# Legal Aspects

Celestium Protocol DAO LLC operates as decentralized infrastructure incorporated in the Marshall Islands, but the partner who deploys a contract on top of that infrastructure operates within their own jurisdiction. Owning and running a partner contract may carry tax, licensing, and consumer-protection obligations the protocol itself does not address. Consult a qualified legal and tax advisor in your jurisdiction before deploying.

The list below is a starting point for that conversation — not a replacement for it:

1. **Ownership structure and jurisdiction** — where the legal entity that holds the partner contract is incorporated, and how that interacts with the residency of the operators.
2. **Market targeting and product visibility** — which markets you may legally serve, and which product categories (PvP, lotto, conservative staking, dynamic staking) you may make visible to those markets.
3. **Promotional methods and material compliance** — review of the marketing channels and creative material you intend to use, against the advertising rules in each target market.
4. **Process for converting earnings to fiat** — how on-chain CELT revenue is converted to local currency and what reporting that triggers.
5. **Tax obligations and accounting** — treatment of CELT-denominated revenue, of token-price fluctuations between accrual and conversion, and of partner-fee payouts.
