Terms of Service
Last updated: 2026-09-06
gord is a website in front of public smart contracts on the GIWA network. Using it means you accept these terms, so read them. If you do not accept them, close the tab. Nothing here promises you will make money, several things below cannot be reversed by anyone including us, and gord is not available to everyone.
Where the law where you live requires us to draw a term to your attention before it can bind you, these are the ones we are drawing to your attention: who may use gord, the risks you are taking, the as-is disclaimer, the limit of what we owe, your indemnity, the one year deadline for bringing a claim, and the law and the forum.
The short version
- You must be 18 or older, and gord is not for United States persons, for people in comprehensively sanctioned places, or for anyone a sanctions list names. The full rule is a few lines down and it is not decoration.
- Anyone can launch a token here. We do not review, vet or endorse any of them, most memecoins end at zero, and you can lose everything you put in.
- We never hold the funds you trade with. Your wallet holds them and you sign every transaction yourself. There is one exception, it is real, and it is the last item in this list.
- Every trade pays a fee, and part of that fee buys and burns a different token from the one you traded.
- A launcher can name any YouTube channel or X account as a token's fee recipient. That account is not asked and is not told.
- Binding a payout wallet to an account is permanent. No rebind, no recovery, no exception.
- Until a wallet is bound, we hold keys that could bind it. That is real power over unclaimed fees, and we are not going to call it trustless.
What cannot be undone
Most software lets you change your mind. These four do not, and you can reach all of them within a few clicks of arriving, so they sit at the front rather than at the bottom. Each has its own section further down.
- A milestone lock has no owner. No pause, no rescue, no admin key, not ours and not anybody else's. Lock the wrong amount behind the wrong milestones and nobody on earth can reverse it.
- A payout binding is permanent. The first wallet bound to a social account is the only wallet that account will ever pay, for as long as the contract exists.
- A designation needs no consent. Once a token names a social account, an identifier for that account is on chain and stays there, whether or not the account holder ever agreed, or ever heard of gord.
- Graduation liquidity is burned. The position seeded into the Uniswap V4 pool is burned as it is created, so nobody withdraws it: not the launcher, not us.
Behind all four sits the same fact. Anything already written to GIWA is written. We cannot reverse a transaction, cancel a trade, unmint a token or claw funds back, and neither can anyone else.
Who may use gord
You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into this agreement where you live.
gord is not offered to, and may not be used by:
- United States persons. That means anyone present in the United States or any of its territories, any citizen or resident of it, and any entity organised under the laws of any part of it, wherever that entity happens to operate.
- Anyone in a comprehensively sanctioned territory: North Korea, Iran, Syria, Cuba, and the Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine.
- Anyone named on a sanctions list maintained by the United Nations, the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom or the Republic of Korea, anyone owned or controlled by such a person, and anyone acting on their behalf.
- Anyone in a place where using gord would break local law, including where launching or trading a token like these is restricted or prohibited.
Every time you use gord you represent that none of the above applies to you and that no wallet you use here belongs to, or acts for, somebody the list covers. You agree not to use a VPN, a proxy, a relay, a borrowed wallet or any other means to disguise where you are or to get around a restriction or a block. We may block access at any time, without notice and without giving a reason, including by wallet address, by network location, or by declining to serve this interface at all.
Be clear about what a block is and is not. It prevents future access to this website. It does not and cannot reverse transactions already on chain, because nobody can do that. Losing access gives you no claim to a refund of fees already paid, to a payout, or to any other remedy.
The contracts themselves are deployed, immutable and open to anyone on the network. We did not build a door we can close, and we do not offer them to anybody this section excludes. If somebody reaches them without this website, they do so on their own account, without any agreement with us, and nothing we could write here would change what an immutable contract does when it is called.
What gord is
gord is an interface. The contracts behind it are deployed on GIWA, open to anyone, and they keep working whether or not this website does. Creating a token costs nothing but gas: no review, no approval, no relationship with us. A token appearing on the board means somebody paid for a transaction.
We do not run the GIWA network. It is an Ethereum layer 2 operated by other people, with its own sequencer, its own bridge and its own failure modes, and we are not affiliated with its operators. If it halts, reorganises or refuses your transaction, that is outside our control and outside this agreement.
