4.1.2. As defined in these Terms, the Services include any services available on the Site and provided by XBBIT.

4.1.3. XBBIT may, at our discretion and without liability to you, with or without prior notice and at any time, modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, all or any portion of any Services.

An “Order” is created when you enter instructions to the system to make a Trade using the Services. When you enter an Order, you authorize XBBIT to make a Trade of the specified Token for all, or part of the specified amount on a spot basis. You agree to pay XBBIT the applicable fees and authorize XBBIT to deduct these fees from your wallet or from the Trade amount.

4.3.4. Order Matching and Trade Execution: Upon placing an order, your account will be updated to reflect the open Order and your Order will be included in the order book for matching. Once the Services match all or part of your order with that of another user, the Services will execute a Trade. Once a Trade has been executed partially or completely, your account will be updated accordingly. Orders will remain open until they are executed or canceled. In order to execute a Trade, you authorize XBBIT to take complete control over the Tokens you are disposing of in the Trade.

4.3.5. Cancellations: You will be able to cancel an order if it has not been executed yet. If the Order has been matched and the Trade executed, you will not be allowed to cancel, change, withdraw or rescind your authorization for XBBIT to execute the Order. This applies to orders that have been partially matched or executed. XBBIT reserves the right to refuse the cancellation of a Market Order once it has been submitted.

4.3.6. Insufficient Funds: In the event your account does not have sufficient funds to execute the Trade, XBBIT may cancel the entire Order, or only fulfill the part of the Order for which you have sufficient funds.

4.3.7. Token availability: XBBIT in its sole discretion determines which Tokens and the specific blockchain thereof will be made available for trading, transferring, and storing on the Services. Unless otherwise required by law enforcement or other regulatory bodies, XBBIT will make reasonable efforts to notify you of any changes to the supported Tokens. If you do not remove your Tokens or other assets to an external wallet address or account prior to the cessation of support on the Services, you may lose all or part of your Tokens or other assets. In such cases, XBBIT will not be liable for any losses, liabilities, costs, or expenses related to its decision to remove support for any Token or asset.

4.4. Fork and Airdrops: You remain the lawful and beneficial owner of any assets and Tokens in your account and the beneficial owner of additional assets resulting from any applicable (i) network fork that is supported by XBBIT and (ii) airdrop or similar distribution of Digital Currency that is supported by XBBIT; provided, that XBBIT retains sole discretion and has no obligation to support any particular forks, airdrops or similar distribution and such support remain in all instances subject to the Terms.

7. Tax Risk

7.1. The allocation or purchase of Token and other Digital Currency available on XBBIT platform (in whatever form) as well as the exchange, the holding and the alienation of Token and other Digital Currency available on XBBIT platform (in whatever form) and/or any other action or transaction related to Tokens and other Digital Currency available on XBBIT platform (in whatever form) may trigger tax consequences for you, including, but not limited to, being required to declare your digital asset portfolio, trades and profits to the competent tax authorities as well as to calculate and pay taxes triggered by your transactions and/or the holding of your Digital Currency. Such tax consequences often (but not always) depend on the tax laws of the country of your permanent residence and the international tax treaties that country has ratified. We note that while several countries have already implemented various tax regulations for Digital Currency, further changes and/or additional tax regulations are to be expected. XBBIT may under certain circumstances (now and/or in the future) be required to deduct withholding tax. Only you are responsible to comply with all national and international tax laws from time to time applicable to you by virtue of using XBBIT platform and holding, trading and/or exchanging the Digital Currency offered on XBBIT platform at all times and XBBIT shall not be required to inform or warn you about any existing or pending tax implications in connection with XBBIT platform (other than when we have made a withholding tax deduction) and does not make any representations whatsoever in respect to any tax consequences triggered by using XBBIT platform and/or holding, trading and/or exchanging the Digital Currency offered on XBBit platform.

7.2. Before you become a XBBIT Client or make any XBBIT Client Offer, as well as from time to time (e.g. in connection with the annual tax return or financial statements) and as may be required in accordance with the tax laws applicable to you, we thus advise you to consult a tax advisor (i) about the tax consequences and their economic consequences in connection with using XBBIT Platform and holding, trading and/or exchanging the Digital Currency offered on XBBIT Platform and (ii) to ensure that you are able to take all steps required to comply with all applicable tax laws when using XBBit Platform and holding, trading and/or exchanging the Digital Currency offered on XBBIT Platform.
