The Customer represents that Customer understands and agrees that the Company is not responsible for any diminished Services, related features, or capabilities resulting from blockchain network risk. As provided in Section 1.4 (Hash Rate Output), in the event of a material increase or decrease to Blockchain Transaction Fees or operational degradation, congestion, failure or disruption otherwise of the blockchain network used by Customer, the Company may, at its sole discretion and upon notice to the Customer, increase or decrease the threshold to deliver the Customer’s Hash Rate Output.

3.6. BLOCKCHAIN MODIFICATION RISK.

The Customer represents and warrants that the Customer is familiar with and accepts the risks associated with blockchain development and code changes, including the risks described in this Section 3.6. Blockchain technologies are still under development and may undergo significant changes over time.

Such changes may include or result in the elimination for support for and/or the efficient use of chips used by BIT3 MINING. In addition, blockchain developers may also determiner to modify the cryptographic verification process such that the blockchains can no longer be verified through proof-of-work and instead adopt proof-of-stake methodologies.

3.7. PROOF-OF-WORK REPLACEMENT RISK.

In addition to blockchain modification risk, blockchain developers may also determine to modify the cryptographic verification process such that the blockchains can no longer be verified through proof-of-work and instead adopt proof-of-stake methodologies. Customer accepts and acknowledges that in circumstances where the protocol of a given blockchain used by the Customer has been modified to only use proof-of-stake methodologies, the Customer accepts such risk and shall allocate Customer’s hash rate to other available blockchains and output processes that use proof-of-work methodologies using the given algorithm for this Agreement. Certain blockchain algorithms at this time have no alternative blockchain applications that support proof-of-work output and any such switch from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake would result in no applicable use of Customer’s hash rate for the residual Term of the Agreement should such a protocol switch occur.
