Disclaimer

Scope and Purpose

Quetta Research provides Vault-Traded Funds (“VTFs”) as decentralized finance (DeFi) products whereby users deposit assets into on-chain vaults managed by Quetta Research. This disclaimer applies to all VTF offerings, including but not limited to leveraged VTFs, yield-bearing strategies, and any related smart contracts, interfaces, or services (collectively, the “Products”).

No Investment Advice

• Not Professional Advice: Nothing herein constitutes financial, legal, tax, or investment advice or a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any asset.

• User Responsibility: Users must conduct their own due diligence and consult qualified professionals before making any investment decisions.

High-Risk Nature

• Volatility & Leverage: VTFs—especially leveraged variants—can be highly volatile. Leverage amplifies both gains and losses. Users should only participate if they fully understand and can bear the risks.

• No Guarantee of Returns: Past performance, backtests, or simulations are not indicative of future results. There is no guarantee that any strategy will yield profits or protect against losses.

Smart Contract & Security Risks

• Potential Vulnerabilities: Despite best efforts in auditing and security practices, smart contracts and related infrastructure may contain bugs, vulnerabilities, or logic flaws that could be exploited.

• Third-Party Dependencies: Integrations with external protocols, price oracles, bridges, or oracles carry additional risks. Quetta Research does not control external code and is not responsible for third-party failures.

• Hack & Exploit Risk: Users assume all risks of loss due to hacks, exploits, or other security incidents affecting the Products or underlying protocols.

No Liability / “Use at Your Own Discretion”

• “As Is” Basis: The Products are provided “as is,” without warranties of any kind (express, implied, statutory, or otherwise). Quetta Research disclaims all warranties, including fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability, or non-infringement.

• Limitation of Liability: To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Quetta Research, its officers, employees, affiliates, and agents shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of (or inability to use) the Products, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. This includes, without limitation, loss of funds, loss of data, lost profits, or business interruption.

• No Fiduciary Relationship: Use of the Products does not create any fiduciary or advisory relationship between Quetta Research and any user.

Regulatory and Tax Considerations

• Regulatory Uncertainty: DeFi and crypto regulations vary by jurisdiction and may change. Users are responsible for ensuring compliance with any applicable laws, licenses, or restrictions in their jurisdiction.

• Tax Obligations: Participation in VTFs may have tax consequences (income, capital gains, reporting). Quetta Research does not provide tax advice. Users should consult tax professionals regarding their individual circumstances.

User Conduct & Eligibility

• Eligible Participants: Users must ensure they are permitted to access DeFi services under local laws and are not on any prohibited persons lists.

• Responsible Use: Users should follow best practices: secure private keys, use hardware wallets if possible, verify contract addresses, and avoid sharing sensitive credentials.

Changes and Updates

• Right to Modify: Quetta Research reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Products or this disclaimer at any time without prior notice. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

• Smart Contract Upgrades: In case of upgrades or migrations, users are responsible for interacting with the correct contract addresses as announced through official channels.

Dispute Resolution & Governing Law

• Governing Law: Specify the jurisdiction whose laws govern disputes (e.g., “This disclaimer and any disputes hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of [Jurisdiction], without regard to conflict-of-law principles.”). Insert the appropriate jurisdiction or arbitration venue after consulting legal counsel.

• Severability: If any provision is held unenforceable, the remainder remains in full force and effect.

No Endorsements

• No Third-Party Endorsement: References to other protocols, oracles, or services do not imply endorsement by Quetta Research. Users assume risks of interacting with any third parties.
