Your wallets, Digital Assets, and cryptocurrencies are completely in your own control. You are the one and only one responsible for manipulating your fund to perform any transfers of Digital Assets. We cannot interfere with any of your Digital Assets storage and transactions from your wallets in any case.
2.2 Coin98 does not maintain any blockchain wallets (either single-chain or multi-chain like), and it does not act as a custodian of user’s Digital Assets even if any such blockchain wallet was created via the Coin98 Software. You hereby acknowledge and agree that Coin98 has no liability for or control over the safety, suitability, quality, delivery, legality or other aspects of any of your Digital Assets.
3 Interaction with Protocols
3.1 Coin98 Software serves as an aggregator of technically supported decentralized protocols (“Protocols”), including but not limited to, swaps, liquidity, lending protocols, and provides its users the graphic user interface and functionality to technically interact with Protocols. All transaction and/or order matching, clearing, settlement and filing happen in a complete decentralized fashion through the Protocol operated at the peer-to-peer model. We may create or launch Protocols or decentralized liquidity pools, provided that as soon as they are launched, they will not be operated or controlled by us, rather they will be decentralized.
3.2 You hereby acknowledge and agree that we do not execute the exchange of Digital Assets, cryptocurrencies and tokens, either directly or through Protocols. We do not define, suggest and execute any control over the price of Digital Assets accessible via Protocols. You do not interact with us when you perform swaps or interact with liquidity or lending pools, rather you interact with a Protocol directly. We do not own or control the underlying software which governs the operation of Protocols, even technically supported by the Coin98 Software or created by us.
3.3 You hereby acknowledge and agree that we have no liability to any claims or damages that may arise as a result of any actions or transactions that you engage in while interacting with Protocols through the Coin98 Software.
3.4 You acknowledge that the functionality of Protocols is experimental in nature. Protocols you interact with and rely on, are third party software applications. We make no representations or warranties of any kind regarding these third-party applications, including but not limited to representations and warranties of compliance, availability, or security. We make no representations or warranties that Protocols are compliant with laws of any jurisdiction, and you are solely responsible for making any such determination with respect to your interaction with such Protocols.
3.5 Your interaction with Protocols can be subject to or can incur fees, including fees of such Protocols or liquidity providers, or application of interest rates by Protocols.
3.6 Please note that the graphic user interface to technically supported Protocols accessible via the Coin98 Software is only the one of user interfaces to access such Protocols. Please note as well that we are a separate entity from, not an affiliate of, and have no control or management over named Protocols.
4 Interaction with Blockchains

The Coin98 Software allows users to retrieve information on Digital Assets and their markets, technically interact with such blockchains through the provided graphical user interface, including, but not limited to, interact with blockchains for creation of Digital Assets, transfer of Digital Assets or submitting any information to blockchains.
4.2 You hereby acknowledge and agree that you interact directly with the corresponding blockchain, we do not control your interaction with such blockchain and do not process or transmit any information, data or transactions entered by you. You hereby acknowledge and agree that we have no liability to any claims or damages that may arise as a result of any actions or transactions that you make or engage in while interacting with blockchains through the Coin98 Software.
4.3 Please note that the graphic user interface to technically supported blockchains accessible via the Coin98 Software is only the one of user interfaces to access such blockchains as well as you can interact with such blockchains directly through its code without using any third-party graphic user interface. Please note as well that we are a separate entity from, not an affiliate of, and have no control or management over named blockchains.
4.4 We reserve the right to cancel or refuse your interaction with any supported blockchains or the accessibility of total interaction functionality to you due to requirements of any applicable laws or regulations, and without prior notice to you.
5. Staking
5.1 “Staking” means a process of locking (making temporarily unavailable) of Digital Assets at a decentralized Protocol through execution of a smart contract that is usually accompanied by an allocation of reward or provision of a privileged access to any software’s functionality or provision of any other kind benefits to Stakers. “Staker” is a person who performs Staking.
5.2 Coin98 may provide you with the functionality of interacting with Protocols that support or allow Staking based on criteria and according to conditions specified by these Protocols. Staking Protocols may provide functionality of aggregating or routing of the Staked Digital Assets when such Staked Digital Assets may be automatically routed by a staking Protocol for generating additional yield. All calculation and distribution of any applicable rewards happen in a complete decentralized fashion through the Protocol operated at the peer-to-peer model according to the initial parameters set at the moment of creation of the Protocol or any related decentralized Staking pool (“Staking Pool”).
5.3 We may create or launch Protocols or Staking Pools, provided that as soon as they are launched, they will not be operated or controlled by us, rather they will be decentralized. We may monitor any Staking Pool created by us in order to determine if you are eligible for any privileged access announced by us.
5.4 You do not interact with us when you perform Staking, rather you interact with a Protocol directly. We do not own or control the underlying software which governs the operation of Protocols, even technically supported by the Coin98 Software or created by us. Coin98 does not and will not be responsible or liable to you for the distribution of any Staking rewards. Also, Coin98 does not and will not be responsible or liable to you for the provision of any benefits unless specifically promised by Coin98.
5.5 By performing Staking you will be unable to access your staked Digital Assets unless you unstake them. In some instances, you may be unable to unstake Digital Assets before the specified period of time or the specified event, or such unstaking can incur any additional costs to you and/or loss of Staking rewards.
5.6 You hereby acknowledge and agree that we have no liability to any claims or damages that may arise as a result of your Staking and interaction with Staking Pools through the Coin98 Software.
5.7 Your Staking can be subject to or can incur fees, including fees of Protocols, Staking Pools, transaction fees of blockchains.
5.8 We do not represent and warrant that we will technically support any Protocols or Staking Pools even technically supported before, notwithstanding if you perform Staking or not. We do not guarantee that you will be able to interact with any Protocols or Staking Pools through the Coin98 Software in future, including that you will be able to unstake your Digital Assets through the graphic user interface of the Coin98 Software.
