How we create and verify content

Every article in the Crypto Navigator journal goes through a multi-step preparation process.

Topic selection and structure

Before writing, an editor creates a structure and research brief: defining the target audience, key reader questions, and what the reader should be able to do after reading. We write for beginners in the EU and CIS — in plain language, without jargon.

Research

For every topic, we conduct independent research prioritizing primary sources: official platform websites, research firms, and major industry publications. For regulatory topics — data from regulators directly.

Data on fees, prices, and restrictions is checked for freshness — we only use recent sources. For licenses and regulatory statuses, data up to 90 days old is acceptable.

Fact-checking

After writing, every article goes through multi-pass fact verification:

  1. All verifiable claims are extracted — licenses, fees, restrictions, security data

  2. Each claim is verified against current sources

  3. Outdated or inaccurate data is corrected

Verification priority: user safety and legal compliance.

Legal expertise

For articles on regulation and taxation, we bring in specialist lawyers.

Editorial review

The finished article is reviewed by the editor-in-chief for factual accuracy, reader value, and absence of misleading statements.

Content updates

We regularly review published articles and update data when regulations, fees, or platform conditions change.

Sponsored content

Paid publications are always labelled as sponsored material.
