Fact-Checking Policy
Fact-Checking Policy
CryptoNewsRoom is committed to publishing accurate, verifiable information. This page describes how we verify the facts in our reporting and what readers can expect from our editorial process.
Our verification standards
Every news article published on cryptonewsroom.co undergoes the following verification steps before publication:
- Primary-source confirmation. Where a story relies on a press release, regulatory filing, on-chain transaction, exchange announcement, court document, or official statement, we link to and quote the original source. We do not republish second-hand summaries without independent verification.
- Cross-source corroboration. Market-moving claims (price, volume, regulatory action, partnership, hack, fund movement) must be corroborated by at least two independent sources before publication.
- Identification of speculation. Forecasts, price predictions, “could,” “may,” and analyst opinions are clearly labelled as such and not presented as established fact.
- Numerical accuracy. Prices, market caps, volumes, dates, percentages, and other quantitative claims are checked against the cited source at time of publication. We note the data timestamp where it materially affects interpretation.
- Identity verification. When attributing a statement to a person, organisation, or anonymous source, we verify the speaker’s identity, title, and authority to speak on the topic.
Sourcing principles
- Named sources are preferred. We use anonymous sources only when the public-interest value is clear and the source faces material risk in being named. Anonymous sources must be known to the editor.
- AI-assisted research, human-verified copy. We use AI tools to draft initial summaries from primary sources. Every published article is reviewed and corrected by a named human editor before publication. AI-generated text that has not been verified is not published.
- Conflict-of-interest disclosure. Writers disclose any holdings or financial interest in a covered asset above a $1,000 threshold. Disclosure appears at the top of the article.
- Sponsored content is clearly labelled as “Sponsored,” “Press Release,” or “Partnership” and excluded from our news-sitemap and Google News submissions.
What we don’t publish
- Token-shilling content paid for by the issuer without disclosure.
- Price predictions presented as guarantees or “guaranteed” returns.
- Stories whose only source is an anonymous social-media account, unless additional corroboration exists.
- Content that materially misrepresents on-chain data or trading activity.
