8. Assumption of Risk Relating to Tokens and Use of the Site.
You assume any and all risk arising out of your use of the Site (including the Marketplace). Those risks may include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Token Market Risk. Market prices for Tokens can be volatile and highly unpredictable. Whether the future market price for a Token will move up or down or even sustain a market value is a speculation and unknowable. The Site makes no representations or warranties about the future market price of any Token or whether a Token will always be tradable on the Marketplace. In agreeing to the Terms, and in accessing the Site, you disclaim any reliance on Company regarding the future market price or tradability of any Token. Notwithstanding anything contained in any of the Terms to the contrary, any Token is subject to delisting and/or takedown, without or without prior notice, in the sole discretion of the Site.
- Liquidity Risk. Markets for Tokens may be illiquid. There is no guarantee that the market for any Token will be active and liquid or permit you to liquidate Tokens when desired or at favorable prices.
- Legal Risk. Although Tokens are intended to be collectables, not investments, the legality of owning Tokens, buying, selling or trading of them may not be clear and may vary under the laws of different jurisdictions throughout the world. The Company is not registered as a broker-dealer or an investment adviser in the United States or anywhere else in the world. Whether and on what basis a Token may constitute property, an asset, a security or a right varies from one jurisdiction to another. You are responsible for knowing and understanding the laws applicable to you or your property, rights or assets and taxes on the Tokens you trade.
- Risks of Prepayment. The fiat and cryptocurrency prepaid into your Marketplace Account for prepayment purposes in order to be eligible to bid on certain Marketplace auctions will be considered sales proceeds of the Company and its affiliates at the time of prepayment. The Company and its affiliates are permitted to use any fiat and cryptocurrency received for their own benefit, investment, and use while accounting for them in your Account for purpose of bidding or providing full refund to you in the original fiat or cryptocurrency used, less any 3rd party processing fees, if you do not win a bid. Prepayment of fiat or cryptocurrency exposes your fiat and cryptocurrency to risks of total loss from, among others things, security breaches from cyber-attacks that hack and steal fiat or cryptocurrency, electronic or technological failures that impede or prevent market access and market performance, and any insolvency, bankruptcy, or material financial losses of or incurred by the Company or any of its affiliates.
- Risk of Account Freeze. The Company may freeze your Marketplace Account, including any Tokens, in the event that you are believed to be engaged in suspicious activity or to be in breach of any of the Terms. If your Marketplace Account is frozen, you will not be able to make Acquisitions or Transfers to or from your Account. This may result in the closure of your open orders.
- Market Default Risk. The Company operates and administers the Site (including the Marketplace) and acts as Agent for Transfer on the Marketplace of Acquired Tokens. There is always a risk that one or more market participants will renege, default, or otherwise fail to honor their financial obligations or will be unwilling or unable to abide by the terms of their agreements.
- Conflicts of Interest. The Company charges fees for trading and therefore benefits from secondary trading activity regardless of whether the trading is profitable to you. The Company has no duty to act on your behalf and undertakes no responsibility to do so.
- Regulatory Framework. The current regulatory framework governing digital tokens, crypto-currencies and/or blockchain technologies is nascent and uncertain, and new regulations or policies may materially adversely affect the potential value of your Acquired Token(s).
- Total Risk of Loss. You are able to bear a total loss in the value of your Acquired Tokens.

Each party will have the right to use legal counsel in connection with arbitration at its own expense. The parties shall select a single neutral arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of the Terms, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of the Terms is void or voidable. You or Company may elect to appear at the arbitration by phone or, if you and Company both agree, to conduct it online, in lieu of appearing live. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be in writing and provide a statement of the essential findings and conclusions, shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

The Company will also be responsible for paying all other arbitration costs arising in connection with the arbitration, other than costs incurred by you for legal counsel, travel and other out-of-pocket costs and expenses not constituting fees or amounts payable to JAMS. You will not be required to pay fees and costs incurred by the Company if you do not prevail in arbitration. The Company will also pay JAMS to reimburse you for any portion of the $250 filing fee that is more than what you would otherwise have to pay to file suit in a court of law.
The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.
- Class Action and Class Arbitration Waiver. You and the Company each further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in Company’s respective individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and you and the Company each expressly waive Company’s respective right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration cannot proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above in Section 11(b) shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
- Exception - Small Claims Court Claims. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.
- Exception – California Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) Action. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a court of law for a claim arising under California’s Private Attorneys General Act.
- 30 Day Right to Opt-Out. You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth in Sections 11(b) and 11 (c ) by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out by emailing the Company at support@artchivecoins.com. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of registering to use the Site (including the Marketplace), otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of those sections.

- Exclusive Venue for Litigation. To the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 11(b) do not apply, of if you want to pursue any legal remedies to which you would otherwise be entitled but that are not available to you pursuant to this Section 11, the parties agree that any litigation between them (including, but not limited to small claims court cases) shall be filed exclusively in state or federal courts located in Miami-Dade, Florida (except for small claims court actions which may be brought in the county where you reside). The parties expressly consent to exclusive jurisdiction in Miami-Dade, Florida for any litigation other than small claims court actions. In the event of litigation relating to the Terms or the Marketplace, the parties agree to waive, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to a jury trial.
