服务条款
（2023年5月15日更新生效）

数字资产交易存在高度风险。数字资产市场是一个新型和未被检验的市场，且可能由于各种因素经历频繁的价格波动，包括但不仅限于以下因素：（I）与投机者的相对较高使用量相比，数字资产在零售和商业市场的使用量较低，且（II）不能保证那些接受数字资产支付方式的个人或机构在将来仍持接受态度。上述价格波动可能会对投资产生不利影响。因此在使用AscendEX之前，请评估投资的回报与风险，并且确保能够承担短时间内损失全部投资的经济风险。AscendEX平台上的任何材料均不得视为AscendEX的出售意向或AscendEX对数字资产购买意向的征集招募。
AscendEX是一家由罗马尼亚 AscendEX Technology S.R.L.（以下称“本公司”） 运营和专有的数字资产交易所。通过访问网站（https://ascendex.com/）（“网站”）、或通过移动设备、API或其他我司提供的渠道访问平台、注册AscendEX和/或开设账户或使用AscendEX（包括下文定义的平台服务或任何其他AscendEX服务），您同意接受您与我司条款和条件的约束，包括AscendEX可能不时发布的任何更新（“服务条款”）。您承认和同意，您有义务定期查阅《服务条款》并且获悉最新修订内容（如有更新）。请仔细阅读《服务条款》，并且，如果您不同意任何服务条款，请勿访问、进入或使用AscendEX，注册AscendEX或开设AscendEX账户。通过以电子方式同意这些条款，您（1）表明您已阅读并理解这些条款，并同意接受这些条款的法律约束，及（2）声明并保证您有权代表自己或任何您所代表的任何实体或个人行事。请注意，本文件中包含特定司法管辖区的特殊条款，可能会对您适用。《服务条款》中使用的“我司”、“我们”或“我方的”等词语均指本公司及其任何或所有的关联方。

4. 交易和订单

4.1 订单

您在发出订单之前必须存入数字资产到您 AscendEX账户，而且，除非您的AscendEX账户中有充足的数字资产以满足您的订单要求，否则您不得发出订单。在您发出订单之时，所需要的足额数字资产（包括任何费用）在您的AscendEX账户被临时冻结，直到您的订单被成交、失效或被取消。您订单的未成交部分将继续被临时冻结，直到被成交、失效或被取消。您同意，取消您不想成交的任何订单（全部或部分）属于您的责任。您理解，您可能不能在订单成交（部分或全部）之前取消订单，并且我司对于在您提交取消请求之后订单的完成，不负有任何责任。超出您AscendEX账户现有数字资产数额的订单将被拒绝。

您同意和理解，如果出现以下情形，我司保留取消任何订单或任何订单的剩余部分的权利：（i）上述订单在服务中断期间被发出和/或处于活跃状态，（ii）上述订单触发了我司的市场控制措施，或（iii）上述订单基本上不可执行。
您同意和理解，订单可能会受到我司无法控制的订单传输或执行方面的延误和/或其他状况的影响，且我司无须因此承担责任，包括但不仅限于系统故障、机械或电子故障或市场拥塞。如果出现上述影响传输或执行的延误或其他状况，我司不能确保按照订单中的价格执行订单。
您同意和理解，我司保留要求所有订单通过自动合规核查的权利。如果您的订单被任何上述核查标出，或者如果其满足特定的已被定义的标准，这一过程可能需要我司的人工核查和审批。我司将采取商业上合理的措施，及时对上述订单进行核查，但我司对于任何延误不承担任何责任。如果在任何时候您对于您的订单状态存在疑惑，您可以查看AscendEX上您订单的状态。我司可以全权决定取消任何被标示需要进行核查的订单。最后，我司可以在执行之前要求您通过电话或其他认证方式确认您的订单。

4.3 订单成交结算

已被成交、执行或匹配（部分或全部）的所有订单立即进行结算并记录在我司的交易所分类账上。在遵守这些条款的前提下，本公司将在合理可行的范围内尽商业上合理的努力来结算交易。

