AltcoinNews.africa is committed to accurate, fair, and independent journalism. Our editorial policy ensures transparency, trust, and accountability.
1. Accuracy & Verification
We verify facts using credible sources. When reporting on market data, regulatory changes, or claims about projects, we seek primary sources whenever possible.
2. Independence & Conflicts of Interest
The editorial team operates independently from commercial and advertising teams. Any sponsored content or paid placement is clearly labeled. Editors declare conflicts of interest (financial holdings, relationships) where relevant.
3. Corrections & Retractions
If we publish inaccurate information, we correct it promptly and note the correction. Serious errors may result in retractions and an editorial note.
4. Fair Comment & Opinion
Opinion pieces are clearly marked. We welcome a diversity of views but expect contributors to support assertions with evidence.
5. Source Transparency
We indicate sources for investigative pieces and cite documents, statements, or data where practicable. Anonymous sources are used sparingly and only when essential for public interest reporting.
6. Advertising & Sponsored Content
Sponsored content is allowed but must be clearly disclosed. Editorial control rests with the newsroom and content that conflicts with our editorial standards will not be published.
7. User-Generated Content
Reader tips, comments, and guest submissions are welcomed. We moderate for spam, illegal content, and violations of our community standards. Submissions may be edited for length and clarity.
8. Data & Opinion Separation
We separate factual reporting from analysis and opinion. Data-backed stories include methodology notes when necessary.
