    • The prices of blockchain assets are extremely volatile. Fluctuations in the price of other digital assets could materially and adversely affect the value of your NFTs, which may also be subject to significant price volatility. We cannot guarantee that any purchasers of NFTs will not lose money.

    • We do not own or control any of your NFTs. Due to their digital nature, and the nature of cryptography, the NFTs can become corrupted, and links associated with those NFTs can disappear.

Furthermore, you understand that we have no control whatsoever over the asset storage or the risks associated with using those storages.
    • We will not be liable to you for any losses you incur as the result of your use of any blockchain network.

Similarly, upgrades and changes to the Polygon platform may also have unintended, adverse effects on the DystopAI ecosystem.
