SYNX — Bearer Token Declaration & User Sovereignty Agreement

Last Updated: March 1, 2026  |  Effective Immediately Upon Download, Installation, or Use

Article I — Bearer Instrument Recognition

You acknowledge and agree that every SYNX token held in your Wallet constitutes a bearer instrument under common law principles, the Uniform Commercial Code §3-109 (to the extent applicable), and international private law. Possession of the cryptographic private keys—specifically, your 25-word BIP-39 seed phrase and the derived SPHINCS+ signing keys—constitutes absolute, irrevocable, and unconditional ownership and control of all SYNX tokens associated with those keys.

No intermediary, platform operator, protocol contributor, software developer, node operator, miner, government entity, regulatory body, court of law, law enforcement agency, intelligence service, or any third party whatsoever has any legal claim, equitable interest, possessory right, lien, encumbrance, or security interest in your SYNX—unless and until you voluntarily and intentionally transfer the private keys or execute a signed transaction directing the transfer of tokens.

The Wallet is self-custodial software. The SynergyX project does not hold, manage, escrow, or have access to your private keys at any time. No server, no database, no backup system, and no recovery mechanism exists on our side. Your keys never leave your device. Period.

Your keys. Your coins. Your rules.

Article II — User Sovereignty

You are not a “user” in the traditional, subordinate sense of the word. You are the sovereign bearer of your wallet. The moment you generated your seed phrase, you became the sole custodian of a cryptographic vault that no entity on Earth can open without your consent.

You have elected to use SynergyX because you understand what the majority of market participants do not: centralized custody is a single point of failure dressed up as convenience. Know-Your-Customer (“KYC”) regimes are surveillance infrastructure masquerading as compliance. Third-party custody is the voluntary surrender of property rights to entities that have demonstrated, repeatedly and publicly, that they cannot be trusted to safeguard what they hold.

By using the SynergyX Protocol, you affirm that you have made a deliberate, informed, and rational decision to reject intermediation, reject custodial dependency, and accept the full spectrum of responsibility that accompanies true ownership. You understand that this choice demands competence—technical competence, operational security discipline, and the willingness to bear consequences without recourse to a support desk.

Welcome to sovereignty. It is not comfortable. It is correct.

Article III — Consent to the Synergy Sea Protocol

By using the Wallet, you also consent to and are bound by the rules and mechanics of the Synergy Sea Protocol—the decentralized exchange, escrow, and peer-to-peer marketplace layer built into the SynergyX ecosystem. The Synergy Sea Protocol operates autonomously on-chain. No human operator manages, arbitrates, or intervenes in its execution.

When you list, bid, escrow, or settle a transaction through Synergy Sea, you are interacting directly with smart contract logic and peer-to-peer encrypted channels. The SynergyX project provides the software; you provide the judgment. If you send funds to the wrong address, approve a malicious listing, or fail to verify a counterparty, the Protocol will not rescue you. It cannot. It was designed that way on purpose.

All liability for transactions executed through the Synergy Sea Protocol rests solely and exclusively with the participating parties. You hold your own keys. You sign your own transactions. You bear your own consequences.

Article IV — Indemnification & Waiver

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the SynergyX developers, protocol contributors, maintainers, node operators, miners, stakers, liquidity providers, and any and all affiliated natural persons or legal entities (collectively, “the SynergyX Parties”) from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to:

• Your use or misuse of the Wallet, the daemon, or any component of the SynergyX Protocol;
• Loss of funds due to user error, including but not limited to: forgotten or misrecorded seed phrases, incorrect recipient addresses, malformed transactions, or failure to verify transaction parameters before signing;
• Compromise of your private keys through phishing, malware, social engineering, physical theft, coercion, or any other vector;
• Connection to unauthorized, compromised, or malicious daemon instances;
• Losses incurred via the Synergy Sea Protocol, including counterparty default, non-delivery, misrepresentation, or fraud;
• Regulatory action, tax liability, or legal consequence arising from your use of the Protocol in any jurisdiction;
• Any violation of applicable local, national, or international law resulting from your actions on the network.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you irrevocably waive any and all rights to bring any claim, action, suit, or proceeding—whether in law, equity, administrative process, or any other forum—against the SynergyX Parties for any reason whatsoever arising from or related to the SynergyX Protocol. Any claim that cannot be waived shall be resolved exclusively through binding individual arbitration as set forth in Article VII. This waiver survives any termination, cessation, or discontinuation of your use of the software.

Article V — No Warranty — Caveat Emptor

THE SYNERGYX WALLET AND ALL ASSOCIATED SOFTWARE, PROTOCOLS, CRYPTOGRAPHIC LIBRARIES, DAEMON IMPLEMENTATIONS, AND NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE. THE SYNERGYX PARTIES EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION:

• WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY;
• WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE;
• WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT;
• WARRANTIES OF ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR COMPLETENESS;
• WARRANTIES THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE.

You assume all risk associated with the use of the SynergyX Protocol. Without limitation:

• If you lose your seed phrase, your SYNX is gone. Permanently. Irreversibly. There is no recovery mechanism, no customer support, no backdoor, and no appeal process.
• If you sign a malicious transaction, your SYNX is gone.
• If you connect to a spoofed daemon, your SYNX is gone.
• If a future cryptographic breakthrough defeats the algorithms in use, your SYNX may be at risk. We use NIST-standardized post-quantum primitives. That is the best the state of the art offers. It is not a guarantee.

You chose this path. You chose sovereignty. You chose risk. Caveat emptor.

Article VI — Limitation of Liability

IN NO EVENT SHALL THE SYNERGYX PARTIES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF TOKENS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, EVEN IF THE SYNERGYX PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE SYNERGYX PARTIES FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED ZERO DOLLARS ($0.00 USD). This is not a typographical error. The software is provided free of charge. You paid nothing. Our maximum liability reflects that.

Article VII — Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which the user resides, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Where multiple jurisdictions could apply, the substantive law of the user’s primary place of residence at the time the dispute arises shall control.

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement—including questions regarding its existence, validity, or termination—shall be resolved exclusively through binding private arbitration administered under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), conducted by a sole arbitrator, in a neutral jurisdiction selected by the prevailing party. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. No party shall seek relief in any court of general jurisdiction except to enforce an arbitral award.

Fee-Shifting: All costs and expenses of arbitration—including filing fees, arbitrator compensation, administrative costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees—shall be borne by the non-prevailing party. If a claim is found to be frivolous, vexatious, or brought in bad faith, the arbitrator may award treble costs and fees to the prevailing party at their discretion. This provision exists to deter speculative litigation and protect the closed-source commons.

Class Action Waiver: You expressly waive any right to participate in a class action, collective action, representative action, or consolidated proceeding of any kind. All claims must be brought in your individual capacity. If this waiver is found unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be void as to that claim, which shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction in the user’s jurisdiction of residence—but the class action waiver shall survive to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

The SynergyX Protocol is closed-source software (until block height 200K) executed on a decentralized peer-to-peer network—there is no corporate entity to subpoena, no server to seize, and no CEO to depose. To the extent any judicial proceeding is initiated notwithstanding this arbitration clause, venue shall lie exclusively in the courts of the user’s jurisdiction of residence.

Article VIII — Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by any court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions, which shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable while preserving the original intent of the parties.

Article IX — Entire Agreement

This Agreement, together with the Privacy Policy and the Disclaimer, constitutes the entire agreement between you and the SynergyX Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous communications, representations, and agreements, whether oral or written.
