1. Purpose & Scope

This agreement establishes the terms of membership for being an officially recognized ReFi Local Node as part of the ReFi DAO global network. By signing this agreement onchain, the signer affirms their role as a Local Node Leader for a specific region or locality, and enters into this commitment on behalf of the Local Node they are representing.

This agreement is a decentralized governance commitment and does not create a legal partnership, employment relationship, or joint venture. Rather, it provides a mutually agreed framework for collaboration, support, and alignment between ReFi DAO Global and ReFi Local Nodes.

The signer acknowledges that future updates to the legal custodianship of ReFi DAO’s brand or coordination infrastructure — such as stewardship by a foundation or nonprofit entity — may lead to reasonable amendments of this agreement, as outlined in Section 9.
