Editorial Policy

Last updated: August 2026

1. How Our Content Is Produced

CoinArticle is an AI-assisted newsroom. We do not send reporters to conferences or work sources for scoops. What we do is run an automated pipeline that continuously reads publicly available crypto reporting, groups items covering the same event, and writes a summary article from those sources.

In practice, each article goes through the same steps:

  • Collection: We ingest published articles and feeds from established crypto and financial news outlets.
  • Clustering: Items reporting the same underlying event are grouped, so an article can be written from several independent accounts rather than one.
  • Drafting: A large language model writes the summary, key takeaways, and analysis strictly from the grouped source material.
  • Labelling: Categories, entities, and a sentiment signal are attached automatically to make the article findable.
  • Publication: The article is published with its source list attached and visible at the bottom of the page.

2. Sourcing Standards

We write from what has already been reported, and we say where it came from.

  • Every article lists its sources, with a link to each original publisher, in the Sources section at the end of the page.
  • We aim to write from more than one independent source. Articles built from several sources are marked with a source count.
  • We do not publish anonymous tips, unsourced rumours, or claims that trace back only to a project's own marketing.
  • Price and market data comes from third-party providers and is presented as supplied. It can be delayed or wrong.
  • We do not reproduce source articles in full. We summarise and link back to the publisher who did the reporting.

3. The AI/Human Split

We want to be direct about this rather than bury it: the text of our news articles is written by AI systems, not by a human journalist typing each sentence. Cover images are generated too. Every byline tells you which kind of content you are reading:

  • "Written by CoinArticle's AI Newsroom" — machine-written news coverage, published without a line-by-line human read. This is most of the site.
  • "Reviewed by <name>" — machine-written content that a named human editor has read, checked, and taken responsibility for. The name links to that person's profile page, where you can see their role, credentials, and everything else they have reviewed.
  • "By <name>" — human-written. Columns and analysis pieces carry a person's byline because a person wrote them; they are labelled as opinion, distinct from newsroom coverage.

Some content requires human review before it can be published at all: our educational guides in the Learn section and our exchange reviews never go live — and exchange reviews never carry scores — without a named, accountable reviewer. Our systems enforce this; it is not an aspiration.

Machine-written articles carry the failure modes of AI systems: a misread source, missing context, or a confident statement that is simply wrong. This is why the source links matter, and why nothing here should be treated as financial advice. See our Disclaimer.

4. Corrections

If we have published something inaccurate, we want to know. Automated publishing means errors are possible, and reader reports are one of the main ways we catch them.

Email [email protected] with "CoinArticle correction" in the subject line, and include:

  • The link to the article
  • The specific statement you believe is wrong
  • A source supporting the correct version, where you have one

What happens next — our corrections policy:

  • Triage within two business days. A human reads every correction report. We verify the claim against the article's own cited sources and, where needed, primary sources.
  • Material errors are corrected visibly. If a factual claim is wrong in a way that changes the meaning of the story — a wrong figure, a misattributed statement, a misread filing — we correct the text and add a dated update note on the article itself. We do not correct silently.
  • Minor errors are fixed quietly. Typos, formatting, and broken links are fixed without a note; they do not change what the story says.
  • Unsalvageable articles are unpublished. If the premise of an article is wrong — the event did not happen as described — we unpublish it rather than rewrite history under the same URL. The URL then returns a 404 or redirects to corrected coverage.
  • Data products get corrections notes too. Errors in our data pages (price history, index values, exchange facts) are corrected in the underlying data, and materially wrong published figures are noted on the affected page.
  • What we do not do. Requests to remove accurate, properly sourced coverage are not corrections and are declined — including requests from our parent company. We do not accept payment in connection with any correction decision.

When a correction traces back to a systematic pipeline failure rather than a one-off, we fix the pipeline, and where the same error affected multiple articles we correct all of them, not just the reported one.

5. Ownership and Sponsored Content

CoinArticle is owned and operated by Cryptohopper BV, which sells an automated crypto trading platform. That is a commercial interest in the subject we cover, and you should read the site knowing it.

How we handle it:

  • Sponsored articles are labelled. Articles produced to promote Cryptohopper carry a visible "Sponsored" label at the top of the page and in article listings, and a disclosure at the end of the text.
  • Promotional placements are labelled. Ad blocks, pop-ups, and in-article calls to action for Cryptohopper products are marked as sponsored and use rel="sponsored" links.
  • News coverage is not for sale. We do not accept payment from third parties to publish, alter, spike, or slant news articles, and we do not sell coverage as advertising.
  • Coverage of our own parent company. Where a news article touches Cryptohopper, the ownership relationship is disclosed in the article.

Sponsored content is marketing. It is not independent analysis and should not be read as a recommendation to trade.
