Any visual or thematic similarity to retro handheld games or monster-collecting concepts is purely coincidental, inspirational, and for non-commercial entertainment and educational purposes only. No copyrighted assets, trademarks, sprites, music, code, or intellectual property from Nintendo, The Pokémon Company, or any third party have been used. This is a completely original creation.

REWARDS & $HOLO TOKEN DISCLAIMER: Holo Bitz is 100% free to play with no paywall. Linking a Solana wallet is entirely optional and grants an in-game reward boost on XP & monster stats only (Standard 1.2×, Solana Seeker / mobile 1.8×, plus a small bonus for holding $HOLO tokens, capped at 2.2×). In-game currency, XP, stats, and any future $HOLO token have no monetary value, are not an investment, security, or financial instrument, and are provided for entertainment only. Nothing in this game is financial, legal, or tax advice. Cryptocurrency carries risk; never spend more than you can afford to lose. You are solely responsible for your wallet, keys, and any on-chain activity. Token rewards are forward-looking and may change or never launch.

PRIVACY & DATA: We store only your public wallet address and your game save (which is encrypted at rest) to sync progress across your devices. We never ask for, see, or store your private keys or seed phrase. We do not sell your data. Connecting a wallet only proves ownership via a signature — it never moves funds.

FAIR PLAY: Play fair. Cheating, exploiting bugs, automating play, or tampering with saves or network requests may result in loss of rewards or account suspension. All accounts and balances are subject to server-side validation.
