The Smart Contracts and the Site are collectively referred to in these Terms as the “App”. Using the App, users can view their assets and use the Smart Contracts to acquire, trade, and play with other App users.

5. FEE AND PAYMENT
Any purchases of digital assets from the site or marketplace will be done through smart contracts on a blockchain using a wallet like Metamask. Any financial transactions that you engage in will be conducted solely through the Blockchain via a wallet such as MetaMask.

Ethereum requires the payment of a transaction fee (a “Gas Fee”) for every transaction that occurs on the Ethereum network. The Gas Fee funds the network of computers that run the decentralized Ethereum network. This means that you will need to pay a Gas Fee for each transaction that occurs via the App.
In addition to the Gas Fee, each time you utilize a Smart Contract to conduct a transaction with another user via the App, you authorize BlocUnited LLC to collect a commission of 4.25% of the total value of that transaction (each, a “Commission”).

Accordingly, neither you nor Hunycomb Games may start a formal arbitration proceeding for at least sixty (60) days after one party notifies the other party of a claim in writing. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
ii. Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes
· We each agree that any Dispute will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. You and Hunycomb Games agree that the state and federal courts located in the Cayman Islands governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms, and that you and Hunycomb Games are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.
iii. Exceptions
· As limited exceptions to Section 14(ii) above: (a) we both may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and (b) we each retain the ant to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights.
iv. Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules.
· The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800- 778-7879. A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to AAA and give notice to the other party as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org. Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) where you live, unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, and scope of this arbitration agreement.
v. Arbitration Costs
· Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, and we won't seek to recover the administration and arbitrator fees we are responsible for paying, unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous.

If you prevail in arbitration, you will be entitled to an award of attorneys' fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.
vi. Injunctive and Declaratory Relief
· Except as provided in Section 14(iii) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by either party and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in of the individual party seeking relief and only to necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. To the extent that you or we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.
vii. Class Action Waiver
· YOU AND HUNYCOMB GAMES AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void.
