Smart contract risk
STIMS relies on Printr’s protocol and Solana’s underlying chain. Smart contracts can have bugs, exploits, or unintended behavior. While Printr’s contracts are deployed and in active use, no contract is guaranteed risk-free. Funds locked in any staking position are subject to the security of those contracts.Printr program changes
STIMS’s mechanics are built on top of Printr — the staking multipliers, the points system, the fee distribution. Printr controls these mechanics and can change them at any time:- The Printr Points program may end before $PRINT airdrops occur
- Multiplier tiers (1× through 2.5×) may be adjusted by Printr
- Fee distribution mechanics may change on Printr’s side
Curated launch performance
A 20% locked deployer position commits supply long-term — but it does not guarantee a launch will succeed. Individual STIMS-deployed tokens can fail to gain traction, lose narrative momentum, or trade down regardless of the deployer’s commitment. Stakers should expect a basket of outcomes, not a basket of winners.Unlock risk
All STIMS deployer positions unlock after 180 days. The tokens in those positions ultimately belong to STIMS stakers — what happens at unlock is a community decision, not a unilateral team call. A governance process to determine what to do at each unlock is planned. The current default is to re-lock unlocked positions back into Printr at the maximum tier, continuing to compound the basket. Stakers should be aware that unlock dates create discrete decision points, and the chosen action (re-lock, sell, hold) will affect supply dynamics for that token.Lost or compromised wallets
Distributions and airdrops are routed to specific wallet addresses on-chain. If you lose access to your wallet, send the presale from a custodial / exchange wallet you don’t control, or have your wallet compromised, STIMS cannot recover, redirect, or reissue your earnings. Always use a self-custodied wallet you fully control when participating.Operational risk
STIMS distributions depend on the team executing the snapshot, calculation, and payout each week. While the process is designed to be reliable, distributions can be delayed by technical issues, network congestion, or other operational factors.Regulatory uncertainty
Crypto regulations vary by jurisdiction and continue to evolve. Participation in STIMS may have tax, securities, or other legal implications depending on where you live. STIMS is not legal or financial advice. Consult your own counsel before participating, especially if you are a US person or operating in a regulated jurisdiction.Nothing in this documentation is financial advice. STIMS is an experimental protocol; participate only with funds you can afford to lose.
