• Ensuring proper supervision from commercial, regulatory, and compliance perspectives;
• Maintaining confidentiality of Client information.
13.6 Identification of Conflicts
Conflicts of interest may arise when:
• The interests of Clients and Coinut diverge; and
• Coinut’s interests could be prioritized over Clients’ interests.
Material conflicts are those that could reasonably affect Client decisions or Coinut’s operations. Coinut employees, officers, and directors, as well as contractors working on behalf of Coinut, are required to follow all applicable conflict-related policies.
13.7 Governance Structure and Compliance Oversight
Coinut maintains a robust governance framework with quarterly board meetings to assess the operational soundness of its marketplace. These meetings are attended by the Board, senior management, and relevant stakeholders to ensure comprehensive oversight of key issues including matters relating to the safeguarding of customers’ assets. Senior management supported by the Compliance Officer (“CO”), is responsible for governance and compliance, with regular reporting to the Board of Directors (“BOD”).
13.8 Affiliate Support Services
For non-client-facing functions, such as finance, legal, and technology, Coinut relies on operational support from its affiliates. These affiliates provide essential back-end services that contribute to the overall effectiveness of Coinut’s operations.
13.9 Safeguarding of Customer Assets and Conflict of Interest Controls
Coinut is committed to implementing effective controls to mitigate potential conflicts of interest, particularly those involving personnel responsible for safeguarding customer assets. Safeguarding personnel report directly to the BOD including senior management who are based in Singapore, ensuring that any issues related to customer asset protection can be escalated without interference.
13.10 Separation of Duties and Conflict Mitigation
Coinut enforces strict separation of duties to prevent conflicts of interest that could compromise the safeguarding of customer assets. This includes custody measures to ensure that personnel involved in investment, trading or other discretionary decisions do not result in the transfer or disposal of customers’ assets.
13.11 Confidentiality
All Coinut personnel are bound by strict internal confidentiality policies, ensuring that client information is only disclosed on a need-to-know basis and in compliance with regulatory requirements.
13.12 Personal Dealings and Conflict Reporting
Personnel are trained to identify and report any potential conflicts of interest. Should personal dealings or outside business activities present a conflict, Coinut takes steps to mitigate the conflict or deny approval for the activity.
13.13 Availability of Conflict Management Policies
Coinut’s conflict management policy is available to all personnel and is published on the company’s website under the “Policies” section, ensuring full transparency.
13.14 Staff Training and Awareness
All directors, officers, and employees receive annual training on conflict-of-interest matters, tailored to their roles. This ensures that they are equipped to recognize and address conflicts effectively.

- In light of the aforementioned security safeguards which Coinut has implemented, you acknowledge and agree that Coinut has taken all reasonable efforts to ensure the security of your Crypto Assets. Accordingly, you agree not to hold Coinut liable for any failure, losses or damages which may arise due to matters beyond its reasonable control. (i.e. a compromise in Coinut’s security safeguards by unauthorised parties, hacker attacks, unscheduled downtimes, database failure, Accepted Cryptocurrencies transfer or Accepted Cryptocurrencies storage failure, or other failures or malfunctions which cannot be attributable to Coinut).
14.1.3 You can submit a request to withdraw an Accepted Cryptocurrency from your Account at any time to any of your designated Accepted Cryptocurrencies addresses. As we will manually verify and process all withdrawals of Accepted Cryptocurrencies by Members, we may take up to 3 Business Days to process your withdrawal request.

For the avoidance of doubt, this shall include a situation where a technical failure arises in the protocol of the relevant Accepted Cryptocurrency.
14.1.4 You agree that it is your sole responsibility to provide us with the accurate withdrawal details (i.e. withdrawing address) when withdrawing your Accepted Cryptocurrency from your Account. You agree that Coinut shall not be held liable for any claims, losses or damages which may arise as a result of your failure to receive the Accepted Cryptocurrencies which you have withdrawn, due to your provision of any incorrect and/or outdated withdrawal details.

