Terms & Conditions

Ecosystem Agreement · v3.0

By downloading, installing, using the QUARK NETWORK ($QRK) application, or participating in the Community Presale, you agree to be fully bound by these Terms and Conditions.

1. Acceptance of Terms

CORE

By downloading, installing, using the QUARK NETWORK ($QRK) application, or participating in the Community Presale, you agree to be fully bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree, do not use the application or participate in any network events.

  • These terms apply to all users of the QUARK NETWORK platform including community miners, presale buyers, claimants, and any third-party integrators.
  • Continued use of the application constitutes acceptance of any updated terms.

2. Eligibility

CORE

Participation standards to ensure a compliant community:

  • You must be at least 18 years of age to participate.
  • You must have a valid Google account for application registration.
  • One person may hold and operate only one (1) account.
  • One physical device may only be registered to one (1) unique account.
  • Participation is void where prohibited by local jurisdictions or applicable law.
  • The team reserves the right to restrict access or token distribution by region if required by international digital asset compliance regulations.

3. Account Registration & Security

CORE

Users must maintain secure account registration parameters:

  • Each user is permitted exactly one (1) account linked to a verified Google profile.
  • You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your account credentials.
  • The core team is not liable for unauthorized access, hacking, or compromised user accounts.
  • Accounts verified as duplicates or clones via the audit system will be permanently banned and all accumulated $pQRK balances forfeited.

4. One Device, One Account Policy & Anti-Cheat

CORE

To verify honest distribution, node limits are cryptographically mapped:

  • Each physical device may only register and execute one application node.
  • Cryptographic device fingerprinting is strictly enforced at registration using the SHA-256(Android_ID + Hardware_Model_String) calculation model.
  • The use of emulators, virtual machines, parallel space applications, cloned apps, or rooted devices is strictly prohibited.
  • Attempting to bypass device verification or manipulating data inputs will result in an immediate, permanent network ban.
  • All $pQRK associated with blacklisted accounts or devices will be permanently forfeited.

5. Mining Rules & the $pQRK System

MINING

The mining protocol operates under strict mathematical temporal boundaries:

  • Mining operations are available for a strict timeline of exactly 180 days from the official app launch date.
  • $pQRK is an in-app promotional engagement point — it carries zero financial value, cannot be traded, and is not a financial instrument.
  • Users must manually trigger a claim action once every 24 hours to commit mining data to the database.
  • Mining velocity and rewards degrade automatically upon reaching global network milestones via the Algorithmic Velocity Halving system: Decay Algorithm Rate = 10.4 / (2^N), where N represents the active Tier level (0, 1, 2, 3, or 4).
  • After the 180-day epoch terminates, no new $pQRK can be generated under any circumstance.

6. Inactive Node Penalty System

MINING

An automated penalty acts against network data hoarding and inactivity:

  • To prevent data hoarding and prioritize active community distribution, an automated penalty engages if a node fails to log a claim action within its designated 24-hour cycle.
  • The system systematically deducts points equivalent to the current mining tier rate for every hour the node remains offline: Total Accumulated Penalty = Current Tier Rate × Hours Remained Inactive.
  • Balance degradation applies to the account ledger and the Global Total Mine Points counter.
  • The absolute floor value for penalties is fixed; the updated final account balance can never decrease below zero (0).
  • Users must clear the penalty state via the in-app dashboard to resume active mining operations.

7. Community Presale Participation (5.0% Allocation)

MINING

A dedicated 5% allocation (50,000,000 $QRK) is reserved for the Community Presale:

  • This raised capital directly funds exchange security deposits, market making, and automated liquidity bootstrapping.
  • Presale participation is completely voluntary and carries inherent cryptographic market risks.
  • All capital contributed to the presale is locked upon transmission to the presale contract and is non-refundable.
  • Presale allocations are strictly capped, and tokens will be distributed based on the structural dual-phase framework outlined in Section 8.

8. Airdrop Calculations & Structural Dual-Phase Claim

MINING

Distributions are governed by the Proof-of-Engagement (PoE) snapshot data at Day 180:

  • Conversion Ratio = Total Sum of All Active $pQRK Balances ÷ 375,000,000.
  • Your Claimable Allocated $QRK = Individual Balance ÷ Conversion Ratio.
  • Dual-Phase Release Architecture (Anti-Dump Protocol) — Phase 1 (TGE / Day 1 of Listing): 50% of the user's allocated $QRK tokens becomes instantly claimable via the Web3 portal.
  • Phase 2 (Day 45 Post-Listing): The remaining 50% of tokens unlocks automatically via the smart contract vault and becomes claimable.
  • Strict Burning Deadline: Users have an absolute 30-day window to claim tokens after each unlock phase opens. Unclaimed tokens after the 30-day deadline are permanently and automatically burned by the smart contract.

