# Disclaimer

States important limitations and legal notices for this documentation.

This disclaimer applies to the GPUFi whitepaper, Version 0.1, September 2026.

### General disclaimer

This whitepaper is informational documentation. It describes GPUFi's current design, roadmap, mechanisms, and limitations.

It is not investment advice or financial advice. It is not a solicitation to buy or sell any asset. It does not guarantee future returns.

### No guarantee of yield

GPUFi does not promise fixed APY or guaranteed mining rewards. Mining rewards depend on trading activity, creator-tax revenue, the amount entering the mining pool, and each miner's relative mining power.

Lower trading activity can result in less funding entering the mining pool. Review the [Economic Risk](/risks/economic-risk.md) details alongside the mining mechanism.

### Current and future infrastructure

Phase 1 has no physical GPUs. Initial mining yield comes from trading activity and creator tax.

Later phases intend to add treasury-funded GPU acquisition, external GPU operators, GPU rental revenue, and an inference API. These are roadmap intentions, not guarantees. GPU infrastructure depends on treasury accumulation.

### Regulatory disclaimer

The legal and regulatory treatment of GPUFi mining rewards has not been conclusively determined. GPUFi does not currently have a legal opinion determining whether mining rewards could be considered a security.

The project references the Howey framework as a relevant consideration. That reference does not determine the legal classification of mining rewards. GPUFi intends to seek legal counsel before launch. Regulatory treatment may differ by jurisdiction.

See [Regulatory Risk](/risks/regulatory-risk.md) for the stated uncertainty.

### Smart contract disclaimer

The mining contract has been drafted but has not yet been audited. An audit is planned before mainnet.

Until an audit is completed, the contract should not be represented as audited or guaranteed secure. See [Smart Contract Risk](/risks/smart-contract-risk.md) for the current status.

### Third-party and brand disclaimer

GPUFi is not affiliated with NVIDIA or Robinhood Markets. NVIDIA does not endorse GPUFi and does not know the project exists.

NVDA is used as a narrative and reference point in the project's design. It does not indicate a commercial, technical, or promotional relationship with NVIDIA or Robinhood Markets.

### Roadmap disclaimer

The roadmap represents GPUFi's intended development path. Future milestones depend on ecosystem activity, treasury accumulation, successful infrastructure deployment, and future participation and usage.

Phase 2 GPU acquisition, Phase 3 operator participation, and Phase 4 inference API deployment are not guaranteed. Future infrastructure revenue is also not guaranteed.

### User responsibility

Readers should independently evaluate the token mechanics, mining mechanics, smart contract status, regulatory uncertainty, economic dependencies, and roadmap assumptions.

This whitepaper provides the project's stated information and design. It does not replace independent evaluation or professional advice where appropriate.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.gpu-fi.uk/disclaimer.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
