BitClave
BitClave — a reference card for a crypto project: what the product does and how verifiable the project’s key claims are; also — alignment with the Decentralized AI thesis (DecAI Fit).
BitClave — a project/organization with public repositories of smart contracts and tooling (Tier‑1 GitHub); token (symbol: —).
Disclaimer
Important: this page is a reference overview of the project. Within DecAIHub, we separately record a verification based on open sources within the AI thesis (what is real AI/onchain/why a token, and which sources this is based on).
This is not financial advice and not a recommendation to buy/sell/hold any asset. We do not assess price, returns, or entry/exit timing.
Conclusions are based on publicly available materials found as of the verification date. The absence of confirmation does not imply the absence of the technology.
TL;DR (for readers who are not into AI)
- What it is: a set of BASE platform components (node + client SDK + demo dApp) for working with encrypted user data and a data access request protocol; plus a set of smart contracts, including the ERC‑20 CAT token.
- Who it’s for: developers/integrators who need an SDK/Node to work with BASE; users who store and share data via the access request protocol.
- Why onchain/token: the ERC‑20 CAT token contract is confirmed; no Tier‑1 confirmation that BASE has any other onchain logic (other than the token) was found (see Evidence).
How it works (very briefly)
- The developer does: integrates
base-client-jsand/or spins upbase-node(per the repositories) to work with data and access requests. - The system does: stores data in encrypted form; access to data is granted/denied via the API per the access request protocol.
- The user gets: an interface/flow for adding data and managing access (example — the demo dApp).
- Where the blockchain is: the onchain artifact is confirmed for the CAT token (Ethereum). The use of onchain in the BASE protocol, other than the token, is not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Token role: not confirmed by Tier‑1 in the public repositories/documentation (see Evidence).

General project overview
Per Tier‑1 sources (the official GitHub repositories), the project includes BASE platform components: base-node (the Node component), base-client-js (the client library), a demo dApp, as well as services/modules for the platform (for example, base-matcher for matchmaking offers and search requests).
The demo dApp and the SDK describe a flow where user data is encrypted on the client side, and access to data is granted via an access request protocol (approve/deny). Separately, the ERC‑20 CAT token and the repository of the token/crowdsale smart contracts are confirmed, including the OpenZeppelin Security audit of the token contracts.
Features/modules
base-node: the BASE Node component (API implementation).base-client-js: the client library for interacting with BASE.base-client-demo: a demo dApp showing the login/data/access request flow.base-matcher: the module for matchmaking offers and search requests in BASE.- The CAT token smart contracts (including
CAToken.sol).
Typical scenarios
- Scenario 1: a user adds/updates data pairs in BASE via the demo dApp (the data is encrypted on the client).
- Scenario 2: an entity requests access to the user’s data via the API; the user approves/denies; upon approval the data is shared only with the request initiator.
- Scenario 3: the matchmaking service matches search requests with offers and writes the results back to BASE.
Getting started (wallet/network)
- What you need: the SDK/Node from the official repositories; for the dev environment, the instructions mention a local blockchain (ganache) and Postgres for
base-node. - Network/chain: Ethereum (per the token contract).
- Fees: for the Ethereum token, the standard Ethereum network fees apply; fees/payments at the BASE protocol level are not confirmed by Tier‑1.
Architecture/tech (non‑AI)
- Components:
base-node(API),base-client-js(client library), demo dApp,base-matcher(matchmaking), auth SDK/widget. - Participant roles: users (data owners), integrators/partners (use the SDK), platform services/modules (for example, matcher).
- Where logic runs: encryption — on the client; data exchange — via the
base-nodeAPI; matchmaking — in a separate module (matcher). - Dependencies: the dev instructions mention ganache (a local blockchain) and Postgres for
base-node.
Token/economics (expanded, no forecasts)
- Token utility: not confirmed by Tier‑1 (no description of the token’s role in the product flows was found in the available BASE repositories).
- Protocol necessity drivers: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Who pays fees: Ethereum network fees are paid by the senders of CAT token transactions; other payments/fees in BASE are not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Where fees go: to the miners/validators of the Ethereum network (standard gas logic).
- Issuance/burn: not confirmed by Tier‑1 in the available sources.
- Security/incentive mechanisms: at the token level, standard mechanisms (pausable, minting) are present in the contract code; an economic incentive model for the product is not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Distribution and token issuance schedule: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Treasury: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
Governance
- Who makes decisions: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- How protocol parameters change: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Where decisions are discussed/made: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Keys/multisig: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
Security and incidents
- Audits: there is a public OpenZeppelin Security audit of the CAT token contracts (no critical/high severity per the report).
- Bug bounty: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Incidents: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Threat model: partially described via encryption/access control practices (client‑side encryption, approve/deny), but a formal threat model is not confirmed by Tier‑1.
Project status and timeline
- Current status: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Key releases/milestones: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Roadmap: No Tier‑1 roadmap found.
Ecosystem/integrations
- Integrations: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Partners: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
- Where it’s actually used: not confirmed by Tier‑1.
AI component of the project
- What is real AI here? Per Tier‑1 sources, no confirmation of an AI component or AI intent/roadmap was found.
- What is truly onchain? The token contract in the Ethereum explorer.
- Why is a token needed? Not confirmed by Tier‑1 (no description of the necessity of the token for the product was found in the available sources).
- Red flags (based on the information found): there is a token, but a Tier‑1 description of its role in the product is not identified; the product’s onchain logic other than the token is not confirmed by Tier‑1.
