Standards and corrections
Editorial Policy
How DigitalAssetsNews.com selects sources, separates facts from inference, dates updates, handles corrections, and avoids promotional claims.
Purpose
The publication explains digital asset systems with enough operational detail for readers to distinguish a product label from the rights, controls, data, and institutions beneath it. Clarity takes priority over speed, hype, and keyword repetition.
Source selection
Long-form guides use one editorial outbound link each. Preference is given to regulators, standards bodies, official protocol documentation, government agencies, and other primary or authoritative sources that directly support the relevant section. The source is not treated as an endorsement of every conclusion in the article.
Facts, analysis, and inference
Verified facts are attributed to documents, code, public records, or observable transactions. Analysis connects those facts through a stated framework. Inference is labeled when identity, intent, economic purpose, future impact, or legal outcome cannot be known from the available evidence alone.
Dates and updates
Every article displays a publication date and a modification date. Dates are consistent across the page, structured data, sitemap, blog listings, and RSS feed. A modification date changes only when a substantive editorial update is made; routine site packaging does not make every article newly updated.
Corrections
Substantive errors are corrected in the article and reflected in the modification date. Minor typographic or formatting fixes may not receive a separate notice. Correction requests should identify the exact claim and provide a primary source where possible.
Conflicts and promotional claims
The site does not publish fabricated testimonials, investment performance, partnerships, awards, credentials, user counts, or market statistics. Articles are not token promotions and do not contain referral codes, sponsored trading links, or calls to buy an asset.
Responsible language
Regulatory coverage distinguishes proposals, final rules, allegations, charges, settlements, decisions, and appeals. Security coverage avoids describing a system as risk-free. Market coverage distinguishes displayed prices from executable liquidity and historical observations from forecasts.
AI and production disclosures
The publication focuses on the content and evidence presented to the reader. It does not display generic commentary about site-production methods. Any disclosure required by a specific source, relationship, or jurisdiction would be made where it is relevant to the content.
