⚠️ LEGALLY BINDING AGREEMENT - MANDATORY ARBITRATION - CLASS ACTION WAIVER
WARNING: ACCEPTANCE REQUIRED TO USE PLATFORM
THESE TERMS REQUIRE YOUR AFFIRMATIVE ACCEPTANCE. AS OF THE CLICKWRAP DATE, YOU MUST CLICK "I AGREE" OR A SIMILAR BUTTON TO ACCESS OR USE THE FLIQ PLATFORM. BY CLICKING "I AGREE" OR BY USING THE PLATFORM, YOU ENTER INTO A LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT WITH ETHOSX, INC.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE LEGALLY BOUND BY ALL OF THESE TERMS, DO NOT CLICK "I AGREE" AND DO NOT USE THE PLATFORM. YOU CANNOT ACCESS OR USE THE PLATFORM WITHOUT ACCEPTING THESE TERMS.
NOTICE REGARDING PRIOR USE OF PLATFORM
For Users Who Accessed the Platform Before the Clickwrap Date:
If you used the Platform before the clickwrap requirement was implemented on the Clickwrap Date, your prior use was governed by the browsewrap version of these Terms (Version 1.0), which became binding through your use of the Platform. By clicking "I AGREE" to these updated Terms or by continuing to use the Platform after the Clickwrap Date, you:
- Reaffirm your acceptance of these Terms as they applied to your past Platform activities
- Acknowledge that these Terms governed all your prior use of the Platform
- Accept these updated Terms (Version 1.1) for all future Platform use
- Confirm that the transition from browsewrap to clickwrap does not affect the binding nature of the Terms on your past activities
For Restricted Mainnet Users (Before August 15, 2025):
If you participated in the restricted mainnet access program (Level 5 XP testnet participants) prior to August 15, 2025, your continued use of the Platform and acceptance of these Terms constitutes acceptance for all past and future Platform activities. These Terms supersede any prior understandings or agreements regarding your restricted mainnet access.
THESE TERMS CONSTITUTE A LEGAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND ETHOSX, INC., A DELAWARE CORPORATION ("ETHOSX," "COMPANY," "WE," "US," OR "OUR").
1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
1.1 Affirmative Acceptance Required (Effective as of the Clickwrap Date)
As of the Clickwrap Date, access to and use of the Platform requires your affirmative acceptance of these Terms through one of the following methods:
- Initial Access: Clicking "I Agree," "Accept," or similar button when prompted
- API Access: Including acceptance parameters in API calls as documented
- Smart Contract Interaction: Executing transactions that include acceptance confirmation
- Continued Use After Notice: For existing users, continuing to use the Platform after being presented with these updated Terms
Your affirmative acceptance creates a legally binding agreement. You may not access or use the Platform without accepting these Terms.
1.2 Transition from Browsewrap to Clickwrap
This Version 1.1 implements mandatory clickwrap acceptance. The transition works as follows:
- Historical Coverage: All Platform use prior to the Clickwrap Date remains governed by Terms Version 1.0 (browsewrap), which became binding through use alone
- Retroactive Confirmation: By accepting these Terms (Version 1.1), you confirm and ratify that:
- Version 1.0 of these Terms governed all your prior Platform use
- Your prior use of the Platform constituted acceptance of Version 1.0
- All provisions of these Terms apply to your historical Platform activities
- You waive any claim that prior versions of these Terms were not binding
- No Grandfathering: There is no "grandfathered" access. All users must accept these Terms to continue using the Platform after the Clickwrap Date
- Continuity of Terms: The substantive provisions of these Terms remain materially unchanged from Version 1.0. The primary change is the acceptance mechanism
1.3 Evidence of Acceptance
EthosX maintains records of your acceptance, including:
- Wallet address at time of acceptance
- Timestamp of acceptance
- Version of Terms accepted
For technical reasons, you may be required to accept these Terms separately when first accessing the mainnet Platform (fliq.one) and testnet Platform (testnet.fliq.one). Each acceptance confirms your agreement to the same Terms governing both environments. These records serve as conclusive evidence of your acceptance and may be used in any dispute regarding the formation or validity of this agreement.
1.4 Legal Capacity and Representations
By accepting these Terms, you represent, warrant, and covenant that:
- You are at least 18 years of age or the age of majority in your jurisdiction (whichever is greater)
- You have full legal capacity, right, and authority to enter into these Terms
- Your acceptance and use will not violate any other agreement to which you are bound
- If acting for an entity, you have full authority to bind that entity to these Terms
- You understand that your acceptance creates a binding legal contract
- You have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms
1.5 Modification of Terms
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time by posting revised Terms on the Platform with an updated "Last Updated" date.
For material changes, we will:
- Require re-acceptance through clicking "I Agree" or similar
- Provide notice through the Platform interface
- Allow you to review changes before accepting
For non-material changes, your continued use after posting constitutes acceptance.
If you do not agree to any modification, you must not accept the modified Terms and must cease all use of the Platform. Past accepted versions continue to govern activities that occurred under those versions.
1.6 Transition Periods Summary
Three distinct periods of Platform operation:
- Restricted Mainnet Period (Before August 15, 2025): Limited access for Level 5 XP testnet users
- Browsewrap Period (August 15, 2025 to the Clickwrap Date): Version 1.0 Terms, acceptance through use
- Clickwrap Period (the Clickwrap Date forward): Version 1.1 Terms, affirmative acceptance required
By accepting these Terms, you acknowledge that:
- These Terms govern all three periods
- Your acceptance covers past, present, and future Platform use
- No prior agreement or understanding supersedes these Terms
