Terms of Use

Using Kaspa News

These terms apply to the Kaspa News website and companion app. By using the service, you agree to these terms. Our Privacy Policy explains how personal information is handled.

Articles, Videos, GitHub, Reddit, Mood and Radar are free to browse. Feed includes three free sample posts. Full access to Feed, Best, Devs, Eco, Focused and Media requires an account with active Pro access.

Pro payments and cancellation

Card subscriptions cost $1.00 USD per month and renew automatically until cancelled. When new card subscriptions are closed, existing ones keep renewing and keep their Pro and billing portal until they are cancelled. Check the price and payment details shown before paying. Cancel renewal in Settings using Cancel Stripe subscription or Manage subscription; access continues until the paid period ends. Signing out or uninstalling the app does not cancel a subscription.

The one-time KAS payment (while it is offered) gives 31 days of access, without automatic renewal; access already paid this way runs to its end after the offer closes. Use the exact amount and address shown in your payment instructions. Access starts after payment verification. If confirmation is delayed, check the payment status before sending again. We cannot reverse a transaction on the Kaspa BlockDAG.

For missing access, duplicate payments, cancellation or refund requests, email hello@kaspa.news with your account email and payment reference. Refunds are reviewed individually, subject to any cancellation, refund or other consumer rights that apply to you. These terms do not remove those rights.

KAS subscription

Where it is offered on kaspa.news, Pro can be paid from KAS you lock in a coin on the Kaspa network that follows fixed rules written into the coin itself (a covenant). It costs 50 KAS a month, the same for everyone. You choose 1 to 6 whole months and pay them in one deposit from your own wallet. The price in KAS is fixed for that subscription and cannot be changed while it runs.

Month 1 is paid to Kaspa News as soon as your deposit arrives. Each next month is taken from your coin when it is one month old (counted in network steps, about 30 days, never earlier) and only to Kaspa News' fixed receiving address. Pro runs to the end of the last month paid, plus two days of margin. If a payment that is due waits on our side, for example because network fees are high or our node is down, Pro stays on for up to 14 more days.

You can cancel at any time with your wallet, by signing a cancel message or with a coin of your own. Every month not yet paid comes back to your wallet address in the same step. The month in progress is not refunded and there are no partial refunds. A deposit that cannot pay a whole month goes straight back. Kaspa News does not itself take payments from a second deposit, or from the part of a deposit beyond 6 months, and sends that KAS back when you cancel. The coin's rules still let anyone take a month from it when that month falls due (at once for a new deposit, then about every 30 days): always exactly 50 KAS, only to Kaspa News' fixed address and never early, as for your first deposit. Every month taken this way counts as a paid month and gives you a month of Pro. A coin too small to send back on its own may stay where it is.

Every spend from the coin leaves a small network fee, at most 0.1 KAS each time: for a monthly payment it comes out of the month Kaspa News receives, for a refund or cancel out of what comes back to you. If network fees rise above that limit, payments, refunds and cancels wait until fees fall; nothing is lost.

Kaspa News holds no key that can move your locked KAS anywhere else: the coin can only pay one month at a time to Kaspa News' fixed address when that month is due, or go back to your own address. Kaspa News may end a subscription early, for example when the KAS price changes a lot, and can do so only by sending everything left back to you: the month you already paid stays yours, with Pro to its end, and every month not yet paid comes back to you. It cannot change the price, the months or the receiving address of a running subscription, and it cannot reverse a transaction on the Kaspa BlockDAG. Your wallet and its keys are yours alone: if you lose your wallet, nobody can cancel for you, the months run out as set, and anything left goes back to your address.

Cancelling happens on kaspa.news, on the subscription page, with your wallet. If kaspa.news is unavailable, your KAS stays safe in the coin and can still only go back to you or pay months as they fall due. Technical users can also cancel without kaspa.news by building the cancel transaction themselves with the Kaspa SDK from the subscription's public contract values (the page lists them under “Check this address yourself”); Kaspa News offers no separate cancel tool or download. Deleting your Kaspa News account does not stop a running subscription, so cancel it first.

Subscriptions on Kaspa's test network use test KAS, which has no value, and never give real Pro. Only subscriptions on Kaspa's main network pay real KAS and give real Pro.

Promotional passes

A valid promotional code grants 31 days of Pro without automatic renewal. Redeem before the campaign deadline using a verified account. One promotional pass is available per account, subject to the offer's eligibility rules; accounts with existing access, a card subscription or a pending KAS payment may be ineligible. Check your confirmed expiry in Settings.

Accounts and acceptable use

Keep your sign-in details secure. Do not share or resell Pro access, bypass access controls, disrupt the service, or collect content at abusive rates. Access may be restricted to address misuse or protect the service. You can delete your account in Settings. Deletion is permanent, ends Pro access and immediately ends any active card subscription; it is different from cancelling renewal.

Information and limitations

Content is for information, not financial, investment, legal, tax or trading advice. Articles may use AI assistance. Feed labels, rankings, Mood readings and Radar research use automation and can contain mistakes. Source posts express their authors' views; inclusion does not verify a claim or endorse a project.

Feeds update on a schedule and may have delays, gaps or unavailable sources. Mood is a sentiment sample, not a price forecast. Radar profiles are research summaries, not project audits.
