The Website is a copyrighted work belonging to Horizon Blockchain Games Inc. (“Horizon,” “Company,” “HBG,” “us,” “our,” and “we”). 

SOME JURISDICTIONS (WHICH MAY INCLUDE QUEBEC, CANADA) DO NOT ALLOW MANDATORY ARBITRATION, PROHIBITIONS AGAINST CLASS ACTIONS OR GOVERNING LAW AND FORUMS OTHER THAN WHERE THE INDIVIDUAL CONSUMER IS LOCATED. IF YOU ARE LOCATED IN ONE OF THESE JURISDICTIONS, THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU AND YOU MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS. THESE TERMS REQUIRE THE USE OF ARBITRATION, AS SET FORTH IN MORE DETAIL IN SECTION 8 BELOW, ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS, AND ALSO LIMIT THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO YOU IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE.

  1. Niftyswap.

1.1 Niftyswap protocol. Niftyswap is a decentralized protocol for swapping collectible virtual goods comprised of an audited smart contract developed by HBG and deployed by HBG to the various blockchain networks such as Ethereum, Polygon, and other Ethereum-compatible blockchains (the “Relevant Blockchains”). Niftyswap is designed to facilitate swapping of blockchain-based collectible virtual goods created through the use of smart contracts employing a particular standard known as ERC-1155. Niftyswap provides for the creation of liquidity pools, each comprised of a particular ERC-1155 standard collectible digital asset paired with another ERC-1155 digital asset referred to as an “ERC-1155 Base Currency”, to establish automated markets from which users can buy and sell such assets in peer-to-pool transactions. Niftyswap is comprises open-source software including a smart contract (the “Factory Contract”) that allows for the creation of exchange smart contracts (the “Niftyswap Exchange Contract(s)”), each of which are specific to a particular ERC-1155 standard digital asset paired with a particular ERC-1155 Base Currency. The Niftyswap Exchange Contract handles the logic for exchanging ERC-1155 assets for a particular ERC-1155 Base Currency. Pricing of ERC-1155 assets contributed to a Niftyswap liquidity pool is determined using a constant product function in which the price of such an asset is a function of the amount of ERC-1155 Base Currency held in reserve in the liquidity pool and the amount of the ERC-1155 asset held in the liquidity pool reserve. HBG developed the Niftyswap protocol and deployed the Factory Contract to the Relevant Blockchains. HBG does not operate, maintain, or control the Niftyswap protocol – now that the smart contracts comprising the protocol have been deployed, the Niftyswap protocol operates autonomously.

1.2 Website. HBG provides access to the Niftyswap protocol through the Website, which is a frontend user interface designed to provide convenient access to the open-source software comprising Niftyswap. The open-source software that comprises Niftyswap is also accessible directly via the command line (“Direct Access”) and may be accessible via other frontend user interfaces that may develop in the future. The Website allows a user to read and display data associated with blockchain address for which that user controls the associated private key and to interact with the Niftyswap protocol by generating standardized transaction messages in order to engage in transactions, establish a liquidity pool, or contribute liquidity to an existing pool. With the necessary technical expertise, it is possible to generate transaction messages to interact with Niftyswap via Direct Access without use of the Website, and there is no prohibition herein, or separate license required or fee payable to HBG in order to do so. 

1.3 Connecting a Wallet. In order to access the Niftyswap protocol through the Website or Direct Access to engage in transactions, a user must first connect a wallet (“Wallet”). Users of the Website can connect a Sequence or other Ethereum compatible wallet in order to access the Niftyswap protocol and engage in transactions or begin providing liquidity or create a new liquidity pool.

1.4 Fees.

(a) A royalty fee may be imposed with respect to Exchange Contracts at the discretion of the ERC-1155 token owner that owns the ERC-1155 token contract (“Royalty Fees”). Royalty Fees are a component of the Exchange Contracts and are set at the smart contract level with the default fee set at 0% of the value of the assets transacted or at the percentage specified by the ERC-1155 token contract if it supports ERC-2981. Royalty Fees will be stored in the Exchange Contract and can be withdrawn at anytime to the Royalty Fee recipient specified by ERC-2981 in the ERC-1155 contract.

(b) Transactions initiated from the Website are subject to an additional fee of 2% that is implemented on the front-end rather than at the smart contract level (the “Front-end Fee”). HBG collects Front-end Fees. 

