Terms of Use.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the Soqucoin website (soqu.org) and related informational resources (collectively, the "Website"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Website.

2. Eligibility and Scope

2.1 Website Access

The Website provides educational and informational content about Soqucoin, post-quantum cryptography, and related technologies. Access to the Website is open to all users subject to compliance with applicable law in your jurisdiction. There are no geographic restrictions on viewing educational content, whitepapers, or participating in community discussions.

2.2 pSOQ Token Acquisition Restrictions

The pSOQ token is a digital asset that may be subject to regulatory requirements in various jurisdictions. pSOQ tokens are not offered in jurisdictions where the offer, sale, or holding of digital assets or cryptographic tokens is prohibited or restricted by law.

Users are solely responsible for determining their own eligibility to acquire, hold, or trade pSOQ tokens based on applicable laws and regulations in their jurisdiction. By acquiring pSOQ tokens, you represent that you have made this determination and are in compliance with all applicable laws.

2.3 General Representations

By using the Services, you represent and warrant that:

• You are at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, if higher)
• You are accessing the Website voluntarily and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms
• If you acquire pSOQ tokens, you have independently verified your eligibility to do so under Section 2.2
• All information you provide (including wallet addresses and contact information) is accurate and current

3. No Offer or Solicitation

The information on this website, the Soqucoin whitepaper, and the pSOQ addendum does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, financial instruments, or digital assets in any jurisdiction where such offer or solicitation would be unlawful.

pSOQ is not being offered in any securities offering. pSOQ may be distributed through community programs and liquidity incentives only, subject to eligibility criteria and compliance with these Terms.

4. Experimental Nature and Risks

4.1 pSOQ Utility Token

pSOQ is intended to function as an experimental utility token within the Soqucoin ecosystem. It does not represent equity, debt, or any ownership interest in any entity and does not entitle holders to profits, dividends, or other financial returns.

4.2 No Value Guarantees

pSOQ may lose all value. Any anticipated "peg" or exchange mechanism with SOQ is aspirational only and contingent on future technical implementation, security audits, and regulatory compliance. There is no guarantee that any gateway, peg, or conversion mechanism will be implemented, maintained, or function as described.

4.3 Smart Contract and Technical Risks

• SPL token contracts, cross-chain gateways, oracles, and AMM pools may contain bugs, vulnerabilities, or be subject to exploits
• Solana network congestion, downtime, or forks may affect pSOQ accessibility
• Private key loss or theft results in permanent, irreversible loss of tokens
• The Soqucoin project does not control or operate any third-party infrastructure

4.4 Extreme Volatility

Digital assets are subject to extreme price volatility. pSOQ may experience intraday price swings of ±90% or more, unrelated to Soqucoin's technical development or fundamentals.

4.5 Cryptographic Assumptions

Soqucoin and pSOQ rely on post-quantum cryptographic primitives (ML-DSA-44, lattice-based assumptions) that remain subjects of active cryptanalytic research. Future cryptanalytic or quantum computing advances may compromise these assumptions, potentially resulting in loss of value or security.

5. Third-Party Services

References to third-party platforms (Solana, Wormhole, Raydium, Marginfi, Phantom Wallet, etc.) are for informational purposes only. The Soqucoin project:

• Does not control, operate, audit, or endorse these services
• Is not responsible for their security, availability, performance, or regulatory status
• Makes no warranty regarding their functionality or suitability

Use of third-party services is entirely at your own risk.

6. Prohibited Conduct

You agree not to:

• Use the Services for any illegal purpose or in violation of local, state, national, or international law
• Impersonate any person or entity, or falsely claim affiliation with Soqucoin
• Create, distribute, or promote fake/"scam" tokens purporting to be pSOQ or SOQ

They are pre-release, are not audited for any particular use, and are not production-ready. The software is licensed under the MIT License, which governs the software itself.

18.2 General-purpose infrastructure; no endorsement

The Builder Tools are neutral, general-purpose developer infrastructure. The Soqucoin project does not direct, control, endorse, or assume responsibility for any application, product, or service that you or any third party builds, deploys, or operates using them.

You are solely responsible for ensuring that anything you build, deploy, or operate using the Builder Tools complies with all applicable laws and regulations in every relevant jurisdiction, including without limitation: securities and commodities laws; money transmission, money services business (MSB), and electronic-money or payment laws; anti-money-laundering (AML), counter-terrorist-financing, and know-your-customer (KYC) requirements; economic sanctions and export controls (including OFAC); tax law; consumer-protection law; and data-protection and privacy law. Certain activities are heavily regulated and may require licensing or registration, including for example: tokenizing or offering fractional interests in real-world assets, securities, or investment products; operating an exchange, a custodial wallet, or an escrow or custody service; or transmitting funds on behalf of others. You must obtain your own legal, regulatory, financial, and tax advice before launching.

18.5 Prohibited and high-risk uses

You may not use the Builder Tools for any unlawful purpose. The Soqucoin project may decline, suspend, or remove any participant or submission from the Builders League at its sole discretion. Participation confers no right to any grant, payment, listing, or other benefit.

18.6 Grants and recognition

Any Builders League recognition, grant, or perk is discretionary, is not compensation, employment, or an investment, and does not constitute the offer or sale of any security or other regulated instrument.
