Acknowledgement of Risk

You should carefully review, acknowledge, understand and assume the risks set forth in this Agreement as well as other risks associated with our Services, all of which could render your digital assets worthless or of little value. You acknowledge and agree that you are accessing the Services on your own and not on behalf of other parties. Digital assets can increase or decrease in value or become worthless. You acknowledge, understand, and agree that you may lose some or all of your digital asssets. You acknowledge, understand, and agree that you may never receive the digital assets in your account and may lose the entire amount you paid for the digital assets on the Platform. You should consult your financial advisor, legal or tax professional regarding your specific situation and financial condition and carefully consider whether trading or holding digital assets is suitable for you.

Arkham is not registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or any other financial services regulatory body and does not offer the Services in the United States or to U.S. persons. You acknowledge that digital assets are not subject to protections or insurance provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, or similar bodies located in other jurisdictions. Arkham does not provide any service, product, opportunity, and/or content that constitutes a regulated financial service or regulated financial service product in any jurisdiction in which Arkham operates.

You acknowledge, understand, and agree that in using the Services, you have sufficient knowledge to utilize the Services and to make sure that any such usage is accurate and intentional. You acknowledge and agree that Arkham may, in some cases, and in its sole discretion, suspend your account activity and require secondary confirmation or additional due diligence checks if your account is engaged in suspicious or unusual activity.

You acknowledge, understand, and agree that digital assets may have no present or future value. Your use or transfer of digital assets is subject to all requirements imposed on such transactions, including any requirements to comply with applicable laws, rules, and regulations; any requirements to enter into additional terms and conditions; and any requirements to provide additional information, such as information required for processes commonly referred to as know your customer (KYC) or anti-money laundering (AML) procedures. You acknowledge that use of digital assets, cryptocurrencies, and blockchain technology involve a high degree of risk. The use or accessing of digital assets may result in a loss of part or all of their value. Digital assets, and the blockchain technology on which they are based, are new and rapidly changing, and therefore may contain technical flaws and may be susceptible to malicious cyberattacks.

You acknowledge, understand, and agree that Arkham may cease supporting any type of digital assets in our sole discretion with or without notice. There is a risk that you may experience losses due to the inability to sell or convert digital assets into a preferred alternative asset immediately or where conversion is possible but at a loss. Arkham is not responsible for any loss you may incur, directly or indirectly, in connection with Arkham’s decision not to support any type of digital assets.

You acknowledge, understand, and agree that (1) your use of the Services may have tax consequences for you; (2) you are solely responsible for compliance with your tax obligations; and (3) Arkham bears no liability or responsibility with respect to any tax consequences to you. Any fees generated or incurred through your use of the Services shall be your sole responsibility to track, quantify, and account for.

You acknowledge, understand, and agree that transactions in connection with the Services and your self-custody digital wallet cannot be reversed. Once you send digital assets to a digital address or smart contract, there is a risk that you may lose access to such digital assets indefinitely. For example, a digital address may have been entered incorrectly, or a digital address may belong to a person or entity that will not return the digital assets to you. You may lose your private key for your self-custody digital wallet. For example, if the private key has been backed up on paper and subsequently lost or stolen, or the private key has been hacked or stolen. Arkham cannot access your self-custody digital wallet. You are responsible for any transactions executed by or involving your self-custody digital wallet, regardless of whether you approved such transactions.

Arkham does not own or control the underlying software protocols which govern the operation of digital assets. Generally, the underlying protocols are open source, and anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute them. Arkham assumes no responsibility for the operation of the underlying protocols and does not guarantee the functionality or security of network operations. In particular, the underlying protocols may be subject to sudden changes in operating rules or applicable transaction histories, including but not limited to code changes which are commonly referred to as protocol “forks.” Any such operating changes may materially affect the availability, value, functionality, and/or the name of the digital assets in your self-custody digital wallet. Arkham does not control the timing and features of these operating changes.

