Terms of Service

Last updated: February 25, 2026

By accessing and using ChainCost (chaincost.app), you agree to the following terms and conditions. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use the site.

1. Nature of Service

ChainCost is a free informational tool that provides estimated cryptocurrency transfer fee comparisons. We aggregate publicly available data from blockchain networks and exchange fee schedules to help users estimate transaction costs.

ChainCost does not:

  • Execute, facilitate, or process any cryptocurrency transactions
  • Hold, custody, or manage any cryptocurrency or funds
  • Provide financial, investment, tax, or legal advice
  • Guarantee the accuracy of fee estimates at the time of your transaction
  • Operate as a money services business, exchange, or broker

2. Fee Estimates Are Not Guarantees

All fee data displayed on ChainCost is provided for informational purposes only. Cryptocurrency network fees fluctuate constantly based on network congestion, gas prices, and other factors. Exchange withdrawal fees are subject to change at any time without notice.

You must always verify the actual fees on your exchange or wallet before confirming any transaction. ChainCost is not responsible for any discrepancies between estimated and actual fees.

3. No Financial Advice

Nothing on ChainCost constitutes financial advice, investment advice, trading advice, or any other kind of professional advice. The information provided is general in nature and should not be relied upon for making financial decisions. You are solely responsible for your own investment and transaction decisions.

4. Accuracy of Information

We make reasonable efforts to ensure the accuracy of the information presented on ChainCost, including:

  • Fetching live network gas fees from public blockchain APIs
  • Regularly updating exchange withdrawal fee databases
  • Fact-checking guide content against official exchange documentation

However, we do not warrant that the information is always accurate, complete, or current. Data may be delayed, incomplete, or contain errors. Use it as a starting point for your own research, not as a definitive source.

5. Third-Party Links and Affiliate Disclosure

ChainCost contains links to third-party websites, including cryptocurrency exchanges. Some of these links are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you sign up through them. This commission comes from the exchange, not from you — it does not increase your fees.

We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of third-party websites. Visiting external links is at your own risk. We encourage you to read the terms of service and privacy policies of any third-party site you visit.

6. Intellectual Property

All original content on ChainCost — including text, graphics, logos, design, and code — is the property of ChainCost and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from our content without written permission, except for personal, non-commercial use.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use ChainCost for any unlawful purpose
  • Attempt to scrape, crawl, or automatically extract data from the site in bulk
  • Interfere with the site's operation, security, or availability
  • Misrepresent your identity or affiliation with ChainCost
  • Use the site to distribute malware, spam, or harmful content

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, ChainCost and its operators shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages arising from:

  • Your use of or inability to use the site
  • Any errors or inaccuracies in fee estimates or other data
  • Financial losses resulting from cryptocurrency transactions
  • Actions taken based on information found on ChainCost
  • Unauthorized access to or alteration of your data

You use ChainCost entirely at your own risk.

9. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless ChainCost, its operators, and affiliates from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including legal fees) arising from your use of the site or violation of these terms.

10. Modifications

We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Continued use of ChainCost after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

11. Governing Law

These terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States. Any disputes arising from these terms or your use of ChainCost shall be resolved in accordance with applicable law.
