1. Who We Are

Aevum Protocol Inc. ("Aevum," "we," "us," or "our") operates the Aevum Protocol — a verifiable performance layer that enables algorithmic trading strategies to be committed, attested, and verified on-chain. Our services include this website, the Aevum app at app.aevumprotocol.io, on-chain smart contracts deployed on Ethereum, and associated documentation.

3. Description of Services

Aevum Protocol provides infrastructure for on-chain strategy verification. Specifically, we enable:

  • Strategy commitment: Recording a cryptographic hash of a trading strategy on-chain prior to execution
  • Backtest attestation: Verifying that reported backtest results correspond to the committed strategy
  • Performance verification: On-chain attestation of live strategy performance via oracle infrastructure
  • $AEV token: A utility token used within the Aevum ecosystem

Aevum does not provide financial advice, investment advice, or brokerage services. We do not manage your assets, execute trades on your behalf, or guarantee any returns. Verification of a strategy's historical performance does not imply future results.

4. Eligibility and Restricted Jurisdictions

Our services are not available to residents of, or entities formed in, jurisdictions where the use of decentralized finance protocols, cryptocurrency, or related services is restricted or prohibited. This includes, without limitation, countries subject to comprehensive sanctions programs. It is your responsibility to determine whether your use of our services is lawful in your jurisdiction.

You are solely responsible for securing your private keys, wallet credentials, and any assets held in wallets you connect to our platform. We cannot recover lost keys or reverse on-chain transactions.

6. Intellectual Property

All content on this website and platform — including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, code, and smart contract architecture — is the property of Aevum Protocol Inc. or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
