📄Terms and Conditions

Dated March 3, 2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to JESTER. By accessing, using our platform, or purchasing Tokens, including the trading algorithm (the “Algorithm”), you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions (the "Terms"). These Terms govern your use of the JESTER services and the associated token ("Token").

By purchasing Tokens or accessing any part of the platform, you acknowledge and agree that you are bound by these Terms, including any future modifications that may be made. It is your responsibility to review these Terms regularly, as continued use of the platform following any changes constitutes your acceptance of those changes.

Please read these Terms carefully before using our platform or purchasing Tokens.

1.2. Definitions

For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

• "Algorithm": Refers to the proprietary trading algorithm developed by "Scientio", which is licensed to JESTER GLOBAL for use within the JESTER ecosystem. The Algorithm is designed to facilitate automated trading decisions based on pre-set parameters and market data.

• "Tools": Collectively refers to all functionalities provided by JESTER, including but not limited to trading signals, auto-trader, indicators, and any other software tools or features that assist users in making trading decisions or executing trades.

• "Token": Refers to the utility token issued by JESTER that provides users with access to the platform’s services, including the Algorithm and Tools. The Token serves as a means of exchange within the platform and does not confer any ownership rights in JESTER GLOBAL or its assets.

• "Company": Refers to JESTER GLOBAL, the entity responsible for managing the JESTER platform, administering the licensing of the Algorithm, and overseeing the overall operation of the ecosystem.

• "Owner": Refers to "Scientio", the individual or entity that holds exclusive intellectual property rights to the Algorithm and grants a license to the Company for its use within the platform.

• "Treasury": Refers to the reserve of funds collected by JESTER from transaction taxes, performance fees, and other revenue streams, which are used for the continued development, maintenance, and operation of the platform.

• "Bonding Curve": Refers to the mathematical model used by JESTER to determine the number of Tokens required for different levels of access to the Algorithm and Tools. The bonding curve adjusts these requirements based on demand within the ecosystem.

2. Ownership and Licensing

The Algorithm is the exclusive intellectual property of "Scientio" (an anonymous psuedonym, the "Owner"). The Owner retains full ownership of all rights, titles, and interests in the Algorithm. JESTER GLOBAL (the "Company") has been granted a license by the Owner to use the Algorithm within the JESTER ecosystem. The Company does not own the Algorithm but has been licensed to use it under specific terms, as outlined in a formal licensing agreement between the Owner and the Company.

All modifications or improvements to the core Algorithm, including those based on user feedback or suggestions from the Company, are and will remain the exclusive intellectual property of the Owner. The Company otherwise retains full ownership of its brand and related intellectual property.

The Company is not authorized to sub-license, transfer, or otherwise grant any rights to the Algorithm to third parties without the prior written consent of the Owner, which may be granted or denied at the sole discretion of the Owner.

By purchasing Tokens, you acknowledge that the Algorithm remains the personal intellectual property of “Scientio” and that you acquire no ownership rights in the Algorithm, the Company, or any of its assets.

3. Token Usage

The Token is a utility token designed solely to access the services provided by JESTER, including the Algorithm. By purchasing Tokens, you agree that they are not intended for investment purposes and have no inherent value outside of the JESTER ecosystem. The Token serves as a means of exchange within the platform, enabling you to use the Algorithm.

3.1. Transaction Tax

A 2% tax is applied to every Token transaction within the JESTER ecosystem, including transfers and sales on decentralized exchanges like Uniswap. This transaction tax is automatically deducted at the time of the transaction and directed to the project’s treasury, which is owned and controlled by the Company. These funds are used for the continued development and maintenance of the platform.

Example: If you transfer or sell 100 Tokens on a decentralized exchange, a 2% transaction tax means that 2 Tokens will be deducted and transferred to the treasury, leaving 98 Tokens for the recipient or proceeds from the sale.

3.2. Performance Fee

A performance fee may be incurred based on your usage of the Algorithm. This fee is assessed on the profits generated by the Algorithm in connected accounts and is split between the project’s treasury and token buybacks.

Calculation Example:

• Profit Generated: $1,000

• Performance Fee Rate: 5%

• Fee Amount: $1,000 x 5% = $50

• Fee Split: The $50 fee is allocated based on the buyback strategy (see documentation).

