Terms and Conditions

These Terms and Conditions constitute the User Agreement and Terms of Service (hereafter the “Terms & Conditions”) between Blockchain Game Partners dba Prosperity City Labs (referred to as “Prosperity City” or the “Site”) and any person, customer, or entity (referred as the “User”) utilizing the website, Prosperity City Blockchain and any products, features and services provided thereon (“Prosperity City Services”). These Terms & Conditions do not create any agency, partnership, or joint venture between Prosperity City and User. By signing up for an account through Prosperity City or any associated websites, APIs, or mobile applications, the User has read and consents to the Terms & Conditions. The User also agrees to Prosperity City’s Privacy Policy and Code of Conduct. These Terms & Conditions may be amended and updated from time to time at the sole discretion of Prosperity City. Revised versions will be considered effective as of the date and time posted on the Prosperity City Site.

  1. Prosperity City SERVICES.

Prosperity City is a decentralized distributed application on a blockchain network, using smart contracts (each a “Smart Contract”) to enable its Users to own, buy, sell, transfer, and share unique digital rewards that can be visualized on the Prosperity City site through the Prosperity City App.

1.1 Prosperity City Game Node. Prosperity City Game Node is a computer software and hardware system connected to Prosperity City. The Prosperity City Game Node supports blockchain video games by maintaining the cryptography and confirming transactions on the Prosperity City Blockchain through the Prosperity City App. Used herein, “Prosperity City Game Node” may represent either the node itself or a license the User obtains to run said node. The Prosperity City Game Nodes when combined form the “Prosperity City Game Node Network”.

1.2 Prosperity City Blockchain. The Prosperity City Blockchain allows each User to store items, characters, digital rewards, and other attributes on the Prosperity City Blockchain public ledger that allows for decentralized, immutable record of ownership. Each User owns the non-fungible token (an “NFT”) for any of the in-game items on the Prosperity City Blockchain. When a User purchases, earns, or receives any NFT or digital reward the Smart Contract process, the User owns completely and outright the NFT and/or digital reward. For the avoidance of doubt, the User acknowledges and agrees that while the User may own an NFT or digital reward, the underlying embedded intellectual property rights may be subject to certain licensing requirements, and Prosperity City can only convey such rights to Users so long as Prosperity City holds a valid license to the intellectual property. If such license terminates, Prosperity City, and by extension the User, may not have any rights to the underlying embedded intellectual property in the User's NFTs or Platform Assets, and the underlying embedded intellectual property may be changed or removed at Prosperity City's determination.

1.3 Prosperity City Reward. Each User of any game on the Prosperity City Blockchain or the Site or any game contained on the Site or associated websites, and associated Prosperity City Game Node, may be able to earn or receive the Prosperity City Reward. The “Prosperity City Reward” consists of a representation of Prosperity City token, or other game tokens and NFTs, reflected on the Prosperity City Blockchain and/or Prosperity City App and the Site, which may or may not be bridged to other blockchains (including but not limited to Ethereum) through a minting process solely at the option and action of the User. When referencing the NFTs on the platform themselves in the singular and not specifically as a part of the Prosperity City Reward, same shall be referred to herein as “Platform Asset.” The Prosperity City Reward is a digital reward and not a Security Token. The Prosperity City Reward is not being offered to investors and there is no Initial Coin Offering (ICO) to promote the Prosperity City Reward. Like BTC (which is the digital reward generated from the Bitcoin blockchain), the Prosperity City reward is created through a unique blockchain protocol. Each User that participates in the Prosperity City Blockchain protocol shall receive 100% of the User’s allocated Prosperity City Reward and any other digital reward or NFT, which is deposited in the User’s Prosperity City App. The Prosperity City Reward, any NFT, and any other digital reward may reside solely within the Prosperity City Blockchain, and may or may not have value. Prosperity City cannot, and does not, control whether any of the Prosperity City Reward, any NFT, and any other digital reward has monetary value on any other blockchain. On the Prosperity City Blockchain, the Site, or any associated website, neither the Prosperity City Reward nor NFT nor other digital reward may be exchanged for currency.