4.4 市场波动性

在任何数字资产市场出现较高交易量、低流动性、价格快速和剧烈波动时，入市订单或交易执行的实际市场价格，可能不同于您订单或交易发出之时平台显示的现时有效的市场价格。您理解，我司对于上述价格波动不承担任何责任。在出现市场干扰或不可抗力事件时，本公司可以全权决定并无需提前通知：（i）中止访问平台服务；或（ii）阻止您通过平台完成任何操作，包括平仓操作。或者（iii）因市场扰动或其他相关外部不可预见事件而暂停平台交易。因此，对于公司因此类市场扰乱或不可抗力事件而采取的任何行动所造成的任何索赔损失或利润损失，AscendEX概不负责。
在上述事件发生后，如果交易得以恢复，您同意和理解现时有效的市场价格可能会与此事件发生之前的市场价格存在较大差异。

4.5 故障、错误和中断

任何系统都可能在这时或那时发生故障，通常原因都超出了人力控制范围，包括通过平台提供的服务。在平台上提供服务的任何一个阶段，包括但不仅限于订单发出、订单匹配、交易过程或确认过程，AscendEX都可能出现故障、错误或中断，包括网络安全相关事件。如果出现上述故障、错误或中断，我司将审查在此期间内的所有订单和交易。在出现错误或中断之时，我司保留部分或全部取消任何订单和/或撤回任何交易的权利。除非出现特殊情形，我司将在最短时间内且在查明任何系统故障、错误订单、错误交易、中断或问题后的三个工作日内采取行动。我司对于因系统或网络故障或其他原因导致的任何故障、错误或中断不承担任何责任，并且，如果您要求获得最高级别的可靠性，您同意与其他服务提供商或交易所建立次级交易机制。

4.6 撤回、取消

您不能取消、撤回或改变被标示为“已完成”、“审查中”、“待执行”（或其他类似意思的词语）的任何交易。如果您未能支付成功或者您在支付过程中存在数字资产不足的情形，您授权本公司根据其自行判断，取消该交易，或者在您的数字资产账户或关联账户中减计必要金额以完成该项交易。您有责任确保有充足的余额和/或充足的信用额度，以避免透支、数字资产不足或相关费用不足等情形。如果我司怀疑某项交易涉及（或较高的参与风险）（1）洗钱、恐怖主义融资、诈骗或其他类型的金融犯罪，或者（2）为了对传票、法庭命令或其他政府命令做出回应，或者（3）如果我司合理怀疑该交易为错误交易，或者（4）如果我司怀疑该项交易涉及被禁止的用途（参见《服务条款》中的定义）或被禁止的业务； 即使该交易已被标示为“已完成”（或其他相同含义的词语），我司也有权根据其自行判断拒绝处理、取消或撤回任何数字资产交换、买入或出售的操作。在这种情况下，我司将撤回交易且我司没有义务允许您在同样的价格水平下或者根据与被取消交易相同的条款，再次启动交易、买入或出售订单。

4.7 互联网传输风险

您承认，利用基于互联网的交易系统（例如本平台）可能存在各种风险，包括但不仅限于硬件、软件和互联网连接故障，或网络安全事件风险。您承认及同意，本公司对于您在通过本平台开展交易时遭遇的通讯故障、中断、错误、干扰或延迟，无论其导致的原因如何，均不负任何责任。

4.8 交易限额

使用AscendEX的所有服务须受您在某一特定时间段内（例如每天）可以交易或转让的、以法定货币和/或数字资产计算的总计金额的限制。您的交易限额根据您完成的验证步骤或我司规定的其他条件而有所不同。我司保留根据我司自行判断调整我司认为有必要的限额。如果您想在公布金额上提高额度，您可以将请求发送至 support@ascendex.com 。我司可能要求您提交有关您或您业务的额外信息，提供有关记录和参加与我司员工的会议（该程序被称为“升级尽调”）。我司保留向您收取与升级尽调有关的成本和费用。根据我司自行判断，我司有权拒绝提高您的额度，或者，即使您已经完成升级尽调，我司可以在将来改变以及降低您的额度。

