The general nature of transactions supported by the Platform will vary in structure and attributes according to the specific architecture of the sale of the Digital Assets as established by Ethos and the Brand from time to time. Such transaction types may change at any time without prior notice to you.

Ethos and the Brand may define an event or multiple events of scheduled duration of listing for sale or offer of DigitalAssets by each relevant Brandon the Platform (each event a “Campaign”). Sales of Digital Assets conducted in each Campaign are subject to certain terms (including, but not limited to timelines, deadlines, pricing structures, Hold Periods, Brand Utility, currencies, auction attributes or any other design features at the sole discretion of Ethos or the Brand established for and applicable to each specific Campaign).

The following sections of these Terms describe the general nature of transaction types (such transaction types being a) Digital Asset purchases, b) eDrop / Stamp DigitalAsset and c) Digital Asset transfers, collectively the “Transactions”) that may be available on or supported by the Platform. Specific terms applicable to any transactions, includingNFT Transactions, shall be subject to specific terms established by Ethos or the Brand associated with the relevant Campaign and / or the specific transaction and may or may not include aspects included in the general transaction descriptions below.

Digital Asset Purchases - Auction Transaction Structure

NFTs may be offered for sale in an auction transaction structure (“Auction Transaction Structure”). NFT Transactions conducted within an Auction Transaction Structure may be conducted in an “English” auction structure, and may include the following general attributes:

  • A suggested starting price or reserve price for the Digital Assets may be stated.
  • The Platform may accept increasingly higher bids from users in increments. Submission of a bid within the Platform by a user shall be considered to be the offer process constitute a valid and lawful offer to purchase such Digital Assets.
  • The user with the highest bid at any given time is considered to have the standing bid, which can only be displaced by a higher bid from another user.
  • If no other user submits a bid which is higher than the standing bid within the permitted timeframe or by the end of the specified time period, the standing bid becomes the successful price offered by the user, and the Digital Assets are sold to the user at a price equal to the Purchase Price subject to the purchase meeting the conditions required to qualify as a Final Purchase. For clarity, even if you hold the standing bid at the end of the permitted timeframe, your purchase may not become a FinalPurchase if your transaction is not validated and accepted by Ethos.
  • If no user bids an amount equal to the starting price or otherwise accepts the starting price, Ethos may either lower the starting price in increments and bidders maybe allowed to bid prices lower than the starting price, or Ethos may purchase the DigitalAssets for the revised price, or the Digital Assets may not be sold at all, at the sole discretion of Ethos.

Other auction formats and structures may be offered by Ethos from time to time for specific sales offered through the Platform.

Digital Asset Purchases - List Price Transaction Structure

Digital Assets may be offered for sale in a list price transaction structure (“List Price Transaction Structure”), meaning that Digital Assets offered for sale are offered at an established and fixed set price with no bidding or auction process required. The user may select the Digital Assets, if available, and continue through the payment process functionality of the Platform. Such actions shall be considered to be the offer process and constitute a valid and lawful offer to purchase such Digital Assets. The DigitalAssets are sold to the user at a price equal to the Purchase Price subject to meeting the conditions required to qualify as a Final Purchase. Such Digital Assets may be subject to availability as quantities may be limited by Ethos, the Brand or the attributes of each relevant Campaign.

If more offers are received from users within the established timeframe than DigitalAssets are available for purchase, the offers may be prioritized based on the time stamped sequencing of offers received by Ethos, in accordance with Ethos records and at Ethos sole discretion. Ethos may notify users that their offer was not successful and that their offer has been cancelled. Any payments received by Ethos for such orders shall be returned and refunded to such users.

Other list price formats and structures may be offered by Ethos from time to time for specific sales offered through the Platform.

eDrop / Stamp Digital Assets

Digital Assets may be offered for sale to you based on certain qualifying criteria, obligations or metrics established from time to time by Ethos or the Brand fora Purchase Price equal to $0 (“eDrop / Stamp Digital Assets”). Such eDrop / Stamp Digital Assets are Digital Assets in all aspects and for purposes of these Terms and therefore carry all attributes and characteristic of all other DigitalAssets as set out in these Terms. For clarity, such Digital Assets are separately defined as eDrop / Stamp Digital Assets solely to denote that such DigitalAssets are offered for sale to you at no cost and therefore have a PurchasePrice equal to $0. eDrop / Stamp Digital Assets are otherwise identical to the characteristics and attributes of all other Digital Assets.

Digital Asset Transfers

Digital Assets may be transferred a) from your Account to another user Account on the Platform or to your Account from another user Account on the Platform, or b) from your Account to your external blockchain wallet (collectively a “Transfer” or “Transfers”).  

Transfers are not reversible and cannot be undone at any time. Transfers represent a permanent and irrevocable transfer of ownership of the Digital Assets. Upon completion of aTransfer, Ethos shall record the details of the Transfer and specifically to de-register the initiator of the Transfer as rightful owner of the DigitalAssets and to re-register ownership of the Digital Assets according to the destination details and recipient of the Transfer. Upon completion of the Transfer, the new owner of such Digital Assets shall be the subsequent registered owner of the Digital Assets for purposes of these Terms and as such shall be entitled to and subject to all obligations, rights and benefits carried by such Digital Assets. You acknowledge and agree that by initiating a Transfer, you are forever forgoing and relinquishing all ownership rights in such Digital Assets and any rights, benefits or Brand Utility associated with ownership of such Digital Assets.

Transfers do not in any respect represent the sale of such Digital Assets and accordingly the initiator of a Transfer is not entitled to any proceeds, fees or any other forms of compensation upon initiation or completion of a Transfer. If the Transfer is to another user Account on the Platform, then you acknowledge and agree that such user shall receive the Digital Assets at no cost to such user and accordingly such Digital Assets may have a historic cost of nil to such user. If the Transfer is to an external Blockchain wallet of which you are the rightful owner, then you may be responsible for recording and tracking your historic cost of the Digital Assets Transferred.

You acknowledge and agree that by initiating a Transfer, you are forever forgoing and relinquishing any and all claim to the Purchase Price, Fees or associated sales taxes paid or any other costs you may have incurred or paid to acquire such Digital Assets as well as any unrealized appreciation in market value of such Digital Assets however estimated, inferred, perceived or otherwise measured.

In the case of you sending cryptocurrency funds as payment for purchase of Digital Assets, you acknowledge that the purchase of such Digital Assets maybe represented or displayed by Ethos or the Platform as ‘pending’ following your transmission of such cryptocurrency funds until the time of receipt of such cryptocurrency funds are confirmed by Ethos.

Purchases of Digital Assets (including Digital Assets that have been minted as NFTs) are irreversible and refunds are not offered to the user or in any way are refunds in whole or in part possible.

The risk of material financial loss associated with purchasingDigital Assets (including Digital Assets that have been minted as NFTs) can be substantial.

You accept all consequences of using the Platform, including the risk that you may lose your Digital Assets or NFTs indefinitely and you may experience material financial losses. All activity and transaction decisions, including those relating to Transactions, are made solely by you.
