Capitalized terms have the meaning given in the Terms of Service. ## 1. What Atoma Points are Atoma Points are a unit of account that Atoma records for eligible activity, such as holding vault shares over time and referring other depositors. They are kept in Atoma's database and shown in the app for the connected wallet. Atoma Points: * have no monetary value and are not money, currency, a deposit, a security, a commodity, a derivative or any other financial instrument; * are not a token, are not recorded on any blockchain, and cannot be bought, sold, transferred, pledged or exchanged; * are not a promise, representation or guarantee of any future token, airdrop, distribution, payment, discount or other benefit, from Atoma or from anyone else; * carry no ownership, governance, dividend, profit or other right in Atoma, the vaults or any other entity; * belong to the wallet address that earned them and to nobody else. Any statement by anyone, including Atoma team members, about a possible future use or value of Atoma Points is not an offer and does not change these Points Terms. ## 2. How points are earned The current rules for earning Atoma Points, including the weekly pool, seasons, tiers, boosts and referral credit, are published at [Referrals](/using-atoma/referrals.md) and in the app. Those pages are part of these Points Terms. * Points for holding shares are calculated from your time-weighted share balance: shares count from the deposit until the withdrawal request. Requested, unclaimed and withdrawn shares earn nothing. * Points are allocated per season and per period as published. Numbers shown in the app before a period is finalized are estimates and may change. * The program is organized in seasons. The end of a season, and whether a further season is run, is announced on this site or on our official channels. * Atoma may at any time change the pool size, the formula, the tiers, the boosts, the referral rules, the eligible vaults or the schedule, with effect from the next period, and may start, pause or end the program entirely. Points already recorded for a finalized period are not reduced by a rule change, except under section 4. ## 3. Venue points Points programs run by venues (such as Lighter, Extended, trade\[XYZ], NADO or Ondo) belong to those venues and are subject to their rules. Atoma passes on to depositors the venue points, tokens or other rewards that the vault actually receives, after the performance fee, in proportion to the time-weighted share balance, as described in [Points](/strategy/points.md). Atoma does not control venue programs and makes no promise about the amount, timing, form or value of any venue reward, or that a venue will honor its program, distribute a token or include the vault. If a venue reward is received in a form that cannot practically be distributed to depositors, Atoma will choose a fair method of distribution or substitution and announce it. ## 4. Fair use and clawback Atoma Points and referral rewards are for genuine use of the vaults. Atoma may, at its sole discretion and without notice, reduce, cancel or withhold points, referral credit, tier status or any related reward, and may exclude a wallet from the program, when it believes any of the following occurred. * Operating multiple wallets to multiply points, tiers or referral rewards. * Referring wallets you control, or arranging circular or paid referrals. * Depositing and withdrawing to game a period, a snapshot or a tier threshold. * Exploiting a bug, error or unintended behavior of the app, the contracts or the points calculation. * Breaching the Terms of Service, including the Restricted Persons rules. * Any other conduct that Atoma reasonably considers abusive or contrary to the purpose of the program. Atoma's determination is final. Points removed under this section may be redistributed or cancelled. ## 5. Referral program * A referral code identifies a wallet. A wallet has at most one referrer, set once at first sign-in or by entering a code, and never changed. * Referral credit is calculated from the referred wallet's deposits and points after the referral relationship was recorded, until that wallet's withdrawal request. * You may share your code publicly, but you may not present yourself as Atoma, offer payment for sign-ups, make promises about returns, points or tokens, or advertise to Restricted Persons. * Atoma may cancel a code, reassign a referral or stop the referral program at any time. ## 6. Any future distribution If Atoma or a venue ever makes a distribution of a token or other asset in connection with points, that distribution will be governed by its own terms, may require identity verification, may exclude Restricted Persons, may be subject to vesting or other conditions, and may be made at a rate or in a form that Atoma decides. Nothing in these Points Terms requires any such distribution to happen. ## 7. Taxes You are responsible for any tax that applies to Atoma Points, venue points, referral rewards or any distribution you receive. Atoma does not provide tax advice and does not withhold taxes. ## 8. No liability Atoma is not liable for any loss arising from the points program, including from a change or end of the program, a change in a venue program, an error in points calculation, a clawback, or a decision about eligibility. Section 13 of the Terms of Service applies. ## 9. Changes Atoma may change these Points Terms at any time by publishing a new version with a new "Last updated" date. Continued participation is acceptance.
