Editorial Policy
IZAKA-YA aims to be a trusted source of information in the fields of digital assets (cryptocurrencies), blockchain, DeFi, and related technologies.
We operate under a core principle of “Trust First.” In a market as volatile and uncertain as crypto, we are committed to helping readers make informed and responsible decisions by producing content in accordance with a strict editorial policy.
1. Editorial Independence and Fairness
The IZAKA-YA editorial team operates independently and publishes content free from any undue external influence.
Independence from advertisers and sponsors: Exchanges, wallet providers, token issuers, and other commercial partners have no influence over our reviews, ratings, or editorial stance in news coverage.
Conflict of interest (CoI) management: Writers and editors are strictly prohibited from promoting specific assets in a misleading or manipulative manner (such as pump-and-dump schemes).
Clear disclosure of sponsored content: Any sponsored articles or paid content are clearly labeled (e.g., “PR” or “Sponsored”) so that readers can easily distinguish them from editorial content.
2. Accuracy and Reliability of Information
We understand that inaccurate information can directly impact our readers’ financial decisions. For this reason, we place strong emphasis on fact-checking and transparency.
Primary sources first: We prioritize reliable primary sources such as press releases, white papers, on-chain data, and official announcements from regulators.
Multi-layered review process: All content is reviewed prior to publication by experienced editors, including both factual verification and compliance with our editorial standards.
The Human Filter: While AI tools may be used to support research and drafting, all final fact-checking, tone adjustments, and contextual evaluation are carried out by human experts.
3. Review and Evaluation Standards
Our project evaluations (including exchanges, wallets, and DeFi protocols) are based on objective and rigorous testing.
Proprietary evaluation framework: We assess projects using a structured scoring system based on factors such as security, liquidity, cost efficiency, and regulatory compliance. For more details, please refer to our “Project Evaluation Methodology.”
Hands-on testing: Wherever possible, we test services in real-world conditions. We aim to present not only strengths, but also any risks or limitations that users should be aware of.
4. Reader Protection and Legal Position
All information provided by IZAKA-YA is intended for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial or investment advice.
No exaggerated claims: We strictly avoid misleading or sensational statements such as “guaranteed profits” or “100% safe,” as well as language designed to create unnecessary urgency or fear.
Risk disclosure: We clearly highlight the risks associated with cryptocurrencies, including price volatility and security risks such as hacking. Any investment decisions should be made at your own discretion and responsibility.
5. Content Updates and Corrections
Given the fast-moving nature of the crypto industry, we maintain processes to keep information up to date and to correct errors promptly.
Regular updates: Key information such as exchange fees, product features, and regulatory developments is reviewed and updated periodically (with the last updated date clearly indicated).
Timely corrections: If any inaccuracies or errors are identified, we will verify and correct them without delay. In cases of significant errors, we will clearly disclose the nature of the correction to our readers.
6. Contact and Feedback
Feedback from our readers is essential to maintaining and improving the quality of IZAKA-YA. If you have any questions, notice any inaccuracies, or would like to share feedback, please contact us via our contact form at any time. We will review and respond to your inquiry responsibly.
