All digital assets deposited with the TradeStars platform will first be converted into stable tokens such as USDT/USDC, which the user may utilise to interact with the Fractional NFT Market (as described below).
You agree and understand that you are not allowed to enter any restricted area of any computer or network of TradeStars under any circumstances, or perform any functions that are not authorised by these Terms.
THE SERVICE
. TradeStars platform and Services
TradeStars is an application that runs on the Ethereum and Matic/Polygon blockchain network (the "Relevant Blockchain Network"), using specially-developed smart contracts together with a Decentralised frontend, which allows users to (i) create and list various marketplaces ("Fractional NFT Markets") for the trading of fungible fractions of non-fungible tokens ("NFTs"), (ii) stake digital assets to create fungible fractions of NFTs (i.e. "Smart Tokens") and (iii) trade these Smart Tokens with the Fractional NFT Market.
The price for each Smart Token (each associated with a specific athelete) will change based on supply and demand, which in turn depends on that specific athlete's performance in real-life events/statistical data and how that performance will translate into fantasy points (i.e. 1 Goal = X fantasy points, as more particuarly described in the Game Rules). Competing users aim to gain an advantage and acquire as much fantasy points as possible based on their specialised knowledge and/or sentiment towards how the athlete may perform in real life events. The Game Rules may be modified by TradeStars at its sole discretion.
Fantasy points are the mechanism to measure each user's success within the platform's gamification features, so Tradestarts will develop various features and products that will encourage users to increase their accrued fantasy points. Further, the platform may distribute its native tokens (TSX) as an incentive to encourage users to utilise the TradeStars Platform and rewards for top performing users.
When Smart Tokens are purchased from the Fractional NFT Market, the price of each Smart Token is determined by the underlying smart contract following a bonding curve algorithm, which adjusts pricing based on the actual supply and demand of such Smart Tokens. For each purchase, the payment gets added to the reserve balance and new Smart Tokens are issued to the buyer, increasing the price per Smart Token. In converse, when Smart Tokens are liquidated, they are removed from the supply, reserve tokens are transferred to the seller, and the price per Smart Token decreases.
The Services provided by TradeStars are strictly limited to provision of technical infrastructure and it does not in any way participate or guarantee the successful execution of transactions on the platform, or such other ancillary activities such as cancellation, mistake, return or refund.
A user which elects to provide liquidity on the Fractional NFT Market in the form of Smart Tokens, NFT or digital tokens shall do so solely at its own risk. Trading activity occurring on the exchange infrastructure may result in loss in the value or quantity of Smart Tokens, NFT or digital tokens provided, and the user shall be responsible for its own activities. In no event shall TradeStars be obliged to compensate or insure any user for any event of loss in connection with usage of the Services.
Ownership and terms relating to Smart Tokens
The creator of the NFT and Smart Tokens is free to set their own terms relating to the same and TradeStars is not a party to these terms. Accordingly, notwithstanding that a user holds the Smart Tokens, TradeStars cannot provide any guarantee, warranty or assurance regarding the authenticity, uniqueness, originality, quality, marketability, legality or value of any Smart Tokens, the underlying NFT or intellectual property, or associated metadata.
Our Service does not store, send, or receive NFTs or Smart Tokens. This is because NFTs and Smart Tokens exist only by virtue of the ownership record maintained on the Relevant Blockchain Network. Any creation or transfer of title that might occur in any NFTs or Smart Tokens occurs on the Relevant Blockchain Network, and not in connection with the Service. TradeStars cannot guarantee that it, or any party can effect the transfer of such title or right to any such NFTs or Smart Tokens.
Service fees
Each time you trade Smart Tokens with the Fractional NFT Market, you authorize us to collect a commission of 0.5% of the total value of the transaction (each, a "Commission"). This Commission will be exclusive of any transaction fees charged by the Relevant Blockchain Network for interactions (i.e. purchase or sale of Smart Tokens) with the Fractional NFT Market and associated smart contracts.
If you elect to purchase, trade, or sell a Smart Token with or from other users via the Service, any financial transactions that you engage in will be conducted solely through the Relevant Blockchain Network. We will have no insight into or control over these payments or transactions, nor do we have the ability to reverse any transactions. With that in mind, we will have no liability to you or to any third party for any claims or damages that may arise as a result of any transactions that you engage in via the Service, or any other transactions that you conduct via the Relevant Blockchain Network.

In particular, the Services do not constitute any "banking business" within the meaning of any banking laws or "capital markets products" or "securities" within the meaning of any securities law.
No Advice
TradeStars makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, regarding the advisability of participating in online financial products, securities, funds, commodity interests, partnership interests or other investments or funding or purchasing loans. The past performance of any investment, loan, security, partnership interest, commodity or financial instrument is not a guide to future performance. TradeStars is merely a technology service provider connecting you with various third parties and does not offer fiduciary services, and is not your agent, advisor or fiduciary.
Taxes
It is your sole responsibility to determine whether, and to what extent, any taxes apply to any interest received through the Services, and to withhold, collect, report and remit the correct amount of tax to the appropriate tax authorities.