(c) Liquidity provider fees are also assessed with respect to each transaction using Niftyswap (the “LP Fee”). The LP Fee is a component of the Exchange Contract on its creation and is set such that it applies to each transaction involving such Exchange Contract. Different liquidity pools may have different LP Fees and users can choose the pools they interact with taking such LP Fees into account. The LP Fee is not collected by HBG and is instead retained in the Exchange Contract and paid out to liquidity providers when they withdraw their liquidity from a particular Niftyswap liquidity pool. 

(d) Using the Niftyswap protocol deployed to the Relevant Blockchain to engage in transactions will require that you pay network fees for processing those transactions on the Relevant Blockchain (“gas fees”). You understand that you are solely responsible for the payment of any such gas fees associated with transactions you enter into using the Niftyswap protocol and that you must ensure, prior to initiating such a transaction, that you have sufficient assets in your Wallet cover the applicable gas fee and complete any transaction on the Niftyswap protocol. HBG has no control over any such transaction or the associated gas fee nor does it receive any portion of such gas fee. Such network transaction fees may fluctuate over time depending on a variety of factors.

Under no circumstances shall HBG incur any liability, of any kind, to you arising from or relating to fees charged to you through Niftyswap. Although we attempt to provide accurate fee information, any such information may vary from the fees actually paid to use Niftyswap and interact with the Ethereum blockchain or any other network with which Niftyswap is compatible. Pricing information may be higher or lower than prices available on platforms providing similar services. HBG may not be held liable for, and you hereby forever release HBG from, any losses or other liabilities arising from any inaccurate fee information provided in connection with any use of Niftyswap.

1.5 Third-Party Protocol. Niftyswap is a third-party protocol that is not operated or maintained by HBG. Access to this third-party protocol via the Website is provided for your convenience only and does not constitute HBG’s approval, endorsement, or recommendation of such third-party protocol for you. You access and use such third-party protocol based on your own evaluation of that protocol and at your own risk. You understand that your use of Niftyswap is not governed by these Terms. If you decide to access Niftyswap through the Website (or otherwise), you will solely be responsible for reviewing, understanding, and accepting the terms, conditions and risks associated with the use of Niftyswap and/or any other documentation governing its use. You understand that when you use the Sequence Marketplace Services to access Niftyswap that you are at no time transferring your assets to us and that Horizon will never be in control of assets maintained in the Wallet you use to connect to Niftyswap. We expressly disclaim all responsibility and liability in connection with your use of Niftyswap or any other third-party protocol or service you access using the Website. Our Privacy Policy does not apply to your use of Niftyswap or any other third-party protocol or service. Your use of a third-party protocol or service is subject to the terms of use and privacy policies applicable to such protocol or service, if any.

1.6 Other Disclaimers. HBG does not operate a digital asset exchange platform or offer trade execution or clearing services and, therefore, has no oversight, involvement, or control concerning your transactions using the Sequence Marketplace Services. All transactions involving users of Sequence Marketplace Services are executed peer-to-pool directly through the users' Relevant Blockchain network addresses interacting with third-party smart contracts. You are responsible for complying with all laws that may be applicable to or govern your use of the Sequence Marketplace Services

You understand that HBG is not registered or licensed by the Ontario Securities Commission, Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”), Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or any financial regulatory authority in Canada, the United States or any other jurisdiction.

(d) You represent that you will not disrupt, interfere with, or otherwise adversely affect the normal flow of the Sequence Marketplace Services or otherwise act in a manner that may negatively affect other users' experience when using the Sequence Marketplace Services. This includes taking advantage of errors and any other act that intentionally abuses or goes against the design of the Sequence Marketplace Services.

(e) You represent and warrant that you are sophisticated in using and evaluating blockchain technologies and related blockchain-based digital assets, including but not limited to the Ethereum network, smart contract systems, and automated market making protocols. Specifically, you represent and warrant that you have evaluated and understand the operation of, and the risks associated with, the Website and the Niftyswap Protocol and have not relied on any information, statement, representation, or warranty, express or implied, made by or on behalf of HBG with respect to the Niftyswap Protocol.

(f) You represent and warrant that you have read and understood the risks associated with accessing and using the Niftyswap protocol via the Website as set forth herein.

(g) All of the above representations and warranties are true, complete, accurate and not misleading from the time of your acceptance of the Sequence Marketplace User Interface Terms and are deemed repeated each time you use the Site.

