Methodology

How we work

By Joshua Baskin, founder · Reviewed · How we work

Every page here follows the same five steps. This is how you can check our work.

The five steps

  1. Start from a beginner question. We write for someone who has never owned crypto. If a page needs jargon, it explains it on the spot or links to the glossary.
  2. Source it from the primary record. Laws come from government sites (Income Tax Department, RBI, SEBI, FIU-IND, IRS, SEC, CFTC, FinCEN, Congress.gov). Technology comes from the original white papers, protocol docs and standards. News headlines link to the outlet that reported them.
  3. Write it plainly. Short sentences. One idea per paragraph. No hype, no predictions and no 'guaranteed' anything.
  4. Review before publishing. Each page is checked against its sources, for accuracy, spelling and tone, and is stamped with a 'Reviewed' date. Joshua Baskin, the founder, approves every page.
  5. Correct in public. If we get something wrong, we fix it and log it on the corrections page with the date.

Rules we never break

  • Education only. We do not pick coins, give buy or sell calls, or promise returns.
  • No paid placements, no sponsored lessons and no affiliate links inside lessons.
  • Laws and tax pages say what the official text says, link to it, and show the date we checked it.
  • Political coverage reports public votes and statements with sources. We do not endorse candidates or parties.
  • Translations are reviewed, and each translated lesson says which English version it follows.

Where our sources come from

  • India: incometax.gov.in, rbi.org.in, sebi.gov.in, fiuindia.gov.in, pib.gov.in, cybercrime.gov.in.
  • United States: irs.gov, sec.gov, cftc.gov, fincen.gov, congress.gov, ic3.gov.
  • Technology: the Bitcoin white paper, ethereum.org, Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIPs) and Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs).
  • Market data: CoinGecko, shown with the time it was fetched. Prices are there for context and literacy, not signals.