You acknowledge and accept the risks of operating changes to digital assets and digital asset protocols and agree that Arkham is not responsible for such operating changes and not liable for any loss of value you may experience as a result of such changes in operating rules or Arkham’s decisions made in relation to such operating changes, including, without limitation, the selection of one fork versus another.

In the event of any such operational change, Arkham reserves the right to take such steps as may be necessary to protect the security and safety of assets, transactions, and accounts relating to the Services, including without limitation, temporarily suspending operations for the involved digital assets; Arkham will endeavor to provide you notice of its response to any material operating change; however, such changes are outside of Arkham’s control and may occur without notice to Arkham. Arkham’s response to any operating change is subject to its sole discretion and may include deciding not to support any certain digital assets, forks, new assets, and or protocols.

You acknowledge and accept that Arkham has sole discretion to determine its response to any operating change and that we have no responsibility to assist you with unsupported currencies or protocols. You further acknowledge and accept that Arkham has no responsibility to support a particular digital asset and may list and de-list any digital asset at any time in its sole and absolute discretion with or without notice to you.

Account Creation

To use the Services, you must create an account with Arkham. You may be required to comply with additional requirements to open an account or use the Services in the jurisdiction in which you are located. By creating an account or using the Services, you represent and warrant that you have the lawful right to access the Services and that you can comply with all of the terms of this Agreement. You authorize Arkham and Arkham Service Providers to make inquiries to verify your identity to confirm your eligibility to access the platform, to protect you or us from fraud or financial crime, or as we in our sole discretion determine is necessary to comply with this Agreement and applicable law. You represent and warrant that you are the sole owner of the account you create and no third party can conduct transactions, control or contribute digital assets to your account. If you suspect that your account or any of your security details have been compromised or if you become aware of any fraud or attempted fraud or any other security incident (including a cyber-security attack) affecting you and/or Arkham (collectively a “Security Breach”), you must notify Arkham Support immediately at [email protected] and provide accurate and up to date information throughout the duration of the Security Breach. You must take any steps that we reasonably require to reduce or manage any Security Breach.

Deposit of Crypto and Issuance of Fiat Balance

The Services require you to have sufficient balances of digital assets in your account. We only support certain types of digital assets. Arkham may from time to time determine types of digital assets that will be supported or cease to be supported. If you attempt to deposit any digital asset that Arkham does not support, you may lose such digital asset. Neither Arkham nor any Arkham Service Provider is liable for your loss, although Arkham may, in its sole and absolute discretion, attempt to identify and return such digital assets (but neither Arkham nor any Arkham Service Provider has any obligation to do so). If we do so, we may charge a fee to cover our costs and expenses relating to such identification and transmission of such digital assets, which may be withheld from the digital asset that was the subject of the unsupported deposit attempt.

Transaction Execution

The Services may allow you to conduct transactions on digital assets. The types of transactions you can make may include market and limit orders, stop loss orders, stop loss limit orders, or such other types or functionality as is made available to you through the Platform from time to time. You represent and warrant that you understand the nature of these transactions. If you do not understand the nature of these transactions, you should immediately cease your use of the Services. Arkham reserves the right to decide which trading pairs are permitted on the Platform in its sole discretion. The digital assets that Arkham supports may change with or without notice to you at any time.

We reserve the right to and may, in some cases, cancel, accept or reject trades, impose deposit limits and withdrawal holds, or engage in any other administrative action, including correcting errors, in our sole discretion, and you acknowledge and agree that neither Arkham nor any Arkham Service Provider is liable to you for any such administrative action. All trades are final and non-refundable. We are not liable for the loss you may incur if you have insufficient balance to complete a trade or a partial trade.

You agree and authorize us the right to offset any negative balances in your account by selling digital assets in your account in our discretion.