9. Solana Wallet & Next.js Claim Portal

MINING

Token claims operate strictly on-chain on the Solana network:

  • Users are solely responsible for providing a valid, SPL-compliant Solana wallet address (e.g., Phantom, Solflare) during the submission window.
  • The claim dashboard operates via a decentralized Next.js Web3 interface.
  • Submission of an incorrect, corrupted, or exchange-hosted wallet address will result in the total and permanent loss of tokens.
  • Wallet addresses cannot be modified, swapped, or recovered after the final submission deadline.
  • Users are required to fund and execute their own Solana network transaction fees (~$0.001 SOL) to process claims on-chain.

10. Ad-Supported Boost System

MINING

Watching a rewarded engagement advertisement activates a 2x Velocity Multiplier Engine:

  • Boosted Velocity Rate = Current Active Tier Base Rate × 2.
  • Each completed media interaction provides a boost duration of exactly 1 hour.
  • Multiple ad interactions queue linearly (stack up) to extend the active multiplier timeline.
  • The core team assumes no liability for network latency, ad delivery failures, or third-party ad provider blackouts that affect boost activation.

11. Referral & Invite Tracking

MINING

Referral structure bounds and limits:

  • Every registered node is allocated a unique referral code.
  • Referral data is utilized strictly for community analytics, invite tracking, and internal growth mapping.
  • No direct financial rewards, token guarantees, or baseline mining boosts are derived from referrals.
  • Algorithmic manipulation or botting of the referral network will result in immediate termination of the parent account.

12. Prohibited Conduct & Enforcement

LEGAL

Immediate, permanent account bans and total token/points forfeiture will be enforced for any user executing:

  • Sybil attacks (running multiple accounts on one or more devices).
  • Utilizing automated scripts, programmatic API injection, or data spoofing bots.
  • Exploiting system bugs or code vulnerabilities (unreported exploits will lead to automatic blacklisting).
  • Using Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) or proxy configurations to mask geographical or algorithmic footprints for manipulation purposes.
  • Any attempt to modify or compromise the Solana claim portal or smart contract ecosystem.
  • Ban decisions made by the protocol's automated anti-cheat engine and core auditors are absolute, binding, and final.

13. Utility Token Disclaimer & Market Risk

LEGAL

Strict legal status of $QRK utility tokens:

  • $QRK is strictly a utility token designed for platform engagement, network decentralization, and ecosystem utilities. It is not an investment product, security, equity, or financial asset of any kind.
  • Participation in mining or the presale does not guarantee any financial yield, return, or specific dollar valuation.
  • Token valuation post-listing on DEXs or CEXs is driven entirely by open market forces, decentralized liquidity velocity, and trading volume.
  • The team makes no warranties or representations regarding specific exchange price points, future market capitalizations, or long-term liquidity depths.

14. Intellectual Property & Infrastructure

LEGAL

All brand and design structures are completely proprietary:

  • All proprietary assets including the QUARK NETWORK name, $QRK/$pQRK tickers, smart contract logic, branding assets, logos, and application code are the exclusive intellectual property of the protocol founders.
  • Decompiling, reverse-engineering, or reproducing any framework of the platform without explicit written authorization is strictly prohibited.

15. Limitation of Liability

LEGAL

Critical boundaries bounding any financial or performance liability:

  • The founders, developers, and core advisors assume zero liability for any financial losses, capital exposure, or lost opportunity costs arising from ecosystem participation.
  • The team is not liable for on-chain smart contract exploits, Solana network congestion, RPC node failures, or user-side cryptographic key compromise.
  • Maximum legal liability of the development team is restricted to an absolute value of zero ($0.00) monetary compensation under all global jurisdictions.

16. Governing Law & Disputes

LEGAL

Dispute resolution mechanisms and governing guidelines:

  • These terms are governed by applicable international digital asset regulations and decentralized protocols.
  • Any disputes arising from ecosystem interactions shall be handled exclusively through binding cryptographic or legal arbitration.
  • Class action lawsuits and collective legal actions are expressly waived by the user upon acceptance of this covenant.