3.3. Performance Fee Compliance

The Algorithm is provided for your use, and performance fees are assessed based on the connected accounts that interact with the platform. The Company tracks the performance of these accounts to calculate the applicable fees. Any attempts to avoid or bypass the payment of performance fees, including but not limited to setting up a separate auto-trading account, copy trading, or replicating trades made by the Algorithm on other accounts, are strictly prohibited.

Exception: Trades that are manually executed by users based on signals provided by the platform do not fall under the purview of performance fees. Users are free to use the signals for manual trading without incurring performance fees, as these trades are not directly executed by the Algorithm.

Prohibition Against Signal Skimming: Skimming signal calls from the platform to use in your own trading strategies or on external platforms like TradingView (TV) without the explicit permission of the Company is strictly prohibited. Unauthorized use of signals in this manner is considered a violation of these Terms and may result in the immediate termination of your access to the platform and Algorithm, as well as potential legal action.

Licensing for Signal Skimming and Automation: If you wish to use signals for your own trading strategies, automate your own trades using external platforms such as TradingView, or otherwise integrate the platform’s signals into your own systems, you must contact the Owner to obtain the necessary licensing. Licensing terms and conditions will be determined by the Owner and may involve additional fees or requirements.

If you are found to be engaging in any prohibited activities or if you successfully circumvent the performance fees, this may result in the immediate termination of your access to the platform and Algorithm. Additionally, the Company reserves the right to pursue legal action to recover any unpaid fees, including associated damages and legal costs.

4. Treasury Ownership and Licensing Obligations

The treasury wallet is fully owned and controlled by the Company. The treasury’s funds are allocated towards staffing, project expenses, development, marketing, and other activities as deemed necessary by the Company. A portion of the treasury’s funds shall be allocated to pay the Owner a licensing fee for the use of the Algorithm, as stipulated in the licensing agreement. This licensing fee is a continuous obligation of the Company and must be paid in accordance with the terms agreed upon with the Owner.

The Company acknowledges that any failure to make timely licensing payments could result in limitations or termination of the Company's rights to use the Algorithm, as determined by the Owner. You, as a Token holder, understand and agree that you do not have any ownership or control over the treasury or its assets.

5. Access to the Algorithm and Tools

By purchasing Tokens, you are granted the ability to access and use the Algorithm, including any associated tools such as signals, auto-trader, indicators, and other functionalities (collectively, the “Tools”), in accordance with these Terms. Access to the Algorithm and Tools is by tiered and based on the number of Tokens held by a user or by subscription, or by subscription. The exact number of Tokens required for access is determined by a bonding curve model that assigns varying levels of access based on the amount of Tokens held.

5.1 Tiered Access Levels

• Tier 1 Access: Users who hold the minimum amount of Tokens specified by the bonding curve will receive basic access to the Algorithm and its associated Tools.

• Tier 2 Access: Users who hold a higher amount of Tokens specified by the bonding curve will receive enhanced access to the Algorithm and its associated Tools.

• Tier 3 Access: Users who hold the maximum amount of Tokens specified by the bonding curve will receive premium access to the full functionality of the Algorithm and its associated Tools.

The bonding curve may adjust the required amount of Tokens for each tier as demand fluctuates within the ecosystem. The Company reserves the right to modify the bonding curve model, Token requirements, or tier access levels at any time, with or without notice.

5.2 Preservation of Algorithm Efficiency

The Company recognizes that preserving the efficiency and competitive edge of the Algorithm is of paramount importance. Therefore, the Company reserves the right to limit, restrict, or discontinue access to the Algorithm and its associated Tools at any time, with or without notice, if it is determined that the Algorithm’s performance or efficiency is being compromised due to overexposure or other factors. This includes the right to close public access to the Algorithm and Tools to ensure their continued effectiveness.

Additionally, the Owner reserves the right to limit, restrict, or terminate the Company’s use of the Algorithm under the licensing agreement if the Owner determines that the Algorithm’s performance or efficiency is being compromised or otherwise negatively affected by its use within the JESTER ecosystem. This authority may be exercised at the Owner's sole discretion.

5.3 Use of Tools: Signals, Auto-Trader, and Indicators

By using the signals, auto-trader, indicators, or any other Tools provided as part of the Algorithm, you agree to comply with all terms and conditions set forth herein.

The Company does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or effectiveness of any Tools provided.

