Terms of Service

Entertainment, not gambling. Thoth Arena is a skill-based competitive gaming platform provided for entertainment. Outcomes are determined by player skill. It is not a casino, sportsbook or licensed gambling operator. PVE and unranked PvP (Train) are free.

Eligibility. You must be 18+ (or the age of majority where you live), not located in a Restricted Territory, and solely responsible for confirming that your use β€” including staking $MAAT β€” is lawful where you live, and for any taxes due.

Wagering at your own risk. If you play a staked (Bet) match you may lose your entire stake, voluntarily and at your own risk. Only stake what you can afford to lose. There is no guarantee of winnings; a staked match is a contest of skill, not an investment.

$MAAT. A utility token used to play β€” not a security or investment, offered with no expectation of profit. Crypto is volatile and $MAAT's value may fall to zero. Wagers settle non-custodially via on-chain escrow; you control your wallet and keys.

Fair play. No cheating, bots, multi-accounting, collusion, fraud or money laundering. We may void matches, claw back ill-gotten gains, suspend accounts and report unlawful activity. We may require KYC/AML verification.

Disclaimers & liability. The platform, games, smart contracts and token are provided "as is", without warranties. To the maximum extent permitted by law, [Company legal name] is not liable for any loss of stakes, funds, token value, profits or data. You agree to indemnify us for claims arising from your use or breach.

Governing law. [governing jurisdiction]; disputes via [arbitration / competent courts], individual basis only where permitted. Your mandatory local consumer rights are unaffected. Full terms: docs/legal/TERMS.md.

Risk Disclaimer

Play for fun. Stake at your own risk. By staking $MAAT you acknowledge:

  • you are choosing to play, voluntarily and at your own risk;
  • you can lose your entire stake β€” only play with what you can afford to lose;
  • there is no guarantee of winnings; this is skill, not an investment;
  • $MAAT is a volatile crypto-asset and its value can go to zero;
  • you accept blockchain & smart-contract risk and are responsible for your wallet, keys and transactions;
  • you are 18+ and confirm staking is legal where you live.

If wagering stops being fun, stop. Limits and self-exclusion are available β€” contact [support email]. To the maximum extent permitted by law, [Company legal name] is not liable for any loss.
