Terms of use

The rules for mining, holding, calling the API and running a node on Siliq, in plain language.

EffectiveSeptember 17, 2026
OperatorSiliq
Minimum age18
Sections21

These Terms of Use govern your use of the Siliq website, its mining client, API, chat, render jobs, headless node software and related services (the "Service"), operated by Siliq ("Siliq", "we", "us"). By using the Service you accept these Terms and the Privacy Policy. If you do not accept them, do not use the Service.

This page states our rules for the Service. It is not legal advice to you.

01Eligibility and availability

  • You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter a binding contract.
  • You may not use the Service if you are located in, or live in, a country or region under comprehensive sanctions, if you are named on a sanctions list, or if you act for such a person.
  • The Service, $SILQ and tokenized equities can be restricted or unlawful where you live. You are responsible for following the laws that apply to you, including tax rules. We may block access from any jurisdiction at any time.
  • The Service is pre-launch software. Instruments, reward rates, ceilings, tiers and limits can change at any time, including at a cycle boundary.

02The Service

The Service includes:

  • Mining: GPU workloads that run in your browser for a fixed length, which our servers verify and, where eligible, reward.
  • Rewards: tokenized equities held by the SiliqVault contract on Robinhood Chain, paid through signed vouchers that you redeem yourself.
  • Inference: an OpenAI-compatible API and a chat. Miners' browsers and independent headless nodes serve open models. The model provider serves frontier models on your own provider key.
  • Render jobs, the headless node software and a public dataset of verified runs.

The documentation describes how these work. Where the documentation and these Terms differ, these Terms apply.

On the effective date, the $SILQ token and the vault contract are not deployed. Features that depend on them, including passes, paid runs, API keys and render jobs, start at launch.

03Passes, trial runs and tiers

  • Earning rewards requires a mining pass. You get one by signing a message with a wallet that holds $SILQ worth at least the minimum shown on the site, $25 on the effective date. Signing sends no transaction. A pass lasts 24 hours, and its tier is fixed by your holding when it is issued.
  • After launch, each network address may complete one free trial run. Trial runs are scored and shown to you. They are not paid and accrue no rewards.
  • Before launch, every run is scored and listed and none is paid. A pre-launch run creates no right to a later reward.
  • Siliq reads your holding again when each run starts; if it has fallen, the lower tier applies to that run. Siliq reads it once more when the run finishes, and a run that finishes while the wallet holds less than the minimum is not paid.

We may change minimums, multipliers and GPU limits. A change applies from the moment it is published on the site.

04Rewards and settlement

  • Our servers compute rewards from verified work, your tier and the governor rate, as described in the documentation. An amount shown before settlement is an estimate.
  • Rewards are paid from tokens the vault holds and from no other source. If the vault holds too little, rewards shrink or wait. Siliq has no duty to pay rewards from any other asset.
  • Every 6 hours, Siliq converts dollars owed into token amounts at the market prices it uses for that settlement and signs one voucher per wallet. You claim on chain and pay the network fee.
  • The governor and the per-token caps can reduce rewards in a cycle. A missing market price can reduce or skip a token's share for that cycle.
  • We may withhold, reduce or void rewards, before a voucher is claimed, for runs we believe involved manipulation, a modified client, automation that fakes work, several addresses used to avoid limits, or an error in our systems.
  • Rotating the settler key voids every unclaimed voucher signed by the old key. After a rotation we re-sign open vouchers for runs that remain eligible.
  • You are responsible for any tax on rewards you receive.

05$SILQ

  • $SILQ is a utility token on Robinhood Chain. Holding it at the required value lets a wallet take a mining pass and register a headless node.
  • Siliq does not offer $SILQ as a security or an investment. It carries no ownership, no voting right, no share of revenue or profit, and no claim on the vault, its assets or Siliq.
  • We make no promise about its price, liquidity or listing, or that its current use will continue. Siliq does not pay rewards in $SILQ.
  • On the effective date no $SILQ contract exists. An address posted anywhere before Siliq publishes it on this site and at @siliq on X is not ours.

06Tokenized equities

  • Rewards are stock tokens issued by a third party on Robinhood Chain. Siliq does not issue or control them and makes no statement about their issuer.
  • A stock token is not a share of the company it tracks. It gives you no voting rights and no direct claim against that company, beyond rights its issuer grants under its own terms.
  • The issuer's terms, eligibility rules and transfer restrictions can apply to you and can stop you from holding, moving or redeeming a token.
  • Prices move with markets and can fall to zero. A token can stop tracking its reference, trading can halt, and some payout tokens (EWY, SMH) track funds rather than a single company.
  • The companies named on Siliq do not sponsor, endorse or partner with Siliq. Their names and tickers identify the tokens we pay.

07Wallets, transactions and smart contracts

  • You control your wallet and its keys. Siliq never takes custody of your wallet, cannot recover a lost key and cannot reverse a transaction.
  • Signing a pass or node message sends no transaction. Claims, deposits and payments are transactions you send and pay fees for.
  • Blockchain transactions are public and permanent.
  • Smart contracts can contain bugs. SiliqVault has been tested by our own tests and has no external audit. The settler is a server-held key, and until ownership moves to a multisig, one owner key can move the vault's assets.
  • A third party runs Robinhood Chain. Outages, congestion or chain changes can delay or prevent a claim.

