By accessing or using LightningEarn.com ("the Platform"), operated by [LLC_NAME], a [STATE] limited liability company, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"), our Privacy Policy, and any additional rules or guidelines posted on the Platform (collectively, the "Agreement"). If you do not agree, you must discontinue use immediately.

Your use of the Platform constitutes a legal agreement between you and [LLC_NAME]. By clicking "I Agree," creating an account, or otherwise accessing the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.

2. Description of Service

LightningEarn.com is a Bitcoin Lightning faucet and skill-based gaming platform that allows users to earn satoshis ("sats") through multiple methods, including:

• Faucet claims (periodic free satoshi distributions)
• Pay-to-click (PTC) advertisements
• Short link visits
• Offerwall completions
• Peer-to-peer (P2P) skill-based games, including but not limited to Blackjack and Slots

Withdrawals are processed via the Bitcoin Lightning Network or through FaucetPay.io. All earnings are denominated in satoshis (1 satoshi = 0.00000001 BTC). The Platform does not accept or process fiat currency deposits.

3. Eligibility

• You are at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher).

• You have not been previously banned or suspended from the Platform.
• You have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement.
• If you are a U.S. resident, you are not physically located in any Excluded State at the time of accessing skill-based gaming features.

This list may be updated at any time. It is your sole responsibility to verify whether participation is lawful in your jurisdiction.

6. Earnings, Fees, and Withdrawals

6.1 Earning.

All sats earned on the Platform are credited to your internal account balance. Earning rates, cooldown periods, and task availability are determined by the Platform and may be modified at any time. Earned sats have no guaranteed fiat value.

6.2 Withdrawals.

Withdrawals can be initiated once your balance meets the minimum withdrawal threshold. Withdrawals are processed via the Bitcoin Lightning Network or FaucetPay. Processing times may vary. We reserve the right to review, delay, or deny any withdrawal request that appears fraudulent, suspicious, or in violation of these Terms.

6.3 Fees.

The Platform may charge network fees or processing fees on withdrawals. All applicable fees will be disclosed before you confirm a withdrawal.

6.4 Referral Program.

Earnings from the referral program are subject to review and may be adjusted or forfeited if referrals are found to be fraudulent, incentivized, or self-generated.

6.5 Rate Changes.

We reserve the right to modify earning rates, cooldown periods, fees, minimum withdrawal thresholds, and any other economic parameters at any time. Material changes will be communicated via Platform notification or email.

6.6 No Guarantee of Value.

Satoshis are subject to market volatility. We make no representation regarding the fiat value of any sats earned or held on the Platform. You acknowledge that the value of Bitcoin (and satoshis) may fluctuate significantly.

7. Skill-Based Games

7.1 Nature of Games.

The Platform offers peer-to-peer (P2P) skill-based games where users may wager sats they have earned on the Platform. All games offered are designed such that the outcome is determined predominantly by the relative skill of the participants, not by chance. Games may include, but are not limited to, Blackjack and Slots variants with skill-based mechanics.

7.2 No Fiat Deposits.

All sats wagered in games are earned for free through Platform activities. The Platform does not accept fiat currency deposits or allow users to purchase sats for wagering purposes. This distinction is material to the Platform's classification as a skill-based gaming service.

7.3 Platform Fee (Rake).

A platform fee ("rake") may be deducted from game winnings. The current rake percentage will be clearly displayed before each game or wager. By entering a game, you accept the disclosed rake.

7.4 Escrow.

When you enter a game, your wagered sats are held in escrow until the outcome is determined. Once the outcome is final, the prize pool (minus the applicable rake) is credited to the winner's account.

7.5 Fairness and Randomness.

Game outcomes are determined by verified random number generation (RNG) and published game logic. We may provide provably fair verification tools to allow users to independently verify the integrity of game outcomes.

7.6 Finality of Outcomes.

By participating in any game, you accept all outcomes as final. Game results will not be reversed except in cases of verified technical error.

7.7 Assumption of Risk.

You acknowledge that you play at your own risk. [LLC_NAME] is not responsible for any losses incurred during gameplay. You should never wager more than you are willing to lose.

7.8 Excluded Jurisdictions.

Skill-based gaming features are not available in Excluded States or jurisdictions listed in Section 3. Accessing these features from an excluded jurisdiction is a violation of these Terms and may result in account termination and balance forfeiture.

7.9 Anti-Cheating.

The Platform employs anti-cheating measures to ensure fair play. Use of any tools, software, or techniques to gain an unfair advantage is strictly prohibited and will result in account termination and forfeiture of all balances.

8. Responsible Play

We encourage all users to engage with the Platform responsibly. If you feel that your use of the Platform is becoming problematic, we encourage you to:

• Take breaks from gameplay.
• Set personal limits on time and activity.
• Contact us to request a voluntary self-exclusion from gaming features.

We reserve the right to limit or suspend access to gaming features for any user we believe may be engaging in harmful patterns of use.