4.9 交易费用表

AscendEX的交易费用表（“交易费用表”）将不时更新并公布在AscendEX平台上。您接受本平台的《服务条款》被视为接受该《交易费用表》。AscendEX保留在任何时候改变、修改和/或增加平台交易费用的权利。《交易费用表》修改之后，一旦公布，立即生效。您知晓并同意，在《交易费用表》发生变化之后登录您的账户和/或使用AscendEX即表示您同意接受最新版的《交易费用表》。您同意支付与您使用AscendEX相关的所有费用（包括交易费用）。在用户账户连续12个月未进行任何交易活动的情况下，将收取休眠账户费用，金额为10美元。如果用户账户的余额小于休眠账户费用，AscendEX会将该费用减少至剩余账户余额的金额，直至余额变为0美元。休眠账户费用不会导致账户余额为负。对连续12个月休眠后再重新进行交易活动的账户，将不再收取休眠账户费用，直至账户再次休眠为止。

4.10 转让费用表

AscendEX的数字资产转让费用表（“转让费用表”）将不时公布在AscendEX平台上。您接受《服务条款》被视为您接受我司的《转让费用表》。我司保留在任何时候改变、修改或增加我司转让费用的权利。《转让费用表》修改之后，一旦公布，立即生效。您同意，通过在《转让费用表》发生变化之后登录您的账户和/或使用AscendEX，您同意我司修订版的《转让费用表》。您同意支付因您对AscendEX的使用导致的或与之相关的所有费用（包括转让费用）。

4.11明显错误交易政策

在执行之时，当价格明显与现行市场价格（基于来自https://coinmarketcap.com/ 或其他此类网站的信息）存在重大不一致时，我司认定该交易为明显错误或明显有误交易（“明显错误交易”）。在做出判定之时，我司将考虑交易之时的状况、保持市场健全以及维护公平、有序市场的重要性。您须确保相关价格和、订单类型已经输入AscendEX。您仅仅宣称在输入订单时出现错误或您未能注意或更新订单，这都不足以构成一项明显错误交易。

任何一方均须在争议发生之日起30日内，将该争议以书面形式告知另外一方，以便协议双方可以秉承诚实信用原则，以非正式机制解决争议。寄送给卖方的通知可以电子邮件形式发送到 support@ascendex.com 。寄送给您的通知可能发布在网站上，或者通过您所留电子邮箱（如有）发送给您。您的通知必须包含：（i）您的姓名、邮寄地址、电子邮箱地址和电话号码；（ii）一份对争议性质或依据的充分详细说明；以及（iii）您寻求的具体救济。如果您和卖方未能在相关方收到通知之日起三十（30）日内就如何解决争议达成一致，那么您或者卖方可以，在适当情形下根据本条款规定，提起一项仲裁程序，或者在本条款规定的范围之内，向法庭提起诉讼。
仲裁员不具有开展集团仲裁或代表/集团诉讼的权限，本《服务条款》禁止授予此种权限。仲裁员只能开展单独的仲裁，且不得将多于一人的请求合并审理，不得审理任何类型的集团或代表程序，也不得审理多于一人的任何程序。
如果本条的任何条款、规定、要求被判定为无效或不可执行，那么判定的无效和不可执行部分应当在法律适用和规定的最小范围之内，且本条所有其他的条款、规定和要求继续有效和可执行。并且，除非被法律所禁止，本条载明的弃权声明与《服务条款》中的其他条款属于可分割，且将继续有效和可执行。

