We offer these integrations purely as a convenience and do not control or endorse the products, content, or services provided by these third parties.

All interactions with Third-Party Functionality are solely between you and the third-party provider. Scrypt Wallet is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, legality, or performance of any third-party site, tool, or integration, and disclaims all liability related to your use of or reliance on them.

If you choose to connect your Wallet to external accounts, services, or platforms, you understand and agree that those interactions are governed by the applicable terms of use and privacy policies of the third-party providers. You are responsible for reviewing and accepting those terms before proceeding with any third-party connection or transaction.

9.2 Risk Disclosure & Acknowledgment

By using the Scrypt Wallet platform, you acknowledge and accept the following:

Legal Disclaimer: Scrypt Wallet does not act as an intermediary, custodian, or broker. All transactions are connected through third-parties and executed directly by you the user only. You are not a customer of Scrypt Wallet in a custodial or fiduciary sense.
No Financial Advice: Scrypt Wallet does not provide investment, legal, or tax advice. Any market data, token listings, or third-party integrations displayed in the platform are for informational purposes only and do not represent endorsements or investment recommendations.
Volatility and Market Risk: Digital assets are inherently volatile and carry significant financial risk, including the potential for complete loss. Prices may change rapidly due to speculation, market trends, regulation, security incidents, and technological shifts.
Token and Project Risk: Anyone can create a digital token. Fake or misleading tokens may appear identical to legitimate ones. You are solely responsible for validating the authenticity of any token you interact with.
Blockchain Risk: The cost, speed, and reliability of blockchain-based transactions (e.g., on Solana or other networks) may fluctuate. Network congestion, gas fees, or protocol-level issues may cause delays, high costs, or failed transactions.
Security & Self-Custody: You are solely responsible for managing your wallet’s private keys, seed phrase, and any associated credentials. Scrypt Wallet does not store or have access to your recovery information. If you lose your private keys or seed phrase, you may lose access to your digital assets permanently. We strongly discourage sharing or storing this information publicly or in unsecured environments.
Evolving Technology: Cryptography, blockchain protocols, and decentralized technologies continue to evolve. This includes the future risk of advances like quantum computing. While we aim to keep our software secure, we cannot guarantee protection against all current or future vulnerabilities.
Regulatory Uncertainty: The digital asset ecosystem is subject to evolving regulations. Your use of Scrypt Wallet could be impacted by changes in law or enforcement actions in your jurisdiction or globally. We make no guarantees about the continued availability of our services in any specific legal or regulatory environment.
Accuracy of Information: Although we aim to provide timely and accurate information, we make no guarantees that data on the Site, including pricing, fees, or transaction history, is complete, real-time, or error-free. You are responsible for independently verifying any information before making decisions.
Third-Party Responsibility: Your interactions with third-party services, decentralized exchanges, or external wallets are solely between you and the third-party provider. Scrypt Wallet is not liable for errors, losses, or service disruptions arising from third-party platforms, APIs, or DApps.

9.3 Legal Compliance

Scrypt Wallet is a developer and provider of self-custody wallet software and Web3 functionality. We do not act as a broker, exchange, dealer, clearinghouse, investment adviser, money transmitter, or custodian of digital assets. Scrypt Wallet does not offer trade execution, custody of funds, or clearing services. All transactions initiated through the Scrypt Wallet platform are signed and executed directly by users using their own self-managed wallets with a third-party like paypal, typically over public blockchain networks such as Solana or Bitcoin.

Scrypt Wallet is not classified as a money transmitter, nor is it required to register as a Money Services Business (MSB) under the Bank Secrecy Act, because it does not control funds or conduct currency transmission or exchange on behalf of others. Our software enables users to self-custody, interact with decentralized applications, and conduct blockchain transactions without surrendering control of their private keys or digital assets to Scrypt Wallet or any of its affiliates.

Note: If in the future, any Scrypt Wallet features are introduced that could involve stored value, fiat transmission, or custody on behalf of users, we will undergo appropriate licensing and registration reviews and communicate any changes transparently to users.

Scrypt Wallet is not regulated or reviewed by any financial regulatory body, and use of the platform does not constitute investment advice or fiduciary support.
You assume all risk associated with your use of blockchain networks, digital asset volatility, and smart contract interactions. These risks include, but are not limited to, loss of funds due to private key mismanagement, malicious token contracts, protocol changes, regulatory actions, market crashes, price slippage, and technological vulnerabilities (including future developments like quantum computing).
You must securely store your own recovery phrase or private key. Scrypt Wallet cannot recover lost credentials and is not liable for any resulting asset loss.
