Primary sources first
We rely on primary sources wherever possible: protocol documentation, improvement proposals, standards, peer-reviewed research and on-chain data. Press releases, social media posts and AI-generated summaries are treated as leads to check, not as sources.
Sources are listed
Each article ends with the sources we relied on, so you can check important claims yourself. Where sources disagree or evidence is limited, we say so.
We label what kind of content it is
Most of what we publish are explainers: how a technology works. Pieces that report recent events are labelled Reporting. Pieces that discuss where things may be heading are labelled Analysis & outlook, because forecasts are uncertain. Pieces that argue a point of view are labelled Opinion.
A person reviews before publishing
Every script and article is reviewed by a person before it is published, with key claims checked against the cited sources. We are a small team and mistakes can still happen, which is why we correct them openly.
How we use AI
Emma, our presenter, is AI-generated. We also use AI tools to assist with research and drafting. People decide what we publish and are responsible for it.
Independence, sponsorship and affiliates
No project can pay for coverage or for a particular conclusion. Sponsored content and affiliate links, if we ever use them, are clearly labelled at the top of the article.
Education, not financial advice
We explain how technology works. Nothing we publish is financial, investment, tax or legal advice, and we do not give price predictions or trading tips. Crypto-assets are volatile and you can lose money.
