Terms of Membership

1. Membership and tiers

Reading the daily reports, market information and using Crypto Concierge are free for everyone and need no account. Chat rooms are for members. There are two paid tiers: Shark ($99 a month or $900 a year) and Whale ($499 a month or $4,500 a year). Prices are shown in US dollars and paid in crypto (see section 3).

Shark members may enter the Shark rooms. Whale members may enter the Whale rooms and every Shark room. Public visitors have no chat access. You must be at least 18 and able to enter a binding contract.

2. Usernames and anonymity

Members are known to each other only by a username, which you choose or generate. Do not use your real name, do not share personal details, and do not try to identify another member. We do not collect real names or photos. You sign in with an email address or a passkey, never with the username. A username is 3 to 20 letters, numbers or underscores; it may not be an email address, phone number, @handle or web address, may not use names kept for the team (admin, mod, OCT, support and similar), and may be changed once every 30 days. A name you give up is held back from others for 90 days.

3. Verification

Shark requires a verified balance of 1 BTC and Whale requires 5 BTC, counted across one or more wallets. “Or equivalent” means combined holdings in BTC, SOL, ETH and USDT, valued in BTC at the time of the check. You verify by signing a free message in each wallet, separately. No funds move, no seed phrase is shared and no custody is taken. We read the balances once, add them, assign a Shark or Whale badge and delete every address. We may ask you to re-check from time to time, in the same way. If a Whale re-check finds less than 5 BTC but at least 1 BTC, your badge steps down to Shark; below 1 BTC, the badge is removed.

4. Payments

Payments are accepted in crypto only: BTC (Bitcoin network), SOL (Solana network), ETH (Ethereum mainnet) and USDT (TRC-20, TRON network). Each coin has its own company receiving wallet, whose address is shown at checkout. You must send each coin on its own network only; a payment sent on a different network is lost and we cannot recover it. No other payment method is accepted. You pay any network fees. We recommend paying from a fresh wallet that is not linked to your main holdings. We keep only the address you paid from, as the reference that confirms a payment arrived. We keep no transaction hash and no other payment data. Memberships are paid in advance for a month or a year and do not renew automatically; we send a reminder before a period ends. Blockchain payments are public and cannot be reversed by us.

Cancellation and refund terms are for counsel to settle, and any rights you have under the law of the place where you live are not affected.

5. One seat and sessions

A membership is for one person. It allows one active session at a time, on at most two trusted devices, and a new sign-in ends an older one. Sessions end after 30 minutes without activity and after 12 hours at most. If we see an unusual change of location between sign-ins we may end your sessions and ask you to re-confirm, and we may review the account, suspend it or revoke the seat if a membership appears to be shared. Sharing a membership or an account is a breach of these Terms.

6. Conduct

Members agree to the House Rules. Breach, including unsolicited direct messages, undisclosed promotion or any attempt to identify another member, may result in removal, and may mean no refund of the current period.

7. No financial advice

Nothing published or discussed in On Chain Tribe, including daily reports, mood reads and answers from Crypto Concierge, is financial, investment, legal or tax advice, or an offer or recommendation. All content is general commentary. You are solely responsible for your own decisions and capital. See the risk disclosure.

Crypto Crime coverage in the reports and the newsletter relies on public records only. We name a person or company only when there is an official record, such as a conviction, formal charge, sanction or regulator action, and we link the source. A charge is an allegation, not a finding of guilt. We describe other incidents without naming anyone and we do not speculate. Corrections may be requested through the contact details in the Operator section.

8. Crypto Concierge

Crypto Concierge is an automated tool, free for everyone, with a fair-use limit that may be applied quietly to prevent abuse. It may be wrong or out of date, it does not give personal advice, and it never reveals an individual member’s posts, holdings or identity. Members’ questions about their rooms are answered with themes only, and only for the rooms their tier allows.

9. Tribe Trades

Tribe Trades is our name for products in preparation: a trading platform, a P2P Desk, a Launchpad and a Training platform. None of them is a live service. If any launches, any buying or selling would be provided by licensed third-party partners under their own terms, only where the law allows, and may be unavailable in some countries. The P2P Desk on this site is a demonstration with example listings only.

10. Content and confidentiality

Material shared inside the rooms is confidential. Members must not reproduce, screenshot or forward it. You keep ownership of what you post and grant us a limited licence to display it within the community.

11. Liability and changes

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for losses arising from decisions you make. We may update these Terms as the community evolves, and will tell members of material changes.
