Description of the Protocol and Services
Blueberry is a lending and leveraged yield farming machine for risk management and undercollateralized borrowing using decentralized finance on the Ethereum blockchain.
General Agreement
By accessing or using the Protocol and/or Services, you agree that you have read, understood and accept all of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement as well as our Privacy Policy. You also represent that you have the legal authority to accept these Terms on behalf of yourself and any party you represent in connection with your use of the Protocol and Services. If you are an individual who is entering into these Terms on behalf of an Organization, you represent and warrant that you have the power to bind that Organization, and you hereby agree on that Organization’s behalf to be bound by these Terms, with the terms “you” and “your” applying to you, that Organization, and other users accessing the Protocol and/or Services on behalf of that Organization.
We may, in our sole and absolute discretion, without liability to you or any third-party, refuse to let you use the Protocol and/or one or more of the Services. Such actions may be taken as a result of a number of factors, including without limitation legal/regulatory requirements or demand, our discretion or your violation of the terms of this Agreement. We may also temporarily suspend your access to the Protocol and/or Services if a technical problem so requires.
Ownership and Control of Cryptocurrency
Title to your cryptocurrency shall at all times remain with you and shall not transfer to Blueberry. As the owner of your own cryptocurrency, you shall bear all risk related to the cryptocurrency in your wallet(s). Blueberry shall have no liability for value fluctuations of cryptocurrency. None of the cryptocurrency is the property of, or shall or may be loaned to, Blueberry.
Blueberry does not represent or treat any cryptocurrency in your wallet(s) as belonging to Blueberry. Blueberry may not grant a security interest in the cryptocurrency held in your wallet(s). Except as required by a facially valid court order, or except as provided herein, Blueberry will not sell, transfer, loan, hypothecate, or otherwise alienate cryptocurrency unless instructed by you. You control the cryptocurrency held in your wallet(s).
The Protocol is a purely non-custodial application, meaning you are solely responsible for the custody of the cryptographic private keys to the digital asset wallets you hold. This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create or impose any fiduciary duties on us. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you acknowledge and agree that we owe no fiduciary duties or liabilities to you or any other party, and that to the extent any such duties or liabilities may exist at law or in equity, those duties and liabilities are hereby irrevocably disclaimed, waived, and eliminated. You further agree that the only duties and obligations that we owe you are those set out expressly in this Agreement.
Wallets
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT (A) BLUEBERRY HAS NO CONTROL OVER ANY WALLET THAT YOU MAY USE IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE PROTOCOL OR SERVICES; (B) ALL WALLETS ARE PROVIDED BY THIRD-PARTIES; (C) BLUEBERRY HAS NO RIGHT OR ABILITY TO CONTROL THIRD-PARTIES WHO PROVIDE WALLETS; (D) ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ANY THIRD-PARTY WALLET PROVIDER IS BETWEEN YOU AND THAT THIRD-PARTY WALLET PROVIDER; AND (E) BLUEBERRY IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY ISSUES OR LOSSES CAUSED BY USE OF THIRD-PARTY WALLETS.
Security of Devices and Wallets
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of the device(s) that you use to access the Protocol. You are also responsible for maintaining the security of your wallet(s), and for ensuring that no unauthorized person has access to your wallet(s), any private keys, or any devices that you utilize in connection with the Protocol and Services.
We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your device(s) or your wallet(s).
It is your sole responsibility to provide accurate information to us. You are solely responsible for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of all information and materials that you provide to use in connection with your use of the Protocol.
Fees
The Ethereum blockchain requires the payment of a transaction fee (“Gas Fee”) for every transactionthat occurs on the network. The Gas Fee funds the network of computers that run the blockchain. This means that you will need to pay a Gas Fee for each transaction. Accordingly, you must ensure that you have a sufficient balance of cryptocurrency stored at your wallet to complete any transaction on the applicable blockchain before initiating such transactions. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you of any Gas Fees before initiating any services that require the use of the blockchain network.
You may be subject to certain additional fees and commissions, including fees imposed by Blueberry. While we do not currently charge for the use of any of our Services or access to the Protocol, we reserve the right to levy additional fees in the future, including fees for access to Information or service fees to support the operation of the Protocol. You agree to promptly pay such fees and commissions, as set forth on the Protocol and the transactions and services you receive, which we may modify from time to time. In the event that we add fees to the Protocol or any of our Services, we will alert you in writing prior to any such fees going into effect.
