Editorial Guidelines

Accuracy

We follow the cardinal rule of reporting—unbiased opinion while reporting. We make sure that the information provided remains neutral in tone and treatment of subject. Our writers refrain from reporting opinionated coverage or advertising assets, exchanges, or protocols without giving full disclosure. However, we regret any sensationalizations, clickbait headlines, or alarmist narratives that could mislead the public. Our sole mission is to inform, not influence or orchestrate emotional responses.

Neutrality

We follow the cardinal rule of reporting—unbiased opinion while reporting. We make sure that the information provided remains neutral in tone and treatment of subject. Our writers refrain from reporting opinionated coverage or advertising assets, exchanges, or protocols without giving full disclosure. However, we regret any sensationalizations, clickbait headlines, or alarmist narratives that could mislead the public. Our sole mission is to inform, not influence or orchestrate emotional responses.

Transparency

We believe transparency is a cornerstone of ethical journalism. Every source cited must be attributed clearly. If a source cannot be named (e.g., whistleblower or internal leak), editorial justification must be documented and approved. Additionally, contributors must disclose any financial interest or personal connection with any project, asset, or entity they report on.

Editorial staff and freelance writers alike are expected to uphold strict conflict-of-interest policies to protect our readers’ trust. We start with the basics of a crypto asset, which constitutes 40% of the overall weighting for our rating. We consider the following key factors as part of the fundamentals of a project.

Responsibility

The speculative nature of cryptocurrencies adds an unsaid responsibility of informing the readers about the uncertainty and risk. We take proper care before publishing any misinformation, fear-induced narratives, or hype. We do not recommend any pump-and-dump schemes or misleading token information.

Inclusivity

We create content to help readers across the world learn and remain informed about the cryptocurrency and the blockchain world. To maintain this standard, we refrain from adapting any unnecessary jargon and try to make the information piece easy to understand, accessible, and informative. Whenever technical terminology is used, we explain the context by linking them to educational resources. Our aim is to democratize information related to blockchain technology and the entire ecosystem.

In-Depth Research

Our process begins with deep research work from various sections such as original source, global trends, social channels, and others. We then identify topics that would matter the most to our readers. Our advanced research data tools and market intelligence aid in creating meaningful and relevant content.

Accuracy Checks

Fact-checking is the cornerstone of our efforts. Each piece of content goes through a rigorous fact-checking and accuracy-authentication process to ensure that facts, figures, and quotes are correct. We cite the original source to ensure that the information is correct. Our team cross-references various trusted sources and then validates the statistics and reviews original material to eradicate the chance of any misleading content. This helps us uphold the credibility and high standard of our reporting.

Editorial Excellence

Our editorial team uses a comprehensive content analysis process. Each article is meticulously edited for tone, clarity, grammatical accuracy, AI checks, and adherence to style guidelines.
