10. Risk Disclosure
10.1 The User understand that NRG Tokens, blockchain technology, Ethereum, Ether and other associated and related technologies are new and untested and outside of Neurogress' exclusive control and adverse changes in market forces or the technology, broadly construed, may prevent or compromise Neurogress' performance under these Terms.
10.2 User agree that no other party (including, without limitation any) may be held liable for any loss arising out of, or in any way connected with User's participation in the NRG Tokens acquisition (within the Stake Program) or receiving and holding NRG Tokens or such risk.
10.3 In addition to the above, the User also acknowledge that prior to receiving NRG Tokens he (she) have been warned of the following risks, associated with the Site, the NRG Tokens, the Platform and other relevant technologies mentioned herein:
10.3.1 Legal risks. Every User is bound to check if acquisition and disposal of NRG Tokens is legal in his (her) jurisdiction, and by accepting these Terms, each User undertakes not to use NRG Tokens should their use not be legal in the relevant jurisdiction. If a User establishes that the use of NRG Tokens under these Terms is not legal in his jurisdiction, the User should not use the NRG Tokens, not acquire them and should immediately stop using or possessing them if such case arises. Acquiring cryptographic Tokens for personal possession and exchanging them for other cryptographic Tokens will most likely continue to be scrutinized by various regulatory bodies around the world, which has so far given mixed reactions and regulatory impact.The legal ability of Neurogress to provide NRG Tokens and the Platform in some jurisdictions may be eliminated by future regulation or legal actions. In the event, it turns out with a high degree certainty that NRG Tokens are not legal in certain jurisdiction, Neurogress will either: (a) cease operations in that jurisdiction, or (b) adjust NRG Tokens and the Platform in a way to comply with the regulation should that be possible and viable.
10.3.2 Risks associated with Ethereum. NRG Tokens are based on Ethereum blockchain. As such, any malfunction, unintended function or unexpected functioning of the Ethereum protocol may cause the NRG Tokens to malfunction or function in an unexpected or unintended manner. Ether, the native unit of account of the Ethereum may itself lose value in ways similar to NRG Tokens, and also other ways.
10.3.3 Risk of unfavourable regulatory changes in one or more jurisdictions. Blockchain technologies have been the subject of scrutiny by various regulatory bodies around the world. The functioning of the Ethereum network and associated blockchain networks and NRG Tokens could be impacted by one or more regulatory inquiries or actions, including but not limited to restrictions on the use or possession of digital Tokens like NRG Tokens, which could impede or limit their existence, permissibility of their use and possession, and their value.
10.3.4 Risk of theft and hacking. Hackers or other groups or organizations may attempt to interfere with the Site or the availability of NRG Tokens in any number of ways, including without limitation denial of service attacks, Sybil attacks, spoofing, smurfing, malware attacks, or consensus-based attacks. You hereby agree that Neurogress shall have no liability for any such loss the User incur.
10.3.5 Risk of security weaknesses in the Site and/or NRG Tokens source code or any associated software and/or infrastructure. There is a risk that the Site and NRG Tokens may unintentionally include weaknesses or bugs in the source code interfering with the use of or causing the loss of NRG Tokens.
10.3.6 Risk of weaknesses or exploitable breakthroughs in the field of cryptography. Advances in cryptography, or technical advances such as the development of quantum computers, could present risks to cryptocurrencies, Ethereum, NRG Tokens, the Platform, which could result in the theft or loss of NRG Tokens.
10.3.7 Risk of mining attacks. As with other decentralized cryptocurrencies, Ethereum blockchain, which is used for the NRG Tokens, is susceptible to mining attacks, including but not limited to double-spend attacks, majority mining power attacks, "selfish-mining" attacks, and race condition attacks. Any successful attacks present a risk to the NRG Tokens, expected proper execution and sequencing of NRG Tokens, and expected proper execution and sequencing of Ethereum contract computations in general. Despite the efforts of Neurogress and Ethereum Foundation, the risk of known or novel mining attacks exists. Mining Attacks, as described above, may also target other blockchain networks, with which the NRG Tokens interact with and consequently the NRG Tokens or the staked ETH may be impacted in that way to the extent, described above.
10.3.8 Risk of loss of value. Value of NRG Tokens may fluctuate and their Users might suffer loss in value of such acquired tokens. There might be different reasons that would cause unfavourable fluctuations of the value of the NRG Tokens.
10.3.9 Risk of uninsured losses. NRG Tokens are unlike bank accounts or accounts at some other financial institutions and are entirely uninsured.
10.3.10 Risk of malfunction in the Ethereum network or any other blockchain. It is possible that the Ethereum network or any other network, to which the NRG Tokens are interacting with, malfunctions in an unfavourable way, including but not limited to one that result in the loss of NRG Tokens.
10.3.11 Internet transmission risks. The User acknowledge that there are risks associated with using the NRG Tokens including, but not limited to, the failure of hardware, software, and Internet connections. The User acknowledge that Neurogress shall not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays You may experience when using the Site and NRG Tokens, howsoever caused.
10.3.12 Unanticipated risks. Cryptocurrencies and blockchains are new and untested technology. In addition to the risks set forth here, there are risks that Neurogress cannot foresee and it is unreasonable to believe that such risks could have been foreseeable. Risks may further materialize as unanticipated.
10.3.13 Insufficient interest in Neurogress, the Platform and NRG Tokens. It is possible that Neurogress, NRG Tokens or Platform will not be used by a large number of individuals, businesses and other organizations and that there will be limited public interest in the creation and development of its functionalities. Such a lack of interest could impact the development of the Platform and Services.

