GateHub Crypto

1. General

These Lypotoex Crypto Gateway Terms of Use are between you and GateHub Crypto. “Lypotoex Crypto” refers to the company Lypotoex Crypto d.o.o., with the registered office at Zaloska cesta 1, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia.

By using the Lypotoex Crypto Gateway Services (“Services”) provided by Lypotoex Crypto, you confirm that you have read and understand the risk associated with using these Services and you will not use the Services in a manner which is contrary to the general prohibitions regarding your Lypotoex Account, as stipulated in Lypotoex Ltd. Terms of Use. If you do not agree with Lypotoex Ltd. Terms of Use, you cannot use Services.

2. Services

The Services allow you to deposit and withdraw cryptoassets through the XRP Ledger (“XRPL”), through Xahau, or through the native network of a supported cryptoasset (Ethereum or Bitcoin). You can trade directly against any of the cryptoassets. The Services also allow you to deposit and withdraw fiat assets (EUR, USD, GBP), using the SEPA, SWIFT and Faster Payments networks.

You can buy cryptoassets with your existing XRPL or Xahau funds using Lypotoex platform or you can deposit cryptoassets by selecting your wallet and depositing cryptoassets to the provided address.

The minimum amounts for cryptoassets deposits and for withdrawals are published on our Platform. Cryptoassets deposits below these limits will not be processed.

Unsupported tokens and cryptoassets deposited to Lypotoex Crypto Gateway addresses will be subject to our Crosschain Recovery Policy, which constitutes part of the Lypotoex Crypto Gateway Terms.

3. Lypotoex Platform

The Services are accessible through the Lypotoex website (https://Lypotoex.net), GateHub’s mobile app and through websites and mobile apps provided by third parties not affiliated with Lypotoex (the “Platform”). The Platform also enables our users to access and use services provided by third parties. Such third-party services are governed by separate terms of use.

By using the Lypotoex Platform to access the Services you are agreeing to the terms in this agreement. You should read the entire agreement carefully before you use any of the Services. If you do not accept these terms, do not use our Services.

By using our Services you represent and warrant that you have full power and authority to enter into this agreement, and have not been previously suspended or removed from using our Services.

4. Availability of Services

We make no guarantee that you will be able to trade cryptoassets at the time of your request. We will only reflect the transaction in your Lypotoex Account if we have been able to process the transaction.

We cannot guarantee the value of any cryptoasset at the point you submit your transaction.

The underlying protocols of the cryptoassets are subject to sudden changes in operating rules (‘forks’). A fork is a sudden change in how a cryptoasset works. A fork may seriously change the function, value or even the name of a cryptoasset, and may cause a cryptoasset to be split into two cryptoassets. If a fork occurs, we will determine the best approach for users in relation to such an event. Any decision made on behalf of the users will be made at GateHub Crypto’s sole discretion.

The Services are provided without warranty of any kind, either express or implied. We do not represent that the Services will be available all of the time to meet your needs. We will use reasonable endeavors to provide you with the Services as soon as possible but we do not guarantee that access will not be interrupted, or that there will be no delays, failures, errors, omissions or loss of transmitted information.

5. Cross-chain Recovery Policy

A deposit of one coin to a different coins’ blockchain address is considered a cross-chain deposit.

A cross-chain recovery is an inherently risky and time-consuming process. Not all deposits can be recovered. Lypotoex Crypto commits to provide this service on a best effort basis. If Lypotoex Crypto agrees to attempt a cross-chain recovery, a claimant expressly agrees that this attempt carries no assurance of success and that the time frame of any recovery, if possible at all, may vary – an obligation of effort, not an obligation of success.

The decisions whether to attempt a cross-chain recovery and timing of any recovery attempt are at our sole discretion.

This policy applies to any deposit of a Lypotoex supported currency or token sent to the blockchain address of another coin on another network. For example, this includes but is not limited to sending BTC to a BCH address or sending ETH to an ETC address.

Lypotoex will NOT attempt to recover coins or tokens that we do not list or support on our site.

Recovery Attempt Fee equals $500.00 or cryptocurrency equivalent, payable in fiat or in cryptocurrency supported on our site.

Recovery Attempt Fee is payable in advance. If recovery eligibility criteria are met (see next chapter) Lypotoex will deduct the Recovery Attempt Fee amount from the claimant’s hosted Lypotoex wallet.

Recovery Attempt Fee applies for an attempt, not for successful completion of a cross-chain recovery.

In the case of successful cross-chain recovery, no other fees in relation to that recovery apply for the customer.

Recovery eligibility

A recovery request should be submitted to our customer support via the online form with the following information:

    • Description of the transaction,
    • Transaction ID (hash), and

Transaction Date/Time/Amount/Currency.

Please provide as much information as possible, to help us process your request faster.

We will assess your recovery eligibility based on the following criteria:

  • A claimant must be a verified Lypotoex customer,
  • Must make the claim within 90 days from the date of deposit,
  • Must hold a hosted Lypotoex wallet,
  • Must seek recovery of a supported currency,
  • Must seek recovery of deposits exceeding the minimum value (established by Lypotoex in its sole discretion), and
  • Must pay in advance a Recovery Attempt Fee.

All six criteria must be met in order for funds to be considered eligible for recovery. Additionally, we deliberate over each recovery claim on an individual basis and may decline to attempt a recovery regardless of the factors cited above, particularly if we determine any suspicious activity related to a deposit, as determined solely in our own discretion.

We will grant recovery exclusively to our customers who will have completed the mandatory KYC procedure in order to become verified before the fact or during the course of the recovery claim. Lypotoex account registration is free of charge and is subject to limitations as laid out in this agreement. More details on set criteria are laid out below. Our customer support will assist you upon submission of the recovery claim.

A recovery claim must be made within a 90 calendar-day period, running from the date of the initial deposit. All claims requested beyond this 90 calendar-day period are barred.

We will credit any recovery exclusively to an account with a Lypotoex hosted wallet. Hosted wallets are available to our customers free of charge, and may be created before the fact or during the course of the recovery claim.

Supported currencies eligible for cross-chain recovery include BTC, BCH, ETH, ETC, DASH, LTC, USDT, USDC, WXRP, GALA, FLR and SGB. We will only attempt to recover deposits that exceed the value of $2,500 at the time of deposit transaction and will charge the fee for the recovery attempt process. At the time of the recovery, the full fee amount ($500 or cryptocurrency equivalent) must be available in the customer’s hosted wallet. This attempt fee is charged automatically; no action from the claimant is required.

Unsupported token deposits including ICOs, airdrops, or blockchain forks will not be recovered or credited to your wallet.

6. Verifying who you are

To start using our Services, you will need to register on our Platform and perform a Know Your Customer (“KYC”) identification and verification procedure.