1.5 Prosperity City App

1.5.1. Prosperity City will provide each User with a Prosperity City App. Prosperity City will never take custody or control over any NFT or digital reward stored in a User’s Prosperity City App. The Prosperity City App does not store, send or receive any NFT or reward, but such transactions occur directly on the Prosperity City Blockchain or other supported blockchains. Instead of the Prosperity City App, the User may use any compatible digital app or wallet provided by a third party company that safely connects to the Prosperity City Blockchain. A User may be able to use the Prosperity City App or other compatible wallet to send and receive any NFT or digital reward with other users of the Prosperity City Blockchain. Prosperity City does not offer any User the ability to exchange one form of currency for any other form of currency (fiat or digital). Prosperity City App is not a custodian, exchange or money transmitter.

1.5.2. When a User creates a Prosperity City App, the Prosperity City Blockchain software generates a cryptographic private key and public key pair that the User must use to send and receive any NFT or digital reward supported on the Prosperity City Blockchain. The User is solely responsible for storing, outside of Prosperity City’s Services, a backup of any User’s Prosperity City App, private key(s), or transaction information that the User maintains in the Prosperity City App or otherwise with the Prosperity City Services. If the User does not backup the Prosperity City App, the User may not be able to access the Prosperity City in the event that Prosperity City discontinues some or all of the Prosperity City Services.

1.5.3. In order for a transaction to be validated on the Prosperity City Blockchain, any Prosperity City transaction through the Prosperity City App must be confirmed and recorded in the distributed ledger associated with the Prosperity City Blockchain. The Prosperity City Blockchain is a decentralized, peer-to-peer network supported by the users of the Prosperity City Blockchain, which is not owned, controlled or operated by Prosperity City.

1.5.4. Prosperity City has no control over any NFT or digital reward (including the Prosperity City Reward) generated through the Prosperity City Blockchain or the Prosperity City App or Site, and cannot ensure that any transaction details a User submits via the Prosperity City Services and Prosperity City App or Site will be confirmed or processed on the Prosperity City Blockchain. The User agrees and understands that the transaction details submitted by the User via the Prosperity City Services and Prosperity City App may not be completed or may be delayed by the Prosperity City Blockchain or any supporting blockchain used to process the transaction. Prosperity City does not guarantee that the Prosperity City App can transfer title or right in any NFT or digital reward, and Prosperity City makes no warranties of title of any kind. Once transaction details have been submitted to the Prosperity City Blockchain, Prosperity City cannot assist the User to cancel or otherwise modify such transaction or details.

1.5.5. In the event of a fork of the Prosperity City Blockchain or any other supported blockchain, Prosperity City may not be able to support the User’s activity related to Prosperity City or any other supported NFT or reward. The User agrees and understands that in the event of a fork of the Prosperity City Blockchain, any transaction associated with the Prosperity City App or Prosperity City Services may not be completed, may be partially completed, incorrectly completed, or substantially delayed. Prosperity City is not responsible for any loss incurred by any User caused in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by a fork of the Prosperity City Blockchain.

1.5.6. With respect to the Prosperity City App, Prosperity City does not receive or store a User’s Prosperity City App password, or any keys, network addresses or transaction history. Prosperity City cannot assist any User with Prosperity City App password retrieval. The User is solely responsible for remembering, storing and keeping secret the User’s Prosperity City App PIN (password), keys and address. Any NFT or digital reward a User has stored within its Prosperity City App may become inaccessible if the User does not know or keep secret its Prosperity City App keys and PIN. Any third party with knowledge of one or more of a User’s credentials (including, without limitation, a backup phrase, App identifier, PIN, or keys) can dispose of the NFT or digital rewards in the User’s Prosperity City App.

