Ethics Policy
Our Ethical Standards
At TokenTopNews, ethical journalism is the foundation of our mission. We commit to reporting that is accurate, transparent, and fair — guided by honesty, accountability, and respect for our readers and sources. Our goal is to ensure that every piece of content reflects professional integrity and moral responsibility.
In addition, our editorial choices are made independently. No advertiser, sponsor, or investor has any control over the content we produce. As a result, we preserve our readers’ trust through independence and responsibility.
Editorial Integrity
Our editorial team operates separately from our business and marketing departments.
Editors and writers decide what to cover based on relevance and public interest, never financial influence. We avoid all “pay-to-publish” arrangements and maintain a strict boundary between journalism and advertising.
Moreover, we clearly label any sponsored content or partnerships. This transparency allows readers to distinguish independent reporting from paid placements easily.
Conflict of Interest
To maintain credibility and fairness, all editors, journalists, and contributors follow a strict conflict-of-interest policy. Each team member must:
- Disclose any cryptocurrency holdings or financial ties related to their coverage.
- Avoid trading assets mentioned in their work for 14 days before and after publication.
- Decline gifts, tokens, or paid invitations from the entities they report on.
Furthermore, our compliance team monitors disclosures regularly. This process protects objectivity and reinforces reader confidence.
Editorial Conduct & Responsibility
Our journalists follow clear professional guidelines and uphold accuracy above all. They verify information using credible sources and maintain a respectful tone across all reports.
Editors review every article before publication to confirm accuracy, neutrality, and completeness. If an error occurs, our team corrects it immediately following the Feedback & Corrections Policy. In addition, we encourage open dialogue with readers who wish to clarify or challenge published information.
Responsible Use of AI and Automation
We use AI tools responsibly to assist with research, translation, and editorial workflows. However, human editors always review AI-assisted content before publication. Our editors confirm accuracy, originality, and usefulness, following Google’s AI content guidelines.
Therefore, automation helps us improve efficiency while ensuring that humans maintain full editorial control.
Source Ethics & Attribution
We rely only on verified, transparent, and credible sources. Editors confirm the authenticity of each quote and piece of data before inclusion. Additionally, we attribute every fact to its original source through proper linking and citation.
We use anonymous sources only when necessary and after review by two senior editors. When we translate or summarize external materials, we always credit the original publisher. As a result, our readers can verify our information independently.
Editorial Independence Statement
TokenTopNews provides independent analysis and news for educational purposes. We never offer financial advice, investment consulting, or trading recommendations. Our content aims to inform and educate, not to influence buying or selling decisions.
Ultimately, this distinction reinforces our commitment to transparency, ethics, and responsible journalism.
Reader Trust
Reader trust defines our success. We believe that integrity, accountability, and open communication create long-term credibility. Through continuous improvement, we strengthen our ethical standards and preserve the values that guide TokenTopNews.
