Illust Space Items are forever tracked and stored on the Ethereum blockchain, providing the Collector of an Illust Space Item with a permanent record of authenticity and ownership.

Artist Whitelisting and Minting

To create an Illust Space Item, Approved Artists must upload an original digital Artwork, provide information about the artwork, authenticate the work, initiate a request to a token Minting Smart Contract and which will then provide the Artist with a Minted unique, cryptographic token representing a digital version of the artwork.
Artist Agrees to Mint only “Original” Artworks
By Minting a Illust Space Item, Artists expressly represent and warrant that their Artwork is an original creation. Artists are prohibited from Minting Artworks consisting of unlicensed or unauthorized copyrighted content, including any imagery, design, audio, video, human likeness, or other unoriginal content not created by the Artist, not authorized for use by the Artist, not in the public domain, or otherwise without a valid claim of fair use.

Artist represents and warrants that the display or performance of the Illust Space item for sale on the Platform is not a violation of any agreement, contract, or obligation owed to a third-party.

The Illust Space Marketplace
The Illust Space Platform facilitates a peer-to-peer digital art Marketplace where Artists, Collectors, and other Users can sell, purchase, list for auction, and bid on Illust Space Items. Collectors may obtain Illust Space Items by purchasing or bidding for Items listed on the Illust Space Marketplace. Items listed for sale on the Illust Space marketplace are not offered on consignment or held in trust on behalf of any artist, collector, owner, or user.
Purchasing Illust Space Items
Illust Space Items are optionally offered for a Primary Sale at a List Price (in ETH) established by the Artist. Collectors may purchase an Illust Space Item through the Site by sending amount of ETH equivalent to the List Price to a Smart Contract configured to initiate a transfer of the Illust Space Item.
Static Auctions
A bid placed by a Collector in a Static Auction is a legally binding, revocable offer to purchase the Item at the bid price capable of immediate acceptance by the Owner of the Item. By placing a bid in a Static Auction, the Collector agrees to temporarily send and lose control over an amount of ETH equivalent to the bid price to a Smart Contract. The Smart Contract is configured to hold the ETH bid until either the bid is accepted by the Owner of the Item, a higher bid is received, or the bid is revoked. The Owner of the auctioned Item has the unilateral authority to accept the bid.
Bids for Illust Space Item Constitute Binding Offers
Collectors may obtain Illust Space Items by placing a successful bid during one of the bidding formats supported by the Illust Space Platform. By using the Site or Platform to bid on an item, the User agrees and acknowledges that a bid constitutes a legally binding offer exclusively between the Item Owner and the bidding User.
User Transactions are Executed by Smart Contracts
All transactions on the Illust Space Marketplace (the “Marketplace”), including transfers, offers, sales, or purchases of Illust Space Items are initiated at the sole discretion of the Users. To initiate a transaction on the Illust Space Marketplace, a User must voluntarily invoke one or more Smart Contract operations from an Ethereum Wallet. The Smart Contracts are configured to facilitate the execution of a voluntary User offer, an acceptance of an offer, or other confirmation to purchase, sell, Mint, or transfer an Illust Space Item. The User agrees to be bound by the outcome of any Smart Contract operation by invoking, calling, requesting, or otherwise engaging with the Smart Contract, whether or not the Smart Contract behaves as the User expects.
Illust Space is Not a Party to Marketplace Transactions
The User acknowledges and agrees that Illust Space is not a party to any agreement or transaction between any Users involving the purchase, sale, or transfer of Illust Space Items on the Platform. Illust Creative Partners reserves the right to execute Smart Contract transactions on the Illust Space Marketplace as a collector of Illust Space items.
Marketplace Conduct
The Illust Space Marketplace is a transparent and open digital art Marketplace that depends on the honest participation of all Users. Users shall review and abide by our User Agreement. Furthermore:
Users are Prohibited from Manipulating Market Prices
Users are expressly forbidden from accepting, soliciting, offering, bidding, engaging with the Smart Contracts, or otherwise transacting on or off of the Illust Space Platform with the intent to artificially devalue, inflate, or otherwise deceptively influence, misrepresent, or cause to be misrepresented the price an Illust Space Item, groups of Illust Space Items, or Illust Space Items created by particular Artists.
