KOR.SPACE — TERMS OF USE

Last Modified: January 13, 2025


Acceptance of the Terms of Use

These terms of use are entered into by and between you and Unspendable Labs Inc. ("Unspendable Labs," "Company," "we," or "us"). The following terms and conditions ("Terms of Use") govern your access to and use of the Company's Kontor Explorer platform at kor.space, including any content, functionality, and services offered on or through kor.space (the "Platform" or "Kontor Explorer"), whether as a guest or registered user ("Users").

THIS TERMS OF USE CONTAINS A WAIVER OF ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AS WELL AS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION CLAUSE THAT GOVERNS RESOLUTION OF CERTAIN DISPUTES AND WAIVES YOUR RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT OR HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY.

If you do not want to agree to these Terms of Use, you must not and cannot access or use the Platform.


Purpose and Explanation of Platform

The Kontor Explorer Platform provides Users with a blockchain explorer for Bitcoin with Kontor protocol extensions. The Platform allows Users to view and search blockchain data, including blocks, transactions, addresses, smart contracts, and tokens. The Platform is an informational tool that displays data from upstream sources including Bitcoin Core, Esplora, Mempool.space, and the Kontor indexer.

Users may optionally connect non-custodial cryptocurrency wallets (such as Xverse or Leather) to the Platform to sign and broadcast Kontor protocol transactions. Wallet connections occur entirely in the User's browser through communication with browser extension wallets. We never receive, store, or have access to private keys, signing authority, or custody of any User assets.

The Platform displays blockchain data "as-is" from upstream sources. We do not validate, verify, guarantee, or otherwise ensure the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any blockchain data, smart contract information, or token data displayed on the Platform. All blockchain data is inherently public and exists independently of the Platform.


No Custody of Assets and Not Functioning as an Exchange

The Kontor Explorer Platform is neither a cryptocurrency exchange nor a digital currency exchange. Unspendable Labs does not take custody of any customer's Bitcoin, digital assets, or private keys, nor does it hold, use, or maintain any personally identifiable information of any User.

Users of the Kontor Explorer Platform may connect their personal cryptocurrency wallet to the Platform to directly sign and broadcast Kontor protocol transactions on the Bitcoin blockchain. We do not have any duty to verify the accuracy, validity, or security of any wallet connected to the Platform, nor will we do so. Users connect their own non-custodial wallets and sign transactions at their own risk.

We will not custody any assets, private keys, or credentials. Wallet connections are client-side only, occurring through browser extension APIs. The Platform uses browser localStorage to save wallet preferences (such as which wallet provider to use and previously connected addresses) but never stores private keys, passwords, or signing credentials.

Risk Disclosure

BY ACCESSING OR USING THE PLATFORM YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY CHOOSING TO ENGAGE IN SOPHISTICATED AND RISKY FINANCIAL TECHNOLOGY. YOU ARE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGING THAT YOU ARE AWARE OF THE MANY RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE OF THIS PLATFORM AND WITH ENGAGING IN BLOCKCHAIN TRANSACTIONS AND SMART CONTRACTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:

  • FINANCIAL LOSS: Blockchain transactions are irreversible. Funds sent to incorrect addresses cannot be recovered. Smart contracts may contain bugs or vulnerabilities that result in loss of funds.

  • TECHNOLOGY RISKS: Blockchain networks are subject to 51% attacks, chain reorganizations, replace-by-fee attacks, frontrunning, and other mempool manipulation. Smart contracts may have bugs, vulnerabilities, or unexpected behavior.

  • WALLET RISKS: Compromised private keys result in total loss of funds. Malicious or incorrectly coded transactions may drain wallet balances. Browser extensions may be compromised or malicious.

  • DATA RISKS: Information displayed on the Platform may be inaccurate, delayed, incomplete, or unavailable. We rely on upstream data sources beyond our control.

  • NETWORK CONFUSION: The Platform supports multiple Bitcoin networks (mainnet, testnet, signet, regtest). Users must verify they are connected to the intended network. Tokens and assets on test networks have no value.


Fees

We do not charge any fees for accessing or using the Kontor Explorer Platform. Users are responsible for paying blockchain network fees (Bitcoin miner fees and Kontor protocol gas costs) when broadcasting transactions.

