Nature of the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens
​​
The Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens are issued as utility tokens and are to be used and accepted solely to take part in the Original Perpetual Airdrop experiment, whereby Original Perpetual Airdrop Token holders may receive future random airdrops by virtue of holding Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens.
An Original Perpetual Airdrop Token does not represent any right, claim or asset and is not a security or a financial instrument:
Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens do not constitute securities or financial instruments within the meaning of the EU Directive 2014/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 relating to markets in financial instruments, or any similar laws in any other jurisdiction. Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens confer no direct or indirect right to or claim derived from the Perpetual Airdrop issuer's capital or income, nor do they confer any governance right within the Perpetual Airdrop issuer. Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens serve no investment purpose.
An Original Perpetual Airdrop Token is not a payment token or an electronic currency:
Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens do not, and are not intended to, serve as payment tokens and may not, now or in the future, be accepted by the Perpetual Airdrop issuer (or any other third-party) as a means of payment or as a means of money or value transfer. Further, Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens do not represent a claim on the issuer which is issued on receipt of funds for the purpose of making payment transactions and Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens are not accepted outside the Original Perpetual Airdrop system. Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens are not electronic currencies within the meaning of EU Directive 2009/110/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 September 2009 relating to access to and pursuit of the business of electronic currency institutions and the Perpetual Airdrop issuer is not a payment service provider within the meaning of EU Directive N° 2015/2366 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2015 on payment services in the internal market, or any similar laws of any other jurisdiction. The sole utility of an Original Perpetual Airdrop Token is to participate in airdrops by virtue of holding Perpetual Airdrop Tokens.
The Perpetual Airdrop issuer does not operate a game or lottery, as may be defined under the laws of Costa Rica and/or any other jurisdiction. Participation in the initial airdrop is purely voluntary and not subject to any obligation by the applicant to pay any amounts as part of the application or to enter into an agreement to purchase or sell anything.
The Perpetual Airdrop issuer is neither subject to the supervision of any financial markets, gaming or other authority in Costa Rica or in any other jurisdiction.

​
Risk Factors
​
Receiving and/or acquiring Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens and storing them involves various risks. Therefore, and prior to receiving and/or acquiring Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens, any user should carefully consider the risks, costs, and benefits of receiving and/or acquiring Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens in the context of the present experiment and obtain any independent advice in this regard.
Prospective participants should ensure that they fully understand the nature of the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens and the extent of their exposure to risks associated with the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens.
By receiving, holding or using any Original perpetual airdrop tokens, you expressly acknowledge and assume the following potential risks and liabilities associated with the use of the Original perpetual airdrop tokens:
Risk of losing access to Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens
A private key, or a combination of private keys, is necessary to control and dispose of Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens stored in your digital wallet. Accordingly, loss of requisite private key(s) associated with your digital wallet or vault storing Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens will result in the loss of such Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens. Moreover, any third party that gains access to such private key(s), including by gaining access to login credentials of a hosted wallet service you use, may be able to misappropriate your Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens. Any errors or malfunctions caused by or otherwise related to the digital wallet chosen to receive and store Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens, including your own failure to properly maintain such digital wallet, may also result in the loss of Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens. Additionally, failure to follow precisely the procedures set forth for receiving or claiming Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens, including, for Instance, If you provide the wrong address to receive Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens, or provide an address that Is not ERC-20 compatible, may also result In the loss of the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens.
Risks associated with the Ethereum protocol
Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens are based on the Ethereum protocol. Therefore, any malfunction, unplanned function, or unexpected operation of the Ethereum protocol may cause Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens to malfunction or operate in a way that is not expected.
For more information on the Ethereum protocol, see http://www.ethereum.org
Risks associated with the Chainlink's VRF V2.5 technology.
Chainlink VRF (Verifiable Random Function) uses verifiable random functions to generate randomness that is verifiable on-chain. Chainlink VRF ensures that smart contract access randomness without compromising on security, by generating a random number upon every request for randomness with cryptographic proof of the number generation. While the Perpetual Airdrop issuer follows Chainlink's security recommendations, there is a risk that miners or validators manipulate randomness generation.
Legal risk and risk of adverse regulatory intervention in one or more jurisdictions
The Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens may be impacted by the passing of restrictive laws, the publication of restrictive or negative opinions, the issuing of injunctions by national regulators, the initiation of regulatory actions or investigations, including but not limited to restrictions on the use or ownership of digital tokens such as the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens, which may prevent or limit development of the Original Perpetual Airdrop Token experiment.