If your account remains closed or dormant for a certain period of time, we reserve the right to report any remaining funds in your account as unclaimed property in accordance with abandoned property and escheat laws or their international equivalents. We will use reasonable efforts to give you written notice of any such reporting to the communication details on file with us in relation to your account. If you fail to respond to such notice within a reasonable time or as otherwise required by law, we may deliver such digital assets to the applicable jurisdiction’s authorities as unclaimed property. We reserve the right to deduct a reasonable fee for the delivery of unclaimed property, as permitted by law.

Transaction Limits

The use of all Services may be subject to a limit on the amount of volume, stated in U.S. Dollar terms, you may transact or transfer in a given period (e.g., daily). Your transaction limits may vary depending on your payment method, verification steps you have completed, and other factors. Arkham reserves the right to change applicable limits, and to refuse to raise your limits, as we deem necessary in our sole discretion.

Reversals & Cancelations

You cannot cancel, reverse, or change any transaction marked as complete or pending. If your payment is not successful or reversed or if your account has insufficient funds, you authorize Arkham, in its sole discretion, either to cancel the transaction or to debit your other payment methods, in any amount necessary to complete the transaction. You are responsible for maintaining an adequate balance and/or sufficient credit limits in order to avoid overdraft, non-sufficient funds (NSF), or similar fees charged by your payment provider. We reserve the right to refuse to process, or to cancel, correct, clawback, or reverse, any transaction or transfers in our sole discretion, even after funds have been debited from your account(s), in response to a subpoena, court order, or other government order; or if we suspect the transaction may: involve money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or any other type of financial crime; be erroneous; or relate to a prohibited use or a prohibited business. In such instances, Arkham will reverse the transaction and we are under no obligation to reinstate a purchase or sale order at the same price or on the same terms as the canceled transaction.

Market Manipulation

Market manipulation is strictly prohibited. You agree that you will not engage in market manipulation of any kind through the Services. Market manipulation includes any and all actions taken by any market participant or a person acting in concert with a participant which are intended to (1) deceive, mislead, or improperly take advantage of other users or Arkham; (2) control or manipulate the price or trading volume of any digital asset; or (3) aid, abet, enable, finance, support, or endorse either of the above.

Self-trading is strictly prohibited. You agree that you will not (1) intentionally or unintentionally engage in self-trading; (2) use any means to circumvent any self-trade prevention feature adopted on the Platform; or (3) conduct transactions in multiple accounts coordinated or controlled by one person entity or group. Arkham is not responsible for any loss incurred by self-trade prevention features.

*Fees.*

You agree to pay all fees specified in our fee schedule (“Fees”), which Arkham will charge upon execution of any deposit, withdrawal, or transaction (as applicable). Your use of the Services may also incur third party fees for which you are solely responsible.

*Taxes.*

You alone are responsible for determining what taxes apply to your use of the Services. You agree that Arkham has no responsibility or liability for determining what taxes apply or for collecting, reporting, withholding, or remitting any taxes arising from any trades or transactions made using the Services, except as provided by law.

Custody and title of digital assets

Digital assets held within your account are assets held in custody by Arkham or Arkham Service Providers for you. Title to digital assets within your account remains with you at all times and does not transfer to Arkham, except as provided herein. The digital assets in your account are not our property, are not loaned to us, are not subject to the claims of our creditors, and we do not treat your digital assets as our property. A court may disagree with our treatment of your digital assets and subject them to the claims of our creditors. Except as required by a facially valid court order, or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, we won’t sell, transfer, loan, hypothecate, or otherwise alienate any digital assets in your account unless you instruct us to do so, it’s required by law or a valid court order, or your assets must be liquidated pursuant to Arkham’s Margin Trading Rules.

Withdrawal

You may be able to transfer digital assets from your account to a digital wallet you control. You can withdraw the total amount of any digital assets from your account less any fees Arkham charges associated with such withdrawal or transaction. When you transmit a withdrawal transaction to us, you authorize us to remove the digital assets from your account to a wallet address that you specify. You acknowledge and agree that neither Arkham nor any Arkham Service Provider is responsible for any loss of digital assets resulting from your providing inaccurate information in any withdrawal instruction. We may, in our sole discretion, suspend your ability to withdraw digital assets from your account at any time to ensure compliance with these terms or any applicable law, regulation, legal order, or administrative or legal obligation or guidance. You represent and warrant that you will only transfer digital assets from Arkham to a wallet owned solely by you and not by any third party. By providing Arkham a wallet address to be used for withdrawals, you represent and warrant that you are the sole and owner of such wallet address.