We reserve the right to introduce fees, subscription plans, or other monetization features in the future. Any such changes will be communicated through updates to these Terms of Use.

SPECIFIC RISKS OF BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY AND DIGITAL ASSETS

Users' use of blockchain networks is subject to the risks and limitations of those networks, which can include, without limitation, fifty-one percent attacks, chain reorganizations, replace-by-fee attacks, frontrunning and other mempool attacks, Sybil attacks, eclipse attacks, compromised private keys, vulnerabilities in core protocol implementations, blockchain splits and forks, as well as third-party dependency risks and infrastructure failures.

Users' use of any wallet or signing mechanism is at their own risk and is subject to the security of that wallet. We do not custody, validate, or verify wallet software or browser extensions. Compromised wallets, malicious browser extensions, phishing attacks, or user error can result in total loss of funds.

While we display blockchain data and smart contract information, all smart contracts involve substantial risk. Smart contracts may contain bugs, vulnerabilities, exploits, or unexpected behavior that can result in loss of funds. Past audits or verification do not guarantee security. We do not audit, verify, or validate any smart contract code.

The price or value of Bitcoin, tokens, and other digital assets can change rapidly, decrease, and potentially fall to zero. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. We do not hold or custody any assets or private keys in any way, and therefore, we are not responsible for any loss of assets resulting from theft, loss, or mishandling of private keys, smart contract exploits, or any other cause.

Users agree to hold Unspendable Labs and the Platform unaccountable for these types of risks and to waive their right to litigate, arbitrate, mediate, or otherwise hold any type of claim against Unspendable Labs for injuries suffered due to use of blockchain networks, smart contracts, or cryptocurrency wallets.


Limitation on Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PROVIDED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE COMPANY, ITS AFFILIATES, OR THEIR LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OFFICERS, OR DIRECTORS BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE PLATFORM, ANY SITES LINKED TO IT, ANY CONTENT ON THE PLATFORM OR SUCH OTHER SITES, ANY BLOCKCHAIN NETWORKS, ANY SMART CONTRACTS, ANY WALLETS, OR ANY UPSTREAM DATA SOURCES, INCLUDING ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PERSONAL INJURY, PAIN AND SUFFERING, EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF CRYPTOCURRENCY OR DIGITAL ASSETS, AND WHETHER CAUSED BY TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF FORESEEABLE.

THE FOREGOING DOES NOT AFFECT ANY LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.


Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Unspendable Labs and any of our parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, vendors, licensors, contractors and agents, and any of our or their owners, managers, officers, employees, successors, assigns, representatives, attorneys and agents (collectively "Indemnified Parties") from any claim or loss resulting from: (i) any noncompliance by you with any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement; (ii) any third-party actions related to your use of the Platform; (iii) your blockchain transactions or wallet connections; (iv) your violation of any law or regulation; or (v) any activities or services of the Indemnified Parties in connection with your use of the Platform.

This indemnification obligation shall survive the termination of this Agreement and your use of the Platform.


Governing Law and Jurisdiction

All matters relating to the Platform and these Terms of Use, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction).

Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of, or related to, these Terms of Use or the Platform shall be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Delaware, in each case located in the City of Wilmington and County of New Castle, although we retain the right to bring any suit, action, or proceeding against you for breach of these Terms of Use in your country of residence or any other relevant country.


Class Action Waiver

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN A PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND UNSPENDABLE LABS AGREE, NO ARBITRATOR OR JUDGE MAY CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS OR ENGAGE IN ANY CLASS ARBITRATION. BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU AND UNSPENDABLE LABS EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO: (1) A JURY TRIAL; AND (2) PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. IF A COURT DECIDES THAT APPLICABLE LAW PRECLUDES ENFORCEMENT OF ANY OF THIS PARAGRAPH'S LIMITATIONS AS TO A PARTICULAR CLAIM FOR RELIEF, THEN THAT CLAIM (AND ONLY THAT CLAIM) MUST BE SEVERED FROM THE ARBITRATION AND MAY BE BROUGHT IN COURT.


Waiver and Severability

No waiver by the Company of any term or condition set out in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Company to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
