Terms of Service

By accessing or using goBlink (the "Service"), which includes the website at goblink.io, its subdomains, associated services, applications, and APIs, you ("User", "you", or "your") agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms").

If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Service. Your continued use of the Service constitutes acceptance of these Terms and any future modifications.

The following terms have specific meanings in these Terms:

• Protocol: The underlying cross-chain infrastructure and smart contracts that enable intent-based token transfers across blockchains.
• Intent: A user's expression of a desired outcome (e.g., "transfer 100 USDC from Ethereum to Solana") without specifying the exact execution path.
• Solver: A third-party service provider that competes to fulfill user intents by finding optimal execution paths and providing quotes.
• Execution Network: The decentralized network of independent Solvers and infrastructure providers that execute cross-chain transfers through the Protocol.
• Third-Party Bridges: External cross-chain bridging infrastructure (including Chain Signatures, MPC networks, and other bridge solutions) used to transfer assets between blockchains.

goBlink is a non-custodial frontend interface that enables users to express cross-chain transfer intents and interact with the Protocol. We provide a user-friendly way to access third-party infrastructure across 20+ blockchain networks.

Important clarifications:

• Interface Only: goBlink is a frontend interface. We do NOT operate the Protocol, Execution Network, or any underlying blockchain infrastructure. All cross-chain execution is performed by independent third parties.
• Non-Custodial: goBlink does not hold, store, or have access to user funds at any time. All transactions are executed on-chain via smart contracts and the Execution Network.
• Third-Party Infrastructure: Cross-chain transfer execution is performed by the Protocol, Execution Network, Third-Party Bridges, and blockchain networks. goBlink is not responsible for the operation, reliability, security, or availability of these systems.
• No Control Over Execution: goBlink does not control how Solvers execute intents, which execution paths are chosen, or the final pricing and timing of transactions.
• Auto-Refund: Failed transfers may trigger automatic refunds through the underlying Protocol infrastructure, though network fees may still apply and are non-refundable.

To use the Service, you must meet the following eligibility requirements:

• You must be at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction).
• You must not be located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any sanctioned jurisdiction, including but not limited to countries sanctioned by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), the United Nations, the European Union, or other applicable sanctions authorities.
• You must not be listed on any sanctions lists (e.g., OFAC SDN list, EU sanctions lists).
• You are solely responsible for ensuring your use of the Service complies with all applicable laws, regulations, and rules in your jurisdiction, including but not limited to financial regulations, tax laws, anti-money laundering (AML) requirements, and know-your-customer (KYC) obligations.

goBlink reserves the right to restrict or deny access to the Service from certain jurisdictions or to certain users at our discretion.

To use the Service, you may connect your cryptocurrency wallet(s) or authenticate using social login providers that create embedded wallets via our integration with Reown AppKit (formerly WalletConnect) and other providers.

You are solely responsible for:

• Maintaining the security and confidentiality of your wallet private keys, seed phrases, passwords, and authentication credentials.
• All transactions initiated from your connected wallet(s), whether authorized by you or by unauthorized third parties who gain access to your credentials.
• Understanding the risks of using embedded wallets created through social login providers.
• Ensuring you maintain backups of your seed phrases and private keys. Loss of access to your wallet is irreversible, and goBlink cannot recover lost funds or credentials.

goBlink has no access to your private keys or seed phrases and cannot reverse, cancel, or recover transactions.

When you initiate a cross-chain transfer through the Service, the following applies:

• Quotes Are Estimates: Token exchange rates, amounts, and fees displayed during the quote process are estimates provided by Solvers and are not guaranteed. The final execution price may differ from the quoted price due to market volatility, slippage, network congestion, or changes between quote time and execution time.
• Slippage: The actual amount you receive may be less than the quoted amount due to slippage, which occurs when market prices move between the time a quote is generated and when the transaction is executed on-chain.
• No Guarantee of Optimal Execution: goBlink does not guarantee optimal pricing, execution speed, or Solver reliability. Solvers are independent third parties, and goBlink does not assess, verify, or endorse any Solver's performance, reputation, or execution quality.
• Bridge and Cross-Chain Risks: Cross-chain transfers rely on Third-Party Bridges, including Chain Signatures, MPC networks, and other bridging infrastructure. These systems involve significant risks, including smart contract vulnerabilities, bridge failures, consensus failures, validator misconduct, and potential permanent loss of assets. goBlink has no control over these systems and is not responsible for bridge failures or losses.
• Irreversibility: Once a transaction is confirmed on the blockchain, it is irreversible. goBlink cannot cancel, reverse, or modify transactions once they are submitted.
• Auto-Refund on Failure: If a transfer cannot be completed due to technical issues, smart contract errors, or other failures, the Protocol may automatically refund your tokens. However, network fees (gas fees) are non-refundable and may still be deducted.
• No Guarantee of Execution: goBlink does not guarantee that any transaction will be successfully executed. Transactions may fail due to network congestion, smart contract errors, insufficient liquidity, slippage exceeding limits, Solver unavailability, bridge outages, or other technical issues.
• Network Delays: Transaction processing times depend on blockchain network conditions, Solver performance, and bridge infrastructure, all of which are beyond goBlink's control. Transfers may take longer than estimated during periods of high network activity.
• User Error: You are responsible for ensuring that recipient addresses, token selections, amounts, and other transaction details are correct. Tokens sent to incorrect addresses or on incorrect chains may be permanently lost.

goBlink is not responsible for: Failed transactions, Solver performance or misconduct, bridge failures, network errors, blockchain forks, smart contract bugs, liquidity issues, slippage, user error, or any losses resulting from transaction execution or non-execution.

goBlink does not act as your agent, advisor, fiduciary, or trustee. We provide a software interface to access third-party infrastructure, and we have no fiduciary relationship or duties to you.

