  \ LICENSEE TO THE LICENSOR FOR THE LICENSED WORK.\n\nLimited Grant of Rights:  \nThe Licensee\

  \ include offering the Licensed Work to third parties as a public, permissionless Blockchain\
  \ Network. This License does not provide any warranties, support, or other protections beyond\
  \ the right to use the software as specified."
