At its sole discretion, LakeDiamond launched an ICO to sell LKD Tokens. LKD Tokens Owners (or potential LKD Tokens Owners) are aware, understand and accept that growing diamonds rough, and transforming such roughs into plates or round brilliant diamonds respectively is at an early stage and is a long process and that Purchasers’ needs and expectations with respect to delivery timing may not be guaranteed and may be subject to delay, in particular but not limited to high demand and/or outage and/or labs sizing and/or other production issues. LakeDiamond SA shall not be held liable for any delay and/or postponement and/or impossibility to use LKD Tokens (or Diamond Grown Production Hours).
LKD Terms and Conditions shall apply to LKD Tokens. LKD Tokens Owners understand that they are bound by the LKD Tokens Terms and Conditions available on this website and as updated from time to time. LKD Tokens are not intended to give Tokens Owners any other right like, for instance, equity, assets, bond, security, interest, yield, debt, right to repayment, or intellectual property right.
LKD TOKENS WILL NOT QUALIFY AS PURE CRYPTOCURRENCIES LIKE FOR INSTANCE BITCOIN OR ETHEREUM AND MAY NOT BE USED AS SUCH IN ANY WAY. THEY WILL ALSO NOT AND SHALL NOT BE USED IN ANY WAY AS EQUITY, ASSETS, BONDS, SECURITIES, DERIVATIVES OR ANY OTHER FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS.

More comprehensive risk factors describing risks associated with LKD Tokens are set out in the ICO offering documentation in particular but not limited to the Terms and Conditions of the LKD Tokens.
LKD Tokens Owners are aware, understand and accept that any smart contract, and/or any underlying software application and/or any blockchain are part of a new technology that is still in an early stage. LKD Tokens Owners are aware, understand and accept that the blockchain may be interrupted or may contain errors.

LKD Tokens Owners are aware, understand and accept that any smart contract and/or underlying protocols and/or any other software, and/or any blockchain may either delay and/or not execute and/or not execute properly an order due to various factors, including, but not limited to the overall traffic volume, mining attacks, virus and/or similar events.
