# Disclaimer

BitSota/SN94 is experimental software and infrastructure. Use it at your own
risk.

## Acceptance

By downloading, installing, running, submitting to, validating for, claiming
through, connecting to, or otherwise continuing to use this software or related
services, you acknowledge and agree to this disclaimer.

## No Reward Guarantee

Participation does not guarantee any reward, payout, emission, claim, rank,
score, validator acceptance, or future economic benefit. Any reward estimates,
leaderboards, balances, claim pages, dashboards, or API outputs are
informational only and may be delayed, incorrect, vetoed, recalculated,
paused, superseded, or never paid.

Rewards may fail or become unavailable for any reason, including but not
limited to:

- miner, validator, backend, Pool, relay, chain, wallet, key, or network
  failures;
- smart contract bugs, hacks, exploits, vetoes, governance actions, incorrect
  Merkle roots, or failed claims;
- Bittensor, Subtensor, EVM, RPC, App Runner, DNS, storage, database, Docker,
  CUDA, Hugging Face, or other third-party outages or changes;
- scoring bugs, validator disagreement, duplicate submissions, invalid
  artifacts, dataset changes, or task rule changes;
- operator error, shutdowns, migrations, emergency pauses, missed windows, or
  security incidents;
- events outside anyone's control.

## No Operational Promise

No service, endpoint, validator, Pool, contract, dataset, competition, scoring
rule, dashboard, branch, release, or reward path is promised to remain live,
unchanged, secure, funded, compatible, or available. Systems may be upgraded,
paused, replaced, deprecated, misconfigured, compromised, or shut down.

## No Managed Account, Advisory, Or Insurance Promise

BitSota contributors, maintainers, operators, validators, service providers,
and related parties do not provide managed accounts, brokerage, insurance, or
financial advice for miners, validators, users, or claimants. No one should
rely on the software, Pool services, contracts, dashboards, or public endpoints
as a guarantee that rewards, emissions, rankings, claim windows, Merkle proofs,
or successful claims will exist, remain available, or be recoverable.

## Assumption Of Risk

You are responsible for your own keys, wallets, infrastructure, submissions,
validators, transactions, gas/fees, and operational decisions. You may lose
TAO, Alpha, stake, fees, claimable rewards, expected rewards, data, time,
hardware cost, or opportunity cost.

BitSota contributors, maintainers, operators, validators, service providers,
and related parties do not promise that the software, APIs, contracts,
validators, scoring systems, reward systems, Pool services, or public endpoints
will be correct, secure, available, profitable, or fit for any particular
purpose.

## No Financial Advice

Nothing in BitSota/SN94 software, services, repositories, documentation, APIs,
dashboards, contracts, public endpoints, community channels, or related
communications is financial, investment, legal, tax, or operational advice. Do
your own diligence before running miners, validators, wallets, contracts, or
transactions.

## Limitation Of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, BitSota contributors,
maintainers, operators, validators, service providers, and related parties are
not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary,
punitive, or other damages arising from use of, inability to use, or reliance on
this software or related infrastructure, including loss of funds, rewards,
profits, data, keys, access, or business opportunity. Nothing in this disclaimer
excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded.