1.5.7. Prosperity City does not currently charge a fee for the Prosperity City App, receiving, sending, or storing Prosperity City. However, Prosperity City reserves the right to do so in the future, and in such case any applicable fees will be displayed prior to the User incurring such fee. Notwithstanding, the Prosperity City Blockchain may have Blockchain Transaction Fees required to transact NFT or digital reward transactions through the Prosperity City Blockchain. Prosperity City may attempt to calculate for the User any Blockchain Transactions Fees, though such calculation may be inaccurate or excessive. The User may select a greater or lesser fee, and the User is solely responsible for paying any Blockchain Transaction Fees required on the Prosperity City Blockchain. Prosperity City will neither advance nor fund any Blockchain Transaction Fee on any User’s behalf, nor be responsible for any excess or insufficient fee calculation.

1.5.8. From time to time, there may be programs in place to allow User to receive a reward, in the form of Prosperity City Reward, NFT, or otherwise, based on actions taken by the User, whether it be by referral or other program in place at the time (“Additional Rewards”). User understands that Prosperity City makes no representations or warrants regarding the Additional Rewards. Notwithstanding or limiting the foregoing, Prosperity City further makes no representations or warrants surrounding the operation of any Prosperity City Services or that said Prosperity City Services/Additional Rewards will be error-free or uninterrupted. User accepts the sole responsibility for taking any and all actions to obtain any Additional Rewards, and holds Prosperity City harmless for any opportunity cost or losses that occur as a result of the non-receipt of anticipated Additional Rewards, monetary or otherwise.

Nothing contained in this Agreement, exhibit to this Agreement, or any representation made outside of this Agreement, conveys on the User any ownership interests in Prosperity City or its subsidiaries, or interests otherwise in the Prosperity City (including, but not limited to voting rights in the Prosperity City), nor any expectation of profits from the efforts of the Prosperity City or its principals or subsidiaries. The User understands that while it may from time to time receive rewards in line with the distribution schedule of the Node Ecosystem (“Distribution Rewards'') (subject to change), said reward is solely earned because of and as a direct result of work accomplished and performed by the User (i.e. work done by the Prosperity City Game Node). The User recognizes that should the User never actually run the Prosperity City Game Node, it will receive no rewards. Prosperity City has no control of the method in which rewards are distributed to the Prosperity City Game Node.

Each party represents and warrants that: (i) it has full power and authority to enter into these Terms & Conditions; and (ii) it will comply with all laws and regulations applicable to its provision or use of Prosperity City Services. USER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT USER DOES NOT RESIDE IN ANY REGION THAT EXPLICITLY BANS THE USE OF LOOT BOXES IN GAMES IN ACCORDANCE WITH GAMBLING LAWS.

  1. DISCLOSURES & RISKS

8.1 Notification. Prosperity City notifies each User of certain disclosures and risks associated with blockchain NFT and digital rewards and their associated technology and protocols. Prosperity City Services are not an investment product, and no action, notice, communication by any means, or omission by Prosperity City shall be understood or interpreted as such. Prosperity City has no influence whatsoever on the Prosperity City Blockchain, the transactions and consensus protocols, or the NFTs or digital rewards, including the Prosperity City Reward. Ownership of a Prosperity City App or Game Node or the use of Prosperity City Services does not represent or constitute any ownership right or stake, share or security, debt or equivalent right, or any right to receive any future revenue or form of participation in or relating to any blockchain or digital reward, including the Prosperity City Blockchain or Prosperity City Reward.

8.2 Digital Rewards. Digital rewards are not considered legal tender, are not issued or backed by any government, and have fewer regulatory protections than traditional currency. Moreover, digital rewards are not insured against theft or loss by any insurance corporation or any investor protection, including the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation.

