Risk Disclosure
Crypto and affiliate marketing carry real risk. Read this before you commit any USDT.
The headline risk
You could lose all the money you put in. SatNet is a marketing platform on a public blockchain. There are no guarantees. Past performance is not predictive of future results.
1. Crypto-specific risks
Price volatility
USDT is a stablecoin pegged to USD, but its peg has historically broken under stress. Partner tokens (when you buy partner deals) can move violently — gains of 1000% and losses of 100% both happen.
Wallet security
You hold your private key. We can never access it. If you lose your seed phrase, your NFT, earnings, and any USDT in your wallet are likely permanently lost. Back up your keys offline.
Phishing / scams
Bad actors will pretend to be SatNet support, admins, or partners. We never DM you first. We never ask for your seed phrase. We never ask you to "verify" your wallet. Anyone who does is a scammer.
Smart contract bugs
Our contracts are open-source and tested but not externally audited yet. There may be bugs we haven't discovered. A critical bug could result in loss of funds, frozen NFTs, or platform pause.
Chain-level risks
BNB Smart Chain could experience network outages, reorgs, or validator failures. Your transactions might fail or be delayed.
2. Affiliate marketing-specific risks
Earnings depend on real activity
You earn only when:
- People mint NFTs via your referral link (direct commission)
- People in your downline mint (matching commission)
- Your binary tree balances + grows (pair-match)
- Partner deals happen + your tree participates (deal commissions)
None of these are guaranteed. Many members may earn $0. The members earning the most are those who actively invite others.
Your downline is not yours forever
Members in your tree can sell their NFTs on the marketplace. When they do, the buyer inherits the position. Your sponsorship rights persist (you still earn from that position), but the original member may exit.
Network health
Pair-match earnings depend on your weaker leg's volume. If your network grows lopsided, your weaker leg earns nothing. If your network goes quiet, you earn nothing.
No salary, no fixed income
SatNet is not a job. You're not an employee. Commissions are not guaranteed minimum amounts. Some weeks you earn $0.
3. Partner deal-specific risks
Project failure
Partner projects can rug, fail, or abandon their roadmap. Our staged release (30/30/40 at D14/D30/D60) limits damage but doesn't eliminate it. You may lose the value of partner tokens you bought.
Token price drop after listing
New tokens often drop sharply after TGE (token generation event). You might buy at $0.05 and the token trades at $0.01 a week later.
Vesting locks your tokens
Most partner tokens are vested (e.g., 25% at TGE, rest linearly over 6 months). You can't sell what hasn't vested. If the project fails before vesting completes, vested but unreleased tokens may be worthless.
KYB voting is not a recommendation
Community KYB voting checks identity and basic intake. It does NOT mean Diamond/Crown holders endorse the project. Always do your own research.
4. Regulatory risk
The legal status of affiliate marketing, MLM-structured commissions, NFT memberships, and crypto in general varies by jurisdiction. Regulations may change. SatNet may be required to:
- Block your country
- Halt new memberships
- Comply with subpoenas + share data
- Pause specific features
You are responsible for knowing what's legal where you live. Some jurisdictions ban this kind of platform entirely.
5. Platform risks
Admin operations
Admin can: pause contracts, change tier prices, change wallet addresses, withdraw treasury funds (uncapped), recover lost NFTs. Admin cannot: change commission rates, exceed the 50% global cap, mint NFTs without payment. See /docs for full powers + limits.
Operator failure
Pair-match and pool payouts depend on the operator backend running daily. If our operator goes down, payouts queue. They settle when service resumes — no payouts are lost, just delayed.
Service availability
The dashboard, mint page, and API may go offline for maintenance, attacks, or other reasons. Smart contracts on BSC remain accessible directly via Etherscan/BscScan or any wallet — your USDT and NFT are safe on-chain.
6. Marketplace-specific risks
- NFT prices fluctuate based on perceived position value
- You may sell at a loss vs your original mint cost
- Once sold, the position transfers — no reversal
- Marketplace fees (1-5% by tier) reduce your proceeds
7. Not financial advice
Nothing on SatNet — marketing copy, dashboard UI, projected earnings estimators, partner deal previews — constitutes financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. Always consult qualified professionals.
8. Self-assessment
Before joining SatNet, ask yourself:
- Can I afford to lose 100% of what I'm putting in?
- Do I understand how blockchains, wallets, and NFTs work?
- Am I willing to actively invite others to earn from this?
- Have I read these risks and accept them?
If you answered "no" to any — please do more research before joining.
9. Acknowledgement
By minting a SatNet membership NFT, you confirm you have read this risk disclosure, understand it, and accept all risks of participating.
