This agreement was written in English. To the extent that any translated version of this agreement conflicts with the English version, the English version prevails.
1. These terms
1.1. What these terms cover. These are the terms and conditions on which we supply products or services to you, whether these are services or any form of digital content for the purposes of using MKT tokens.
1.2. What these terms do not cover. These terms and conditions do not cover:
1.2.1. MKT tokens themselves or their use other than in connection with the Services and Digital Content; or
1.2.2. Your use of MarketCash’s website (including the services made available through it).
1.3. Why you should read them. Please read these terms carefully before you use our products, Services or Digital Content. These terms tell you who we are, how we will provide products, Services or Digital Content to you, how you and we may change or end the contract and other important information.
2. Information about MKT
2.1. What is MKT? MarketCash has created a cryptocurrency called “MKT”:
2.1.1. MKT is a type of cryptoasset, a cryptographically stored representation of value which uses distributed ledger technology and which can be transferred, stored or traded electronically.
2.1.2. More specifically, MKT is an exchange token: it is not issued or backed by any central authority and is intended to function as method of payment.
2.1.3. MKT tokens do not provide their holders with particular interests in any business, nor do they provide rights such as asset ownership, repayment of a specific sum of money or entitlement to a share in future profits.
2.1.4. Other than insofar as they can be used as a means of exchange, MKT tokens are not redeemable for access to any specific goods or services.
2.1.5. MKT tokens do not represent tangible or physical assets that exist outside of the Waves blockchain.
3. By using the services or digital content you accept these terms
3.1. By using the Services or Digital Content, you confirm that you accept these terms and that you agree to comply with them. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not use the Services or Digital Content.
3.2. You accept and acknowledge that where we make additional functionality available to you through the App (for example the purchase of third party goods, services or digital content) additional terms and/or charges shall also apply, including terms required by third party providers. It is a condition of your use of such functionality that you read and accept such third party terms and/or charges and you acknowledge that we have no liability to you in respect of such third party goods, services or digital content which are only made available to you through the App for convenience.
4. Anti money-laundering and terrorist financing
4.1. Pursuant to our obligations under global anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing legislation, we are required to undertake due diligence, source of funds and “know your client” checks on users of the Services and Digital Content. We may use third party providers to assist us with these due diligence checks.
4.2. We will employ various levels of due diligence as may be required by legislation in force from time to time and based on the jurisdiction in which you access the Services and Digital Content and on the value of MKT you propose to hold or transfer.
4.3 If you wish to access certain functionality within the Services, Digital Content, we may require additional disclosures of information from you. The information we request may include personal information, including, but not limited to, your name, postal address, e-mail address, telephone number, date of birth, country of origin, tax identification number, government issues identification number, and bank account information and in certain circumstances proof of source of funds.
4.4. You must comply with our due diligence requirements in order to continue using the Services and Digital Content. If you fail to do so we may withdraw or suspend your right to use the Services or Digital Content without further liability to you.
5. High risk countries
If it appears that you are accessing or attempting to access the Services and Digital Content from a country which is, from time to time, designated as a “high-risk third country” by the European Commission or as a “high risk and other monitored jurisdiction” by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), we may temporarily or permanently withdraw your right to use the Services and Digital Content (or any part of them) without liability to you.
6. MKT and blockchain technology
6.1. MKT is a type of cryptoasset, more particularly described in clause 2.1 above.
6.2. The services we provide operate using distributed ledger technology, also known as ‘blockchain’.
6.3. Waves’s blockchain is a public ledger of transactions and when you transact with third parties using MKT, users of the Waves blockchain independently verify the validity of your transactions. In doing so the data relating to your transactions, including your public key, is shared with each user of the Waves blockchain.
6.4. We do not control the ongoing state of Waves’s blockchain as this is determined by the transactions made between users. Although we facilitate the processing of these transactions through the use of our Services and Digital Content, we are in no way a party to them.
6.5. As a company, we do not sell, send or receive MKT on behalf of users. Our services facilitate the sending and receiving of MKT between users. We are not responsible (and shall have no liability to you) for issues including (but not limited to) slow network speeds and technical errors within the operation of the Waves blockchain.
7. MKT transactions
7.1. Due to the nature of Waves blockchain, MKT transactions cannot be reversed or cancelled. We will not be responsible for any loss or damage suffered by you for transactions executed by you or any third party including (but not limited to):
7.1.1. sending MKT to the incorrect recipient;
7.1.2. sending a recipient the incorrect amount of MKT in respect of any transaction;
7.1.3. the time take to transmit or receive MKT (because the speed and operation of the network is outside of our control); or
7.1.4. any other error.
7.2. Where you avail yourself of additional functionality as set out in 3.2 above, for example the purchase of third party goods, services or digital content, you irrevocably instruct us to send and receive transfers of MKT through your online wallet on your behalf for the purposes of meeting your obligations under those transactions and you acknowledge and accept that we have no liability to you in respect of such transactions and that you are primarily responsible for any additional terms and/or charges imposed by such third party providers of goods, services or digital content and you shall hold us harmless in respect of the same.
8. Transfer (TX) fees
8.1. Please note that we may apply the TX Fees set out below to any transfer of MKT, regardless of whether:
8.1.1. the wallet was developed by us;
8.1.2. whether the wallet is an online wallet or any other type of wallet; or
8.1.3. whether the sending and receiving wallets are controlled by the same or different users.
8.2. Each transfer of MKT is subject to a TX Fee in Waves, which is a minimum of 0.001 Waves. The TX Fee is charged by Waves blockchain.
8.3. In our app (“MarketChat”) a fee will be charged in MKT to cover the transaction cost on the Waves blockchain.
9. Minimum withdrawal limit
Although some cryptocurrency exchanges may support trading prices up to 6 decimal places, our Services and Digital Content do not permit you to withdraw or transfer less than 0.01 MKT in any single transaction. This is subject also to the TX Fee set out in clause 8.
10. In-App Wallet
10.1. Through our app (“MarketChat”) you can receive or send MKT to any Waves wallet address, in addition you can also transfer to any in-app user via chat. These transactions are subject to TX Fee in clause 8.

10.2.1. buy MKT using credit card; and
10.2.2. use MKT to exchange products or services with other users;
10.3 For security and technical operational purposes, we may in exceptional circumstances need to change your wallet Address. Where we need to do so we will provide you with reasonable notice and you agree to provide us with all reasonable information and assistance in making such changes.
11. Trading considerations
11.1 MKT is traded on cryptocurrency exchanges worldwide. We do not trade MKT; we provide facilities by which MKT may be sent and received as between users.
11.2. There are many factors that you should consider before trading MKT, for example the prospects of price fluctuation, risk to your capital and market illiquidity. Past performance is not an indication of future performance and the value of MKT may go down as well as up.
11.3. Your use of MKT on a cryptocurrency exchange will be subject to that exchange’s terms of service, which is out of our control.
11.4. Although MKT is listed on several cryptocurrency exchanges, we are in no way affiliated with any exchange.
