Terms for the Metastable Program
Please read these terms and conditions carefully before using the Interface for any reason. Your use of the Interface is conditional upon your agreement to the Terms set out below. If you do not agree and you do not give your consent to be bound to the Terms, do not use the Interface. By selecting “Accept,” you certify that you consent to be bound by these Terms. If you violate these Terms, your permission to use the Services under these Terms will automatically terminate.
Introduction
These Metastable Terms of Use (together with all appendices and exhibits hereto, which are hereby incorporated by reference, these "Terms" or this "Agreement") explain the terms and conditions by which you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ("you"), may access and use the software products and services (the "Services") provided by AF Tech Ltd, a British Virgin Islands business company ("Metastable," "we," "us," and "our") to interact with the non-custodial, blockchain-based protocol. The Services include, but are not limited to, the website and any other websites, apps, or dashboards available through the domain and its subdomains (the "Interface").
Binding Agreement
By accessing, using, or interacting with the Services in any way, including by connecting your digital wallet address to the Interface, you represent that you have read, understand, acknowledge, and agree that you are entering into a binding legal agreement with us that includes these Terms and the Privacy Policy in their entirety. If you do not agree to be bound, you are not authorized to access or use any of the Services.
When you use the Interface, you're agreeing to:
Resolve disputes through arbitration rather than going to court.
Waive your right to participate in a class action lawsuit.
These agreements affect how any disagreements between you and us will be handled. These Terms may be changed, amended, or revised without notice. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you should not continue to access or use the Interface.
Technical Services Only
The Services provide technical and administrative functionalities that enable users to access and interact with on-chain smart contracts that operate deterministically and are not controlled by Metastable. Metastable is not a broker, dealer, exchange, investment adviser, custodian, or financial service provider of any kind. We do not have a fiduciary relationship or obligation to you in connection with any of the Services.
Important Note on Issuance of Currency
Metastable does not issue, represent, or claim to issue any government-backed currency, including but not limited to the U.S. dollar. The assets and services provided through Metastable may include tokens pegged to the U.S. dollar or other fiat currencies, but these tokens are not issued or guaranteed by Metastable as legal tender or government-backed money.
Any references to "Sui’s decentralized dollar" or similar language should be understood as indicating a decentralized token pegged to the U.S. dollar within the Sui ecosystem. Metastable explicitly disclaims any role as an issuer of fiat or government-backed currency, and its services do not fall under regulatory frameworks applicable to issuers of such currencies, including the Bank Secrecy Act.
