- If you lose access to your Cube Client Account and cannot recover it yourself, you may contact Cube.Exchange’s customer support to see if they can assist in its recovery, but you agree and acknowledge that: (i) Cube is not guaranteeing that it can recover any lost access to your Cube Client Account and (ii) any changes in or loss of Digital Assets in your MPC Vault related to the loss of your password or access to your Cube Client Account or unauthorized access to your account are your sole responsibility and neither Cube nor the Guardian Network is liable for such changes or loss.
- MPC Vault and Wallet Creation
- Once your Cube Client Account has been approved and created, you may initiate the creation of each of your MPC Vault through a distributed key share generation process among you, Cube and the Guardian Network. Each non-custodial MPC Wallet within your MPC Vault created by you places your Digital Assets in your care, custody and control.
- When your MPC Vault is created, a PDF document of your Key Share will be generated and provided to you. It is your responsibility to save your Key Share in a secure manner.
- The purpose of your Key Share is to allow you to request a withdrawal of assets directly with the Guardian Network ifCube.Exchange’s settlement layer has not processed a settlement for more than 48 hours. The Guardian Network would operate the withdrawal function in place of Cube.Exchange. This function is currently under design.
- You are sole owner of and fully responsible for all activity that occurs under your MPC Vault and MPC Wallets. Cube.Exchange, in its sole discretion, may refuse to open a Cube Client Account. As further described in Section 8c, Cube.Exchange, in its sole discretion, may also suspend or terminate the exercise of its Key Share related to any MPC Vault or Wallets, and/or suspend or terminate the trading of any Digital Assets from your MPC Vault or any of your MPC Wallets if it is unable to do so or if it identifies a sanction violation, illicit activity, or some other compliance-related issue.
- In order to complete an offer, bid, order, trade or transaction via the Services, you must first load Digital Assets to your MPC Wallet. You may be charged fees by the External Provider you use to transmit Digital Assets to or from your MPC Wallet. Cube is not responsible for any External Provider fees or for the management and security of any External Account. You are solely responsible for your use of any External Provider, and you agree to comply with all terms and conditions applicable to any External Provider. The timing associated with a load transaction will depend in part upon the performance of third parties responsible for maintaining the applicable External Provider, and Cube makes no guarantee regarding the amount of time it may take to load Digital Assets into your MPC Wallet.
- In some cases, the External Provider may reject your Digital Assets or may otherwise be unavailable to receive your Digital Assets. You agree that you will not hold Cube liable for any damages resulting from such rejected transactions.
- Before you are permitted to deposit any Digital Assets within your MPC Vault, you must successfully complete Cube’s know-your-customer (KYC)/anti-money laundering (AML) onboarding diligence and other processes, which may vary by jurisdiction.
- Orders, Trades, CubeNet Recordation and Net Settlement
- To place an order on Cube.Exchange, you first must authenticate yourself to Cube.Exchange by logging into your Cube Client Account. You then place the order via the Services on Cube.Exchange. The Digital Assets in your MPC Vault remain in your MPC Vault and are not placed with Cube.Exchange in order to place an order, match a transaction, or settle an order. Cube.Exchange does not touch your Digital Assets.
- When you submit a new order via the Services, you authorize Cube.Exchange to execute a transaction in accordance with such order on a spot basis and charge you any applicable Fees as set forth in our current Fee Schedule.
- You acknowledge and agree that: (a) Cube is not acting as your broker, intermediary, agent, or advisor or in any fiduciary capacity, (b) no communication or information provided to you by Cube shall be considered or construed as investment, tax, or any other form of advice, (c) any information provided by Cube to you is given strictly for educational purposes and designed to provide information about prices, ranges and volatility of Digital Assets, and (d) Cube does not market, promote or offer any product to you or any third party through its Services.
- If you select a market trade, Cube.Exchange will attempt, on a commercially reasonable basis, to execute the trade on or close to the prevailing market exchange rate on Cube.Exchange via the Services. You acknowledge and agree that the exchange rate information made available via our Services may differ from prevailing exchange rates made available via other sources outside of the Services.
