These Terms of Use (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of the Spark Protocol, including all associated interfaces (web, the Spark Mini-App PWA, and any successor application), smart contracts, tools, and services (collectively, the "Platform"), operated by Spark DAO LLC, a Marshall Islands DAO LLC (MIDAO-10249-26) (referred to as "Spark", "we", "us", or "our").
By accessing or using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must immediately cease all use of the Platform.
Spark reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Platform after any such modification constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically.
Critical pre-acknowledgment: You acknowledge that the Platform is experimental, partially built using AI-assisted ("vibe-coded") development, and unaudited. You agree to assume that any capital you commit to, deposit into, transact through, or otherwise expose to the Spark Platform — including the Mini-App — may be lost in its entirety, with no recourse. See Sections 4.7, 11, 12, and 13.
"IdeaCoin" means any treasury-backed digital token deployed through the Spark Protocol, where the underlying treasury may be redeemable by token holders according to the specific parameters set at the time of creation. IdeaCoins are experimental digital assets and are not investments, securities, or financial products.
"Ideator" means any individual or entity that submits an idea for funding through the Spark Platform.
"Builder" means any individual or team selected through the Platform's governance mechanisms (including futarchy-based decision markets) to develop an idea that has been funded.
"VibeFund" means the community-driven funding mechanism through which Platform users may acquire IdeaCoins to fund ideas before a builder team is selected or assembled.
"Governance Mechanism" means any on-chain decision-making process used by the Platform, including but not limited to futarchy-based markets operated through third-party infrastructure such as Combinator.trade.
"Interface" means any web-based, mobile, PWA-based, or other user interface provided by Spark to interact with the Platform's underlying smart contracts and protocols.
"Mini-App" means the Spark Progressive Web Application (PWA) — a browser-installable, non-custodial application that provides access to certain Platform features, including IdeaCoin acquisition, decision market participation, the Spark Points system, builder proposal browsing, and an embedded non-custodial wallet with private-key export.
"Spark Points" means non-monetary, non-transferable, non-redeemable in-app credits used to gamify engagement with the Platform. Spark Points have no intrinsic value, no exchange rate, no redemption right, and no claim against Spark or any third party (see Section 4.6).
"Treasury" means the pool of digital assets held in connection with a specific IdeaCoin, managed through multi-signature wallets or equivalent on-chain mechanisms.
"Liquidity Pool" means any automated market maker pool, including pools on Meteora (DAMM v2), Omnipair (GAMM), or any other decentralized exchange infrastructure integrated with the Platform.
