SUPRABULLION — TERMS OF USE
Last updated: 2026-05-17
Please read these Terms before operating a SupraBullion node, registering a wallet,
or integrating the Software into any product or service. By doing any of those things
you agree to be bound by these Terms.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. DEFINITIONS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Software" The SupraBullion node software and all associated source code,
headers, scripts, and documentation in this repository.
"Node" A running instance of the Software on your hardware.
"Operator" Any person or entity that runs a Node.
"User" Any person that registers a wallet or submits transactions to
a Node, including the Operator themselves.
"Network" The peer-to-peer mesh of Nodes connected via port 4433.
"SupraSage" / The SupraSage Conglomerate, maintainer of the reference
"we" / "us" implementation and the optional central peer registry at
suprabullion.com.
"Gateway" A third-party payment processor integrated into the Software
(Stripe, PayPal, MoonPay, MoneyGram, Flutterwave).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. LICENSE AND PERMITTED USE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Software is distributed under the terms of the license file included in this
repository (see LICENSE if present; otherwise, all rights reserved by SupraSage).
These Terms supplement — and do not replace — that license.
Subject to these Terms you may:
a) Run a Node for personal, research, or commercial purposes.
b) Integrate the REST API (port 8888) into your own applications.
c) Deploy smart contracts on your Node using the embedded QuickJS engine.
d) Fork or modify the source for your own node operations, provided you comply
with the underlying license and do not remove attribution notices.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. PROHIBITED USES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You must not use the Software or Network to:
a) Process, facilitate, or conceal transactions involving proceeds of crime,
terrorism financing, human trafficking, or any activity prohibited by
applicable law.
b) Circumvent any sanction, embargo, or financial control imposed by a
competent government authority.
c) Operate a Node in a jurisdiction where doing so is unlawful without first
obtaining all required licenses, registrations, and approvals.
d) Impersonate another node operator or fabricate peer identifiers.
e) Conduct denial-of-service attacks against the Network or against any Gateway.
f) Intentionally propagate malformed blocks or corrupt consensus on the Network.
g) Deploy smart contracts that exfiltrate, corrupt, or destroy data outside
their authorized scope, or that interfere with other users' wallets without
explicit permission.
h) Use the Software to process financial transactions on behalf of persons under
the age of 18.
i) Reverse-engineer, extract, or exploit the cryptographic implementation to
decrypt OPAQUE receipts that you do not own.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. FINANCIAL COMPLIANCE OBLIGATIONS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SupraBullion is software infrastructure. It does not hold a money-transmitter
license, a virtual asset service provider registration, or any equivalent financial
authorization on your behalf.
If you operate a Node that processes transactions for third parties, you are solely
responsible for:
- Determining whether your operations require a money-transmitter license, VASP
registration, or equivalent in your jurisdiction.
- Performing KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) checks
required by your jurisdiction before accepting funds.
- Complying with OFAC, FinCEN, FATF, and all other applicable financial
regulations.
- Filing any required tax disclosures for coin issuance, gains, or payments.
SupraSage provides no legal, tax, or financial advice. Consult qualified
professionals in your jurisdiction before operating a commercial Node.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. GATEWAY TERMS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Integration with each Gateway is governed by that Gateway's own terms of service,
which you must separately accept:
- Stripe: stripe.com/legal
- PayPal: paypal.com/legalhub
- MoonPay: moonpay.com/terms
- MoneyGram: moneygram.com/terms
- Flutterwave: flutterwave.com/terms
You are responsible for maintaining valid sandbox or production credentials for
each Gateway you enable, and for ensuring your usage complies with those terms.
