# Ecosystem Terms and Conditions ⚠️ IMPORTANT: Please read these Ecosystem Terms and Conditions carefully and fully understand them before using our services. By connecting your personal wallet to the AquaBank ecosystem interface or approving any on-chain transaction, you shall be deemed to have fully understood and agreed to these Terms, including all applicable responsibilities, restrictions, risk notices, and disclaimers, and to use the service at your own risk and responsibility. *** ### Article 1. Service Overview and Non-Custodial Structure The AquaBank ecosystem is a non-custodial interface that facilitates blockchain interactions. It comprehensively provides not only AquaBank’s stablecoin-based liquidity provision features, including USDt, USDC, AUSD, and others, but also smart-routed swap and liquidity provision features for various digital assets through the PumpSpace decentralized exchange, including AVAX, BTC.b, WETH.e, V2/V3 pair pools, single pools, and NFT pools. As the AquaBank ecosystem is not a centralized financial institution, it does not custody users’ assets on its servers or operate them at its discretion. All movements of assets are processed on-chain only through the signature of the user’s personal wallet. *** ### Article 2. Principles of Reward Distribution and Protocol Fees When a user supplies liquidity to smart contracts within the ecosystem, corresponding receipt tokens, such as bUSDT, bUSDC, and others, may be automatically minted, or liquidity provider positions may be created, depending on the type of service in which the user participates, including single-asset supply, liquidity provision to PumpSpace V2/V3 pair pools, and lock-up settings. The distribution ratios of protocol rewards generated through smart contracts, conversion fees between underlying assets and receipt tokens, including minting and redemption fees, and smart-routed swap fees are automatically executed by the Protocol’s algorithm. The exact fee rates and reward distribution ratios may vary depending on the on-chain environment and the settings of each individual liquidity pool, and shall always follow the latest standards specified in the official whitepaper and official guidance documents. *** ### Article 3. Eligibility and Country of Residence Restrictions The Interface is available only to individuals who are at least 18 years old, or who have reached the legal age of majority in their country of residence. Pursuant to applicable laws, regulations, and international sanctions, residents, citizens, and legal entities of the following countries and regions are not permitted to use this Interface. Regulated Restricted Jurisdictions:\ U.S. Persons, as well as jurisdictions such as Canada, China, the United Kingdom, and Japan, where virtual asset services require strict authorization or are subject to comprehensive restrictions or prohibitions. Internationally Sanctioned Countries:\ Countries and regions subject to sanctions by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), and the United Nations (UN), including North Korea, Iran, Syria, Cuba, and the Crimea region of Ukraine. High-Risk and Other Regions:\ Countries designated by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), and any other jurisdictions for which access is restricted at the Protocol’s discretion. *** ### Article 4. Restrictions and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) You must comply with all applicable laws and regulations. The use of assets for illegal purposes, including money laundering and terrorist financing, as well as any abuse of the Interface or attempted hacking through web crawlers, automated programs, or similar tools, is strictly prohibited. In the event of a violation, access to the Interface may be blocked without prior notice. *** ### Article 5. Risk Notice and No Financial Advice Due to the nature of the decentralized finance ecosystem, various risks exist, including price volatility, impermanent loss that may arise from the operation of PumpSpace pair pools, defects in smart contract code, and system failures of externally integrated protocols, such as BENQI. Estimated reward rates displayed on the Interface are reference estimates only and do not guarantee any returns. In addition, all information provided through the Interface does not constitute professional financial advice. The user is solely responsible for any tax obligations arising from interactions with digital assets. *** ### Article 6. Intellectual Property Rights All intellectual property rights related to the Interface, including trademarks, user interface and user experience designs, text, and other content, are owned by the interface provider. Unauthorized reproduction or commercial redistribution without prior written consent is prohibited. *** ### Article 7. Disclaimer and Force Majeure The Protocol assumes no legal liability for any decline in asset value, losses resulting from mistaken transfers, network delays, or similar events. The Protocol shall also be exempt from liability for any service interruptions or losses caused by force majeure events beyond its reasonable control, including natural disasters, hard forks or major failures of public blockchain mainnets, such as the Avalanche C-Chain, and government regulations. *** ### Article 8. User Indemnification If the Protocol incurs regulatory fines, litigation costs, including attorneys’ fees, or any other damages due to the user’s unlawful conduct, violation of these Terms, or infringement of third-party rights, the user shall be responsible for fully indemnifying the Protocol and holding it harmless from such damages. *** ### Article 9. Jurisdiction, Dispute Resolution, and Severability The AquaBank ecosystem is a decentralized interface that is not subject to the legal jurisdiction of any specific country. All disputes arising in connection with the Interface shall be resolved through binding arbitration in accordance with international commercial practices. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable by a competent legal authority, the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall remain fully effective. This principle is known as severability. *** ### Article 10. Privacy Processing and Immutability of Blockchain Data The Protocol may collect minimal data, such as wallet addresses, for the purpose of providing the Interface smoothly. However, due to the nature of the service operating on a public blockchain, transaction histories recorded on-chain are transparently disclosed and permanently preserved. Accordingly, the user is expressly notified that it is technically impossible to exercise a right to delete data recorded on-chain. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