5.3.1 Risk Acknowledgment

You acknowledge and agree that the use of the Tools involves significant risk. The Tools do not provide any guarantee of profit and may result in substantial losses, including the complete loss of your invested capital. You are solely responsible for your use of the Tools and the outcomes of your trading activities. The Company shall not be liable for any losses incurred as a result of using the Tools.

5.3.2 Indicator Usage

The indicator provided by the Company is intended solely as an aid for manual trading and market analysis. Users may use the indicator to inform their trading decisions, but it is not designed or intended for automation. If you wish to automate trading activities using the indicator, you must secure appropriate licensing from the Owner. Unauthorized automation of trades based on the indicator is strictly prohibited.

5.3.3 Auto-Trader

The auto-trader tool is an automated system that executes trades on your behalf based on your chosen algorithms or strategies. By enabling the auto-trader, you authorize the platform to execute trades according to your chosen settings. You understand and accept that automated trading carries inherent risks, including but not limited to execution errors, software glitches, and unexpected market conditions. The Company is not responsible for monitoring or adjusting trades initiated by the auto-trader.

5.3.4 Signals and Indicators

Signals and indicators are provided for informational purposes only. While the Company may provide these Tools to assist in trading decisions, they are not financial advice, and the Company makes no representations regarding their reliability or accuracy. You must conduct your own analysis and due diligence before making any trading decisions based on these Tools.

5.3.5 Prohibited Activities

You agree not to use the Tools in any manner that could harm the platform’s operations, including but not limited to:

• 5.3.5.1 Reverse Engineering: Attempting to decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code or underlying components of the Tools.

6. Risk Disclosure and Disclaimer

6.1. Risk of Trading

Trading in financial markets, including the use of automated trading algorithms, involves significant risk. By using the Algorithm and the platform, you acknowledge and accept that:

• Market Volatility: Financial markets can be highly volatile, with asset prices fluctuating rapidly and unpredictably. This volatility can result in significant gains, but also substantial losses. Automated trading tools, including the Algorithm, are programmed based on historical data and market conditions, which may not predict future market behavior. As a result, the Algorithm may execute trades that lead to significant financial losses, possibly exceeding the amount of your initial investment.

• Execution Risks: Automated trading systems, including the Algorithm, execute trades based on predefined rules and parameters. While this can eliminate human error, it also means that the Algorithm may not adapt quickly to sudden market changes, technical issues, or errors in market data. This could result in trades being executed at less favorable prices or in market conditions where human intervention might have avoided a loss.

• Liquidity Risks: Automated trading may involve the trading of assets in markets that may have low liquidity. In such situations, large trades may impact market prices significantly, or it may be difficult to execute trades at the desired price or time. This can lead to unexpected losses or the inability to close positions at favorable prices.

• Leverage Risks: If the Algorithm or the platform offers leveraged trading options, users should be aware that leverage amplifies both potential gains and potential losses. Trading on margin or with leverage can lead to losses greater than the initial investment, and users are responsible for any deficit that may arise from such trading activities.

6.2. Indicator and Manual Trading Risks

• Manual Trading: The indicator provided by the Company is intended solely for manual trading and market analysis. Users should not assume that the indicator alone can guarantee profitable trades, as it is subject to the same risks as any other trading tool, including market volatility, technical inaccuracies, and unexpected market conditions.

• Unauthorized Automation: The indicator is not designed or intended for automation. If you choose to automate trades using the indicator, it is essential that you first secure proper licensing from the Company. Unauthorized automation not only violates these Terms but also exposes you to additional risks, including the lack of support, warranty, and potentially poor performance of automated trades under varying market conditions. The Company disclaims all liability for unauthorized use of the indicator in automated trading systems.

6.3. Specific Risks of Automated Trading Tools

• Algorithmic Bias: Automated trading algorithms, including the Algorithm provided by the platform, are created based on historical data, certain assumptions, and specific strategies. These strategies may not perform well under all market conditions, and the underlying assumptions may not hold true in the future. This could result in the Algorithm making suboptimal decisions or consistently underperforming in certain market environments.

• Technical Failures: The use of automated trading tools is dependent on the proper functioning of the software, servers, and network connections. Technical failures, such as software bugs, server outages, internet disconnections, or other unforeseen technical issues, could prevent the Algorithm from executing trades as intended. Such failures may result in missed opportunities, unintended trades, or significant financial losses.

