3. Nature of the Services; Regulatory Status

The Services provide access to a decentralized, non-custodial, on-chain software protocol that enables Users to interact directly with Smart Contracts deployed on public blockchain networks.

Prime Vaults does not operate as a bank, financial institution, payment service provider, capital markets intermediary, collective investment scheme, or investment adviser under the laws of Singapore.

Prime Vaults does not:

  • custody, hold, manage, or control User Digital Assets;

  • initiate transactions on behalf of Users;

  • access or control User wallets, private keys, or SmartAccounts.

All transactions are initiated solely by Users and executed by Smart Contracts.


4. No Fiduciary Relationship; No Advice

Nothing in these Terms or in the Services shall be construed as creating any fiduciary, agency, partnership, joint venture, or advisory relationship.

Prime Vaults does not provide financial, investment, legal, tax, or accounting advice. Nothing provided through the Services constitutes an offer, solicitation, or recommendation to acquire, dispose of, or invest in any Digital Asset or capital markets product within the meaning of the SFA.

All decisions made in connection with the Services are made solely by the User and at the User’s own risk.


5. Assumption of Risk

You expressly acknowledge and agree that your use of the Services involves substantial and inherent risks, including, without limitation:

  • Smart Contract vulnerabilities, exploits, or failures;

  • Blockchain network failures, congestion, forks, reorganizations, or censorship;

  • Oracle failures, inaccuracies, or manipulation;

  • Market volatility, liquidity risk, and loss of value.

You assume all risks associated with the use of the Services and Digital Assets, including the risk of partial or total loss.


6. Principal Protection Framework

Prime Vaults incorporates certain internal mechanisms intended to mitigate limited risks arising from Prime Vaults-approved internal strategies (the “Principal Protection Framework”).

You expressly acknowledge and agree that:

1

Not insurance

The Principal Protection Framework is not insurance.

No guarantee

Exclusions

5

Insufficiency

Such mechanisms may be insufficient under extreme or unforeseen circumstances.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Principal Protection Framework shall not be construed as a deposit, insurance arrangement, collective investment scheme, or capital markets product under the laws of Singapore.


7. Third-Party Protocols and External Systems

The Services may interact with or rely upon third-party protocols, oracles, bridges, or infrastructure providers.

Prime Vaults makes no representations or warranties with respect to any third-party systems and shall not be liable for any loss arising from their failure, exploitation, insolvency, or malfunction.