Cryptocurrency Transactions
You should confirm all information before you make any transfers to any third-party wallet. Blueberry will bear no liability or responsibility if you enter an incorrect blockchain destination address, incorrect Destination Tag/Memo, or send your cryptocurrency to an incompatible or someone else’s wallet. We do not guarantee the identity or value received by a recipient of an outbound transfer of cryptocurrency from the Protocol to third-party wallets.
Lending and Borrowing Terms
All of the Protocol’s code is novel and experimental. Please use discretion when depositing funds. While we have thoroughly reviewed our code, we are not liable for funds lost due to smart contract exploits. Moreover, crypto assets displayed on the Protocol are exposed to market fluctuations. Your capital might change due to price action and other external factors. Take note that price fluctuations also cause “impermanent loss” when dealing with liquidity pools.
A transaction on the Protocol may fail for several reasons, including without limitation a change in prices, order availability, or technical difficulties experienced by us, decentralized finance counterparties or Ethereum nodes. We make no representation or warrant that any transaction will be executed fully, or at all. We are, under no circumstances, liable for any loss or injury suffered by a failure of a transaction to complete properly or in a timely manner, including dispatching to the blockchain. Further, we are in no way responsible for notifying you of a transaction failure, although you are able to see any such failures on the Protocol. You have full responsibility to determine and inquire into the failure of any transaction which you initiate.
WE MAY REMOVE A CRYPTOCURRENCY FROM LENDING OR BORROWING ON THE PROTOCOL AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY REASON, WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE. You acknowledge that while we are using commercially reasonable methods to provide lending and borrowing functionality to you through our Protocol and Services, we do not guarantee that the Protocol or Services will be consistently available. You agree that you assume all risks and potential losses associated with cryptocurrency being removed, price fluctuations, or differences in actual versus indicated prices.
We operate as a Protocol provider and do not act as principal or counterparty with respect to any transactions entered on the Protocol. Strategies will generally involve usage of other Ethereum decentralized finance platforms. This will add a layer of counterparty risk.
You understand and acknowledge that we do not broker trading orders on your behalf. We also do not facilitate the execution or settlement of your trades, which occur entirely on the Ethereum blockchain. As a result, we do not (and cannot) guarantee market best pricing or best execution through the Protocol. Any references in the Interface to “best price” do not constitute a representation or warranty about pricing available through the Protocol or elsewhere.
You agree and understand that: (a) all trades you submit through the Protocol are considered unsolicited, which means that they are solely initiated by you; (b) you have not received any investment advice from us in connection with any trades; and (c) we do not conduct a suitability review of any trades you submit.
Taxes
It is your responsibility to determine what, if any, taxes apply to the transactions you make, and to report and remit the correct tax to the appropriate tax authority. We are not responsible for determining whether taxes apply to your transaction, or for collecting, reporting, or remitting any taxes arising from any transaction. We encourage you to speak with your personal tax advisor regarding the tax implications of your use of the Protocol and Services.
Third-Party Services
Blueberry may contract with third-parties, including those providing research analysis or other information related to the Protocol and Services to provide certain data, information, insights, analysis, and articles that are made available through the Protocol and Services, and may also provide links to third-party websites (or other online properties that are not owned or controlled by Blueberry) or services that are not under the control of Blueberry (collectively, “Third-Party Services”). In addition to these Terms, you may be bound by any additional terms required by providers of Third-Party Services. Blueberry makes no representations about, and accept no liability for, any Third-Party Services. Blueberry are not responsible for the accuracy or reliability of any information, data, opinions, advice, or statements contained in Third-Party Services, the services offered thereby or for their privacy and security policies and procedures.
Acceptable Use

Violate or assist any party in violating any law, statute, ordinance, regulation or any rule of any self-regulatory or similar organization of which you are or are required to be a member through your use of the Protocol or Services;

Otherwise attempt to gain unauthorized access to or use of the Protocol or Services, nodes or computer systems connected to the Protocol or Services;
Engage in any behavior which violates this Agreement or is otherwise deemed unacceptable by us in our sole discretion; or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to compliance with applicable law and any instructions posted in the robots.txt file located in the Protocol’s root directory, Blueberry grants to the operators of public search engines permission to use spiders to copy materials from the Protocol or Services for the sole purpose of (and solely to the extent necessary for) creating publicly available, searchable indices of such materials, but not caches or archives of such materials. Blueberry reserves the right to revoke such permission either generally or in specific cases, at any time and without notice.

You may be subject to due diligence procedures in your use of the Protocol or Services.