DIGITAL ASSET TRADING INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. THE DIGITAL ASSET MARKET IS NEW AND UNPROVEN AND MAY EXPERIENCE FREQUENT PRICE VOLATILITY DUE TO A VARIETY OF FACTORS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION (I) THE INSIGNIFICANT USE OF DIGITAL ASSETS IN THE RETAIL AND COMMERCIAL MARKETPLACE IN COMPARISON TO RELATIVELY SIGNIFICANT USE BY SPECULATORS AND (II) THE LACK OF ASSURANCE THAT A PERSON OR INSTITUTION WHO ACCEPTS DIGITAL ASSETS AS PAYMENT TODAY WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO IN THE FUTURE. SUCH PRICE VOLATILITY MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT AN INVESTMENT IN DIGITAL ASSETS; THEREFORE, PRIOR TO USING ASCENDEX, PLEASE EVALUATE THE MERITS AND RISKS OF THE INVESTMENT AND ENSURE ABILITY TO BEAR THE ECONOMIC RISK OF LOSING YOUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. NOTHING ON THE ASCENDEX WEBSITE OR PLATFORM SHOULD BE CONSTRUED AS AN OFFER BY ASCENDEX TO SELL OR SOLICITATION BY ASCENDEX OF ANY OFFER TO BUY DIGITAL ASSETS.
AscendEX is a digital asset trading platform operated by and proprietary to AscendEX Technology S.R.L. (the Company), a Romania company. By accessing the AscendEX websites at https://ascendex.com/ or https://www.{{ $_CN_DOMAIN }} (the "Website"), accessing the AscendEX platform through mobile devices, API or other connectivity channels offered by the Company, signing up to AscendEX and/or opening an account or using AscendEX (including its Platform service, as defined below, or any other AscendEX service), you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions between you and the Company, including any revisions from time to time as may be published by AscendEX ("Terms").

1. SERVICES

1.1 AscendEX (ASD)

The Company operates a digital asset trading platform (“Platform”) that facilitates the buying and selling of Digital Assets (as defined herein) by the Platform user (“User”) and other ancillary services, including but not limited to, cash /spot trading, leveraged trading, Staking Services, and Copy Trading Service subscriptions. You may use your AscendEX account to place orders (each, an "Order") to buy, hold and/or sell Digital Assets. When our Platform's matching engines match Orders, a trade (each, a "Trade") occurs. Unmatched orders rest on the Platform’s order book (each, an "Order Book"). Each Trade (i) transfers ownership of Digital Assets between Users, (ii) is recorded on our internal ledger ("Exchange Ledger"), and (iii) is reflected through records held by us in each User's Digital Asset Account (which shall be final and conclusive except in the unforeseeable events such as malicious attacks and/or system-related issues where the Company needs to review all the records and ascertain the actions required). All Platform trading activity is "off-chain" and not broadcast to a given blockchain.

Only individuals or institutions that have successfully completed and submitted all requested documentation in accordance with our Compliance Program may open a AscendEX user account ("AscendEX Account"). You hereby authorise the Company, or a third-party service provider, to take all measures necessary to verify and authenticate your identity, confirm the bank account information you submit (if applicable), and to take any action we deem necessary based on the results.

You agree that you will not allow any other individual or institution to access or use your AscendEX Account.

2.3 ACCOUNT ACCESS

You are only permitted to access your AscendEX Account using your user account login credentials and other required forms of authentication. In order to ensure safety and security of your AscendEX Account, we may require multi-factor authentication when accessing your AscendEX Account and/or performing certain operations in your AscendEX Account. Forms of multi-factor authentication, in addition to your login credentials, may include secret messages delivered to your registered mobile number through short message service ("SMS") or a specified and supported two-factor authentication ("2FA") application. If you choose to install and use a 2FA application on a device (e.g., phone or tablet) on which the operating system has been tampered with in any way, you do so at your own risk. This includes, but is not limited to, a "rooted" (Android) or "jailbroken" (iOS) device.

2.4 ACCOUNT HISTORY

A historical record of your transactions on the Platform ("Account History") is available on AscendEX and contains information regarding your trading activity; however, please note that your Account History should not be treated as a valuation of your account. We use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the information contained in your Account History and any notices the Company provides to you are accurate and reliable; however, errors may occur from time to time and such errors do not impact the actual means and results of a given transaction. It is your sole responsibility to review your Account History and any notices. Any transaction listed in your Account History, or other communication including, but not limited to, Order, Trade or other receipts sent to your email on record shall be deemed and treated as authorized, correct, approved, and confirmed by you unless we receive written notice to the contrary within three business days from the date the transaction was listed or the communication was sent (as the case may be).

