About the Turf

Turf isn't just land. It's the territory you know better than anyone, that you defend, and that gives you an identity. That's what we're building in crypto — a block where people actually know their way around.

01 Principles

What We Stand On

Risk first

The Downside Leads

Every guide states what can go wrong before what can go right. We'd rather you survive your first year than maximize your first week.

No gatekeeping

Plain Language

Jargon is a wall. We translate. Nobody on this block was born knowing what a seed phrase was, and nobody gets smirked at for asking.

Coverage isn't for sale

Editorial Independence

We take no payment for directory listings, ratings or coverage. Sponsored content, when it exists, is labeled unmistakably. Not negotiable, including after $TURF launches.

02 Transparency

How We Make Money

You should always know why a site is telling you something.

Display advertising, clearly labeled sponsored posts, affiliate links on hardware and services we'd recommend anyway (hardware wallets, charting tools), the newsletter, and future premium memberships. Affiliate relationships never determine whether something gets recommended or how it's rated — if we wouldn't tell a friend to buy it, it doesn't appear here with or without a commission. Where a link pays us, the page says so.

03 How we work

Editorial Standards

What you'll always get

  • Sources linked, primary where possible
  • Corrections posted publicly, not silently edited
  • Conflicts of interest disclosed inline
  • No price predictions dressed as analysis
  • No "financial advice" — ever, from anyone here

What you'll never get

  • Paid placement disguised as editorial
  • Undisclosed token bags behind coverage
  • Urgency tactics or "last chance" framing
  • Coordinated calls or pump groups
  • Anyone from Crypto Turf DMing you about a token

Write For The Turf

We pay for good work

If you can explain something complicated in plain language — a protocol, an exploit post-mortem, an on-chain investigation, a beginner guide that doesn't condescend — pitch us. We especially want writers who've lost money and are willing to write honestly about why. Send a pitch and a sample to team@cryptoturf.com.