We do not custody what you trade. Your wallet holds your assets, you sign every transaction, and we cannot move, freeze or recover them. There is exactly one place where keys we hold matter, it concerns fees nobody has claimed yet rather than anything you own, and it has its own section below.
What gord is not
Nothing here is an offer of a security, an investment, a fund or a managed product. A token launched on gord is not a share, a note, a deposit, a unit in a scheme, or a claim on anybody's assets or revenue. Nobody manages it, nobody is working on your behalf, and no return is offered, projected or owed.
We are not a broker, a dealer, an exchange, a market maker, a custodian, an investment adviser, a money transmitter or a fiduciary, and we do not act for you in any capacity. We match nothing, hold nothing and decide nothing about your trades. You interact with a public contract, and this site is one way to reach it.
Nothing on gord is financial, investment, legal or tax advice, and nothing here is a recommendation to buy, sell or hold anything. Any tax arising from what you do here is yours to work out, report and pay, wherever you owe it. If you need advice, get it from somebody qualified where you live.
Fees, and where they go
A launcher picks one of two tracks at creation and it is fixed forever after. A meme token charges 1% of each trade. A creator token charges 2%. The same fee applies on the bonding curve and, after graduation, in the token's Uniswap V4 pool.
On a meme token the fee splits 20% to the platform treasury, 30% to the fee recipient and 50% to the buyback vault. On a creator token it is 10% to the treasury, 50% to the fee recipient and 40% to the buyback vault. A meme token's fee recipient stops earning at a ceiling, and past it their share goes to the buyback vault as well. That ceiling is a fixed amount of ETH, chosen when the token is created to be worth about 50,000 US dollars at that moment, and it never moves again, so its dollar value drifts with the ETH price for the rest of the token's life. A keeper retunes the figure new tokens are created with, inside limits set on chain, but no retune reaches a token that already exists. Creator tokens have no ceiling.
The buyback does not buy the token that paid the fee. It buys whichever three tokens hold the Main Runner slots, splitting its budget 60/30/10 between them, and sends every token it buys to a burn address in the same transaction. If your token is not a Main Runner, that share of its fees ends up buying something else. That is the design, not a leak.
A curve graduates once it has raised 6.5 ETH. The raised ETH and a reserved 20% of supply seed a Uniswap V4 pool, and the liquidity position is burned as it is created, so nobody can ever withdraw it. While a token is still on its curve the launcher can buy at most 10% of supply and every other wallet at most 2%. Those caps count net of sells, they dissolve at graduation, and they are per wallet, so they slow a monopolist rather than stop one.
Trading through 1-Click adds a separate 0.2% service fee on the ETH side of the trade, charged by the router rather than by the token and already inside the quote the panel shows you. It goes to the platform treasury. Trading from your own wallet does not pay it.
Designating an account you do not control
When someone launches a token they choose who collects its fee: themselves, another wallet, or a social account. The social option is a YouTube channel or an X account, identified by the platform's permanent id for it.
Naming an account needs no permission from that account, and the account is not notified. This is intended behaviour. A hash of the account id fixes the permanent address of a fee vault on chain, the id itself travels in plain text in the transaction that creates the vault, and fees accumulate there whether or not the account holder ever hears about gord. Designation is not an endorsement, an affiliation, or a claim that the account holder is involved in any way, and gord does not present it as one.
A launcher can also carve a slice of their own opening purchase out to a social account. Same rule, no consent and no notice. Nothing is minted for it; the tokens come out of a purchase the launcher already paid for.
If it is your account, you owe nobody anything. Fees can sit unclaimed forever, and that is a normal state rather than a problem waiting to be fixed. If you would rather no token carried your name or your likeness, the takedown route is further down, together with the plain statement of what a takedown can and cannot reach.
Binding a wallet: the parts that cannot be undone
Read this before you sign anything on the claim page.
- Binding is permanent. The wallet you bind receives every fee that account ever earns, from every token that ever names it. There is no rebind, no recovery, no support process and no override, and nobody can change it afterwards, ourselves included. Check the address character by character before you confirm.
