By choosing to delegate your digital assets to MS, you acknowledge that MS may participate in blockchain governance or blockchain consensus mechanisms as your representative, and that you understand that there are significant risks with the many novel technologies involved in Proof of Stake blockchain systems, which are often at the cutting edge of research.
You also acknowledge that there are significant risks that you may incur a loss of your digital assets when choosing to delegate them to MS, and that MS will not compensate you or be held liable for any losses incurred as a direct or indirect result of losses by any holder of digital assets choosing to use the validation services provided.

2. Obligations

2.1. Our Obligations.
During the Term (as defined below), we shall: (i) remit to you your share of Net Rewards as set forth in Section 3;
2.2. Your Obligations.
During the Term, you shall delegate your Tokens, as you elect from time and time, and you shall pay your taxes as set forth in Section 3.2. Unless otherwise set forth in the Applicable Terms: (i) there are no minimum or maximum number of Tokens you may delegate to us; and (ii) you may delegate or withdraw your Tokens at any time; provided, however, if you withdraw your Tokens during a period within which we have staked your Tokens in order to perform the Service, you will not receive any share of the Net Rewards with respect to such prematurely withdrawn Tokens.

3. Economic Terms

3.1. Remittance of Net Rewards.
We shall remit to you a percentage of Net Rewards directly attributable to your Tokens. The percentage and timing of such remittances: (i) vary by Supported Blockchain; (ii) change periodically; and (iii) are governed by the information posted on the Website on the date a remittance to you is due (not the date on which you delegated the Tokens to us). Unless otherwise set forth in the Additional Terms or agreed to in writing by the Parties, all remittances to you shall be in the same cryptocurrency in which the Tokens are denominated.
3.2. Taxes.
You are solely responsible for the payment of any applicable taxes with respect to your share of Net Rewards and for any other taxes resulting from the transactions contemplated herein. The Parties agree not to treat this Agreement as giving rise to a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. You are responsible for ensuring that you are aware of any tax consequences in your relevant jurisdiction. You hereby agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless us and our officers, directors, managers, employees, and agents from any and all liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) in connection with any such taxes and related costs, interest, and penalties. The characterization of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for U.S. federal income tax purposes is unclear, and accordingly the U.S. federal income tax consequences of delegating Tokens and the sharing of Net Rewards is uncertain. Neither Myrmidon Staking nor any of its agents shall provide any advice or guidance with respect to the tax obligations of the Delegator. You are strongly encouraged to seek advice from your own tax advisor to discuss the potential tax consequences of entering into this Agreement and the receipt of any Net Rewards.
3.3. Rewards Transfer.
Any transfer of Net Rewards to you shall be made to the wallet from which you delegated the Tokens to us.