2.5 ACCOUNT COMMUNICATION

You understand and agree that all communication with you will be via email. We will use the email address on record for your AscendEX Account as our primary means of communicating with you. To ensure that you receive all of our communications, you agree to keep your email address up-to-date and immediately notify us if there are any changes. Delivery of any communication to the email address on record is considered valid, and will be deemed to have been acknowledged as authorized, correct, approved, and confirmed by you unless we have received written notice to the contrary within three business days from the date the communication was sent. If any email communication is returned as undeliverable, the Company retains the right to block your access to AscendEX until you provide and confirm a new and valid email address.

2.6 ACCOUNT SUSPENSION

You acknowledge and agree that, once an account or Related Account (as herein defined) is opened, the Company has the right, at its sole discretion, to immediately suspend your account and all accounts beneficially owned by you and any members of your household or for which you are a representative or authorised signatory and, in the case of entities, any affiliates (each, a "Related Account" or “Related Party”), freeze/lock the Digital Assets in all such accounts, and/or suspend your access to AscendEX, until a determination has been made, if we suspect any such accounts to be in violation of (i) any Applicable Laws or Regulations, (ii) any provision of these Terms, (iii) our Marketplace Conduct Rules in Section 4.13 herein, or (iv) our Compliance Program (each, a "Breach of Terms").
You further acknowledge and agree that we have the right to immediately suspend your account and any Related Account, freeze/lock the Digital Assets in all such accounts, and/or suspend your access to AscendEX until a determination has been made, if (a) we are required to do so by any regulatory or government authority or court order, (b) the account is, or is related to any account that is, subject to any pending litigation, investigation, or governmental proceeding, (c) the account has a negative balance for any reason, (d) the account has a balance that needs to be reconciled for any reason, (e) we believe someone is attempting to gain unauthorised access to the account, (f) we believe there is unusual activity in the account, (g) we believe you are using AscendEX, your login credentials, or other account information in an unauthorised or inappropriate manner, or (h) the account has not been accessed in two years or more.

You further acknowledge and agree that neither you nor any Related Party shall impede or delay any investigation or proceeding conducted pursuant to these Terms, nor refuse to comply with any request made pursuant to these Terms.
Following the conclusion of an investigation, we will make, in our sole discretion, a determination based upon the weight of the evidence. If a suspected Breach of Terms pertains to our Marketplace Conduct Rules (as defined herein), we may consider a variety of factors in assessing whether your conduct has breached our Marketplace Conduct Rules, including without limitation your intent and motives, prevailing market conditions, the effect on other market participants, your historical pattern of activity, and your activity in related markets or exchanges.
You acknowledge and agree that if your account or any Related Account is determined, in our sole discretion, to have committed a Breach of Terms, we have the right to terminate any such accounts and take any and all necessary and appropriate actions pursuant to these Terms and/or Applicable Laws and Regulations.

2.8 ACCOUNT CLOSURE

You may close any of your accounts at any time. For the avoidance of doubt, closing an account will not affect any rights and obligations incurred prior to the date of such account closure. You may be required to either cancel or complete all open orders and, in accordance with the provisions of these Terms, provide transfer instructions of where to transfer any Digital Assets remaining in your account. You are responsible for any fees, costs, expenses, charges, or obligations (including, but not limited to, legal fees or transfer costs of the Digital Assets) associated with the closing of your account. In the event that the costs of closing of your account exceed the value in your account, you will be responsible for reimbursing us. You may not close any of your accounts to avoid paying any fees otherwise due or to avoid any examination related to our Compliance Program.

2.9 CONFIDENTIALITY

You agree that the information contained in your AscendEX Account is confidential and intended only for you and that you will not cause others to rely upon it (save as otherwise prescribed by law) without our prior written consent.
In addition, and for the avoidance of doubt, you agree and understand that we share information concerning you and your accounts as follows: (i) with our third-party service providers that we use or may use to process Digital Assets in connection with the Platform services contemplated by these Terms, in accordance with our ordinary business operations; (ii) with appropriate governmental, state or federal regulatory authorities, and self-regulatory organisations, as we determine, in our sole discretion, is required or otherwise appropriate in connection with our regulatory requirements; and (iii) in response to a court or government order. We may also disclose information about you and your accounts to any AscendEX service provider in accordance with Applicable Laws and Regulations, these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and customary banking practices. Lastly, you agree that we may obtain and use such information as may be necessary for legitimate business needs in connection with the operation of AscendEX.

