Ownership & Funding
Why we publish this
In crypto media, the first question a skeptical reader should ask is: who pays for this coverage, and what did they buy? It is a fair question, and most sites make you guess. CRYPTO PULZE would rather answer it in writing. This page explains who owns the site, where the money comes from, and the hard lines between that money and our journalism.
Ownership
CRYPTO PULZE at cryptopulze.com is an independently owned online publication, operated by a small editorial team. It is not owned, controlled, or part-funded by any cryptocurrency exchange, token project, foundation, venture fund, market maker, mining operation, or media conglomerate. No outside investor holds a stake in the site, and no owner sits on the board or payroll of any company we cover. If any of that ever changes, this page changes first, before the change takes effect on our coverage.
No token, ever
This publication has no token, has never issued one, and will not. A media outlet with its own coin has an unresolvable conflict baked into every article that could move that coin. We would rather stay poor and readable.
Where the money comes from
Advertising
Display advertising is our primary revenue source. Ads are visually distinct from editorial content, and advertisers buy space, not influence: they do not see stories before publication, do not know what we are working on, and cannot veto, request, or shape coverage. Details of formats and the things we refuse to run are on the Advertise With Us page.
Sponsored content
We may carry clearly labeled sponsored posts, produced outside the news team and marked as paid at the top of the piece. A sponsored label on CRYPTO PULZE means exactly one thing: someone paid for that specific piece, and it is not journalism. Our news coverage of a sponsor, if we ever have reason to cover them, follows the same standards as coverage of anyone else, including negative coverage where warranted.
Affiliate links
Some articles contain affiliate links, under which we may earn a commission if you sign up for or purchase a service. Two rules keep this honest. First, disclosure: articles containing affiliate links say so. Second, direction of causation: we add affiliate options to products we were covering anyway; we do not choose what to cover because an affiliate program exists. An affiliate relationship never protects a company from critical reporting, and if a partner objects to that arrangement, we drop the partner, not the story.
What we do not take
- Payment, tokens, or equity in exchange for news coverage, listings, or reviews;
- Token allocations, airdrops, or advisory shares from projects we cover;
- Travel, hospitality, or gifts beyond trivial value from industry sources;
- Grants or funding from foundations whose ecosystems we report on, unless publicly disclosed here first, which has not happened to date.
The firewall in practice
Commercial conversations and editorial decisions are kept separate. Writers are not told who is advertising, revenue targets never appear in editorial planning, and the person selling a campaign has no say in a headline. Our conflict-of-interest and personal-holdings rules, which bind every team member, are published in our Editorial Standards & Ethics.
Hold us to it
If you believe any article on this site was shaped by a commercial relationship, disclosed or otherwise, we want to know more than you do. Write to support@cryptopulze.com with the article and your reasoning. Questions about our ownership or funding get straight answers from the same address.