SupraSage is not liable for Gateway downtime, regional payment method restrictions
(including MoonPay's state-by-state licensing in the United States), transaction
reversals, or account suspensions by any Gateway.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. PEER NETWORK PARTICIPATION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When your Node joins the Network it exchanges peer lists, block data, and Merkle
proofs with other Nodes. By joining the Network you acknowledge that:
a) Your Node's IP address, port numbers, username, and description are
propagated to other peers and may be stored by them.
b) Block data you contribute to consensus is replicated across all participating
peers and cannot be retracted.
c) The Network is decentralised; SupraSage does not control other operators'
nodes and cannot compel deletion of replicated data.
d) Peer tier advancement (BULL → BRONZE → SILVER → GOLD → DIAMOND → MANNA) is
computed by each Node independently based on observed transaction success
rates and confers no legal rights or obligations.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. SMART CONTRACTS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Smart contracts are JavaScript programs stored in the system.contracts collection
and executed by an embedded QuickJS runtime. Each contract has access only to the
dbQuery() bridge (read/write the local NoSQL database) and pure JavaScript. No
network access, filesystem access, or external system calls are available inside
the sandbox.
You are solely responsible for:
- The correctness and security of contract code you deploy.
- Any financial consequences arising from a contract that rejects, modifies, or
incorrectly routes transactions.
- Ensuring deployed contracts do not violate applicable law or these Terms.
SupraSage provides no warranty that a deployed contract will execute as intended
across all Node software versions or hardware configurations.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. CRYPTOGRAPHIC TRANSPARENCY AND IMMUTABILITY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Receipts designated CLEAR or GOSSAMER at mint time disclose some or all transaction
fields to any peer participating in consensus. This disclosure is irrevocable once
a block is mined. You acknowledge that:
a) Selecting CLEAR transparency makes transaction details permanently visible on
every Node that holds a copy of the block.
b) OPAQUE receipts are encrypted with RSA or AES-GCM/CCM; the security of OPAQUE
receipts depends on the security of your key material.
c) SupraSage does not escrow, recover, or reset private keys. Loss of your
private key means permanent loss of access to OPAQUE receipt contents and
any wallet balance locked to that key.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
SUPRASAGE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT:
- THE SOFTWARE WILL OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION OR ERROR;
- BLOCKS MINED ON A SINGLE NODE WILL BE ACCEPTED BY THE BROADER NETWORK;
- GATEWAY INTEGRATIONS WILL REMAIN COMPATIBLE WITH FUTURE GATEWAY API CHANGES;
- THE CRYPTOGRAPHIC ALGORITHMS USED WILL REMAIN UNBROKEN OVER THE LIFETIME OF
YOUR DATA.
USE OF THE SOFTWARE FOR FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, SUPRASAGE AND ITS CONTRIBUTORS
SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR
PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF FUNDS, LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION,
OR REGULATORY PENALTIES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE,
EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
IN NO EVENT SHALL SUPRASAGE'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY EXCEED THE GREATER OF
(a) USD $100 OR (b) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO SUPRASAGE (IF ANY) IN THE TWELVE
MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. IN THOSE JURISDICTIONS THE
ABOVE LIMITATIONS APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11. INDEMNIFICATION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless SupraSage and its contributors
from any claim, demand, loss, liability, or expense (including reasonable attorneys'
fees) arising from:
a) Your operation of a Node, including any regulatory action against your Node.
b) Transactions processed through your Node on behalf of third parties.
c) Smart contracts you deploy.
d) Your violation of these Terms or any applicable law.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12. MODIFICATIONS TO THE SOFTWARE AND TERMS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SupraSage may release updated versions of the Software. Older Node versions may
become incompatible with the Network as the protocol evolves. You are responsible
for keeping your Node software current.
These Terms may be updated at any time. The "Last updated" date at the top
indicates the most recent revision. Continued operation of a Node after an update
constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
13. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the SupraSage
Conglomerate is established, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any
dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the Software shall first be
submitted to good-faith negotiation. If negotiation fails within 30 days, disputes
shall be resolved by binding arbitration under rules mutually agreed upon by the
parties, or, if no agreement is reached, by a court of competent jurisdiction in
SupraSage's home jurisdiction.
Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking emergency injunctive
relief to protect intellectual property or prevent irreparable harm.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14. SEVERABILITY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, that provision shall be
modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining
provisions shall continue in full force.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
15. ENTIRE AGREEMENT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These Terms, together with the PRIVACY notice and the Software license, constitute
the entire agreement between you and SupraSage regarding the Software and supersede
all prior understandings, representations, or agreements on the same subject.