15.2 Transaction Process
15.2.1 A Coinut Swap transaction involves the Member agreeing to a quoted price and quantity specified by the Member. Once the Member confirms the trade, the corresponding balance in the Member's Account is transferred to an Account held by Coinut ("Coinut Account"). Coinut will then transfer the agreed-upon Asset back to the Member's Account.
15.3 Pricing and Settlement
15.3.1 The prices offered for swaps are determined by Coinut based on prevailing market conditions. The agreed-upon Asset is transferred promptly upon successful completion of the transaction.
16. Terms of Services in relation to Wrapped Litecoin®
These terms of services in relation to WLTC® constitute an addendum to the General Terms of Services and Exchange Terms of Services between you and Coinut, and this addendum governs the use of WLTC® related services.
For the avoidance of doubt, Coinut is the issuer of the WLTC®. All Members of https://wrappedlitecoin.org are required to be successfully onboarded as a customer of Coinut before they can perform any activities. WLTC will be an ERC20 token issued on the Ethereum blockchain and pegged to Litecoin on a 1:1 basis. WLTC® will enable Litecoin to be used for purposes such as staking, DeFi lending, and trading. In order to obtain WLTC®, a Member shall transfer an amount of Litecoins, inclusive of a fee, to Coinut through the Exchange. Coinut will then mint the same amount of WLTC® on the Ethereum blockchain and transfer it to the Member. A WLTC® holder may redeem their WLTC® for Litecoins, whereby the WLTC® holder will transfer an amount of WLTC® to Coinut and the Coinut will then burn the WLTC® and transfer the same amount of Litecoins to the Member subject to deducting a fee from the same.
16.1 Service Overview
16.1.1 The below describes the overview of the transaction process in relation to WLTC®:
- The Token will be an ERC20 token issued on the Ethereum blockchain and pegged to Litecoin on a 1:1 basis.
- The Token will enable Litecoin to be used for purposes such as staking, DeFi lending, and trading.
- In order to obtain the Tokens, a Member will transfer an amount of Litecoins, inclusive of a fee, to the Company through the Exchange. The Company will then mint the same amount of Tokens on the Ethereum blockchain and transfer it to the Member.
- A Token holder may exchange their Tokens for Litecoins, whereby the Token holder will transfer an amount of Tokens to the Company and the Company will then burn the Tokens and transfer the same amount of Litecoins to the Member subject to deducting a fee from the same.
16.2 Risk Disclosure Statement for WLTC®
16.2.1 Smart Contract Security Risks
16.2.1.1 Vulnerability to Exploits: The WLTC® system heavily relies on the security of its smart contracts. Any vulnerability in the contract code could be exploited, leading to the theft of WLTC® or underlying Litecoin (LTC) assets.
16.2.1.2 Immutable Contracts: Once deployed, smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain are immutable. If a critical flaw is discovered post-deployment, it cannot be rectified without creating a new contract and migrating all assets, a process that could be complex and risky.
16.2.2 Cross-Chain Interoperability and Performance
16.2.1 Blockchain Congestion: Both the Litecoin and Ethereum networks experience periods of high congestion, leading to increased transaction fees and delayed confirmations. Such issues can adversely affect the functionality and Member experience of WLTC®.
16.2.2 Network Congestion on Blockchain Networks:
- Increased Transaction Costs: During periods of congestion, gas fees on the host blockchain can rise significantly. This can deter Members from transacting with WLTC® during peak times, potentially reducing liquidity and limiting functionality.
- Delayed Transaction Times: Transactions involving WLTC® will face longer confirmation times.
- Impaired Functionality in DeFi: Congestion can severely disrupt activities, including collateralization, loan repayments, and liquidity provisioning.
- Arbitrage Inefficiencies: Congestion can lead to missed opportunities and inefficiencies because arbitrage often depends on the ability to quickly capitalize on price differences. Delays caused by congestion can erase potential profits.
16.3 Custody and Centralization Concerns
16.3.1 Custodian Trust: WLTC® operates with a centralized custodian model, based on vendors including Fireblocks and Coinbase Trust, where Coinut holds the actual LTC. Members must trust this custodian to securely manage the LTC and to act honestly in the minting and burning processes of WLTC®.
16.3.2 Single Point of Failure: The custodian's security measures become a critical point of failure. Should the custodian's systems be compromised, the underlying LTC could be stolen, potentially collapsing the value of WLTC®.
16.4. Fees:
16.4.1 Fees associated with Wrapped Litecoin may be found here.
