The KryosTrade editorial policy sets out how we research and publish our guides for beginners. It applies to every article, glossary entry, calculator explanation and homepage section on this site. We publish it so readers can judge our work by the process behind it, rather than by any claim of authority.
The KryosTrade editorial policy, step by step
- Research from primary sources
We start with the original rulebook or document: regulator publications, legislation, exchange rules, stablecoin issuer disclosures and protocol documentation. News and commentary help us spot topics but are not treated as proof.
- Drafting, including with AI tools
We use AI writing tools to help draft and structure pages. A draft is a starting point, never a finished article: nothing is published without a human editor's review.
- Fact and number checks
Every specific rule, date and limit is checked against its source. Every worked example is recalculated, and illustrative figures are labelled as illustrative.
- Editorial review
An editor reads the page as a beginner would: is each term explained, are risks stated next to the ideas they belong to, and does anything read like a recommendation?
- Updates and corrections
When rules change, we update the affected pages and the "updated" date. Reader corrections are checked and fixed on the page where the mistake appeared.
Sources we rely on
Where a guide depends on a specific rule or figure, such as a leverage cap, a settlement cycle or a Bitcoin halving date, we list the source by name at the foot of the page. We prefer official bodies and primary documents. We do not rely on anonymous forums, promotional material from platforms or token projects, or social media claims.
Independence
- No platform, broker, exchange or token project pays to appear in, or be left out of, our content.
- We do not use affiliate links or referral codes, and we do not publish sponsored rankings.
- If we ever carry advertising, it will be clearly labelled and kept separate from editorial content, and this policy will be updated first.
What we never do
- Name, rank or recommend real exchanges, brokers, apps, coins or shares.
- Publish price predictions, "signals" or performance claims.
- Invent statistics, reviews, testimonials, awards or expert credentials.
- Offer accounts, trading, deposits or any financial service. KryosTrade is an information site.
Calculators and worked examples
Our calculators run in your browser and use the formulas printed on each calculator page. Before a calculator goes live, we test it against worked examples calculated separately, and we re-test after any change. Example figures in guides are chosen to show how the maths works; they are not prices, forecasts or suggestions to trade.
Images
Pictures on the site are illustrations chosen to break up the text. They do not show real platforms, real accounts or real results.
Corrections
If you spot a mistake, please tell us through the contact page with the page address and what you think is wrong. We check every report. Where we agree, we correct the page promptly; significant corrections that change the meaning of a guide are noted on that page.
Limits of our content
We also do not answer personal questions about what to buy or sell, because we cannot know a reader's full situation and are not authorised to advise. Our guides are general education. They do not take account of your circumstances and are not financial, tax or legal advice. Rules differ by country and change over time. Please read our disclaimer and, for decisions that matter, speak to an independent regulated adviser.
