Terms of Service

Last Updated: July 11, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Digital Opportunities Group Enterprises, Inc. ("DigOpp," "we," "us," or the "Company"), the operator of Counterparty Catalogue at www.counterpartycatalogue.com (the "Site"). By using the Site, or by accepting these Terms when creating an account, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Site. If you use the Site on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and "you" includes it.

1. What Counterparty Catalogue Is

Counterparty Catalogue is a research and directory platform about service providers in the digital-asset industry. The Site includes:

  • Directory profiles of service providers, some created by us from public information and some claimed or maintained by the providers themselves;
  • Intelligence Data: datasets, statistics, and analyses that we compile from public third-party sources — including records of security incidents and exploits, and records of audits published by audit firms — together with metrics we compute from those records, such as per-firm incident counts, rates, and rankings (see Section 4);
  • User reviews of service providers, written by registered users;
  • RFP and introduction features that let users post requests and connect with providers;
  • Articles and other editorial content.

We are a publisher of research and a venue for user content. We are not a broker, dealer, investment adviser, auditor, insurer, fiduciary, or agent of any listed company, and we are not a party to any transaction or engagement between users or between users and providers.

2. Professional Audience; Eligibility

The Site is intended for professional and institutional participants in the digital-asset industry — including funds, allocators, service providers, auditors, custodians, technology vendors, and their advisers — and for journalists and researchers. Nothing on the Site is directed at retail investors or intended as a basis for personal investment decisions.

You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into these Terms.

3. Accounts

Certain features require an account. You agree to provide accurate registration information and keep it current. You are responsible for your credentials and for activity under your account; notify us promptly of any unauthorized use. We may suspend or terminate accounts as described in Section 14.

4. Intelligence Data: Sources, Methodology, and What Our Metrics Mean

4.1 Sources. Our Intelligence Data is compiled from publicly available third-party sources — including De.Fi Rekt, SlowMist, and DefiLlama — and from audit reports and audit records published by audit firms themselves. We identify sources in the data where practicable and maintain internal audit trails of how records are ingested, de-duplicated, adjusted, and classified.

4.2 Methodology. The metrics we publish — such as audit counts, incident counts, incident or failure rates, and rankings — are computed from those records using a documented methodology published on our Methodology page. Where a computed rate rests on too few underlying records to be statistically meaningful, we label it accordingly (for example, "insufficient data") and exclude it from rate-based rankings.

4.3 What the metrics are — and are not. The underlying records are reports drawn from the public sources identified. The derived metrics, ratings, and rankings are our analysis and opinion, reached by applying the disclosed methodology to those disclosed records. Unless expressly stated otherwise, a published metric does not establish that:

  • an auditor caused an exploit;
  • an auditor was negligent or breached a contract or professional standard;
  • an exploit was within the scope of a particular audit;
  • audited code was unchanged after the audit;
  • an audit could reasonably have detected the exploited condition; or
  • a firm's future work will perform similarly.

A firm's position in any ranking is not an accusation of fraud, incompetence, or wrongdoing — it is a computed summary of disclosed public records. Equally, inclusion on the Site is not an endorsement, and absence from the Site means nothing at all. You must not reproduce a metric stripped of its definition and material qualifications in a manner that is misleading.

4.4 Accuracy; no warranty. Public sources conflict, lag, and contain errors, and we do not independently verify every record. We work to keep the data accurate and we correct errors through the process in Section 5, but the Intelligence Data is provided "as is," without warranty of accuracy, completeness, or timeliness. Do not use it as the sole basis for any engagement, investment, credit, insurance, or similar decision. We may revise data and methodology as better information becomes available; historical results may change.

4.5 Independence from payment. Payment to us — for listings, subscriptions, or anything else — does not and cannot change any firm's metrics, rankings, incident attributions, review scores, or the outcome of any dispute or correction. Paid visibility features affect only presentation and are labeled as such. We do not accept payment to remove, suppress, or improve Intelligence Data, and we will not require payment as a condition of considering a good-faith correction.

5. Corrections and Disputes

5.1 Anyone may report a suspected factual error in the Intelligence Data by contacting [email protected] (subject line "Correction request") with the specific record, the claimed error, and supporting evidence.

5.2 Affected firms. An audit firm or service provider that is the subject of published data may claim its profile (Section 6) and dispute specific records or attributions through the dispute tools on its profile. We will acknowledge a properly submitted dispute and review it in good faith, ordinarily within 30 days. Where our review finds an error, we will correct the record, and the correction will flow through to derived metrics. Where sources conflict or the dispute concerns methodology rather than fact, we may in our editorial judgment uphold the record, annotate it, or remove the attribution. Our resolution of a dispute, including a decision to keep a record with an annotation, is an exercise of editorial judgment about published research; submitting a dispute does not guarantee removal or a particular outcome.

