Effective Date: May 12, 2026 · Version 2.0

By accessing or using AlphaTerminal ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and AlphaTerminal ("we", "us", or "our"). By creating an account, you confirm you are at least 18 years of age (17 in some jurisdictions) and have the legal capacity to enter this agreement.

The Service is a technology platform only. AlphaTerminal is not a licensed financial advisor, broker-dealer, investment advisor, or financial institution. Nothing on the platform constitutes financial, investment, legal, or tax advice.
3. Not Financial Advice — Critical Disclaimer
AlphaTerminal is a tool. It is not your advisor.
All content on AlphaTerminal — including AI signals, trade recommendations, market analysis, copy trading data, arbitrage alerts, and educational content — is provided for informational purposes only. This content does not constitute:
- Investment advice or recommendations
- An offer or solicitation to buy or sell any security or digital asset
- A guarantee of any investment outcome or return
- Legal, tax, or accounting advice
You are solely responsible for your own investment decisions. You should consult a licensed financial advisor before making investment decisions. AlphaTerminal makes no warranties regarding accuracy of market data, signal performance, or AI analysis.
4. Risk Warnings
4.1 Cryptocurrency Risk
Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile. Prices can move dramatically in short periods. You may lose all of your invested capital. Cryptocurrency trading is not suitable for all investors.
4.2 Automated Trading Risk
Automated trading features including the AI Auto-Trader, Copy Trading, Grid Bots, and Arbitrage Bot carry additional risks:
- Technical failures may result in missed trades or unintended orders
- Market conditions can change faster than automated systems respond
- Slippage, liquidity issues, and exchange outages may affect execution
- Past performance of any strategy or bot is not indicative of future results
- You remain responsible for all trades executed through your account
4.3 Copy Trading Risk
When using copy trading features, you are automatically replicating trades of other users or on-chain wallets. The traders or wallets you copy may lose money. Copying a profitable trader does not guarantee you will achieve the same results due to differences in timing, position size, and market conditions.
4.4 AI Signal Risk
AI-generated signals are based on pattern recognition and data analysis. They are not predictions. AI models can and do generate incorrect signals. No signal system has a 100% accuracy rate. Never trade solely on the basis of an AI signal without your own analysis.