- Never bind an exchange deposit address. Those addresses are not yours in the way this needs them to be, and money arriving there this way is usually gone.
- Verification proves current management access, not identity. It shows that someone who can administer the account today authorised a payout wallet. If your account is compromised, whoever holds it can bind a wallet they own, permanently. If several people manage one channel, the first to bind decides for all of them.
- Claiming pays everything at once. One claim sweeps the balance across every token that designated your account, including tokens you would rather not be associated with. There is no per-token claim.
- Anyone can trigger the claim. The function is open to whoever pays the gas. The money can still only reach the bound wallet.
- A reserved allocation is a purchase, not a gift. The bound wallet sends an exact amount of ETH fixed at launch, on the order of ten cents, and receives the tokens in the same transaction. Paying too much reverts, paying too little reverts, and only the bound wallet may pay. The ETH goes to the treasury, never to the launcher.
Until a wallet is bound, we could bind it
While an account's vault has no bound wallet, keys we hold can bind it to a wallet we choose. That is custody over unclaimed fees in all but name, and we will not describe it as anything less.
The moment a wallet is bound that power is gone. The contract refuses every later binding, and no key held by anyone can change the destination. What removes the power is the contract, not our conduct.
Each signing role has its own key, held in a managed key service that will not export it, so a compromise is scoped to one job. The contract reads its list of authorised keys live, which makes revoking one a matter of authorising a replacement and removing the old entry, never a redeployment.
The 1-Click wallet
1-Click trades from a burner wallet your browser creates, so a buy does not need a wallet prompt every time. The key is generated on your device and encrypted there. We never receive it and we cannot reproduce it.
That cuts both ways. Whatever sits in that wallet is exposed to anything that can reach your browser, and the storage holding the key is fragile: clearing site data, closing a private window, an in-app browser keeping its own container, or a browser evicting storage under disk pressure will each take it. Export the backup the panel offers, keep only what you are willing to trade with, and move the rest back to your main wallet.
You can also name your main wallet as the owner of a 1-Click wallet, and that owner can then pull the ETH and tokens out of it. That is loss protection, not theft protection. Whoever holds the 1-Click key can still drain the wallet or point the owner elsewhere, so the key is what actually guards the funds. Recovery needs a contract that is not live on every network, and the wallet panel tells you whether it is available to you. Where it is not, losing the storage without an exported backup means losing whatever is in the wallet.
Milestone locks
You can lock tokens behind market-cap milestones you write yourself. When a release is claimed the vault prices the token in that same block, from the bonding curve before graduation and from the token's own pool after it, and releases whatever your ladder says is due.
That vault has no owner. No pause, no rescue, no upgrade, no admin key, not ours and not anyone else's. The tokens can only ever go back to the wallet that locked them. You cannot lock to somebody else, because the vault has no field for it. Lock the wrong amount behind the wrong milestones and we cannot help you. Neither can anybody else.
Every lock has an expiry, and after it you can take back whatever the ladder has not released. Marking a lock permanent removes that backstop and nothing else: the milestones still pay out as the token reaches them, but the way back is gone. So if your ladder adds up to less than 100% of what you locked, the remainder of a permanent lock is unreachable by anyone, forever.
The price is read live, so whoever is claiming can move it. The vault caps the exchange rate it will accept, and the payee was settled at lock time, so a manipulator can pull a release earlier than the market deserves but cannot send it anywhere new.
What we can change, and what nobody can
Part of this system answers to a multisig we control and part of it answers to nobody. That line matters more than any promise we could make here, so this is where it falls.
We can change:
- Launch parameters for future tokens: curve size, buy caps, the fee ceiling. Tokens already created keep the settings they were created with.
- Where the platform's own share of fees goes. It takes two transactions 48 hours apart.
- Which Uniswap venue future graduations use: the PoolManager, our hook, and the contract that seeds the pool. That pointer decides where the liquidity from every future graduation is placed, so moving it takes two transactions 48 hours apart. The first venue registered on a network is the exception. While none is set there is nothing to retarget, so the first one takes effect as soon as we register it. Pools that have already graduated are never moved.
