XAR token functionality

The native digital cryptographically-secured utility token of the Arcana network (XAR) is a transferable representation of attributed functions specified in the protocol/code of the Arcana network, and which is designed to be used solely as an interoperable utility token on the network/protocol. XAR is a non-refundable functional utility token which will be used as the economic incentives which will be distributed to encourage users to contribute and maintain the ecosystem on the Arcana network, thereby creating a win-win system where every participant is fairly compensated for its efforts. XAR is an integral and indispensable part of the Arcana network, because without XAR, there would be no incentive for users to expend resources to participate in activities or provide services for the benefit of the entire ecosystem on the Arcana network. Given that additional XAR will be awarded to a user based only on its actual usage, activity and contribution on the Arcana network, users of the Arcana network and/or holders of XAR which did not actively participate will not receive any XAR incentives. XAR does not in any way represent any shareholding, participation, right, title, or interest in the Company, the Distributor, their respective affiliates, or any other company, enterprise or undertaking, nor will XAR entitle token holders to any promise of fees, dividends, revenue, profits or investment returns, and are not intended to constitute securities in Singapore or any relevant jurisdiction. XAR may only be utilised on the Arcana network, and ownership of XAR carries no rights, express or implied, other than the right to use XAR as a means to enable usage of and interaction within the Arcana network. In particular, it is highlighted that XAR: (a) does not have any tangible or physical manifestation, and does not have any intrinsic value (nor does any person make any representation or give any commitment as to its value); (b) is non-refundable and cannot be exchanged for cash (or its equivalent value in any other digital asset) or any payment obligation by the Company, the Distributor or any of their respective affiliates; (c) does not represent or confer on the token holder any right of any form with respect to the Company, the Distributor (or any of their respective affiliates), or its revenues or assets, including without limitation any right to receive future dividends, revenue, shares, ownership right or stake, share or security, any voting, distribution, redemption, liquidation, proprietary (including all forms of intellectual property or licence rights), right to receive accounts, financial statements or other financial data, the right to requisition or participate in shareholder meetings, the right to nominate a director, or other financial or legal rights or equivalent rights, or intellectual property rights or any other form of participation in or relating to the Arcana network, the Company, the Distributor and/or their service providers; (d) is not intended to represent any rights under a contract for differences or under any other contract the purpose or pretended purpose of which is to secure a profit or avoid a loss; (e) is not intended to be a representation of money (including electronic money), security, commodity, bond, debt instrument, unit in a collective investment scheme or any other kind of financial instrument or investment; (f) is not a loan to the Company, the Distributor or any of their respective affiliates, is not intended to represent a debt owed by the Company, the Distributor or any of their respective affiliates, and there is no expectation of profit; and (g) does not provide the token holder with any ownership or other interest in the Company, the Distributor or any of their respective affiliates. Notwithstanding the XAR distribution, users have no economic or legal right over or beneficial interest in the assets of the Company, the Distributor, or any of their affiliates after the token distribution. To the extent a secondary market or exchange for trading XAR does develop, it would be run and operated wholly independently of the Company, the Distributor, the distribution of XAR and the Arcana network. Neither the Company nor the Distributor will create such secondary markets nor will either entity act as an exchange for XAR.
