The remedies of the Operator are cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred by the provisions of these Terms of Service, or by law or equity. You agree that the remedies to which the Operator is entitled include, but are not limited to, (i) injunctions to prevent breaches of these Terms of Service and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, and you waive the requirement of any posting of a bond in connection with such remedies, (ii) the right to recover the amount of any Losses by set off against any amounts that the Operator would otherwise be obligated to pay to you, and (iii) the right to seize and recover against any of your Digital Tokens, or your interests therein, that are held by the Operator or any of its Associates.

In the event of force majeure, the Operator is excused from any and all performance obligations under these Terms of Service.

Any attempt by you to assign these Terms of Service without written consent is void.
Severability: If any provision of these Terms of Service or part thereof, as amended from time to time, is determined to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, in whole or in part, by any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, voidness, or unenforceability attaches only to such provision to the extent of its illegality, unenforceability, invalidity, or voidness, as may be, and everything else in these Terms of Service continues in full force and effect.
