Risk Disclosure

GitElys enables permissionless tokenization of public GitHub repositories and trading on Uniswap v4. Trading these tokens involves significant risk. You can lose all of the funds you commit. Read this disclosure carefully before using the protocol.

1. Total loss is possible and common

Tokens launched on GitElys have no intrinsic value, no claim on the underlying repository, no revenue rights, no enforceable promise of any kind. The price you see is whatever the next buyer is willing to pay. For most launched tokens, that price will go to near-zero. Treat any funds committed as money you are willing to lose entirely.

2. No relationship to the underlying repository

A GitElys token associated with a GitHub repository:

• Does not give you ownership of the repository
• Does not give you license rights to the code
• Does not give you any claim on the maintainer's time or output
• Does not represent any future revenue, royalty, or distribution
• Is not endorsed by the repository owner unless explicitly stated

If a repository becomes archived, deleted, renamed, or transferred, the corresponding token is unaffected on-chain but its perceived value may collapse.

3. Volatility and illiquidity

Most tokens launched on the protocol are extremely thinly traded. Prices can move tens or hundreds of percent in a single transaction. You may be unable to exit a position at any reasonable price, or at all. Slippage on small pools can exceed 50% on a single trade.

4. Pool liquidity

Tokens launch on Montra with their whole supply placed in a single Uniswap v4 pool as one locked position, from the opening price upward. There is no bonding curve and no migration; the pool is the token's only built-in market. Early on, liquidity is thin by design. This means:

• The first buys move the price aggressively upward.
• If the first buyer immediately sells back, they may lose to slippage and fees, even with no other activity.
• A pool may carry an anti-snipe fee: for its first seconds or minutes, buys pay a fee of up to 99%, falling to the pool's fee tier. Check the fee before you buy.

5. Smart contract risk

GitElys is an interface over the Montra launchpad on Elysium, a chain operated by Kinetiq that settles to HyperEVM. GitElys owns no contracts and has not audited Montra's; treat them as unaudited unless Montra publishes audit reports. Smart contracts can contain bugs that lead to loss of funds. Trading uses Uniswap v4 and inherits any risk in the v4 contracts and in the Elysium chain itself.

GitElys cannot pause, upgrade, or reverse anything in Montra's contracts. The website may surface warnings, but on-chain contracts remain accessible to anyone with a wallet.

6. Front-running, MEV, and adversarial actors

Transactions sent to Elysium through the Montra RPC are posted to Elysium's inbox on HyperEVM, where they wait in public — usually under 30 seconds, sometimes minutes — before Elysium runs them. Anyone watching can read them in that time, and the few parties with direct access to Elysium's sequencer could trade ahead of them. Bots may front-run, sandwich, or back-run your transactions, costing you in slippage. The minimum output you sign for is what protects you: set slippage deliberately.

7. Wallet and key custody

You are solely responsible for the security of your wallet, your private keys, and your seed phrase. We have no ability to recover a lost wallet or reverse a fraudulent transaction. Phishing sites impersonating GitElys may target your assets — verify the URL before connecting your wallet, and never share your seed phrase with anyone.

8. Token symbol collisions and impersonation

Anyone can deploy a token referencing any public repository. Multiple tokens may share similar names, identical symbols, or impersonate well-known projects. Always verify the contract address before trading.

9. Creator fee claim risk

Creator fees can only be claimed by a wallet that has verified ownership of the corresponding GitHub repository. If GitHub OAuth is unavailable, if the repository is renamed or transferred, or if our attestation key is rotated, claims may be temporarily unavailable. We make no SLA on availability of the claim flow.

10. Regulatory risk

The legal status of crypto assets varies widely by jurisdiction and is subject to change. Tokens launched on the protocol may, in some jurisdictions, be deemed securities, commodities, or other regulated instruments. Regulators may take enforcement action against issuers, traders, or users. You are responsible for understanding and complying with the laws in your jurisdiction.

11. Tax

Trading, swapping, and receiving tokens may have tax consequences including capital gains and income tax. We do not provide tax advice or tax reporting. You are responsible for tracking your activity and reporting it to your tax authority.

12. Operator risk

The website, indexer, relayer, and supporting infrastructure are operated by humans. They can fail, be misconfigured, be targeted by attacks, or be taken offline. The smart contracts remain accessible directly on-chain regardless, but useful interaction may degrade if the operator-run infrastructure is unavailable.

13. Counterparty and bridge risk

If you bridge HYPE onto Elysium or use third-party services to acquire it, you take on the risk of those bridges and services. Withdrawals from Elysium back to HyperEVM take about six days. We do not endorse any specific provider.

14. No insurance, no recourse

There is no investor protection scheme, FDIC insurance, deposit guarantee, or fund-of-last-resort backing the protocol. If you lose funds for any reason — bug, scam, your own error, market movement — there is no party to make you whole.

Summary

• You can lose everything you put in.
• Tokens have no rights and no guaranteed value.
• Smart contracts are immutable; bugs are unrecoverable.
• Regulators may act in your jurisdiction.
• You are responsible for your wallet, your taxes, and your due diligence.

By using GitElys you acknowledge that you have read and understood these risks.