10. Risk Disclosure
10.1 The User understand that NRG Tokens, blockchain technology, Ethereum, Ether and other associated and related technologies are new and untested and outside of Neurogress' exclusive control and adverse changes in market forces or the technology, broadly construed, may prevent or compromise Neurogress' performance under these Terms.
10.2 User agree that no other party (including, without limitation any) may be held liable for any loss arising out of, or in any way connected with User's participation in the NRG Tokens acquisition (within the Stake Program) or receiving and holding NRG Tokens or such risk.
10.3 In addition to the above, the User also acknowledge that prior to receiving NRG Tokens he (she) have been warned of the following risks, associated with the Site, the NRG Tokens, the Platform and other relevant technologies mentioned herein:
10.3.1 Legal risks. Every User is bound to check if acquisition and disposal of NRG Tokens is legal in his (her) jurisdiction, and by accepting these Terms, each User undertakes not to use NRG Tokens should their use not be legal in the relevant jurisdiction. If a User establishes that the use of NRG Tokens under these Terms is not legal in his jurisdiction, the User should not use the NRG Tokens, not acquire them and should immediately stop using or possessing them if such case arises. Acquiring cryptographic Tokens for personal possession and exchanging them for other cryptographic Tokens will most likely continue to be scrutinized by various regulatory bodies around the world, which has so far given mixed reactions and regulatory impact.The legal ability of Neurogress to provide NRG Tokens and the Platform in some jurisdictions may be eliminated by future regulation or legal actions. In the event, it turns out with a high degree certainty that NRG Tokens are not legal in certain jurisdiction, Neurogress will either: (a) cease operations in that jurisdiction, or (b) adjust NRG Tokens and the Platform in a way to comply with the regulation should that be possible and viable.
10.3.2 Risks associated with Ethereum. NRG Tokens are based on Ethereum blockchain. As such, any malfunction, unintended function or unexpected functioning of the Ethereum protocol may cause the NRG Tokens to malfunction or function in an unexpected or unintended manner. Ether, the native unit of account of the Ethereum may itself lose value in ways similar to NRG Tokens, and also other ways.
10.3.3 Risk of unfavourable regulatory changes in one or more jurisdictions. Blockchain technologies have been the subject of scrutiny by various regulatory bodies around the world. The functioning of the Ethereum network and associated blockchain networks and NRG Tokens could be impacted by one or more regulatory inquiries or actions, including but not limited to restrictions on the use or possession of digital Tokens like NRG Tokens, which could impede or limit their existence, permissibility of their use and possession, and their value.
10.3.4 Risk of theft and hacking. Hackers or other groups or organizations may attempt to interfere with the Site or the availability of NRG Tokens in any number of ways, including without limitation denial of service attacks, Sybil attacks, spoofing, smurfing, malware attacks, or consensus-based attacks. You hereby agree that Neurogress shall have no liability for any such loss the User incur.
10.3.5 Risk of security weaknesses in the Site and/or NRG Tokens source code or any associated software and/or infrastructure. There is a risk that the Site and NRG Tokens may unintentionally include weaknesses or bugs in the source code interfering with the use of or causing the loss of NRG Tokens.
10.3.6 Risk of weaknesses or exploitable breakthroughs in the field of cryptography. Advances in cryptography, or technical advances such as the development of quantum computers, could present risks to cryptocurrencies, Ethereum, NRG Tokens, the Platform, which could result in the theft or loss of NRG Tokens.
10.3.7 Risk of mining attacks. As with other decentralized cryptocurrencies, Ethereum blockchain, which is used for the NRG Tokens, is susceptible to mining attacks, including but not limited to double-spend attacks, majority mining power attacks, "selfish-mining" attacks, and race condition attacks. Any successful attacks present a risk to the NRG Tokens, expected proper execution and sequencing of NRG Tokens, and expected proper execution and sequencing of Ethereum contract computations in general. Despite the efforts of Neurogress and Ethereum Foundation, the risk of known or novel mining attacks exists. Mining Attacks, as described above, may also target other blockchain networks, with which the NRG Tokens interact with and consequently the NRG Tokens or the staked ETH may be impacted in that way to the extent, described above.
10.3.8 Risk of loss of value. Value of NRG Tokens may fluctuate and their Users might suffer loss in value of such acquired tokens. There might be different reasons that would cause unfavourable fluctuations of the value of the NRG Tokens.
10.3.9 Risk of uninsured losses. NRG Tokens are unlike bank accounts or accounts at some other financial institutions and are entirely uninsured.
10.3.10 Risk of malfunction in the Ethereum network or any other blockchain. It is possible that the Ethereum network or any other network, to which the NRG Tokens are interacting with, malfunctions in an unfavourable way, including but not limited to one that result in the loss of NRG Tokens.
10.3.11 Internet transmission risks. The User acknowledge that there are risks associated with using the NRG Tokens including, but not limited to, the failure of hardware, software, and Internet connections. The User acknowledge that Neurogress shall not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays You may experience when using the Site and NRG Tokens, howsoever caused.
10.3.12 Unanticipated risks. Cryptocurrencies and blockchains are new and untested technology. In addition to the risks set forth here, there are risks that Neurogress cannot foresee and it is unreasonable to believe that such risks could have been foreseeable. Risks may further materialize as unanticipated.
10.3.13 Insufficient interest in Neurogress, the Platform and NRG Tokens. It is possible that Neurogress, NRG Tokens or Platform will not be used by a large number of individuals, businesses and other organizations and that there will be limited public interest in the creation and development of its functionalities. Such a lack of interest could impact the development of the Platform and Services.
