Editorial mission

CryptoNews publishes accurate, independent, accessible journalism. We explain what happened, what is known, what remains uncertain, and why an event matters. We do not publish personalized financial advice or guarantee investment outcomes.

Accuracy and verification

Material claims should be corroborated before publication. Reporters review underlying documents, datasets, transactions, filings, code repositories, court records, or direct statements whenever reasonably available. Unverified claims are attributed and described as claims rather than facts.

  • Names, figures, dates, token symbols, quotations, and links are checked.
  • Screenshots and social posts are treated as leads, not automatic proof.
  • Wallet ownership is not assumed without reliable attribution.
  • Anonymous information requires additional corroboration.

Sources and attribution

We prefer primary sources and link to them when safe and lawful. Secondary reporting may provide context but should not replace accessible original evidence. Quotations are represented faithfully.

  • Company claims are attributed to the company.
  • Regulatory claims link to the relevant agency, filing, order, or legislation.
  • Research identifies its author, methodology, date, and limitations.
  • AI-generated summaries are not treated as sources.

News, analysis, opinion, and reviews

Readers should be able to distinguish reporting from interpretation. Analysis draws conclusions from disclosed evidence. Opinion reflects the author’s viewpoint. Reviews state their criteria and disclose material access, sponsorship, or affiliate relationships.

Conflicts of interest

Writers and editors disclose financial, employment, advisory, family, or other interests that could reasonably affect coverage. Staff may not use unpublished information for trading or personal advantage. Relevant conflicts may require disclosure, reassignment, or recusal.

Anonymous sources and embargoes

Anonymous sourcing is reserved for information with genuine public value when identification creates credible risk. Editors know the source’s identity and assess motive, access, and corroboration. We honor clearly agreed embargoes but do not accept retroactive restrictions.

AI and automation

Automation may assist research, transcription, organization, translation, or drafting, but it does not replace editorial accountability. Material facts, quotations, citations, and image rights require human verification.

Corrections and safety

Material errors are corrected promptly with visible notes. We take additional care with active exploits, private data, market-moving allegations, and details that could facilitate harm. Public interest is balanced against avoidable risk.