• Market Gaps and Slippage: Automated trading tools execute trades based on real-time market data, but during periods of high volatility or after hours, market gaps can occur where asset prices change significantly between the time a trade is initiated and when it is executed. This can result in slippage, where trades are executed at prices significantly different from those expected, leading to unexpected losses.

• Risk of Over-Optimization: Automated trading strategies may be over-optimized for specific historical data, which can result in strategies that perform well in backtesting but poorly in live market conditions. Over-optimization can create a false sense of security about the potential profitability of a strategy, leading to higher-than-expected losses.

6.4. User Responsibility and Due Diligence

• Active Monitoring: While the Algorithm automates trading, users are responsible for actively monitoring their accounts and the performance of the Algorithm. The Company does not provide financial advice, and it is the user's responsibility to ensure that their trading activities align with their financial goals and risk tolerance.

• No Guarantee of Profit: The Company makes no representations or guarantees regarding the performance of the Algorithm, the indicator, or the profitability of trades executed through the platform. Users must be prepared for the possibility of losses, including substantial or total loss of their invested capital.

• Manual Overrides: In some cases, users may need to intervene manually to prevent or mitigate losses, especially in rapidly changing market conditions. The Algorithm does not replace the need for user judgment and decision-making in trading activities.

6.5. Prohibited Activities and Liability for Damages

You agree that you will not engage in any of the following activities:

• Reverse Engineering: You will not attempt to decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code or underlying components of the Algorithm, the indicator, or any part of the platform.

• Unauthorized Automation: You will not create, deploy, or use any unauthorized scripts, bots, or automated systems to interact with the platform, the Algorithm, or the indicator unless explicitly authorized in writing by the Company. Automation of trading activities based on the indicator without securing proper licensing from the Company is strictly prohibited.

• Signal Skimming: You will not use the platform’s signal calls in your own trading strategies or on external platforms without securing the necessary licensing from the Company. Unauthorized use of signals will result in the termination of access and potential legal action.

• Circumvention of Security or Usage Controls: You agree not to attempt to bypass, disable, or interfere with any security features, usage restrictions, or technological measures implemented on the platform, the Algorithm, or the indicator to prevent unauthorized use.

• Misuse of Platform: You will not use the platform for any illegal activities or in any way that violates applicable laws and regulations.

The Company takes the protection of its intellectual property seriously. Any violation of this section, including but not limited to reverse engineering, unauthorized use, or misuse of the Algorithm, indicator, or signals, will result in immediate termination of your access to the platform and the pursuit of damages. Legal action may be pursued to the fullest extent permitted by law.

6.6. Non-Custodial Relationship

The Company does not directly hold or manage any user funds. Users are responsible for the custody and management of their own funds. Performance fees generated by the Algorithm are handled through a smart contract, which users deposit into, and the Company withdraws funds as required. The Company does not have direct control or custody over user assets at any time.

6.7. No Financial Advice

The Company is not a financial advisor, and the Algorithm, indicator, and other Tools provided should not be construed as providing financial advice. You are solely responsible for your investment decisions, and you should consult with a qualified financial advisor if you have any doubts about using the Algorithm, indicator, or engaging in trading activities.

13. Refund and Token Buyback Policy

13.1. Refund Policy

The Company does not sell Tokens directly to users; instead, Tokens are acquired through exchanges, such as Uniswap, where they were initially dispersed at launch. As a result, all Token purchases are final, and the Company does not offer refunds under any circumstances. This policy is in place because the Company has no control over transactions conducted on decentralized exchanges and does not receive the proceeds from such sales.

Clarification: Since Token transactions occur on a decentralized exchange, users are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of their transactions, including the correct amount and address. Any issues related to Token purchases, such as accidental transfers or technical errors on the exchange, must be resolved directly through the decentralized exchange platform, as the Company is not involved in these transactions.

13.2. OTC Token Buybacks

The Company may, at its sole discretion, offer to purchase Tokens from users via an over-the-counter (OTC) transaction. Users acknowledge that the availability and terms of any OTC buybacks are determined solely by the Company and may not be offered at all times. The Company is under no obligation to repurchase Tokens. Users are also free to sell their Tokens on the open market in accordance with applicable laws and exchange policies.