You acknowledge and agree that:

• goBlink does not provide financial, investment, legal, or tax advice.
• goBlink does not recommend or endorse any particular transaction, Solver, or blockchain network.
• goBlink has no duty to act in your best interest or to maximize your returns.
• You are solely responsible for evaluating the risks and suitability of any transaction you initiate.

goBlink charges service fees for facilitating cross-chain transfers. Fees are calculated based on the following tiered structure:

• Transfers under $5,000: 0.35% service fee
• Transfers between $5,000 and $50,000: 0.10% service fee
• Transfers over $50,000: 0.05% service fee

Important fee information:

• Service fees are displayed upfront as a dollar amount before you confirm a transaction.
• Protocol-level fees (including Solver fees and gas fees) are separate from goBlink's service fees and are paid directly to Solvers and blockchain validators. These fees are set by third parties and are beyond goBlink's control.
• Network fees (gas fees) are paid directly to blockchain validators and vary based on network congestion.
• All fees are non-refundable once a transaction is submitted to the blockchain, regardless of whether the transaction succeeds or fails.
• Fee rounding: Fees may be subject to rounding (typically to 2-6 decimal places depending on the token).
• Anti-circumvention: You agree not to attempt to bypass, circumvent, or manipulate goBlink's fee mechanisms through any means, including but not limited to routing transactions through multiple intermediaries, exploiting smart contract vulnerabilities, or using automated tools to avoid fee payment.
• goBlink reserves the right to adjust fee tiers at any time. Fee changes will be reflected in the Service, and your use of the Service after such changes constitutes acceptance of the new fees.

You agree not to use the Service for any unlawful or prohibited purposes, including but not limited to:

• Money Laundering: Using the Service to launder money or obscure the origin of funds.
• Terrorist Financing: Funding or supporting terrorist organizations or activities.
• Sanctions Evasion: Transferring funds to or from sanctioned individuals, entities, or jurisdictions.
• Fraud or Misrepresentation: Engaging in fraudulent activities, scams, or misrepresenting your identity or intent.
• Market Manipulation: Engaging in wash trading, spoofing, front-running, or other forms of market manipulation.
• Intent Manipulation: Submitting intents with falsified parameters, spamming the Protocol or Execution Network with bogus intents, or attempting to manipulate intent execution for personal gain.
• Solver Abuse: Front-running Solver quotes, spamming Solvers with quote requests to cause denial of service, or exploiting Solver pricing mechanisms.
• Cross-Chain Exploits: Leveraging settlement delays, bridge vulnerabilities, or timing attacks to exploit cross-chain infrastructure for unauthorized financial gain.
• Illegal Activity: Using the Service for any activity that violates applicable laws or regulations in your jurisdiction.
• Automated Abuse: Using bots, scrapers, or automated tools to access the Service without explicit written permission from goBlink.
• System Interference: Attempting to interfere with, disrupt, or compromise the security or integrity of the Service or its underlying infrastructure.

goBlink reserves the right to investigate suspected violations, restrict access, and cooperate with law enforcement authorities. We may terminate or suspend your access to the Service immediately without notice if we suspect prohibited use.

Cryptocurrency and Blockchain Risk Acknowledgment:

• Cryptocurrency transactions involve significant financial risk due to market volatility, regulatory uncertainty, and technical complexity.
• The value of cryptocurrencies can fluctuate dramatically and may result in substantial losses.
• Smart Contract Risks: The Protocol, Execution Network, Third-Party Bridges, and blockchain networks rely on smart contracts, which may contain bugs, vulnerabilities, or exploits that could result in loss of funds. Smart contracts are immutable once deployed and may not be updatable to fix security issues.
• Bridge and MPC Risks: Third-Party Bridges, including Chain Signatures and MPC networks, involve cryptographic operations that could be compromised through validator collusion, key theft, consensus failures, or vulnerabilities in MPC protocols. Assets transferred via bridges may be permanently lost if bridge infrastructure fails.
• Quantum Computing Risks: Future advances in quantum computing could potentially compromise blockchain cryptography, including wallet signatures and bridge security mechanisms.
• Blockchain Forks: Blockchain networks may undergo forks (planned or unplanned) that could result in transaction reversals, duplicate assets, or loss of funds.
• AI and Algorithmic Solver Limitations: Solvers may use AI or algorithmic decision-making to route and execute intents. These systems may produce suboptimal results, unexpected behavior, or errors that result in financial losses.
• goBlink does not provide financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. You should consult qualified professionals before making financial decisions.
• goBlink is not responsible for losses resulting from market volatility, user error, smart contract bugs, bridge failures, Solver misconduct, blockchain network issues, or other technical failures.
