ChainPulse covers cryptocurrency, DeFi, NFTs, regulation, and Web3 technology. This policy describes how we select sources, verify information, manage conflicts of interest, and why nothing we publish constitutes financial advice. If our content helps you decide whether to buy, sell, or hold an asset, you are reading it wrong: we are here to inform, not to move price.
ChainPulse does not accept payment in exchange for coverage, does not participate in exchange affiliate programs, and does not publish sponsored articles disguised as news. Our coverage decisions are based on relevance and verifiability, never on external pressure from protocols, foundations, or investors. We do not predict prices, do not recommend buying or selling tokens, and do not amplify pump-and-dump narratives.
We prioritize established crypto-native outlets (CoinDesk, The Block, Decrypt, Cointelegraph, Bankless, Unchained, Bitcoin Magazine), traditional financial media's crypto coverage (Bloomberg, Reuters, Financial Times), on-chain data providers (Glassnode, Dune Analytics, Messari, DefiLlama, CoinMetrics, Nansen, Chainalysis), official explorers (Etherscan, Solscan), and primary regulatory sources (SEC, CFTC, EU MiCA documents). Token, contract, and wallet addresses are always copied verbatim from the original source; they are never rewritten or generated automatically.
Every article cites the original source, links to the official protocol post or relevant on-chain block when applicable, and explicitly separates reporting (verifiable) from market commentary (speculative). When a story depends on an unattributable statement or an unconfirmed leak, we say so. When primary sources disagree, we show both versions.
We use language models to summarize, translate, and restructure reporting already published by our sources. AI does not generate price predictions, does not produce technical chart analysis, does not recommend positions, and never generates contract, token, or wallet addresses. Every on-chain address is copied verbatim from the source. More detail at /ai-disclosure.
Nothing on ChainPulse constitutes financial, investment, legal, tax, or trading advice. Crypto markets are extremely volatile: any position discussed in our articles may lose 100% of its value. Always verify on-chain data yourself before transacting, consult a certified professional before investing, and never risk more capital than you can afford to lose entirely.
Editorial team members may hold personal positions in BTC, ETH, and major stablecoins as long-term exposure. When an author holds a material position in a token discussed in a story, we disclose it at the bottom of the article. ChainPulse as an entity does not run directional trading on the assets it covers and does not participate in private rounds, presales, or airdrops obtained through editorial relationships.