In making determination, we take into account the circumstances at the time of the transaction, the preservation of the integrity of the market, and the maintenance of a fair and orderly marketplace. You are responsible for ensuring that the appropriate price and Order type is entered into AscendEX. A simple assertion by you that a mistake was made in entering an Order, or that you failed to pay attention to or update an Order, will not be sufficient to establish it as a Manifestly Incorrect Transaction.
You acknowledge and agree that if we determine a transaction to be a Manifestly Incorrect Transaction, we may declare it null and void, in whole or in part, even if you and/or the other party do not agree to cancel or modify it. In determining whether a transaction is a Manifestly Incorrect Transaction, we may consider (without limitation) (i) suspicious trading activity (as determined by the Company), (ii) violations of our Marketplace Conduct Rules, (iii) any obvious error in any term, including, but not limited to, price, amount of Digital Assets, or other unit of trading, (iv) occurrence of any disruption or malfunction in the operation of any trading system or component of the Platform, AscendEX, a AscendEX Service Provider, or a Digital Asset network ("Digital Asset Network"), or (v) if there was extraordinary market conditions or other circumstances in which the nullification or modification of transactions may be necessary for the maintenance of a fair and orderly market.
Absent extraordinary circumstances, the Company will decide and take any action pursuant to this Manifestly Incorrect Transaction Policy within one business day of a transaction. In the event an extraordinary circumstance exists, the Company will decide and take any action pursuant to this Manifestly Incorrect Transaction Policy within seven business days of a transaction.

Your acceptance of these Terms is considered to be your acceptance of our Marketplace Controls. We reserve the right to change or modify our Marketplace Controls at any time, and any changes will take effect immediately upon our notification of such change.

7. DIGITAL ASSETS

7.1 DIGITAL ASSETS

As used herein, "Digital Asset" means a digital asset (also called a "cryptocurrency", "virtual currency", "digital currency", or "digital commodity"), such as bitcoin or ether, which is based on the cryptographic protocol of a computer network that may be (i) centralised or decentralised, (ii) closed or open-source, and (iii) used as a medium of exchange and/or store of value.

7.2 DIGITAL ASSET DEPOSITS

Digital Asset deposits will typically be credited to your AscendEX Account after the requisite number of network confirmations (as may be determined by the Company in its sole discretion) have occurred on the blockchain for the deposited Digital Asset. In certain situations, Digital Asset deposits may be delayed in connection with Stoppages or congestion of or disruption to a Digital Asset Network.

7.3 DIGITAL ASSET WITHDRAWALS

Digital Assets withdrawals will typically be processed at the speed of a Digital Asset Network. In certain situations, Digital Asset withdrawals may be delayed in connection with Stoppages or the congestion or disruption of a Digital Asset Network.

7.4 DIGITAL ASSET NETWORKS

The Company doesnot own or control the underlying software protocols or cryptographic protocols of Digital Asset Networks which govern the operation of Digital Assets. These underlying protocols are generally open source and anyone can use, copy, modify, distribute them. You acknowledge and agree that: (i) the Company is not responsible for the operation of the underlying protocols, and (ii) the Company makes no guarantees regarding their security, functionality, or availability of such Digital Asset Networks

7.5 SUPPORTED NETWORKS

You acknowledge and agree that we support certain Digital Asset Networks on AscendEX (each, a "Supported Network"). The list of Supported Networks (including, without limitation Bitcoin and Ether) will be made available on the AscendEX platform from time to time. We reserve the right to amend the list of Supported Networks at our sole discretion, which will take effect immediately upon such time as we may prescribe.

7.6 SUPPORTED DIGITAL ASSETS

You acknowledge and agree that we support certain Digital Assets of Supported Networks on AscendEX (each, a "Supported Digital Asset"). Please regularly check the AscendEX website for the latest information with respect to Supported Digital Assets.
Digital Assets of an unsupported Digital Asset Network or Digital Assets that operate "on top of", or are derived from, or based or developed on a Supported Network, unless explicitly named herein, are not considered Supported Digital Assets (each, an "Unsupported Digital Asset").