Risk Disclosures
Lending and borrowing cryptocurrency is risky and you should never lend or borrow more than they can afford to lose or pay back. The following list of risks associated with cryptocurrency, the Protocol, and Services is not exhaustive.
Risks of lending and borrowing cryptocurrency
Cryptocurrency prices are highly volatile and lending and borrowing cryptocurrency is extremely risky. In addition, factors beyond our control may affect market liquidity for a particular cryptocurrency, such as regulatory activity, market manipulation, the acts or omissions of the issuer of the cryptocurrency, or unexplainable price volatility. We may also determine it is in the best interest of users to suspend lending or borrowing a cryptocurrency for these reasons. By using the Protocol and Services, you accept the risk of lending or borrowing cryptocurrency. In entering into any transaction, you represent that you have been, are, and will be solely responsible for making your own independent appraisal into the risks of the transaction and the underlying cryptocurrency.
Our listing of a cryptocurrency does not indicate approval or disapproval of the cryptocurrency’s merits as an investment or a technology. We give no warranty as to the suitability of a cryptocurrency loaned or borrowed under this Agreement and assume no fiduciary duty in our relations with you. You must conduct your own due diligence when determining whether to lend or borrow a particular cryptocurrency. If you choose wisely, we will not share in any portion of your gains. Likewise, if you choose poorly, we will not bear any portion of your losses.
No brokering transactions or provision of investment advice
We provide an execution-only service. We do not broker transactions on your behalf, advise on the merits of any particular cryptocurrency, transactions, or associated risks, or provide any other financial, investment or legal advice in connection with the Protocol or Services. To the extent that we do provide data, post market commentary, articles, or make social media posts, the act of doing so is incidental to your relationship with us and such information may not be considered as investment or financial advice and should not be construed as such. ANY DECISION TO LEND OR BORROW CRYPTOCURRENCY IS SOLELY YOUR DECISION AND WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENT LOSS.
No promise of liquidity
We make no promises as to the timing or availability of lending or borrowing of cryptocurrency on the Protocol. We reserve the right to change, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Protocol or Services at any time and in any jurisdiction, without notice and without liability. This includes, without limitation, the absolute discretion to list and de-list cryptocurrency available for lending or borrowing at any time. We are not required to provide advance notice of delisting.
You acknowledge and agree that cryptocurrency and/or Services available in one jurisdiction may not be available, as applicable, in another.
No guarantee of continuous access to Protocol or Services
We do not guarantee continuous, uninterrupted or secure access to any part of the Protocol or Services, and operation of our site may be interfered with by numerous factors outside of our control, including regulatory reasons and issues with the blockchain. We will make reasonable efforts to ensure that transactions are processed in a timely manner, but we make no representations or warranties regarding the amount of time needed to complete transactions.
Indemnification and Release
Blueberry and its Associates, subsidiaries, parents, affiliates, service providers, and each of their respective officers, directors, agents, joint venturers, employees or representatives (collectively, the “Released Parties”), are not liable for any damages that may arise out of or in connection with your use of the Protocol or Services. This includes, but is not limited to, claims, applications, injuries, delays, direct loss, loss of investments, business, or profits, business interruption costs, loss of goodwill or business profits, loss of cryptocurrency, damage caused by your computer, computer software, systems and programs, and the data thereon or any other direct or indirect, consequential and incidental damages. In addition, the Released Parties are not liable for any losses incurred, either directly or indirectly through your use of the Protocol or any of its functions and features (collectively, all of the foregoing items shall be referred to herein as “losses”). The Released Parties are hereby released by you from liability for any and all losses. These limitations of liability apply whether the liability or losses are based on negligence, contract, tort, or any other basis, even if the Released Parties had been advised or should have known of the possibility of such losses.
You agree to indemnify and hold the Released Parties harmless from any claim or losses (including attorneys’ fees and any losses, fines, fees, or penalties imposed by any regulatory authority) arising out of your breach of this Agreement, or your violation of any law or regulation.
If you have a dispute with one or more users, nodes, issuers of cryptocurrency listed on the Protocol or other third-parties, you release the Released Parties from any and all claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.
Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PROVIDED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL BLUEBERRY, ITS ASSOCIATES, OR THEIR LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OFFICERS, OR DIRECTORS BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE PROTOCOL, ANY WEBSITES LINKED TO IT, ANY CONTENT ON THE PROTOCOL OR SUCH OTHER WEBSITES, OR THE SERVICES, INCLUDING ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PERSONAL INJURY, PAIN AND SUFFERING, EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF DATA, AND WHETHER CAUSED BY TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF FORESEEABLE.
