Disclaimer

Taunt Battleworld is a play-to-earn and view-to-earn game that utilizes cryptographic tokens as a means of reward for users and spectators. This game, inspired by fighting games such as Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat, combines strategy, training, and discovery in order to provide a challenging yet accessible gaming experience. In Taunt Battleworld, users can engage with live content and earn in-game currency by predicting and influencing gameplay in real time.
To participate in Taunt Battleworld, users must acquire tokens to pay for subscription or entry fees and obtain unique non-fungible tokens (NFTs) representing in-game characters. These NFTs can be obtained through a process called "quickening," which involves breeding two compatible NFTs using tokens as payment. The token is a crucial element of the Taunt Battleworld ecosystem, as it is used to facilitate all transactions, including payment for platform entry fees, purchasing in-game characters and NFTs, and combining in-game character NFTs through breeding.
By accessing or using the Token, you represent and warrant that you are doing so solely for the purpose of participating in the Taunt Battleworld ecosystem and obtaining services or utility within that ecosystem. Taunt is not acting as a financial, legal, or fiduciary advisor to you in connection with the distribution of the Token. You are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable laws at your own expense, and you will be held responsible for any violations of such laws.
This Disclaimer does not create any agency, partnership, or joint venture between $TAUNT and you. By accessing or using the Token, you acknowledge that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by this Disclaimer and Taunt's privacy policy, which is incorporated herein by reference. Taunt reserves the right to update, modify, or change this Disclaimer at any time at its sole discretion. Continued access to or use of the Token will constitute acceptance of any such updates, modifications, or changes. You are encouraged to review this Disclaimer on a periodic and ongoing basis.

As governance tokens, $TAUNT give holders the ability to propose and vote on changes to the platform through a three-step process that includes solicitation of interest on the community forum, a consensus vote through a Taunt Improvement Proposal (TIP), and implementation. $TAUNT holders may also have the right to improve gameplay and platform functionality, as well as enhance the play-to-earn (P2E) and view-to-earn (V2E) interactive gaming experience.
$TAUNT holders have a limited but meaningful role in the management and operation of the Taunt Battleworld platform. They have voting rights on various functional aspects of the platform, including improvements, gaming features, and enhanced token utilities. These governance rights are designed to improve the user experience, enhance the appearance and functionality of the platform, and are not intended to increase buying pressure on the token or improve token economics or investment returns."

This whitepaper is for informational purposes only and does not constitute any binding commitments. The information contained in this whitepaper is subject to change. The Token is intended for use on the Taunt Battleworld gaming platform and has been designed for maximal platform utility and ease of use. It powers the Taunt Battleworld ecosystem and can be used to pay user entry/subscription fees, purchase and sell non-fungible tokens (NFTs), increase the odds of obtaining genesis NFTs through whitelisting, pay for quickening fees, and reward users for viewing battles, winning, and enabling spectators to predict outcomes for free. The watch-and-earn fees include NFT non-consumables fees (such as Skins), NFT finishing maneuvers animation fees, NFT Taunt end fight animation fees, NFT entrance fees, and Sprit fees (lives). The play-and-earn fees include NFT fighter fees, NFT quickening fees, subscription fees, and fight entry fees. Taunt reserves the right to change, remove, or alter these features at its sole discretion.

The Token powers the game’s most compelling aspects, including the play-to-earn (P2E) and view-to-earn (V2E) gaming functionality. Users that win battles will earn prizes paid for the round, which are paid out exclusively in the Token. Alternatively, viewers can predict the outcome of the battle and earn Tokens based on their prediction. View-to-earn mechanics will be handled by Taunt Battleworld.
Blockchain
The $TAUNT will initially be launched on the Ethereum (ERC-20) network, and the Taunt Battleworld game will use the Polygon (Matic) network (referred to here as the "blockchain") to enable its use as a platform currency for all on-platform transactions, aiming to reduce settlement times and transaction fees. The blockchain is a decentralized, peer-to-peer network that is not owned or controlled by $TAUNT.
For a transaction to be validated on the blockchain, it must be confirmed and recorded on the distributed ledger associated with the blockchain. These transactions or similar activities create a direct contractual relationship between the seller and the buyer, and $TAUNT is not a party to this contract. Therefore, $TAUNT does not have any insight into or control over these payments or transactions, and cannot reverse any transactions or provide any guarantees, warranties, or assurances regarding them. As a result, $TAUNT will not be liable for any claims, damages, or losses that may arise from any transaction that the user engages in regarding the token.