(h) We welcome feedback, comments, ideas, and suggestions for improvements to the Sequence Marketplace Services ("Feedback"). You grant to us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully-paid, royalty-free, sublicensable and transferable license under any and all intellectual property rights that you own or control to use, copy, modify, create derivative works based upon or improvements with respect to and otherwise exploit and commercialize the Feedback and any such derivative works and improvements in any manner and for any purpose.

Horizon reserves the right to determine what conduct it considers to be a breach of these representations. Horizon reserves the right to take action as a result, which may include prohibiting you from accessing services provided by Horizon, in whole or in part. Any restrictions imposed by Horizon will not affect your ability to transfer your digital assets. 

2.2 You acknowledge and accept the following risks associated with digital assets and the use of decentralized smart contract protocols, such as the Niftyswap protocol accessible via the Website:

(a) HBG is not a party to any transaction that takes place on the Niftyswap protocol and is not responsible for any such transaction. You are responsible for transactions you enter into on the Niftyswap protocol. You understand that the smart contracts that comprise the Niftyswap protocol may have vulnerabilities subject to exploitation and that the underlying code may not be free from bugs or other errors. You understand that you are responsible for reviewing and understanding the smart contract code before accessing and using the Niftyswap protocol via the Website and that if you do not have the expertise necessary to do so that you should engage professionals to assist you with same.

(b) You are solely responsible for securing the private key(s) or other login credentials associated with the Wallet you use to access Sequence Marketplaces. You understand that anyone who obtains your private keys or login credentials may access your Wallet with or without your authorization and may transfer any digital assets accessible through your Wallet. 

(c) The value of any digital asset, where value is attached to such an asset, may fluctuate. Horizon makes no guarantees as to the price or value of any digital asset on the Niftyswap protocol or any other third-party market. You acknowledge and accept the risk that your digital assets, or any digital assets you acquire may lose some or all of their value and you may suffer loss due to the fluctuation of prices of tokens and/or significant price slippage and cost.

(d) The following risks are associated with using digital assets: the risk of losing private keys, theft resulting from third-parties discovering your private key, value fluctuation on the secondary market, disruptions to the Relevant Blockchain caused by network congestion, lack of usability of the assets due to a hard fork or other disruption to the Relevant Blockchain, or errors or vulnerabilities in the smart contract code associated with a given digital asset or transactions involving digital assets. Transfers on blockchain networks are irreversible. Once an instruction, signed by the required private key(s), to transfer a digital asset from one blockchain address to another has been executed it cannot be undone.

(e) In the event of a change to an underlying blockchain network, or other network disruption, resulting in a fork of the blockchain into one (or more) additional blockchains, transactions on the blockchain may be disrupted, including transactions involving the Niftyswap protocol.

(f) Polygon is a sidechain of Ethereum, meaning it runs in parallel to Ethereum and provides a two way bridge enabling users to bring Ethereum-based assets on to Polygon from Ethereum and vice-versa. Because Polygon and similar blockchains are their own separate blockchains, the security of such blockchains is independent from the security of Ethereum. The instantiation of Polygon on which the Niftyswap protocol is deployed utilizes a consensus mechanism with a limited number of validators. On a network with concentrated validators there is a greater risk that participants may collude and make arbitrary changes, which, among other things, might potentially result in users being blocked from porting assets on Polygon back to Ethereum. Similar risks are associated with other sidechain blockchains to which the Niftyswap protocol may be deployed.

(g) The Niftyswap protocol allows participants to engage in a variety of activities which include buying digital assets from Niftyswap liquidity pools, creating new liquidity pools, and contributing liquidity to liquidity pools. Users of the Niftyswap protocol bear the risks of interacting with the Niftyswap protocol when they participate in these activities. Because these activities are occurring through a decentralized protocol, users understand that there are no licensed intermediaries involved in these activities and that they may have limited recourse in the event that they lose value when interacting with the Niftyswap protocol.

(h) You are solely responsible for determining the tax implications and tax reporting requirements associated with transactions you engage in by accessing Niftyswap via the Website and for paying any applicable taxes. Horizon is not responsible for determining whether there are tax implications in connection with such transactions, for reporting any such transactions, or for paying any applicable taxes.

(i) Horizon may modify or discontinue support for the Website at any time. Horizon reserves the right, at any time and without notice, in our sole and absolute discretion, to modify the Website.