- All prices on Cube.Exchange reflect the price applicable to the purchase or sale of Digital Assets in your order. All Digital Asset sales and purchases on Cube.Exchange are subject to availability. We reserve the right to cancel or discontinue any sale or purchase of any Digital Assets with or without notice.
- Once Cube.Exchange’s matching engine executes your order, the matched transaction will be recorded on CubeNet, and a confirmation will be electronically made available to you via the Services detailing the particulars of the trade. You acknowledge and agree that the failure of the Services to provide such confirmation shall not prejudice or invalidate the terms of such trade.
- All sales and purchases of Digital Assets via the Services are final. We do not accept any returns or provide refunds for your purchase of Digital Assets.
- Lost or Stolen Key
- If you lose your Key Share or your Key Share is stolen for your MPC Vault (the “Impacted Vault”), you can inform Cube.Exchange by contacting customer support. Cube.Exchange does not store your Key Share and cannot provide it to you if lost or stolen.
- If possible, Cube.Exchange will freeze the Impacted Vault by:
- refusing to exercise its Key Share for the Impacted Vault for any Net Settlements or Withdrawals; and
- publishing to the Guardian Network that the Impacted Vault exists so that they will also refuse to exercise the Guardian Network’s Key Share for the Impact Vault for any Net Settlements or Withdrawals.
- Cube.Exchange is currently working on a process that will permit you to recover your lost or stolen Key Share for your Impacted Vault. To do so, Cube.Exchange will require you to go through similar know-your-customer (KYC) identity verification processes that you did when creating your Cube Client Account. Assuming a positive verification, a new Key Share for you will be generated through action of the Guardians and Cube.Exchange together.
- You agree and acknowledge that in the event that any Digital Assets are transferred, stolen or otherwise missing from your Impacted Digital Vault, you are solely responsible for the loss of such Digital Assets.
- User Notice of Withdrawals from MPC Wallet
- You may activate a withdrawal from your MPC Vault by logging onto Cube.Exchange and sending Cube a notice indicating the amount of Digital Assets that you intend to withdraw from your MPC Vault. After Cube reviews your unmatched and matched but unsettled order amounts on Cube.Exchange, if your MPC Vault holds sufficient Digital Assets to cover the notified withdrawal amount, Cube.Exchange will exercise its Key Share to verify the withdrawal amount and your withdrawal will proceed. During the current early access period of Cube.Exchange, a withdrawal notice may take up to 24 hours.
- Cube.Exchange is currently working on a process that will permit you to send a notice of your intent to withdraw assets from your MPC Vault using your Key Share to the Guardian Network if Cube.Exchange’s settlement layer has not processed a net settlement for more than 48 hours. In that case, the Guardian Network would operate Cube function described in Section 8a above in place of Cube.
- Notwithstanding the preceding clauses or any other provision within these Terms, Cube reserves the right to take actions in the event of identified illicit activity associated with your Cube Client Account. These illicit activities may include but are not limited to sanctions violations, exposure to high-risk wallets, or involvement with wallets previously flagged for terrorist financing. Additionally, Cube may take action when it deems an activity to be beyond its acceptable risk tolerance level. Depending upon the illicit activty involved, Cube’s actions in response may include, among other things, not permitting the user to place new orders on Cube.Exchange, suspending or cancelling the user’s Cube Client Account, a report to relevant authorities, and/or not responding to a user’s notification of withdraw, which would result in the user’s Digital Assets being locked in its MPC Vault until further resolution. If a user’s MPC Vault is locked, the Guardian Network also will abstain from responding to a a user’s notification of withdraw vuntil further resolution.

- You may sustain a total loss of the Digital Assets in your MPC Vault.
- Under certain market conditions, you may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a position. This can occur, for example, when the market reaches a daily price fluctuation limit or there is insufficient liquidity in the market.
- Placing contingent orders, such as “stop-loss” or “stop-limit” orders, will not necessarily limit your losses to the intended amounts, since market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders.
