Source hierarchy
For protocol mechanics, we prioritize specifications, whitepapers, official developer documentation, client documentation, standards proposals, and code-level references. Secondary explainers may help frame user language, but they do not override primary technical evidence.
Fact checking
Technical claims are checked for chain, layer, field, and time context. We avoid treating the same term as identical across protocols. Numeric claims are tied to a defined representation, such as the 32-bit Bitcoin header nonce, rather than generalized beyond their scope.
Review dates and corrections
Pages display a review or publication date when appropriate. A meaningful correction updates the content and date. Cosmetic edits may not. Correction requests should identify the exact sentence, explain the issue, and include a source that can be inspected.
Links and commercial references
Links may provide background, direct readers to primary evidence, or reference a relevant external explanation. Editorial links are evaluated for contextual fit. A link does not imply that we endorse every claim, product, or service on the destination site. Paid or sponsored material, when accepted, must be disclosed rather than presented as independent reporting.
Safety and financial boundaries
We do not ask readers to disclose seed phrases, private keys, passwords, or authentication codes. Content is informational, not individualized financial, legal, tax, or investment advice. Examples are explanatory and should not be treated as transaction instructions without independent verification.
Use of automation
Automation may assist with formatting, consistency checks, link validation, or draft analysis. Published claims remain subject to editorial review. Automated output is not treated as evidence, and sources must remain independently inspectable.
How to report an issue
Send the page URL, the exact passage, the proposed correction, and supporting evidence through our contact channel. We assess corrections on the strength of the evidence, not on the identity or commercial interest of the requester.
