A settlement agreement is a legally binding contract that resolves a dispute between two or more parties without proceeding to a full trial or protracted litigation. In the context of digital assets, these agreements can address disputes over asset ownership, smart contract execution failures, or regulatory violations. They often outline terms for compensation, future conduct, or specific actions to be taken. Such agreements aim to provide a definitive resolution to contentious matters.
