Editorial policy

How this site works, including one thing most sites would rather not put in writing: how far AI tools are involved in producing the content.

Where topics come from

We look for questions that get asked over and over and answered badly. The standard example is "my identity verification keeps failing" — most of the results repeat the same useless advice (upload your ID again), and almost nobody points out that the variable worth changing is usually the device and the lighting, not the document.

There is one hard rule on topic selection: it has to be a real operational problem, not a topic that happens to hold keywords. We do not write "what is blockchain" explainers, because nobody arrives at one with an actual problem.

How facts get checked

Content falls into three buckets, handled differently:

That last one deserves an expansion, because false precision is the most common form of content fraud. "Tested at 14:23, completed in 3 minutes 17 seconds" reads as credible — and if it is made up, it is fabricated evidence. We would rather be vague and true than precise and false.

How far AI tools are involved

Plainly: AI assistance is used in drafting and organising the content on this site.

We think saying so is better than hiding it, and it is worth being specific about where it stops:

This does not guarantee zero errors. It does keep out the most dangerous category — invented numbers and fake evidence. Where we fall short of it, tell us.

The English edition specifically

The English pages are not machine translations of the Chinese ones. They were written against the same research, but the practical answer often differs by region: the payment rails are different, the regional restrictions are different, and "getting money out" does not mean the same thing for a reader in Kuala Lumpur as for one in Taipei. Where a section would have been wrong for English readers, it was rewritten rather than translated.

One consequence is worth stating: the two editions can disagree on specifics, and when they do, neither is the master version. If you read both and find a contradiction that region does not explain, that is a bug — tell us and it gets logged.

What we do not publish

That last one is the hardest to hold yourself to, because our income does come from an exchange referral programme. Our answer is structural: keep almost every page free of referral links, and put no conversion path at all on the risk pages. The specifics are on the disclosure page.
