Terms of use

What you can rely on from Metagraphed, what you cannot, and the few things we ask in return.

What this service is

Metagraphed is an independent, unofficial explorer and integration registry for Bittensor. It is not an OpenTensor or Bittensor Foundation product, and nothing here is endorsed by them.

The REST API, GraphQL endpoint, and MCP server are public and read-only. Most of the surface needs no account.

Accuracy, and what you should not rely on

Data is provided as is. We read the chain, probe public endpoints, and publish what we observe, with freshness and provenance attached wherever we can. That is a best effort, not a guarantee: a reading can be stale, an endpoint can be misconfigured, and a derived figure can be wrong.

Nothing here is financial advice. Economic figures — emissions, yields, prices, stake previews — are informational, frequently approximate, and must not be the sole basis for a financial decision. Verify against the chain before acting on anything that moves money.

We make no uptime guarantee and offer no SLA on the free tier.

Fair use

Please:

  • Stay within the published rate limits — see auth.md. Authenticating raises them.
  • Send a User-Agent that identifies your client, so we can tell a problem with your integration from a problem with ours.
  • Cache what you can. Most artifacts are edge-cached and carry validators; honouring them costs you nothing and costs us less.
  • Do not attempt to bypass rate limits, quotas, or access controls, including by rotating identities to evade them.

We may throttle or block an account or client that makes the service worse for everyone else. Where we do, the response says so with a reason code rather than failing silently.

Calling subnet APIs through us

The registry can call a catalogued subnet’s own API on your behalf. When it does, you are using their service, under their terms, with your credential. We do not obtain credentials for you, we grant no authority you did not already have calling that API directly, and we are not responsible for what a third-party surface does with a request you asked us to forward.

Non-custodial by design

We never hold your keys, seed phrases, or funds. Any signing happens in your own wallet, locally. We cannot move your assets, and we cannot recover them.

Using the data

Chain data is public information. Our derived artifacts, schemas, and registry records are published so they can be used — build on them. If you redistribute them at scale, attribution is appreciated and a link back helps people find the source of a figure they want to check.

The code is open source; see the repository for its licence, which governs the code rather than this service.

Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Metagraphed is provided without warranty of any kind, and we are not liable for any loss arising from use of, or inability to use, this service or its data — including trading losses, missed opportunities, or downstream failures in systems that depend on it.

Changes

These terms live in the same repository as the code, so any change is visible in the commit history. Continuing to use the service after a change means accepting it.