No Offer of Securities

THE WEBSITE, THE SERVICES, THE CONTENT, AND THE INFORMATION INCLUDED THEREIN ARE FOR GENERAL INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANY MATERIAL ON THE PLATFORM BE USED OR CONSIDERED AS AN OFFER TO SELL OR A SOLICITATION OF AN OFFER TO BUY ANY DIGITAL ASSET, SECURITY, FUTURE OR OTHER FINANCIAL PRODUCT OR INSTRUMENT SPONSORED OR MANAGED BY ARKHAM. THE PLATFORM, THE SERVICES, AND THE CONTENT ARE DIRECTED AT AND MADE AVAILABLE SOLELY TO PERSONS IN JURISDICTIONS IN WHICH THE PURCHASE AND SALE OF DIGITAL ASSETS AND RELATED PRODUCTS IS LEGALLY PERMISSIBLE.

Sanctions and Prohibited Jurisdictions

The Services and Content are not offered to some or all residents of several jurisdictions, including, for example, the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, UAE, the Netherlands, and all countries subject to sanctions (“Prohibited Jurisdictions”).

The Services and Content shall not be considered a solicitation to any person in Prohibited Jurisdictions or any jurisdiction where such solicitation is illegal. Moreover, relevant legal restrictions or considerations may apply in your individual circumstances (including those based upon the risks of investing in digital assets), therefore, you are advised to consult with your legal, accounting, and other professional advisors prior to engaging in any transactions or services described herein. You agree not to utilize a virtual private network (VPN) or any other geolocation obfuscation tools for the purpose of concealing your country of residence or location when accessing our Services.

Arkham does not offer the Services and Content to U.S. Residents. Relatedly, Arkham is not conducting any activity pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act or the Commodity Exchange Act (each as amended from time to time), and therefore Arkham is not registered in any capacity with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, nor their relevant self-regulatory organizations. Arkham has ascertained that the transactions conducted on Arkham and pursuant to this Agreement (including this section on Prohibited Customers and Jurisdictions) are generally not regulated in the United States; however, Arkham makes no legal representation to you in stating such.

Best Execution

Arkham operates a digital asset exchange and, therefore, other users determine the price offered in each transaction executed on the platform. There is no central pricing authority for digital assets and digital assets may be subject to significant price volatility and have been subject to periods of volatility in the past. Other users, in their sole discretion, determine the prices they will offer a counterparty. The lack of a central pricing authority to obtain prices from competing dealers in digital assets, market depth, and limited access to some trading venues, can result in counterparties receiving a price that differs from the best possible price for a particular digital asset at a given time. Arkham makes no representation that the prices offered on the Platform or otherwise through the Services represent the best available price for a particular digital asset.

Content Posted Relating to the Services

The Service may include or make available certain content (the “Content”). Content includes, without limitation:

Batch Arbitration

To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, you and Arkham agree that in the event that there are one hundred (100) or more individual arbitrations of a substantially similar nature filed against Arkham by or with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms, or organizations, within a sixty (60) day period (or as soon as possible thereafter), AAA shall (1) administer the arbitration demands in batches of 100 Requests per batch (plus, to the extent there are less than 100 Requests left over after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining Requests); (2) appoint one arbitrator for each batch; and (3) provide for the resolution of each batch as a single consolidated arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees due per side per batch, one procedural calendar, one hearing (if any) in a place to be determined by the arbitrator, and one final award (“Batch Arbitration”). All parties agree that arbitrations are of a “substantially similar nature” if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief. To the extent the parties disagree on the application of the Batch Arbitration process, the disagreeing party shall advise AAA, and AAA shall appoint a sole standing arbitrator to determine the applicability of the Batch Arbitration process (“Administrative Arbitrator”). In an effort to expedite resolution of any such dispute by the Administrative Arbitrator, the parties agree the Administrative Arbitrator may set forth such procedures as are necessary to resolve any disputes promptly. The Administrative Arbitrator’s fees shall be paid by Arkham. You and Arkham agree to cooperate in good faith with AAA to implement the Batch Arbitration process including the payment of single filing and administrative fees for batches of arbitrations, as well as any steps to minimize the time and costs of arbitration, which may include: (1) the appointment of a discovery special master to assist the arbitrator in the resolution of discovery disputes; and (2) the adoption of an expedited calendar of the arbitration proceedings. This Batch Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class, collective and/or mass arbitration or action of any kind, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as expressly set forth in this provision.

In the event that 15 or more claimants seek to file arbitrations asserting similar claims and are represented by identical or coordinated counsel (whether such cases are pursued concurrently or not), all such cases shall be resolved through staged proceedings (“Batch Arbitration”). You hereby consent to this process notwithstanding any potential delay in the arbitration of your dispute.

In the first stage, counsel for the claimants and Arkham shall each select 15 cases (totaling 30 cases) (“First Stage Cases”) to be initiated in arbitration and adjudicated separately by distinct arbitrators. Where feasible, arbitrators shall be selected from the respective claimants’ jurisdictions. If the number of cases is fewer than 30, counsel for the claimants and Arkham shall each select an equal number of cases to the extent possible. During the first stage, no additional cases in connection with the Batch Arbitration shall be initiated or continued in arbitration and instead shall be stayed pending outcome of the First Stage Cases, and AAA shall abstain from assessing or demanding fees for the remaining cases or administering or accepting them. Arbitrators are encouraged to resolve the cases within 60 days of their appointment or as promptly as possible.

Upon completion of the first stage, the second stage is for the parties to engage in a single mediation session encompassing all remaining cases, with each party bearing its own costs in such mediation, provided that Arkham will bear the fees of the mediator. Should the parties fail to agree on resolutions for the remaining cases post-mediation, they shall repeat the process of selecting and initiating 30 cases to be individually arbitrated by different arbitrators, followed by mediation.

Should any claims remain after the second stage, this process shall be repeated until all disputes in connection with the Batch Arbitration are resolved, subject to four modifications: (1) up to 100 cases may be initiated in subsequent stages; (2) cases shall be selected randomly; (3) arbitrators from earlier stages may be reappointed if alternative arbitrators are unavailable; and (4) mediation is at the discretion of claimants’ counsel.

Between stages, counsel shall convene to discuss methods for enhancing the efficiency of the staged proceedings, including the potential increase in the number of cases initiated in each stage. Additionally, either party may negotiate with the AAA concerning the amount or timing of AAA fees.

Right to Opt-Out

If you do not want to arbitrate disputes and prefer to litigate in court, you must provide notice of your intent to opt out of arbitration (“Arbitration Opt-Out Notice”). Your Arbitration Opt-Out Notice must be sent by regular mail, return receipt requested to Arkham Markets ℅ Arkham Intelligence Inc., 16192 Coastal Hwy, Lewes, DE, 19958 USA within 30 days following the date you first accept this Agreement. If you do not send us an Arbitration Opt-Out Notice within the 30-day period, you will be deemed to have knowingly and intentionally waived your right to litigate any dispute. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, if Arkham modifies the arbitration provisions in the future, you retain the right to reject such modifications by sending an Arbitration Opt-Out Notice within 30 days following the initial notice of the modification. By rejecting any future changes, you agree to arbitrate any dispute with the terms of the latest version of the arbitration provision you previously agreed to.

Severability

Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered separable; and if, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement is determined by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, such determination shall not affect the enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement or the validity, lawfulness, or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