- Operational wiring: which addresses may trigger buybacks, which may attest Main Runner measurements, and the buyback vault's slippage and size limits.
- Which service contracts may move tokens on your behalf when you trade through 1-Click. That is one list, read live by every curve, so a change to it reaches tokens that already exist.
- Rejecting or delisting a Main Runner, always with a public reason written on chain. We cannot nominate one, shorten a timer, or choose a winner.
- What this website displays. We can stop showing a token here, which removes it from this interface and from nowhere else.
- Whether this website runs at all. We can change it, restrict it, suspend it or shut it down, in whole or in part, at any time, without notice and without owing anybody anything for it. The contracts do not need this site and keep working either way, which is the reason we can say that plainly.
Nobody can change:
- A token's pricing curve, its supply or its wallet caps, once it exists.
- A bound payout wallet, or the destination of a milestone lock.
- The burn address the buyback sends to, or the liquidity position seeded at graduation.
- Anything already written to the chain.
One consequence of that venue pointer is worth stating on its own. Until a venue is registered, a token that fills its curve stops trading. It holds at 100%, and nothing can be bought or sold on it, until we register one. gord launches on a new network with no venue set, because the Uniswap contracts the pointer names may not exist there yet.
Risks you are taking
None of the following is a remote possibility we mention for form. Each is an ordinary outcome on a product shaped like this one.
- Total loss. A token created here has no intrinsic value, no backing, no revenue and no promise attached to it. Most memecoins go to zero, many within a day, and yours can too. Never commit money you are not willing to lose entirely.
- Smart contract risk. Contracts can carry bugs, and an economic design can be exploited without a single bug in the code. These contracts have not been reviewed by a third-party auditor; until this page says otherwise in plain words, assume they have not been. A defect could drain a curve, strand a lock, misroute fees or halt trading, and there is no insurance fund, no reimbursement and no rollback.
- Network risk. GIWA is not ours. Its sequencer can stall, censor or stop producing blocks, the chain can reorganise, and the bridge between GIWA and Ethereum can fail, be delayed or be exploited. We are not affiliated with GIWA's operators, nor with Uniswap or any other protocol the venue may route through, and we cannot fix, speed up or compensate for anything that happens inside them.
- Price, liquidity and manipulation risk. Other users can and will trade against you. Your pending transaction is visible before it is mined, so somebody can buy ahead of it and sell into you. Launchers abandon tokens, sometimes the same day. Liquidity can be thin enough that a modest sell moves the price a long way, and wash trading, spoofing and coordinated pumps happen in markets like this one. We do not police the market and we cannot protect you from it.
- No guarantee of service. We do not promise availability, uptime, indexing accuracy, price accuracy or chart accuracy. The indexer can fall behind, miss an event or show a stale number, and an outage can arrive at the worst possible moment. A figure on this site is a best effort, not a statement of account.
- No guarantee that an event happens. Nothing here promises that a token graduates, that a buyback runs at any particular time or size, that a Main Runner slot changes hands, or that a milestone releases when you expect. Those depend on trades, keepers, prices and a network none of us controls.
The interface is a convenience; the contracts are the truth. Where this website and the chain disagree, the chain governs. A balance, a price, a fee, a milestone or a claim is whatever the contract says it is, whatever this page happens to be displaying at the time.
Your side of this
- Your wallet, your keys, your signatures, your responsibility.
- Follow the law where you are. If launching or trading these things is illegal for you, do not do it here.
- Check every address, amount and confirmation before you sign. A transaction you signed is a transaction you made, whatever this interface showed you beforehand.
- Names, symbols, images, descriptions and links you submit must be yours to use and must not be illegal. Images pass an automated classifier before we accept them, and a classifier is not a person: it will be wrong in both directions.
What you must not do
- Manipulate a market. No wash trading, no trading between wallets you control to manufacture volume or price, no spoofing, no coordinated pump and dump, and nothing designed to make a token's activity, holder count or Main Runner standing look like something it is not.
- Launder money or deal for a sanctioned person. That includes moving the proceeds of crime, financing terrorism, evading sanctions or export controls, and using gord on behalf of anyone the eligibility section excludes.
