ABTU Token
Terms of Use
TGE Version, Comprehensive
1. Scope
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern all access to and use of ABTU tokens and related platforms, websites, and services (“Services”) provided by Abatis Security Innovations & Technologies GmbH (the “Issuer”). By participating in the Token Generation Event (“TGE”), transacting in, or redeeming ABTU tokens, all parties agree to comply with these Terms.
2. Eligibility & Geographic Restrictions
Participation is strictly limited to persons and entities who:
- Are legally permitted under applicable laws of their jurisdiction.
- Have successfully completed Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks in accordance with Swiss, EU, and UK standards.
- Are not residents/citizens of the U.S. unless qualified as “accredited investors” under SEC regulations and expressly approved by the Issuer.
- Are not residents, citizens, or entities in the People’s Republic of China, or any jurisdiction under UN, EU, or Swiss sanctions, or where digital utility token participation is prohibited.
The Issuer may, at its sole discretion, reject/revoke participation that fails any eligibility, KYC, or compliance check at any time.
3. Nature and Legal Status of ABTU Tokens
- Utility Only: ABTU tokens are strictly utility tokens. They confer no equity, debt, profit participation, dividends, voting, or governance rights.
- Non-Security Status: ABTU tokens are not, and shall not be construed as, securities or investment contracts under any jurisdiction.
- Functional Use: ABTU is redeemable for Abatis® cybersecurity licences at launch. Access to additional utilities (Aegis™ post-quantum protection, sovereign hardware, cyber insurance, regulated custody, MSSP services) is linked to project roadmap and subject to technical readiness and regulatory compliance.
4. Tokenomics, Sale Mechanics, and Use of Proceeds
Fixed Supply:
- Total: 1,000,000,000 ABTU minted once, permanently capped; no further minting or inflation.
Allocations (Token Distribution):
Vesting:
- All non-public allocations (team, advisors, treasury) are subject to lock-up and staged vesting as detailed above.
- Public sale allocations are released according to the published milestone schedule, ensuring supply and demand remain balanced.
5. Use of Proceeds
Funds raised from the Token Generation Event (TGE) will be deployed strategically to support ecosystem growth and ensure long-term token value.
Note on Staff & Employee Remuneration:
- Staff compensation is not directly allocated tokens, but funded from the Treasury & Operating Buffer portion of fiat proceeds.
- The Team Allocation (8%) in token distribution is reserved for founders, senior staff, and long-term employees under vesting schedules, aligning their interests with long-term success.
6. KYC/AML Requirements
Participation in the TGE requires completion and approval of all KYC and AML checks as set out under these Terms and as further detailed on the official website and onboarding documentation. Failure to complete or pass KYC/AML checks will result in exclusion or revocation of allocation with no liability for the Issuer.
7. Token Utility & Redemption
- Immediate Utility: ABTU tokens are immediately redeemable for Abatis® cybersecurity licences on launch.
- Roadmap Utility: Redeemable for new products/services (Aegis PQ protection, hardware, insurance, custody, MSSP) will become available as per roadmap milestones, technical readiness, and regulatory permissions.
- Redemption Mechanics: Detailed redemption terms, including any blackout periods, preferred discounts, and technical instructions, will always be published and kept current on the Issuer’s official channels. Redemption is subject to product/service availability and technical feasibility.
- Discounted Redemption Rights: For the first 36 months post-TGE, holders may redeem ABTU for applicable products/services at a discount:
- Years 1–2: up to 20% below fiat price
- Year 3: up to 10% below fiat price
- Year 4 onwards: full fiat-equivalent value, no further discount
- Redemption Flow: For every fiat licence sale to enterprises/OEMs, a 10% equivalent amount is redeemed in ABTU, ensuring continuous token utility, reducing supply, and supporting scarcity/value. These redeemed tokens are split between a public on-chain treasury (visible for transparency) and a strategic locked treasury for ecosystem incentives and project stability.
- Token Tradeability: ABTU tokens remain transferable/tradable at all times, subject to lock-up and vesting specified for particular allocations.
8. Technical Standards, Audits & Transparency
- ERC-20 Standard: ABTU is deployed on Ethereum mainnet, as an ERC-20 token. The official contract address and verified source code will be published and all allocations will be transparently tracked on-chain.
- Security Audits: All core smart contracts will undergo independent, third-party security audits prior to public transferability/liquidity. Audit summaries and full reports will be published before the TGE. All subsequent major upgrades will undergo new audits. Participants acknowledge that audits greatly reduce, but cannot absolutely eliminate, all vulnerabilities or bugs.
- Ecosystem Transparency:
- Real-time public dashboard showing treasury flows, token redemptions, major on-chain events, and supply changes.
- Public reporting of all material audit findings, incident disclosures, periodic ecosystem/treasury summaries (quarterly or biannual).
- Notification of all material changes to terms, smart contract deployments, or material incidents through official channels.
9. Acceptable Use
No participant may:
- Use tokens, platforms, or services for illegal or fraudulent activities.
- Circumvent jurisdictional or eligibility restrictions.
- Infringe on the Issuer’s or third-party’s intellectual property rights.
- Disrupt Issuer systems through malware, attacks, or introduction of malicious code.
10. Intellectual Property
All ABTU intellectual property, code, algorithms, content, branding, software, and materials remain the exclusive property of the Issuer or its licensors. No rights are licensed or assigned except as necessary for service use and token operation.
11. Disclaimers & Comprehensive Risk Acknowledgement
- No Warranties: All services, tokens, and websites are provided “as is” and “as available.” No representations, warranties, or guarantees of any kind (express or implied) are made by the Issuer or its affiliates.
- Participants Acknowledge Risks Including:
- Regulatory risk, including changes in law or enforcement actions in any relevant country.
- Liquidity risk, adoption risk, technology risk, competition risk, and security audit risk.
- Market volatility, limited resale or exit options.
- Smart contract/operational risk and possible vulnerabilities beyond completed audits.
- Cyber and insider threat risk. All system access is closely monitored and incidents will be transparently reported, but no system is absolutely immune.
- No Advice: Neither the Issuer nor its affiliates provide, nor should any information be construed as, investment, legal, or financial advice.
- Audit Limitation: Security audits, while rigorous, do not immunize against all future exploits, software bugs, or advanced persistent threats. All participants accept sole responsibility for their participation and usage.
12. Privacy and Data Protection
Use of Issuer services is subject to the Privacy Policy, available on the official website, which provides details of personal data collection, processing, and protection, including KYC/AML information.
13. Amendments, Updates & Notices
The Issuer reserves the right to amend these Terms at any time. Any material changes will be published on the official website and proactively notified to participants where appropriate. Continued use of the Services post-amendment constitutes acceptance of changes. Where required by law, direct consent to updated terms may be required.
14. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Swiss law. All disputes, controversies, or claims shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts in Zurich, Switzerland. At the Issuer’s discretion, disputes may alternatively be referred to binding arbitration under Swiss Chambers’ rules.
15. Regulatory Status & Commitments
As of publication, ABTU is not yet regulated by FINMA or any other regulator. However, the Issuer is committed to continuous engagement with relevant authorities (including FINMA in Switzerland) and will transparently update participants regarding changes in legal status, licensing, and all compliance milestones. The project is designed for maximum compliance and transparency; regulatory frameworks may evolve and all participants agree to accept resulting changes to process or eligibility as needed.