RISK FACTORS
Third party Risk
When using the Services, users may be providing third parties control and/or ownership of their Smart Tokens. As such, there may be fraudulent or unauthorised activity conducted by these third parties, which may result in users losing all or substantially all of their Smart Tokens.
No Insurance
Smart Tokens are not legal tender, is not backed by the government, and are not subject to the Deposit Insurance Scheme or protections under any banking or securities laws. TradeStars is not a bank and does not offer fiduciary services, nor does it offer any security broking services.
New Technical Risk
The TradeStars software used for TradeStars is new. While this software has been extensively tested, the software used for the Services are still relatively new and could have bugs or security vulnerabilities. Further, the software is still under development and may undergo significant changes over time that may not meet users’ expectations.
Reliance on Third Parties Risk
The Services rely in whole or partly, on third party software and the continued development and support of third parties. There is no assurance or guarantee that those third parties will maintain their support of their software, which might have a material adverse effect on the Services.
Information Security Risk
Smart Tokens, and use of the Services may be subject to expropriation and/or theft. Hackers or other malicious groups or organizations may attempt to interfere with the Services in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, malware attacks, denial of service attacks, consensus-based attacks, Sybil attacks, smurfing and spoofing. Furthermore, because each of the Relevant Blockchain Networks rests on open source software, there is the software underlying the Services may contain intentional or unintentional bugs or weaknesses which may negatively affect the Services or result in the loss of user’s Smart Tokens, the loss of user’s ability to access or control their Platform User Account. In the event of such a software bug or weakness, there may be no remedy and users are not guaranteed any remedy, refund or compensation.
Regulatory risks
The regulatory status of Smart Tokens and NFTs, and distributed ledger technology is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions. While every effort has been taken to ensure that the Services are compliant with local laws, it is difficult to predict how or whether regulatory agencies may apply existing regulation with respect to the Services. It is likewise difficult to predict how or whether legislatures or regulatory agencies may implement changes to law and regulation affecting distributed ledger technology and its applications, including the Services. Regulatory actions could negatively impact TradeStars in various ways, and thus the Services may not be available in certain areas.
Taxation Risk
The tax characterisation of Smart Tokens is uncertain. It is possible that the user's intended treatment of Smart Tokens may be challenged. You must seek your own tax advice in connection with the Services provided by TradeStars, which may result in adverse tax consequences to you, including, without limitation, withholding taxes, transfer taxes, value added taxes, income taxes and similar taxes, levies, duties or other charges and tax reporting requirements.

Dispute Resolution
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT CONTAINS CERTAIN PROVISIONS, SUCH AS A BINDING ARBITRATION SECTION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER, WHICH AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. THIS SECTION REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH THE COMPANY AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.
Each party (i) waives all its respective right(s) to have any and all disputes, claims, suits, actions, causes of action, demands or proceedings (collectively, "Disputes") arising from or related to these Terms resolved in a court, and (ii) waive all its respective right(s) to have any Disputes heard before a court. Instead, each party shall arbitrate Disputes through binding arbitration (which is the referral of a Dispute to one or more persons charged with reviewing the Dispute and making a final and binding determination to resolve it instead of having the Dispute decided by a judge or jury in court).
Any Dispute arising out of or related to these Terms is personal to you and will be resolved solely through individual arbitration, and in no circumstances shall be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding. There will be no class arbitration or arbitration in which an entity attempts to resolve a Dispute as a representative of another individual or group of individuals. Further, a Dispute cannot be brought as a class or other type of representative action, whether within or outside of arbitration, or on behalf of any other individual or group of individuals.
Any Dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms (including without limitation the enforceability of this section or any question regarding its existence, validity or termination) shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by arbitration in accordance with the BVI IAC Arbitration Rules for the time being in force, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference in this section 8.2. The place of arbitration shall be Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands, unless the Parties agree otherwise. The number of arbitrators shall be one. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English.
Each party will notify the other party in writing of any Dispute within thirty (30) days of the date it arises, so that the Parties can attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute informally. Notice to the Company shall be sent by e-mail to the Company at support@tradestars.app_. _Notice to you shall be either posted on the Website or, if available, will be sent by email to your email on record. Your notice must include (i) your name, postal address, email address and telephone number, (ii) a full and sufficient description of the nature or basis of the Dispute, and (iii) the specific relief that you are seeking. If you and the Company cannot agree how to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the date the notice is received by the applicable party, then either you or the Company may, as appropriate and in accordance with this section, commence an arbitration proceeding or, to the extent specifically provided for in this section, file a claim in court.
The arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative or class action, which is prohibited by these Terms. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.
If any term, clause or provision of this section is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be so held to the minimum extent applicable and required by law, and all other terms, clauses and provisions of this section will remain valid and enforceable. Further, the waivers set forth in this section are severable from the other provisions of these Terms and will remain valid and enforceable, except as prohibited by applicable law.
You agree that this section of these Terms has been included to rapidly and inexpensively resolve any disputes with respect to the matters described herein, and that this section shall be grounds for dismissal of any court action commenced by you with respect to a dispute arising out of such matters.
A printed version of these Terms shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings.