- Put infringing or illegal content into a token. Names, symbols, descriptions, links and images all count. No trademark or copyright you do not hold, no sexual content involving minors, no non-consensual intimate imagery, no incitement to violence, no doxxing, and nothing else unlawful where it will be seen.
- Impersonate. Do not present yourself as another person, a project, an exchange, a public figure or us, and do not present a token as officially connected to somebody when it is not.
- Abuse the API or the site with automation. No scraping past the rate limits, no evading a bot check, no spreading load across addresses or networks to get around a limit, and nothing that degrades the service for other users.
- Interfere with the machinery. Do not attack, overload or attempt to manipulate the indexer, the keepers, the moderation gate or the site itself, do not spam events to distort what other people see, and do not probe for or use access to any system, key or account that is not yours.
- Help someone else do any of the above, or use gord in a way that puts us, our providers or other users in breach of a law or a platform rule.
If you break this section we can stop showing your token, stop serving you, and report what the law requires us to report, all without notice. What removal does and does not achieve is the next section.
Content, intellectual property and takedowns
What you upload stays yours. You are responsible for it, and by submitting it you confirm you have the rights to use it and that it breaks neither the law nor these terms.
You give that confirmation at one identifiable moment: the tick you make before you launch a token. It covers the logo and the links you attached, the licence in the next paragraph, and the account you named to collect the fee, whether or not that account has ever heard of you.
You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to store, copy, resize and display that content in this interface, in link previews and in listings of tokens, for as long as we show the token. The licence exists so the site can render your token. It transfers nothing else and we claim nothing else.
The gord name, this interface, its design and its code remain ours, except where an open source licence in the repository says otherwise.
If something here infringes your rights or is unlawful, write to abuse@gord.pro. Tell us what the content is and where it is, with the token address and a link; what right you hold and how you hold it; your name and a contact address; a statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorised by the rights holder, their agent or the law; and a statement that what you have told us is accurate and that you are the rights holder or authorised to act for them. We aim to respond within thirty days.
If we act on a notice we will tell the person who submitted the content what we removed and why, using whatever contact route we have for them, and they can reply to abuse@gord.pro to contest it. If they do, we pass what they say to the person who complained, and we may restore the content unless we are told the matter has gone to a court. Somebody who repeatedly launches infringing tokens loses access to this interface. None of this reaches the chain, for the reason set out immediately below.
Removal from this interface is not removal from the chain. We can stop showing a token here and stop serving an image we host, and we will where a notice is well founded. The token, its name, its symbol and the image URL written into its on-chain record stay on GIWA, readable in block explorers and usable by any other interface. We cannot delete them, and neither can anyone else.
As is, and the limit of what we owe
In this section and in the three that follow it, on your indemnity, on things outside anyone's control and on bringing a claim, we and us mean the operator of gord together with its founders, its people, its contributors, its agents and its service providers. Every disclaimer, exclusion and limit set out in those four sections is given for the benefit of each of them as well as of the operator, and each of them may rely on it.
gord is provided as is and as available. To the fullest extent the law allows we disclaim every warranty, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement, and any warranty that the service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, accurate, complete or error free.
To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost tokens, lost revenue, lost data, lost opportunity or the cost of substitute services, even if we were warned such a loss was possible. That covers losses caused by contract bugs, network failure, lost keys, price movement, front-running, a manipulated market, an outage, an indexing error, or the behaviour of other users.
Cap on direct damages. Our total liability to you for all claims taken together is limited to the greater of 100 US dollars, or the platform fees our treasury actually received from your own trades in the ninety days before the claim arose. Fees that went to a token's fee recipient or to the buyback vault were never ours and do not count toward that figure. Nothing in this limit excludes or limits liability that the law does not allow us to exclude or limit, including liability for our own intent or gross negligence.
Nothing here excludes or limits liability that the law does not allow us to exclude or limit. That includes liability for our own intent or gross negligence, liability for fraud, and liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, and it includes mandatory consumer protections where you live, which continue to apply whatever this page says.