7.7 FORKS

You acknowledge and agree that the underlying protocols of Supported Networks are subject to changes in operating rules (each a "Fork") that may result in more than one version of such Supported Network (each, a "Forked Network") and us holding an identical amount of Digital Assets associated with each Forked Network. You further acknowledge and agree that that Forks may materially affect the value, function, and/or name of the Digital Assets you hold on AscendEX.
In the event of a Fork, you agree and understand that we may temporarily suspend the operations of AscendEX (with or without advance notice to you) while we choose, in our sole discretion, except as otherwise described herein, which Forked Networks to support. You acknowledge and agree that AscendEX does not support Forked Networks and that the Digital Assets of Forked Networks relating to Digital Asset addresses, which we control, will not be made available to you.
DIGITAL ASSET VALUES CAN FLUCTUATE SUBSTANTIALLY WHICH MAY RESULT IN A TOTAL LOSS OF THE VALUE OF DIGITAL ASSETS HELD BY US ON YOUR BEHALF. THE SUPPLY OF DIGITAL ASSETS AVAILABLE TO US TO PROVIDE TO YOU AS A RESULT OF A FORKED NETWORK AND OUR ABILITY TO DELIVER DIGITAL ASSETS RESULTING FROM A FORKED NETWORK MAY DEPEND ON THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS THAT ARE OUTSIDE OF OUR CONTROL. WE DO NOT OWN OR CONTROL ANY OF THE PROTOCOLS THAT ARE USED IN CONNECTION WITH DIGITAL ASSETS AND THEIR RELATED DIGITAL ASSET NETWORKS, INCLUDING THOSE RESULTING FROM A FORKED NETWORK. ACCORDINGLY, WE DISCLAIM ALL LIABILITY RELATING TO SUCH PROTOCOLS AND ANY CHANGE IN THE VALUE OF ANY DIGITAL ASSETS (WHETHER OF A FORKED NETWORK OR OTHERWISE), AND WE MAKE NO GUARANTEES REGARDING THE SECURITY, FUNCTIONALITY, OR AVAILABILITY OF SUCH PROTOCOLS OR DIGITAL ASSET NETWORKS. YOU ACCEPT ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE OF ASCENDEX TO CONDUCT TRANSACTIONS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, FAILURES OF HARDWARE, SOFTWARE, AND INTERNET CONNECTIONS.

7.8 BITCOIN FORKS

In the event of a Fork of the Bitcoin Network, we will support the Forked Network that requires the greatest total threshold number of hash attempts to mine all existing blocks measured during the 48-hour period following a Fork (the "Greatest Cumulative Computational Difficulty") and will call its Digital Asset "bitcoin" and use the ticker "BTC." You agree and understand that we may, in our sole discretion, suspend operations, in whole or in part (with or without advance notice), for however long we deem necessary, while we make this determination; however, we will not suspend bitcoin trading. If we are unable to make a conclusive determination as to which Forked Network has the Greatest Cumulative Computational Difficulty, or if we, in consultation with our consultants or advisors ("Consultants"), determine in good faith that Greatest Cumulative Computational Difficulty is not a reasonable criterion upon which to make a determination, we will support the Forked Network that we, in consultation with our Consultants, deem in good faith is most likely to be supported by the greatest number of users and miners and will call its Digital Asset "bitcoin" and use the ticker "BTC." We may also support the other Forked Network, in which case we will call its Digital Asset by a different name and use a different ticker.

