Cryptomegaphone Trust & Ethics Statement

Last updated: November 19, 2025

At Cryptomegaphone, we believe that trust is earned through transparency, independence, and rigorous journalism. Our mission is to deliver accurate, unbiased, and responsible reporting on cryptocurrency, blockchain technologies, and the future of finance. The principles below guide every editorial decision we make.

1. Our Commitment to Independence

Cryptomegaphone operates with complete editorial independence.
Our reporting is never influenced by advertisers, sponsors, investors, or partners.

  • We do not accept payments, tokens, or equity for coverage.
  • Sponsored content is always labeled clearly.
  • Editorial and business operations remain strictly separated.

Our loyalty is to our readers — not to market actors or commercial interests.

2. Accuracy, Verification & Accountability

Accuracy is the foundation of trust. Before publishing:

  • All information is verified with reliable, primary, or multiple independent sources.
  • Claims, statistics, and market data are checked for factual correctness.
  • Context is provided to avoid misleading interpretations.
  • When errors occur, we correct them transparently and promptly.

We do not publish rumors, unverified leaks, or speculation disguised as fact.

3. Ethical Sourcing & Transparency

We adhere to professional sourcing standards:

  • On the record is the default for all interviews.
  • Anonymous sources are used only when necessary and only with editorial approval.
  • We do not publish claims from anonymous sources without supporting evidence.
  • We attribute all external reporting and respect intellectual property.

When a source’s motives may affect their credibility, we disclose relevant context.

4. No Market Manipulation or Hidden Influence

Cryptomegaphone does not participate in or facilitate market manipulation.

  • We do not promote tokens, protocols, or NFT projects.
  • We do not give investment advice.
  • We treat all projects — large or small — with equal scrutiny.

Our coverage aims to inform, not influence markets or investor behavior.

5. Conflicts of Interest & Personal Holdings

Cryptomegaphone staff must adhere to strict conflict-of-interest rules:

  • Journalists disclose significant personal digital-asset holdings.
  • Reporters do not cover assets or companies in which they hold material positions.
  • Staff may not accept compensation (tokens, NFTs, equity) for editorial work.
  • Trading restrictions apply to avoid front-running and other improper conduct.

Integrity begins with transparency.

6. Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence

AI tools may assist with research, language optimization, or translation, but:

  • AI never replaces human editors or reporters.
  • AI-generated content is never published without human review.
  • AI systems are not credited as authors.
  • Unverified claims generated by AI are strictly prohibited.

Every story published on Cryptomegaphone is edited and approved by a human.

7. Distinguishing News, Opinions & Sponsored Content

We clearly separate editorial content from other formats:

  • News is factual, unbiased, and independently produced.
  • Opinions reflect the views of individual authors and are labeled accordingly.
  • Sponsored content is labeled prominently and created by our commercial team, not the newsroom.

Readers always know what type of content they are consuming.

8. Respect for Users, Privacy & Safety

We respect the privacy and security of our readers, sources, and contributors:

  • We do not publish sensitive personal data without consent or strong public-interest justification.
  • We avoid releasing technical details of vulnerabilities that could put users at risk.
  • We never share user data with advertisers or third-party partners without consent.

We operate in line with applicable data-protection laws and ethical principles.

9. Engaging With the Community

Feedback is essential to maintaining trust.