8.3 Market Risk. The value of NFTs and digital rewards are derived from supply and demand in the global marketplace, which can rise or fall independent of any government currency. Holding NFTs and digital rewards carries exchange rate and other types of risk. The value of NFTs and digital rewards may be derived from the continued willingness of market participants to exchange traditional government currency for digital rewards, which may result in the potential for permanent and total loss of value of a particular digital reward should the market disappear. The volatility and unpredictability of the price and value of NFTs and digital rewards, relative to government currency, may result in significant loss over a short period of time. Prosperity City cannot guarantee or warrant the value of any NFT, digital reward or blockchain, including the Prosperity City Blockchain and Prosperity City Reward, and explicitly warns the User that that there is no reason to believe that any NFT or blockchain reward will increase in value, and that they may hold no value, decrease in value, or entirely lose value.

8.4. Regulatory Risk. Legislative and regulatory changes or actions at the state, federal, or international level may adversely affect the use, transfer, exchange, and value of virtual NFTs and blockchain rewards. The regulatory status of cryptographic tokens, digital assets and blockchain technology is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions. It is difficult to predict how or whether governmental authorities will regulate such technologies. It is likewise difficult to predict how or whether any governmental authority may make changes to existing laws, regulations and/or rules that will affect cryptographic tokens, digital assets, blockchain technology and its applications. Such changes could negatively impact the Prosperity City Services in various ways, including, for example, through a determination that any of the above are regulated financial instruments that require registration. Prosperity City may cease any distribution of any of the above, the development of the Prosperity City platform or cease operations in a jurisdiction in the event that governmental actions make it unlawful or commercially undesirable to continue to do so. The industry in which Prosperity City operates is new, and may be subject to heightened oversight and scrutiny, including investigations or enforcement actions. There can be no assurance that governmental, quasi-governmental, regulatory or other similar types of (including banking) authorities will not examine the operations of Prosperity City and/or pursue enforcement actions against Prosperity City. Such governmental activities may or may not be the result of targeting Prosperity City in particular. All of this may subject Prosperity City to judgments, settlements, fines or penalties, or cause Prosperity City to restructure its operations and activities or to cease offering certain products or services, all of which could harm Prosperity City’s reputation or lead to higher operational costs, which may in turn have a material adverse effect on the Prosperity City Services.

8.5 Technology Risk. Virtual NFT and digital reward transactions may be irreversible and losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions may not be recoverable. Some virtual transactions are deemed to be made when recorded on a public ledger, which may not necessarily be the date or time the user initiated the transaction. The nature of such virtual transactions may lead to an increased risk of fraud or cyber-attacks.

8.6 Changes to Prosperity City Game Node Network. 

Prosperity City and User recognize that from time to time amendments will be made to the Prosperity City Game Node Network. Prosperity City and User both specifically agree that Prosperity City will, from time to time, present the Prosperity City Game Node Network with proposed amendments (the “Proposed Amendments'') that the Node Network will then vote on whether to implement or not (the “Governance Vote”). The User understands that the Proposed Amendments will be made at the discretion of Prosperity City, and Prosperity City owes the User no duty or obligation to make proposals in its best interests. The User specifically understands that there may come a time when Prosperity City proposes an amendment that is not in or in direct opposition to the User’s best interests, financial or otherwise (including, but not limited to a change in the distribution calculation), and the User has no legal recourse against Prosperity City should any Proposed Amendment be approved and implemented through the Governance Vote. The User’s only recourse is to vote against said Proposed Amendment. Prosperity City and the User both agree that one such Proposed Amendment may be to change the specifications, including, but not limited to the internet connection, Random Access Memory, Central Processing Unit requirements, extra space, and any other requirements needed to run the Nodes (the “Specifications”). Prosperity City and User further agree that while the Specifications may be minimal on the effective date of this Agreement, this is subject to change through the Proposed Amendment and the Governance Vote. While Prosperity City does represent and covenant that the Prosperity City Game Node will always be able to be run using the current specifications, Prosperity City does not and cannot represent or covenant that any rewards earned (financial or otherwise) for doing so are not subject to change.
