Terms of Use
Effective Date: February 18, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using the Bithaven platform, website (bithaven.ai), APIs, MCP server, SDK, dashboard, or any related services (collectively, the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use (“Terms”). If you do not agree to all of these Terms, you may not access or use the Service. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“User,” “you,” or “your”) and Bithaven (“Bithaven,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Your continued use of the Service after any modification constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
2. Description of Service
Bithaven provides a custodial finance platform that enables users to fund, control, and monitor spending by AI agents using digital assets, including but not limited to USDC on the Base Layer 2 blockchain network. The Service includes web-based dashboards, API endpoints, MCP (Model Context Protocol) server integrations, policy engines, and related tools.
Bithaven is a technology platform. We do not provide financial advice, investment advice, brokerage services, or act as a money transmitter except to the extent required by applicable law and for which we hold appropriate licenses.
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years of age (or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction) to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms. You further represent that you are not located in, organized in, or a resident of any jurisdiction where use of the Service or digital asset transactions would be prohibited or restricted by applicable law.
4. Account Responsibilities
You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your account credentials, API keys, and any other authentication tokens associated with your account. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account, whether or not authorized by you.
You agree to immediately notify Bithaven of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. Bithaven will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your account credentials.
5. AI Agent Activity — User Responsibility
YOU ARE SOLELY AND ENTIRELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL ACTIONS TAKEN BY AI AGENTS OPERATING UNDER YOUR ACCOUNT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ALL TRANSACTIONS, PAYMENTS, AND FUND TRANSFERS INITIATED BY SUCH AGENTS.
Bithaven provides tools for you to configure spending policies, transaction limits, address whitelists, and approval workflows to constrain agent behavior. However, the configuration, adequacy, and enforcement of these controls is your responsibility. You acknowledge that:
- AI agents may behave unpredictably, make errors, or take actions you did not intend.
- Policy configurations are set by you and may contain errors or omissions.
- Bithaven does not control, direct, or supervise the behavior of any AI agent connected to the Service.
- You are responsible for monitoring agent activity and intervening when necessary.
- Transactions executed within your configured policies are considered authorized by you.
- Bithaven bears no responsibility for financial losses resulting from agent actions, regardless of whether those actions were intended, anticipated, or within configured policy parameters.
6. Digital Asset Risks
You acknowledge and accept that digital asset transactions involve significant risks, including but not limited to:
- Volatility in digital asset values.
- Irreversibility of blockchain transactions — once confirmed on-chain, transactions generally cannot be reversed, cancelled, or refunded.
- Smart contract vulnerabilities, including in third-party contracts such as the USDC token contract.
- Blockchain network congestion, delays, or failures.
- Regulatory changes that may affect the legality or availability of digital asset services in your jurisdiction.
- Loss of funds due to incorrect recipient addresses, network errors, or protocol-level issues.
- Bridge, oracle, or Layer 2 network failures that may affect fund availability or transaction finality.
YOU ACCEPT ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH DIGITAL ASSET TRANSACTIONS CONDUCTED THROUGH THE SERVICE. BITHAVEN IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSSES ARISING FROM THE INHERENT RISKS OF BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY OR DIGITAL ASSETS.
7. Prohibited Uses
You agree not to use the Service to:
- Violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party rights.

- Circumvent or attempt to circumvent any policy controls, rate limits, or security measures.
- Facilitate transactions with sanctioned persons, entities, or jurisdictions.
- Interfere with, disrupt, or compromise the integrity or security of the Service.
- Use the Service for any purpose that is deceptive, harmful, or abusive.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of proprietary components of the Service.
- Resell or redistribute access to the Service without authorization.
Bithaven reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account and freeze associated funds if we reasonably believe you have engaged in prohibited conduct.
8. Fees and Payments
Use of the Service may be subject to transaction fees, subscription fees, or other charges as published on our pricing page or as otherwise communicated to you. Bithaven reserves the right to change its fee structure at any time with reasonable notice. Fees paid are non-refundable except as required by applicable law.
9. Intellectual Property
The Service, including all software, designs, text, graphics, and other content, is owned by Bithaven or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service in accordance with these Terms. Open-source components of the Service (such as the MCP client SDK) are licensed under their respective open-source licenses.
10. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE. BITHAVEN EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, BITHAVEN DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. BITHAVEN MAKES NO WARRANTY REGARDING THE ACCURACY, TIMELINESS, OR COMPLETENESS OF INFORMATION PROVIDED THROUGH THE SERVICE, INCLUDING BALANCE DISPLAYS, TRANSACTION STATUSES, OR POLICY EVALUATION RESULTS.
11. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL BITHAVEN, ITS AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, DIGITAL ASSETS, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION OR THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE), EVEN IF BITHAVEN HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BITHAVEN’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL FEES PAID BY YOU TO BITHAVEN IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).
THIS LIMITATION APPLIES TO ALL CLAIMS, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT BITHAVEN HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU IN FULL.
12. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Bithaven and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) any actions taken by AI agents operating under your account; (c) your violation of these Terms; (d) your violation of any applicable law or regulation; or (e) your violation of any third-party rights.
13. Service Availability and Termination
Bithaven may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, with or without notice. We may also suspend or terminate your account at our sole discretion if we believe you have violated these Terms or for any other reason. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately. You will have a reasonable period to withdraw any remaining funds, subject to applicable law, compliance requirements, and these Terms.
14. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved through binding arbitration administered in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA). The arbitration shall be conducted in English and take place in Wilmington, Delaware, or remotely as agreed by the parties.
YOU AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than arbitration, you waive any right to a jury trial.
15. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
16. Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Bithaven with respect to the Service and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, and communications, whether written or oral.
