Risks You acknowledge and agree that there are numerous risks associated with purchasing tokens, holding tokens, and using tokens for participation in the BANSKY DAO platform. In the worst scenario, this could lead to the loss of all or part of the tokens which had been purchased. All terms and conditions are subject to change at any time, for any reason or no reason at all.

IF YOU DECIDE TO PURCHASE TOKENS, YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE, ACCEPT AND ASSUME THE FOLLOWING RISKS:

  1. Uncertain Regulations and Enforcement Actions: The regulatory status of tokens and distributed ledger technology is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions. The regulation of virtual currencies has become a primary target of regulation in all major countries in the world. It is impossible to predict how, when or whether regulatory agencies may apply existing regulations or create new regulations with respect to such technology and its applications, including tokens and/or the BANSKY DAO platform. Regulatory actions could negatively impact tokens and/or the BANSKY DAO platform in various ways. The Company, the Distributor (or their respective affiliates) may cease operations in a jurisdiction in the event that regulatory actions, or changes to law or regulation, make it illegal to operate in such jurisdiction, or commercially undesirable to obtain the necessary regulatory approval(s) to operate in such jurisdiction. After consulting with a wide range of legal advisors and continuous analysis of the development and legal structure of virtual currencies, a cautious approach will be applied towards the sale of tokens. Therefore, for the token sale, the sale strategy may be constantly adjusted in order to avoid relevant legal risks as much as possible.

  2. Inadequate disclosure of information

  3. Competitors As at the date hereof, the BANSKY DAO platform is still under development and its design concepts, consensus mechanisms, algorithms, codes, and other technical details and parameters may be constantly and frequently updated and changed. Although this whitepaper contains the most current information relating to the BANSKY DAO platform, it is not absolutely complete and may still be adjusted and updated by the team from time to time. The team has no ability and obligation to keep holders of tokens informed of every detail (including development progress and expected milestones) regarding the project to develop the platform, hence insufficient information disclosure is inevitable and reasonable. Various types of decentralised applications and networks are emerging at a rapid rate, and the industry is increasingly competitive. It is possible that alternative networks could be established that utilise the same or similar code and protocol underlying platform and attempt to re-create similar facilities. The platform may be required to compete with these alternative networks, which could negatively impact the project and/or the platform.

  4. Loss of Talent The development of the project greatly depends on the continued cooperation of the existing technical team and expert consultants, who are highly knowledgeable and experienced in their respective sectors. The loss of any member may adversely affect the BANSKY DAO platform or its future development. Further, stability and cohesion within the team is critical to the overall development of the BANSKY DAO platform. There is the possibility that conflict within the team and/or departure of core personnel may occur, resulting in negative influence on the project in the future.

  5. Failure to develop There is the risk that the development of the BANSKY DAO platform will not be executed or implemented as planned, for a variety of reasons, including without limitation the event of a decline in the prices of any digital asset, virtual currency or tokens, unforeseen technical difficulties, and shortage of development funds for activities. Hackers or other malicious groups or organisations may attempt to interfere with tokens and/or the BANSKY DAO platform. in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, malware attacks, denial of service attacks, consensus-based attacks, Sybil attacks, smurfing and spoofing. Furthermore, there is a risk that a third party or a member of the Company, the Distributor or their respective affiliates may intentionally or unintentionally introduce weaknesses into the core infrastructure of tokens and/or the BANSKY DAO platform, which could negatively affect the tokens and/or the BANSKY DAO platform.

  6. Security weaknesses Further, the future of cryptography and security innovations are highly unpredictable and advances in cryptography, or technical advances (including without limitation development of quantum computing), could present unknown risks to the tokens and/or the BANSKY DAO platform by rendering ineffective the cryptographic consensus mechanism that underpins that blockchain protocol.

  7. Other risks In addition, the potential risks briefly mentioned above are not exhaustive and there are other risks associated with your purchase, holding and use of tokens, including those that the Foundation or the Distributor cannot anticipate. Such risks may further materialise as unanticipated variations or combinations of the aforementioned risks. You should conduct full due diligence on the Company, the Distributor, their respective affiliates, and the BANSKY DAO team, as well as understand the overall framework, mission and vision for the project prior to purchasing tokens.
