Project Terms & Conditions

1. Token–Project Binding

Upon initiating a token launch through Pond, the designated token shall constitute the exclusive and sole digital representation of your project’s ecosystem, including its identity, utility, and economic function, as reviewed and approved by Pond.

You agree not to create, represent, or endorse any other tokenized asset that serves a substantially similar or overlapping purpose, whether under the same project name or otherwise.

2. Single Token Commitment

You shall not mint, deploy, or facilitate the issuance of any additional token or digital asset, on any network or platform, that is intended—directly or indirectly—to represent the same project, user base, or functional purpose as the token launched on Pond.

This prohibition applies to tokens issued under a different name, format (e.g., NFTs, points, utility tokens), or chain, including bridged, wrapped, synthetic, or mirrored versions.

3. Platform Exclusivity

During your active launch lifecycle with Pond, you agree not to launch, list, distribute, or promote the same token—or any derivative, bridged, or wrapped version of it—on any other platform, including decentralized exchanges, token issuance protocols, self-hosted sale sites, or over-the-counter (OTC) mechanisms, without Pond’s prior written approval.

This includes all forms of token availability, such as liquidity provisioning, airdrops, swaps, or listings, regardless of whether publicly marketed.

4. No Self-Launch or Bypass

You shall not, directly or through any affiliated party, conduct a token generation event (TGE), token sale, or public or private token distribution outside of Pond’s framework, unless explicitly authorized in writing by Pond.

Any attempt to circumvent this clause—whether through a DAO, foundation, subcontractor, or third-party partner—shall constitute a material breach, subject to immediate removal from the platform and enforcement of clawback or legal remedies.

5. Ongoing Exclusivity Period

The above exclusivity obligations shall remain in effect until:

• The token has completed the full launch cycle, including fundraising, price-based unlocks, liquidity events, and milestone-based deliverables, as defined by Pond’s official lifecycle documentation; or
• Pond provides written approval for any secondary, derivative, or independent token launch.

6. Additional Enforcement Rights (Optional)

In the event of breach, Pond reserves the right to:

• Withhold or reclaim disbursed funds;
• Revoke project visibility or support;
• Pursue legal or injunctive relief to prevent ongoing harm;
• Disqualify the project from future Pond participation or market access.