08Payments for API keys and render jobs

  • You pay in ETH on Robinhood Chain to the pay-to address published on the site, then sign the payment message with the sending wallet. Payments open at launch.
  • An API key needs at least 0.001 ETH and gives credits equal to the ETH sent × the ETH price in dollars at purchase × 1,000. A render job needs at least 0.002 ETH and buys 5,000 frames per ETH.
  • One transaction pays for one purchase. A payment sent to another address, or from a wallet that cannot sign the message, or already used, creates no key and no job.
  • Payments are final and not refundable, including for unused credits and undelivered frames, except where the law requires a refund.
  • A key is shown once. Siliq stores a hash of it and cannot recover it. Anyone who holds your key can spend its credits.
  • Siliq intends to convert payments into stock tokens for the vault. A purchase buys a service and gives you no right in the vault.

09Prompts, outputs and the API

  • Independent miners and node operators process prompts for open models on their own devices and can read the prompts and the answers. Do not send personal, confidential or sensitive data.
  • For frontier models, your prompt and your provider key go to Anthropic or DeepSeek for that request. Their terms apply and they bill you. Siliq does not store the key.
  • Outputs can be wrong, incomplete or offensive. Check them before you rely on them. A recheck shows that two GPUs wrote the same text and says nothing about whether it is correct.
  • Rate limits and lengths are set out in the documentation. We may change or suspend the free tier.
  • You are responsible for how you use outputs and for following the licence of each model you call.

10Running a headless node

  • You run the node software at your own cost and risk, on hardware you control, with a wallet whose key stays on your machine.
  • On the effective date, node work is not paid.
  • You will see the prompts your node serves. You must not store, share or use prompts or outputs for anything beyond serving them.
  • You must serve the model you declare from local weights and must not alter answers.
  • Node operators are independent. They are not Siliq's employees or agents. We may deregister any node.

11Acceptable use

You must not:

  • modify the client, or forge scores, adapter strings, run tokens, signatures or GPU work;
  • use several addresses, wallets or networks to get around rate limits, trials or tier GPU limits;
  • attack, overload, scan or disrupt our servers or contracts, outside good-faith security research reported through /support;
  • send malware, unlawful content, or content that sexualises minors, harasses people or infringes their rights;
  • impersonate Siliq, post fake contract addresses, or run scams under our name;
  • use the Service to break sanctions or any law.

12Intellectual property

  • Siliq and its licensors own the Service, its code, instruments, design and brand. We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the Service under these Terms.
  • You may download and reuse the open dataset for any lawful purpose.
  • You keep your rights in your prompts. You let Siliq and the workers that serve them process your prompts to provide the Service.
  • Company names and tickers belong to their owners and appear here to identify tokens.

13Third-party services

The Service depends on others, and their terms apply to your use of them. Siliq is not responsible for them.

  • Privy, for wallet connection.
  • Vercel, for hosting; Upstash, for data storage.
  • Robinhood Chain and its RPC providers.
  • Public market data providers, for stock, ETH and $SILQ prices.
  • Anthropic and DeepSeek, for frontier models on your key.
  • Hugging Face, which serves model weights to miners' browsers, and Ollama, which runs models on nodes.

14Risks you accept

  • Stock tokens and $SILQ can lose some or all of their value.
  • Contract bugs, key compromise and settlement errors can delay, reduce or cancel rewards.
  • Chain outages and network fees can make a claim late or cost more than it pays.
  • New laws or rulings can restrict the Service, $SILQ or tokenized equities.
  • A run holds your GPU at full load. It produces heat, fan noise, power draw and wear, and electricity can cost more than the reward. Stop a run if your device overheats.
  • The verification gaps listed in the documentation can let others earn more than their work.
  • The launch can be delayed, changed or cancelled.

15Disclaimers

  • The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, including merchantability, fitness for a purpose, non-infringement and uninterrupted operation.
  • Nothing on Siliq is investment, financial, legal or tax advice. Rates and estimates are not forecasts.
  • We do not guarantee any reward amount, any token price, or that the vault holds enough to pay.

16Limitation of liability

  • To the extent the law allows, Siliq is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost tokens, lost data or damage to hardware.
  • Our total liability for all claims about the Service is limited to the greater of what you paid Siliq in the 12 months before the claim and 100 US dollars.
  • Some jurisdictions do not allow these limits. There, they apply to the extent the law allows.

17Indemnity

You will compensate Siliq for claims, losses and costs that arise from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Service, your operation of a node, or your violation of a law or of someone else's rights.

18Suspension and termination

  • We may suspend or end your access, block addresses, wallets, keys or nodes, and void unclaimed rewards tied to a breach of these Terms, at any time.
  • You may stop using the Service at any time. Vouchers for runs that followed these Terms stay claimable on chain for as long as the vault and its signing key allow.
  • Sections on rewards already voided, risks, disclaimers, liability, indemnity and general terms survive termination.

19Changes to these Terms

We may change these Terms. The updated version carries a new effective date on this page, and we note material changes on the site and at @siliq on X. If you keep using the Service after a change, you accept the new Terms.

20General

  • These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and Siliq about the Service.
  • If a court finds part of these Terms unenforceable, the rest stays in force.
  • If we do not enforce a term, we do not waive it.
  • You may not transfer your rights under these Terms. We may transfer ours as part of a reorganisation or sale.
  • We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events outside our reasonable control.
  • The English version of these Terms controls.
