Description and Use of the Platform and Services

L1 provides a non-custodial service, made available through the Platform, that allows (i) Digital Asset (as defined below) investors to search, find, connect, and communicate with Investment Advisers (each, an “IA”) and (ii) IAs, asset managers and index providers (collectively, “AMs”) to list their trade strategies and indexes on the Platform, including performance history and general information, to which IAs may be able to subscribe and use for their own trading strategies (such services, collectively, the “Services”).

“Digital Asset” means a digital asset (also known as, “cryptocurrency,” “virtual currency,” or “tokens”), such as bitcoin or ether, which is a digital representation of value based on (or built on top of) a cryptographic protocol of a computer network (also known as a “blockchain”).

L1 is not providing any portfolio management services in connection with the Platform or Services and is not affiliated or associated with any IA or AM on the Platform. We do not broker transactions on your behalf, advise on the merits of any particular Digital Asset transactions, or associated risks, or provide any other financial, investment or legal advice in connection with the Services. To the extent that we do provide investment data, post market commentary, articles, or make social media posts, the act of doing so is incidental to your relationship with us and such information may not be considered as investment or financial advice and should not be construed as such. ANY DECISION TO BUY OR SELL DIGITAL ASSET IS SOLELY THE USER’S DECISION AND WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENT LOSS.

You should carefully review all claims and representations made by an IA or AM before making any decisions. If you choose to engage in transactions based on information received through the Platform or Services, then such decisions and transactions and any consequences flowing therefrom are your sole responsibility.

L1 does not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of Information obtained through the Platform or Services. Any reliance you place on information obtained through the Platform, Services, any AM or any IA (“Investment Information”) is strictly at your own risk. L1 expressly disclaims all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on Investment Information by you, or by anyone who may be informed of any Investment Information.

L1 OFFERS AN ADMINISTRATIVE PLATFORM ONLY. L1 IS NOT A BROKER, DEALER, FINANCIAL INSTITUTION, EXCHANGE, CUSTODIAN, ROBO-ADVISOR, INTERMEDIARY, OR CREDITOR. THE PLATFORM DOES NOT FACILITATE TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN DIGITAL ASSET BUYERS AND SELLERS. L1 ONLY FACILITATES THE INTERACTIONS AND CONNECTIONS AMONG DIGITAL ASSET INVESTORS IAS AND AMS. L1 IS NOT A PARTY TO ANY TRANSACTIONS RESULTING FROM ANY USE OF THE PLATFORM OR SERVICES.

L1 DOES NOT PROVIDE FINANCIAL ADVISORY, LEGAL, REGULATORY, OR TAX ADVICE OR SERVICES DIRECTLY, INDIRECTLY, IMPLICITLY, OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER. YOU SHOULD NOT CONSIDER ANY CONTENT CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE POSTED ON THE PLATFORM TO BE A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL FINANCIAL, LEGAL, REGULATORY, TAX OR OTHER ADVICE.

We may, in our sole and absolute discretion, without liability to you or any third-party, refuse to let you use of the Platform and/or Services. Such actions may be taken as a result of a number of factors, including without limitation legal/regulatory requirements or demand, our discretion, or your violation of the terms of this Agreement. We may also temporarily suspend your access to the Platform and/or Services if a technical problem so requires.