5.3 Submitting a dispute requires accurate identification of the submitter and their relationship to the affected firm. Fraudulent or bad-faith disputes may be rejected summarily and may result in loss of access.

5.4 Review links. We may send firms tokenized review links to preview data concerning them. Those links are for the recipient firm only, expire, and are subject to these Terms.

6. Profiles, Claims, and Verification

6.1 Profiles. Directory profiles may be compiled by us from public information or supplied by the listed company. Except where a profile element is expressly labeled as verified by us, profile content supplied by a company is self-reported and unverified. Conduct your own due diligence before engaging any provider.

6.2 Claiming a profile. A person may request to claim a profile on behalf of a company. By submitting a claim you represent that you are authorized to act for that company, and you agree to provide evidence of authority on request. We may approve or reject claims at our discretion, and may resolve competing claims or revoke a claim whose verification proves unreliable. Claiming a profile grants management access to that profile; it is not an endorsement by us and does not give the company control over Intelligence Data, reviews, or editorial content concerning it (which are governed by Sections 4, 5, and 7). Submitting a false claim of authority is a material breach of these Terms and may expose you to liability. You must notify us if your authority ends.

6.3 Verification. Where we label something "Verified," that means we performed the specific point-in-time checks described alongside the label. Verification is not an endorsement, a warranty of quality or legitimacy, or ongoing monitoring.

7. User Content (Reviews, RFPs, Comments)

7.1 Your content, your responsibility. Reviews, RFPs, comments, profile submissions, and other content you post ("User Content") are your statements, not ours. You are solely responsible for your User Content and for the consequences of posting it.

7.2 Review standards. Reviews must reflect your (or your organization's) genuine, first-hand experience with the provider. You may not: post reviews of your own company, or of a competitor without disclosing the relationship; offer or accept anything of value for a review; post content you know to be false; disclose others' confidential or personal information; or post content that is unlawful, defamatory, infringing, or harassing. Reviews are attributed to registered accounts; anonymous reviews are not supported.

7.3 License. You retain ownership of your User Content. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, adapt (for formatting), publish, display, and distribute it in connection with operating and promoting the Site, for as long as the content remains on the Site plus a reasonable archival period.

7.4 Moderation. We may — but are under no obligation to — screen, hold, approve, annotate, refuse, or remove any User Content at any time for any reason, including before publication. Our screening or approval of content is not an endorsement of it and does not make it our statement.

7.5 Provider responses. A provider may be permitted to respond to reviews concerning it. Responses must meet the same content standards. Providers may not threaten, harass, or retaliate against reviewers, offer improper incentives, or disclose confidential customer information to rebut criticism.

7.6 No review gag. Nothing in these Terms restricts your right to post honest reviews or complaints about us or about listed companies, on this Site or elsewhere.

7.7 Intermediary status. To the fullest extent permitted by law, including Section 230 of the U.S. Communications Decency Act where it applies, we are not the publisher or speaker of User Content and are not liable for it. If you believe User Content is unlawful or violates these Terms, report it to [email protected].

8. Acceptable Use

You agree not to: use the Site for unlawful purposes; probe, disrupt, or overload the Site or its infrastructure; bypass access controls, rate limits, or the registration wall; use automated means (bots, scrapers, crawlers) to access or extract data from the Site except via interfaces we expressly provide or with our prior written consent (good-faith indexing by public search engines observing robots.txt is permitted); misrepresent your identity or affiliation; resell, republish, or redistribute substantial portions of the Intelligence Data without a written license from us; use the Site's data to train machine-learning models without written consent; re-identify intentionally de-identified data; or interfere with the dispute, claim, review, or introduction systems, including by submitting fraudulent entries.

9. Intellectual Property

The Site, its design, software, editorial content, and the selection, coordination, curation, and arrangement of the Intelligence Data are owned by us or our licensors and protected by copyright, database, trademark, and other laws. Underlying public facts are not owned by anyone; our compilation, corrections, classifications, and derived metrics are ours to the extent legally protectable, and third-party materials remain their owners'. We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access the Site and use its content for your internal business, research, and evaluation purposes. Brief quotations with attribution and a link are welcome; systematic reproduction or redistribution is not, absent a written license.

10. Copyright Complaints

If you believe content on the Site infringes your copyright, send a notice identifying the work, the allegedly infringing material and its location on the Site, your contact details, and a good-faith statement of unauthorized use to [email protected]. We respond to valid notices, including by removing material, and we may terminate repeat infringers. This channel is for copyright only — data corrections and disputes belong in Section 5.

