Editorial Guidelines

Global Boost Media exists to empower cryptocurrency investors and enthusiasts with reliable, actionable market information. Our mission is to cut through the noise of the crypto space and provide clear, accurate data and analysis that helps our users make informed decisions.

We are committed to:

• Accuracy: Verifying all data and information through multiple authoritative sources before publication
• Transparency: Clearly disclosing our data sources, methodologies, and any potential conflicts of interest
• User Education: Creating content that not only informs but educates users about cryptocurrency markets and blockchain technology
• Editorial Independence: Maintaining complete separation between our editorial content and business operations
• Timeliness: Delivering real-time market data and breaking news as quickly as possible without sacrificing accuracy

We recognize that cryptocurrency is a rapidly evolving space with significant financial implications for our users. This responsibility drives our unwavering commitment to maintaining the highest editorial standards.

Every piece of content published on Global Boost Media undergoes rigorous review to ensure accuracy and quality.

Verification Process

• Multi-Source Verification: All factual claims must be verified through at least two independent, authoritative sources
• Primary Sources: We prioritize primary sources such as official project announcements, regulatory filings, and direct quotes from verified individuals
• Data Validation: Market data is cross-referenced with multiple exchanges and data aggregators to ensure consistency
• Expert Review: Content is reviewed by team members with relevant expertise before publication

Correction Policy

Despite our best efforts, errors may occasionally occur. When they do, we are committed to correcting them promptly and transparently:

• Corrections are made within 24 hours of identification
• Material corrections are clearly noted at the top of the article with an update timestamp
• Minor corrections (typos, formatting) are made silently unless they affect meaning
• Users can report errors via editorial@globalboostmedia.com

Conflict of Interest Policy

To maintain credibility and trust:

• Team members must disclose any financial interest in cryptocurrencies covered in their content
• We do not accept payment for coverage or favorable rankings of any cryptocurrency
• All sponsored content is clearly labeled and separated from editorial content
• Our rankings and data presentations are determined solely by objective metrics, not commercial relationships

Primary Data Source

Global Boost Media uses the CoinMarketCap Pro API as our primary source for cryptocurrency market data, including:

• Real-time and historical price data
• Market capitalization and trading volume
• Circulating supply and total supply
• 24-hour price changes and performance metrics

Update Frequency

To balance data freshness with system performance, we employ the following update schedule:

• Price Data: Updated every 2 minutes during market hours
• Market Metrics: Refreshed every 5 minutes (market cap, volume, dominance)
• Historical Data: Daily snapshots taken at midnight UTC
• News Content: Aggregated and updated hourly from verified sources

Data Validation Process

While we rely on trusted third-party providers, we implement additional validation:

• Automated anomaly detection identifies unusual price movements or data inconsistencies
• Manual review of significant market events (e.g., price drops/surges over 20%)
• Cross-validation with secondary data sources when discrepancies are detected
• Fallback data sources ensure continuity if primary APIs experience downtime

Data Accuracy Disclaimer

Despite our rigorous processes:

• Market data may not reflect real-time prices due to our 2-minute caching system
• Prices can vary across exchanges; we display aggregate data from multiple sources
• Third-party data providers may occasionally experience errors or outages
• Users should verify critical information independently before making investment decisions