7.9 ETHEREUM FORKS

In the event of a Fork of the Ethereum Network, we will support the Forked Network that has the Greatest Cumulative Computational Difficulty and will call its Digital Asset "ether" and use the ticker "ETH." You agree and understand that we may, in our sole discretion, suspend operations, in whole or in part (with or without advance notice), for however long we deem necessary, while we make this determination; however, we will not suspend ether trading. If we are unable to make a conclusive determination as to which Forked Network has the Greatest Cumulative Computational Difficulty, or if we, in consultation with our Consultants, determine in good faith that Greatest Cumulative Computational Difficulty is not a reasonable criterion upon which to make a determination, we will support the Forked Network that we, in consultation with our Consultants, deem in good faith is most likely to be supported by the greatest number of users and miners and will call its Digital Asset "ether" and use the ticker "ETH." We may also support the other Forked Network, in which case we will call its Digital Asset by a different name and use a different ticker.

7.10 FORKS OF NETWORKS OF OTHER SUPPORTED DIGITAL ASSETS

Section 7.9 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to forks of networks of other Supported Digital Assets - we will generally support the Forked Network that has the Greatest Cumulative Computational Difficulty.

7.11 UNSUPPORTED FORKED NETWORKS

You agree and understand that we may choose, in our sole discretion, except as described herein, not to support a Forked Network (each, an "Unsupported Forked Network") and that you have no right, claim, or other privilege to any Digital Assets of an Unsupported Forked Network. With respect to an Unsupported Forked Network, we will treat its Digital Assets as Unsupported Digital Assets and we may, in our sole discretion, elect to: (i) abandon or otherwise not pursue obtaining its Digital Assets, (ii) pursue and retain its Digital Assets as property belonging solely to the Company, or (iii) determine your balance at the time of the Fork, account for it as your property, and make it available to you via a one-time withdrawal mechanism (subject to the withholding and retention by the Company of any amount reasonably necessary, as determined in our sole discretion, to fairly compensate us for the efforts expended to make such Digital Assets available). A withdrawal pursuant to this section does not make an Unsupported Forked Network a Supported Network or its Digital Assets Supported Digital Assets.
If we decide to support an Unsupported Forked Network and its Digital Assets in the future, we will determine your balance at the time of the Fork (minus any applicable withdrawals in accordance with this Section) and account for it as your property, which will be reflected in your Digital Asset Account.

7.12 UNSOLICITED TRANSFERS

You acknowledge and agree that in the event that a third-party deposits Supported Digital Assets into a Digital Asset address that we control, we have the right to and will account for any such Supported Digital Assets as (i) your property if sent to your Digital Asset Account, or (ii) our property, belonging solely to us, if sent to any other Digital Asset address that we control. You agree and understand that in the event that you or a third-party deposits Unsupported Digital Assets into a Digital Asset address that we control, we have the right to and will account for any such Unsupported Digital Assets as our property.
You further acknowledge and agree that the types of transfers described in this Section (each an "Unsolicited Transfer") do not create a relationship between us and the sender and do not subject us to any obligations with respect to the sender.

7.13 RETURN OF UNSOLICITED TRANSFERS

You acknowledge and agree that we have absolutely no obligation or duty to return the Digital Assets of an Unsolicited Transfer. Exceptions to this Section will be considered and made on a case-by-case basis, in our sole discretion.

7.14 AIRDROPS

You acknowledge and agree that in the event that a Digital Asset Network attempts to or does distribute (sometimes called "airdropping" or "bootstrapping") its Digital Assets to Digital Asset addresses of a Supported Network, we will treat this Digital Asset Network as an Unsupported Forked Network.
You further acknowledge and agree that airdropped Digital Assets do not create a relationship between us and the sender and/or the related Digital Asset Network and do not subject us to any obligations with respect to the sender and/or the related Digital Asset Network.

7.15 UNCLAIMED PROPERTY

In the event, there are Digital Assets in your AscendEX Account, and we are unable to contact you and has no record of your use of the services on the Platform for a period of time, applicable law may require us to report these Digital Assets as unclaimed property to the applicable jurisdiction. If this occurs, we will attempt to locate you at the last known address in our records, but if we are unable to locate you, we may be required to deliver any such Digital Assets to the applicable jurisdiction as unclaimed property.

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 the Singapore International Arbitration Centre ("SIAC") in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre ("SIAC Rules") for the time being in force, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference in this section. The seat of the arbitration shall be Singapore. The Tribunal shall consist of 1 arbitrator. The language of the arbitration 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@ascendex.com . 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.