11. Paid Listings, Subscriptions, and Fees

11.1 Plans. We offer paid listing tiers and may offer other paid features; current tiers and prices are on our Pricing page. Prices may change with notice; changes apply from your next billing cycle.

11.2 Billing. Paid subscriptions bill in advance on a monthly or annual cycle as selected, by the payment methods we support, and renew automatically until cancelled. You may cancel at any time, effective at the end of the current billing period, by written notice to [email protected] — cancelling is never harder than signing up. For annual plans we will send a renewal reminder before the renewal date. Except where required by law or expressly stated, fees are non-refundable for the current period; taxes are your responsibility. We may suspend paid features for non-payment after notice.

11.3 What payment buys — and does not. Paid tiers affect presentation, features, and support only. See Section 4.5: payment never affects Intelligence Data, metrics, rankings, reviews, or dispute outcomes. Paid placement is labeled as such where it appears.

12. RFPs and Introductions; No Advice

RFP and introduction features merely connect users; any engagement that follows is solely between the parties, on their own terms, and we bear no responsibility for its outcome. When you request an introduction or respond to an RFP, you consent to our sharing your name, organization, and contact details with the counterparty for that purpose, and you are responsible for protecting any confidential information you choose to send.

Nothing on the Site — including Intelligence Data, metrics, rankings, reviews, articles, and RFP responses — is investment, legal, tax, accounting, security, audit, insurance, procurement, or other professional advice, or a recommendation or endorsement of any provider, protocol, asset, or strategy. Consult your own advisers.

13. Third-Party Content and Links

The Site aggregates data from, and links to, third-party sources and websites that we do not control. We are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or practices. Attribution of a record to a third-party source is a statement about what that source published, not our adoption of it as our own claim.

14. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account or access, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms or applicable law, submitted false claims or fraudulent content, or created risk or legal exposure for us or others; or for extended inactivity; or if we discontinue the Site or a feature. You may stop using the Site, and delete your account, at any time. Sections that by their nature should survive (including 4, 7.3, 7.7, 9, and 15–19) survive termination. If we terminate a paid subscription without cause, we will refund the prorated unused portion of prepaid fees; that is our sole liability for such termination.

15. Disclaimers

THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT ON IT — INCLUDING INTELLIGENCE DATA, METRICS, RANKINGS, PROFILES, VERIFICATIONS, REVIEWS, AND ARTICLES — ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AND COMPLETENESS. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, THAT ANY LISTED FIRM IS SUITABLE, OR THAT ANY AUDIT OR AUDITED PROTOCOL IS SECURE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS; IN THAT CASE THIS SECTION APPLIES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED.

16. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW: (A) WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR DATA, ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE SITE OR THESE TERMS; AND (B) OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE SITE OR THESE TERMS IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (i) THE FEES YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM AND (ii) USD $100. THESE LIMITS APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY AND EVEN IF A REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, BUT DO NOT EXCLUDE LIABILITY THAT CANNOT LAWFULLY BE EXCLUDED (INCLUDING, WHERE APPLICABLE LAW SO PROVIDES, LIABILITY FOR FRAUD, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE).

17. Indemnification

You will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from third-party claims, and resulting liabilities, damages, and reasonable costs (including attorneys' fees), arising from: (a) your User Content; (b) your violation of these Terms or of law; (c) your violation of any third party's rights; or (d) any false representation of authority in a claim or dispute submission. We will notify you promptly of any such claim and may participate in the defense with our own counsel; you may not settle a claim in a manner that admits our fault or imposes obligations on us without our written consent.

18. Governing Law; Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, USA, excluding its conflict-of-laws rules, and disputes will be resolved exclusively in the state and federal courts located in Atlanta, Georgia; each party consents to personal jurisdiction there. Nothing in this section limits either party's right to seek injunctive relief for intellectual-property infringement or data misuse in any competent court, and nothing overrides mandatory consumer protections of your home jurisdiction where they apply.

To the extent permitted by law, all claims must be brought in an individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, or representative proceeding; both parties waive trial by jury; and any claim must be filed within one year after it accrues, where the law permits such shortening.

19. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms. For material changes we will give notice — by email to account holders and/or a prominent Site notice — at least 14 days before the changes take effect, and we will update the "Last Updated" date. Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. Changes are not retroactive.

20. Miscellaneous

If a provision of these Terms is unenforceable, it will be limited or severed and the rest stands. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. We are not liable for failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, or to an affiliate. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any posted feature-specific terms, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Site. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, employment, franchise, fiduciary, or agency relationship between you and us.
