We shall not be liable for, and you shall assume full liability for, the loss of Digital Assets held in or transferred from or to your Account, including, but not limited to, unauthorized access by a third party, loss or violation of your passwords, private keys or mistakes or errors derived from transferring from and to wrongs Digital Asset public keys or addresses, or derived from a mismatch between the distributed ledger network of the sender address or public key and the recipient address or public key (“ Blockchain Mismatch ”). In the case of a loss of Digital Assets due to Blockchain Mismatch occurs when transferring Digital Assets to your Account, Protocol Yield is not responsible for any losses or fortaking any actions to attempt to recover such Digital Assets. The User acknowledges, understands and agrees that Digital Assets lost due to a Blockchain Mismatch are not recoverable by Protocol Yield.

You may withdraw your available Digital Assets from your Account, provided that i) you execute a withdrawal request; and (ii) your withdrawal request exceeds the minimum withdrawal requirement as determined by Protocol Yield from time to time. We are not responsible, nor liable, for any distributed ledger network fees (also known as “gas”) that may apply to your withdrawal request or otherwise your transfer of Digital Assets from your Account. You acknowledge, understand and agree that we may not be able to immediately execute any withdrawal request. Although we shall use our best efforts to execute a withdrawal request within reasonable time, we make no commitment or guarantee with respect to the processing time to execute a withdrawal request. We are not liable for any damages incurred due to a delay in executing your withdrawal request.
8.4. Dormant Accounts and Unclaimed Property. In the event, there are Digital Assets in your Exchange Sub-Account, and we are unable to contact you and have no record of your access and/or use of the Services for a period of time, we may be required by law to report these Digital Assets as unclaimed property to the relevant Digital Asset Exchange or the relevant jurisdiction. If this occurs, we will attempt to locate you at the last known address in our records (if any), but if we are unable to locate you, we are not responsible for the actions taken by the Digital Asset Exchange, and we may need to report the Digital Assets to the applicable jurisdiction as unclaimed property. We reserve the right to deduct a dormancy fee or other administrative charges from such unclaimed Digital Assets.
8.5. Account History. A historical record of your transactions on your Account (” Account History “) may be available on your Account. You acknowledge, understand and agree that the Account History shall not be treated as a valuation of your Account. We use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the information contained in your Account History and any notices Protocol Yield provides to you are accurate and reliable; however, errors may occur from time to time and such errors do not impact the actual means and results of a given transaction. It is your sole responsibility to review your Account History and any notices. Any transaction listed in your Account History, or other communication including, but not limited to, orders, trades or other receipts sent to your email on record shall be deemed and treated as authorized, correct, approved, and confirmed by you unless we receive written notice to the contrary within three (3) business days from the date the transaction was listed or the communication was sent (as the case may be).
8.6. Forks. Digital Assets are based on an open source protocol. Anyone may clone the source code of the Digital Asset and develop a diverging blockchain protocol without prior permission by anyone else, also known as “Forks”. Forks can be made to any Digital Asset that may change the usability, functions, value or even name of a given Digital Asset. Such Forks may result in multiple versions of a Digital Asset and could lead to the dominance of one or more such versions of a Digital Asset (each a “ Dominant Digital Asset ”) and the partial or total abandonment or loss of value of any other versions of such Digital Asset (each a “ Non Dominant Digital Asset ”). Protocol Yield is under no obligation and may not be able to support a Fork of a Digital Asset that you hold through your Account, whether or not any resulting version of such forked Digital Asset is a Dominant Digital Asset or Non-Dominant Digital Asset or holds value at or following such Fork. Furthermore, as Protocol Yield does not hold custody of the Digital Assets, we cannot guarantee and assume no responsibility on whether a given Digital Asset Exchange supports a given Fork. If the Digital Asset Exchange does not support the Fork, you may not be able to receive the Digital Assets arising from such Fork. Forks of Digital Assets can be frequent, contentious and unpredictable, and therefore cannot be consistently supported on Protocol Yield. When trading or holding Digital Assets using your Account, you should operate under the assumption that Protocol Yield and/or the Digital Asset Exchanges will never support any Fork of such Digital Asset. If Protocol Yield or the Digital Asset Exchanges elect, in their sole discretion, to support a Fork of a Digital Asset, it may choose to do so by making a public announcement through the Website or the Digital Asset Exchanges respective sites, or otherwise notifying Users, and shall bear no liability for any real or potential losses that may result based on the decision to support such Fork or the timing of implementation of support. If Protocol Yield and/or the Digital Asset Exchanges, in their sole discretion, do not elect to support a Fork of a given Digital Asset, including the determination to support, continue to support, or cease to support any Dominant Digital Asset or Non Dominant Digital Asset, Protocol Yield assumes no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any losses or other issues that might arise from an unsupported Fork of a Digital Asset.

If Protocol Yield and/or the Digital Asset Exchanges, in their sole discretion, do not elect to support a Fork of a given Digital Asset, including the determination to support, continue to support, or cease to support any Dominant Digital Asset or Non Dominant Digital Asset, Protocol Yield assumes no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any losses or other issues that might arise from an unsupported Fork of a Digital Asset.