Users are Prohibited from Preventing Competitive Bidding
Users are expressly and generally forbidden from engaging any conduct that may prevent competitive bidding on the Illust Space Marketplace, such as but not limited to “puffing,” “chill bidding,” “shill bidding,” “sham bidding,” “sock puppet bidding,” or “wash trading.”
Users are Prohibited from Using the Marketplace to Conceal Economic Activity
Users are expressly forbidden from engaging into any transaction on the Illust Space Marketplace for the purpose of concealing economic activity not relating to Illust Space Item transactions. For example, and without limitation, Users are forbidden from using the Marketplace to launder money, conceal or transfer proceeds relating to criminal activity, or to make payments to people for consideration other than a Illust Space Item.
Users Agree to Report Suspicious Market Activity
Users agree to report suspicious market activity of other Illust Space Users. If a User suspects that one or more Illust Space Users are in violation of these Terms, the User should promptly inform the Illust Space team at [email protected]

Illust Space hereby reserves the right to completely or partially restrict or revoke a User’s access to the Site for violating these Terms or the User Agreement. Illust Space reserves the right to continue or extend the time of an auction, close an auction, retract bids, and/or re-list any Items which may have been acquired or attempted to have been acquired by a User(s) in violation of these Terms. Illust Space reserves the right to amend, rectify, edit, or otherwise alter Illust Space Market transaction data to mitigate market harm caused by a User’s violation of these terms.
User Releases Illust Space from Claims Arising From Violations of the Marketplace Code of Conduct
The User irrevocably releases, acquits, and forever discharges Illust Creative Partners and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, and successors for and against any and all past or future causes of action, suits, or controversies arising out of another User’s violation of the Illust Space Marketplace code of conduct, these Terms, or the User Agreement.
Illust Space Marketplace Prices & Fees
Every transaction on the Illust Space Marketplace is subject to fees collected to support the Artists and the Platform. “Primary Sale” refers to the first sale of an Item from the original Artist to a Collector.  “Secondary Sales” refers to any subsequent sales of the Item from a Collector to another Collector.
For Primary Sales, Illust Space will receive a percentage of the publicly recorded price for which an Item was sold (“Sales Price”) as a commission, which will be dependent on the negotiated fee structure, lot price, creative services, and other considerations as agreed upon between Illust Space and the Artist. As Illust Space helps artists create 3D assets and augmented reality models for artist auction, Illust Space bakes all creative services into the primary sale auction commission and is different for each artist.
For Secondary Sales, Illust Space collects a “Marketplace Fee” equivalent to 5%  of the Sales Price, to be paid by the purchaser. For example, a Collector purchasing a Illust Space Item for 1.00 ETH will pay 1.05 ETH. For each Secondary Sale of an Item, the original Artist will also receive a royalty equivalent to 10% of the Sales Price (“Royalty”). The Royalty is deducted from the total Sale Price at the time of the purchase by operation of the Smart Contracts. For example, a Collector selling a Illust Space Item for 1 ETH on the Secondary Market will receive only 0.90 ETH, with the Artist of the Illust Space Item receiving the remaining 0.10 ETH as a Royalty
All fees, Royalties, and commissions, are collected and distributed at the time of the purchase of a Illust Space Item by operation of the Smart Contracts. If any fees, Royalties, or commissions are collected or distributed in cash, applicable conversion rate shall be the rate applicable at the time of purchase.
Users Agree to the Automated Collection and Disbursement of Fees by the Smart Contracts
The User agrees and understands that all fees, commissions, and royalties are transferred, processed, or initiated directly through one or more of the Smart Contracts on the Ethereum blockchain network. By transacting on the platform and by using the Smart Contracts, the User hereby acknowledges, consents to, and accepts all automated fees, commissions, and royalties for the sale of Items on the Illust Space Platform. The User hereby consents to and agrees to be bound by the Smart Contracts’ execution and distribution of the fees, commissions, and royalties. Users hereby waive any entitlement to royalties or fees paid to another by operation of the Smart Contracts.
