You agree and understand that in some cases, deposits of cryptocurrencies may be delayed due to downtime, congestion, or interruptions in the cryptocurrency networks. "Cryptocurrency" refers to any digital asset, virtual currency, cryptocurrency, cryptographic token, or other tokenized value supported by the service.
4.2. Withdrawal of Fiat Currency or Cryptocurrency. You can transfer fiat currency and cryptocurrency from your Bitoy account to other accounts or wallets owned by you (collectively referred to as "Customer Assets"). The amount of fiat currency or cryptocurrency (Customer Assets) that you can withdraw, by sending it to a registered external account, will be subject to one of the following restrictions: (a) exceeding the total amount of Customer Assets required for any minimum balance requirements (including necessary requirements to fulfill your outstanding orders created) and any fees payable to Bitoy; or (b) withdrawal limits specified in any policy or notice provided by Bitoy or required by applicable law.
"Registered external account" refers to a bank account, other financial institution account, wallet software, device or service, cryptocurrency address, or similar account or service not hosted or provided by Bitoy.

In the case of fiat currency, all funds are held in a pooled deposit account provided by financial institutions that serve Bitoy and related services. All cryptocurrencies are held in one or more deposit wallets as determined by Bitoy. The amount of any fiat currency and cryptocurrency in your account will be reflected in the internal general ledger maintained as part of Bitoy's service. The general ledger balance will be recorded and posted based on assessments of deposits, transactions, and fees, as determined by these terms.
5. Transactions
5.1. Orders. You may submit requests to buy or sell cryptocurrencies, or exchange cryptocurrencies for different forms of cryptocurrencies (each referred to as an "Order") using the service, provided you ensure there are sufficient Customer Assets in your Bitoy account. Any orders entered by you and accepted by the service will be placed in one or more order books maintained by Bitoy or on behalf of Bitoy.
5.2. Freezing of Customer Assets. When you place an order, we will temporarily reserve the amount of Customer Assets required to fulfill the order, including associated fees. These assets will be unavailable for any other purpose or transaction through the service until the order is either fulfilled or canceled in accordance with these terms. If the order exceeds your Bitoy account limits, Bitoy reserves the right to cancel all or part of the order and return any Customer Assets related to the canceled order (or part thereof), minus any fees associated with the refund.
5.3. Order Matching. By submitting an order, you authorize Bitoy to match and execute all or part of your order for Customer Assets (minus any applicable fees) on a spot trading basis. Your order may be matched with orders on any order book maintained by Bitoy or on behalf of Bitoy, or may be executed directly by Bitoy or its affiliates.
5.4. Self-Trade Prevention. The service includes mechanisms designed to prevent self-trading to ensure that the same user cannot be both the maker and taker of an order or any part thereof. If your order matches with your own order (self-trade), the order (or applicable part thereof) will be invalidated without incurring fees, and only the remaining portion, if any, will be eligible for fulfillment.
5.5. Settlement. In accordance with these terms, Bitoy will settle transactions (each referred to as a "Trade") executed using the service by adjusting the general ledger balance to reflect the appropriate credit and debit on the corresponding Bitoy account. Although the Customer Assets (and any applicable fees) are used to calculate the credit and debit amounts, the transfer of Customer Assets may not necessarily occur in connection with any transaction, given that Customer Assets are held in pooled accounts and wallets.
5.6. Independent Relationship. You acknowledge and agree that: (a) in any transaction, Bitoy does not act as your broker, intermediary, agent, advisor, or in any fiduciary capacity; and (b) any communication or information provided to you by Bitoy shall not be deemed or construed as advice.

6.2. Quotes. Before completing any purchase or sale of a cryptocurrency, the service will display the amount of Customer Assets associated with the proposed transaction and the amount of cryptocurrency or fiat currency that will be credited to your account (minus any applicable fees) (each referred to as a "Quote"). Quotes are provided for informational purposes only and do not constitute an offer by Bitoy to buy or sell the referenced amount at the quoted rate. When you initiate a proposal using the service based on a Quote, the proposal represents the financial terms for the amount you provided to purchase or sell and these terms and conditions, and any additional terms provided with the Quote. Bitoy may, at its discretion, accept or reject your proposal. You agree to comply with any terms and conditions provided with the Quote as well as these terms.
6.3. Payment Methods. You may purchase cryptocurrencies from us using external payment methods accepted through the service. In doing so, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the specified payment method.

If the specified payment method cannot be verified, is invalid, or is otherwise unacceptable, your proposal will be rejected.
7. E-commerce Transactions
If you use our service to engage in the purchase or sale of goods or services, you must be aware that we have no control or responsibility over these transactions, including the quality or legality of the goods or services.

To maintain the security and integrity of the service, Bitoy may also, based on its discretion or as required by law, halt transactions to prevent further errors.

8.10. Unsupported Cryptocurrencies: Transferring unsupported cryptocurrencies to Bitoy may result in the loss, destruction, or non-return of the cryptocurrencies.

Bitoy is not responsible or liable for unsupported cryptocurrencies or any unsupported cryptocurrencies held or transferred to any Bitoy account.

25. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration
Please read this section carefully as it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us.
25.1. Mandatory Arbitration. You and Bitoy agree that any dispute, claim, lawsuit, action, cause of action, demand, or proceeding ("Dispute") arising out of or related to these terms or the Services shall be resolved through binding arbitration, and you and Bitoy hereby waive any right to have such Dispute adjudicated in court, and (b) waive any right to a trial by jury.
25.2. No Class Arbitration, Class Action, or Representative Action. Any Dispute related to these terms or the Services is personal to you and Bitoy and will be resolved solely through individual arbitration and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action, or any other type of representative proceeding. There will be no class arbitration or arbitration in which an individual attempt to resolve a Dispute as a representative of another individual or group of individuals. Moreover, a Dispute cannot be brought as a class or other type of representative action, whether inside or outside of arbitration, or on behalf of other individuals or groups of individuals.
25.3. Notice; Informal Dispute Resolution. Each party will notify the other of any Dispute that is eligible for arbitration or small claims court resolution and will attempt in good faith to resolve such Dispute informally within thirty (30) days of when it first arises. Notice to Bitoy will be sent by email to Bitoy's compliance.us@bitoy.com. Notice to you will be sent by email to the current email address listed in your account profile. Your notice must include (a) your name, postal address, email address, and telephone number, (b) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the Dispute, and (c) the specific relief sought. If you and Bitoy cannot agree on how to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the date notice is received by the applicable party, then you or Bitoy may, as appropriate and in accordance with this section 27, commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in court.
25.4. Powers of the Arbitrator. Except as limited by the FAA, these terms, and applicable AAA rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority and jurisdiction to make all procedural and substantive decisions concerning the Dispute, including whether the Dispute is arbitrable, and the authority to grant any relief available in court; however, the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct class arbitration or representative actions, which are prohibited by these terms. The arbitrator can only conduct individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one person's claims or preside over any type of class or representative proceeding.
25.5. AAA Rules. By agreeing to be bound by these terms, you either (a) acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the AAA rules, or (b) waive the opportunity to read the AAA rules and any claim that the AAA rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.
