.

VTR Connect Services are offered to you upon the express condition that you will fully evaluate your own financial circumstances and the terms of the investment opportunity 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.

6.7 Blockchain knowledge.

By utilizing VTR Connect 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 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.

6.8 Tax Risks.

Digital assets or payments received by or through the VTR 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 VTR Services.

7.0 Blockchain Specific Issues

7.1 Smart Contracts.

Sales and other transfers 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 blockchain provides an immutable ledger of all transactions that occur on the ETH blockchain. We neither own nor control your non-custodial wallet of choice, your preferred cryptocurrency exchange, the ETH blockchain, 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 VTR Connect Services. Transactions on the ETH blockchain are irreversible, and any token exchanged in such a transaction may be unrecoverable. Non-fungible tokens (“NFTs”) exist only via the ownership record maintained on the blockchain. You are solely responsible for evaluating the Smart Contract and any vulnerabilities thereof. VTR Connect is not responsible for any loss of ownership of any NFT including any loss as a result of loss of password or log-in information, corrupted files, viruses, phishing, attacks against the Site or blockchain, transfer to non-compatible digital address, accidental burning, unauthorized third-party activities, or any other reason.

7.2 Gas fees.

Transactions on the blockchain require the payment of a transaction fee (“Gas”) which funds the network of computers that confirm transactions on the blockchain. This means that you will need to pay Gas for each transaction that you enable via the Site. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, you will be solely responsible to pay any Gas for any transaction (including failed transactions) that you prompt via the Site. The value of the Gas fee changes, often unpredictably, and is entirely outside of the control of VTR Connect, and any digital asset transaction may fail if you do not have sufficient funds to pay these gas fees in addition to the purchase price of the digital asset.