Users Consent to Automated Royalties to Artists
The User consents to the automated collection and disbursement to Artists of royalties for Secondary Market sales of Illust Space Items. The User hereby waives any first sale defense or argument with respect to Secondary Market activities resulting in a royalty to an Illust Space Artist.
Illust Space Makes No Representations on Price
Users acknowledge and consent to the risk that the price of an Item purchased on the Illust Space marketplace may have been influenced by User activity outside of the control of Illust Creative Partners or the Illust Space Platform. Illust Space does not represent, guarantee, or warrant the accuracy or fairness of the price of any Illust Space Item sold or offered for sale on or off of the Marketplace. The User agrees and acknowledges that Illust Space is not an a fiduciary nor owes any duties to any User of the platform, including the duty to ensure fair pricing of Illust Space Items or to police User behavior on the Marketplace.
Off Market Transactions
Illust Space does not generally collect any fees, commissions, or royalties for transactions occurring outside of the Illust Space Marketplace and not involving the Illust Space Smart Contracts. To support the Illust Space Artists and the Platform, we encourage Collectors to list Items for sale on the Illust Space Marketplace, however Collectors are permitted to sell or transfer their Items on third party exchanges. The Artist and all other Users hereby waive any entitlement to royalties or fees for off market transactions. The User irrevocably releases, acquits, and forever discharges Illust Creative Partners and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, and successors of any liability for royalties, fines, or Fees not received by the User from any off-market transaction.
Gas
All User transactions on the Illust Space Platform, including without limitation Minting, tokenizing, bidding, listing, offering, purchasing, or confirming, are facilitated by Smart Contracts existing on the Ethereum network. The Ethereum network requires the payment of a transaction fee (a “Gas Fee”) for every transaction that occurs on the Ethereum network, and thus every transaction occurring on the Illust Space Platform. The value of the Gas Fee changes, often unpredictably, and is entirely outside of the control of Illust Creative Partners or the Illust Space Platform. The User acknowledges that under no circumstances will a contract, agreement, offer, sale, bid, or other transaction on the Platform be invalidated, revocable, retractable, or otherwise unenforceable on the basis that the Gas Fee for the given transaction was unknown, too high, or otherwise unacceptable to a User.
Taxes
Users are responsible to pay any and all sales, use, value-added and other taxes, duties, and assessments now or hereafter claimed or imposed by any governmental authority, “associated with your use of the Platform (including, without limitation, any taxes that may become payable as the result of your ownership, transfer, purchase, sale, or creation of any artworks).
Ownership
All works Minted on the Platform are subject to the  the terms set forth below. All Users who receive an Illust Space Item acknowledge and agree to accept or purchase the Item subject to the conditions below.
Ownership of a Illust Space Item
Owning an Illust Space Item is similar to owning a piece of physical art. You own a cryptographic token representing the Artist’s creative Artwork as a piece of property, but you do not own the creative Artwork itself. Collectors may show off their ownership of collected Illust Space Items by displaying and sharing the underlying Artwork, but Collectors do not have any legal ownership, right, or title to any copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights to the underlying Artwork, excepting the limited license granted by these Terms to underlying Artwork. The Artist reserves all exclusive copyrights to Artworks underlying Illust Space Items Minted by the Artist on the Platform, including but not limited to the right to reproduce, to prepare derivative works, to display, to perform, and to distribute the Artworks.
The Collector’s Limited License to a Minted Artwork
Owning a Illust Space Item is also different than owning a piece of physical art. Art on the Illust Space Platform is digital, meaning that it is inherently easier to share, display, replicate, and distribute around cyberspace. Our User Agreement encourage Collectors to show off, promote, and share their collected Items, but the Collectors may not infringe on any of the exclusive rights of the copyright holder (i.e., the Artist). Collectors receive a limited, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-assignable (except in the case of Secondary Sales), non-sublicensable, royalty-free license to display the Artwork underlying Illust Space Items legally owned and properly obtained by the Collector.