Your indemnity
You will indemnify and hold harmless the operator of gord, its founders, its people, its contributors, its agents and its service providers against any claim, demand, loss, liability and reasonable legal cost arising out of your use of gord, the tokens you create, buy or sell, the content you submit, your breach of these terms, or your breach of the law or of somebody else's rights.
Things outside anyone's control
We are not liable for a failure or a delay caused by something beyond our reasonable control: a GIWA sequencer, bridge or node failure, a reorg, an Ethereum outage, a fault at a hosting, RPC, storage, CDN or monitoring provider, a change or a cut-off at Google or X, an attack on the network or on us, a power or internet failure, a law, sanction or order from a government, or an act of war or of nature.
Bringing a claim
Any claim arising out of these terms or out of your use of gord must be brought within one year of the day it arose, so far as the law where you live allows a period to be agreed. After that it is waived.
Disputes are brought individually. You and we agree not to bring or join a class action, a collective action, a consolidated action or any other representative proceeding, and not to act as a class representative, except where the law gives you a right to do so that cannot be given up.
Law, forum and who operates gord
gord is operated from the Republic of Korea. The operating entity is being formed, and this page will name it, with its registration details, as soon as it exists. Until then the operator is the team that publishes this site, reachable at the addresses below.
These terms, and any dispute arising out of them or out of your use of gord, are governed by the law of the Republic of Korea, without regard to its conflict of laws rules.
Any claim we bring against you, we bring in the courts of the place you live. Any claim you bring may be brought in the Seoul Central District Court as the court of first instance, and you may bring it instead in the courts of the place you live where the law there gives you that right. If the law of the place you live gives you consumer protections that cannot be contracted away, nothing here removes them, and nothing here overrides the ordinary rules on which Korean court has jurisdiction where those apply to you.
Reaching us
- Legal notices and general contact: legal@gord.pro
- Privacy questions and deletion requests: privacy@gord.pro
- Abuse, infringement and takedowns: abuse@gord.pro
We aim to answer legal notices and privacy requests within thirty days, and sooner where the law where you live sets a shorter deadline. Where a request is complicated, or where we have to check who is making it, we will tell you why it is taking longer. We are a small team rather than a support desk, and we will not promise faster than we can deliver. Nothing sent to these addresses can reverse a transaction or recover a lost key, because no message to anyone can.
Third parties
Claiming can use Google (for YouTube) or X. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Google, YouTube or X, their terms govern your use of their services, and their APIs can change or stop. gord therefore also carries a second proof that needs no sign-in: you publish a phrase we give you and we read it back. It grants us no permission over your account and no access to it. It does still read the platform, through public endpoints or our own API key, so a platform that cuts us off can hold up a claim either way.
The site runs on infrastructure we did not build: hosting, a CDN, an object store, the RPC endpoints your browser talks to directly, a wallet-connection relay and an image classifier. The Privacy Policy names them and says what each one sees.
The rest of the agreement
- Severability. If a term here is unenforceable, it is cut back to what is enforceable, or removed, and everything else stands.
- No waiver. If we do not enforce something once, we have not given it up. A waiver counts only if we write it down.
- Assignment. We may assign these terms, for example to the operating entity once it is formed, or in a reorganisation. You may not assign them, or your rights under them, without our written agreement.
- Entire agreement. These terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between us about gord, and they replace anything said elsewhere, by us or on our behalf. In agreeing to them you confirm you have not relied on any statement, promise, figure or description that is not written in them, wherever you saw it and whoever said it, and that neither of us has a remedy for one. This does not limit anybody's liability for a fraudulent statement.
- No partnership. These terms create no partnership, agency, joint venture or employment relationship between us.
- Survival. If you stop using gord, or we block you, the parts of these terms meant to outlast the relationship do: what gord is not, the risks, what you must not do, the licence for content we still display, the as-is disclaimer and the limit of what we owe, your indemnity, the rules on bringing a claim, and the law and forum. They apply to what happened before you stopped exactly as they did while you were here.
Changes
We update these terms when the product changes or when the law requires it, and the date at the top moves with them. That date is the notice, so check it: there is no account for us to email. A change takes effect when it is posted, and continuing to use gord after that means you accept it. If you do not, stop using gord.