Given the lack of token qualifications in most countries, each holder is strongly advised to carry out a legal and tax analysis concerning the purchase and ownership of the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens according to their nationality and place of residence, knowing that the people eligible to receive (as an airdrop) and/or acquire the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens are limited as mentioned above in the "III.Eligility to apply and hold Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens".
Risk of hacking and security weaknesses
Hackers or other malicious or criminal groups or organizations may attempt to interfere with the availability of the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens in several ways including, but not limited to, denial of service attacks, Sybil attacks, mystification, surfing, malware attacks, or consensus-based attacks.
Risk of security weaknesses in the Original Perpetual Airdrop system's core infrastructure software
The Original Perpetual Airdrop core software is based on open-source code. There is a risk that the Perpetual Airdrop issuer, or other third parties, may intentionally or unintentionally introduce weaknesses or bugs into the core infrastructure elements of the Original Perpetual Airdrop experiment, by interfering with the use of, or causing loss of, Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens.
Risk relating to public data
Original Perpetual Airdrop Token holders should be aware that the holding of Airdrop Tokens Is registered In the Ethereum blockchain and may be visible to the public. The Ethereum blockchain is neither the property nor under control of the Perpetual Airdrop issuer or any other party related to Airdrop Tokens. Information available on the Ethereum blockchain may be exploited or miss-used in, as of today, unforeseen ways.
Risk of weakness or exploitable breakthrough in the field of cryptography
Advances in cryptography, or technical advances such as the development of quantum computers, may present risks, which could result in the theft or loss of the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens.
Risk of an Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens mining attack
As with other decentralized cryptographic tokens based on the Ethereum protocol, the blockchain used for the Original Perpetual Airdrop experiment is vulnerable to mining attacks, including but not limited to, dual-expense attacks, powerful mining attacks, selfish mining attacks, and critical competition attacks. Any successful attack poses a risk to the Original Perpetual Airdrop experiment, the expected performance and sequencing of markets, and the expected performance and sequencing of Ethereum contract calculations. Despite the best efforts of the Perpetual Airdrop issuer, the risk of known or new mining attacks exists.
Risk of a tight market for Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens
There are currently no exchanges or trading facilities on which the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens can be traded. If such exchanges or trading facilities do develop, they will probably be relatively new and subject to poorly understood regulatory oversight. They may therefore be more vulnerable to fraud and default than the established and regulated exchanges that exist for financial instruments. Should exchanges or trading facilities that represent a substantial part of the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens trading volume be involved in fraud, security failures or other operational problems, the failures of such exchanges or trading facilities may limit the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens value or liquidity.
Risk of an uninsured loss
Unlike bank accounts or accounts in other regulated financial institutions, funds held through the Ethereum network are generally uninsured. At present, there are no public or private insurance agents providing acquirers with coverage against a loss of Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens or a loss of value.
Risk of winding-up of the Original Perpetual Airdrop issuer experiment
There is a risk that, due to any reason, the Perpetual Airdrop issuer experiment may no longer be a viable activity and may be dissolved or simply not launched.
Risks associated with uncertain regulations and enforcement actions
The regulatory status of the Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens and distributed ledger technology is unclear and unsettled in many jurisdictions. It is difficult to predict how or whether regulatory authorities may apply existing regulation with respect to such technology and its applications, including the Original Perpetual Airdrop experiment and Its Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens. It is likewise difficult to predict how or whether legislatures or regulatory authorities may implement changes to law and regulation affecting distributed ledger technology and its applications, including the Original Perpetual Airdrop experiment and Its Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens.
Risks arising from taxation
Original Perpetual Airdrop Token holders must seek their own tax advice in connection with the receipt of Original Perpetual Airdrop Tokens, which may result in adverse tax consequences to Original Perpetual Airdrop Token holders, including withholding taxes, income taxes and tax reporting requirements. The Perpetual Airdrop issuer is not responsible for collecting taxes from Original Perpetual Airdrop Token holders, for making any payments on behalf of the Original Perpetual Airdrop Token holders, or for providing any professional advice relating to tax.
Unforeseen risks
Token-currencies and cryptographic tokens are a new, untested technology. In addition to the risks stipulated above, there are other risks that the Perpetual Airdrop issuer team cannot predict. Risks may also occur as unanticipated combinations or as changes in the risks stipulated herein.