Collectors May Display the Artwork
The Collector’s limited license to display the Artwork, or perform the Artwork in the case of audiovisual works, includes, but is not limited to, the right to display or perform the Artwork privately or publicly: (i) for the purpose of promoting or sharing the Collector’s purchase, ownership, or interest in the Artwork, for example, on social media platforms, blogs, digital galleries, or other Internet-based media platforms; (ii) for the purpose of sharing, promoting, discussing, or commenting on the Artwork; (iii) on third party Marketplaces, exchanges, Platforms, or applications in association with an offer to sell, or trade, the Token associated with Artwork; and (iv) within decentralized virtual environments, virtual worlds, virtual galleries, virtual museums, or other navigable and perceivable virtual environments, including simultaneous display of multiple copies of the Artwork within one or more virtual environments.
Collectors Shall Not Make Commercial Use of Artwork
Collectors have the right to sell, trade, transfer, or use their Illust Space Items, but Collectors may not make “commercial use” of the underlying Artwork including, for example, by selling copies of Artwork, selling access to the Artwork, selling derivative works embodying the Artwork, or otherwise commercially exploiting the Artwork.
Other Restrictions on the Collector’s Limited License
The Collector agrees that it may not, nor permit any third party, to do or attempt to do any of the foregoing without the Artist’s express prior written consent in each case: (i) modify, distort, mutilate, or perform any other modification to the Artwork which would be prejudicial to the Artist’s honor or reputation; (ii) use the Artwork in connection with images, videos, or other forms of media that depict hatred, intolerance, violence, cruelty, or anything else that could reasonably be found to constitute hate speech or otherwise infringe upon the rights of others; (iii) incorporate the Artwork in movies, videos, video games, or any other forms of media for a commercial purpose, except to the limited extent that such use is expressly permitted by these Terms or solely for your Collector’s personal, non-commercial use; (iv) sell (except for Secondary Sales conducted in accordance with these Terms), distribute for commercial gain, or otherwise commercialize merchandise that includes, contains, or consists of the Artwork; (v) attempt to trademark, copyright, or otherwise acquire additional intellectual property rights in or to the Artwork; (vi) attempt to Mint, tokenize, or create an additional cryptographic token representing the same Artwork, whether on or off of the Illust Space Platform; (vii) falsify, misrepresent, or conceal the authorship of the Artwork or the Illust Space Item; or (viii) otherwise utilize the Artwork for the Collector’s or any third party’s commercial benefit.
The Limited License Belongs Only to the Current Owner of an Illust Space Item
The User agrees and acknowledges that the lawful ownership, possession, and title to a Illust Space Item is a necessary and sufficient condition precedent to receive the limited license rights to the underlying Artwork provided by these Terms. Any subsequent transfer of ownership, dispossession, burning (i.e. making an asset permanently inaccessible), or other relinquishment of a Illust Space Item will immediately terminate the former Owner’s rights and interest in the license or Illust Space Item as provided by these Terms.
The Artist’s Rights and Restrictions
The Artist owns all legal right, title, and interest in all intellectual property rights to creative Artworks underlying Illust Space Items Minted by the Artist on the Platform, including but not limited to copyrights and trademarks. As the copyright owner, the Artist enjoys several exclusive rights to the Artwork, including the right to reproduce, the right to prepare derivative works, the right to distribute, and the right to display or perform the Art. Subject to, and in accordance with these Terms, the Artist hereby acknowledges, understands, and agrees that Minting an Artwork on the Platform constitutes an express and affirmative grant of the limited license rights to the Artwork to all subsequent Owners of the Illust Space Item, as provided herein.
Artist Agrees Not to Mint Multiple Tokens for the Same Artwork
Illust Space Items are unique, meaning that there should only ever be one digital token for a given Artwork of Art. Artist hereby acknowledges, understands, and agrees that Minting a Artwork on the Platform constitutes an express representation, warranty, and covenant that the Artist has not, will not, and will not cause another to Mint, tokenize, or create another cryptographic token representing a digital collectible for the same Artwork, excepting, without limitation, the Artist’s ability to Mint, tokenize, or create a cryptographic token or other digital asset representing a legal, economic, or other interest relating to any of the exclusive rights belonging to the Artist under copyright law.
Artist Grants Illust Space a License to All Minted Artworks
