CryptoPotato – Crypto News Platform Review

Score: 55.25. A genuinely specific ad-labeling policy, run by two owners who openly call themselves crypto investors.

Score: 48.0. Named staff and a stated fact-checking policy, undercut by casino and exchange-ambassador stories in the feed.

Score: 41.5. Says outright it publishes “prior to” verifying, and its own account was hacked in 2025 despite 2FA.

Score: 40.75. Its own “strict editorial policy” page is literally unfinished Latin placeholder text, never replaced.

Score: 51.0. Sold for 8 figures just 10 months after launch, to a parent that runs several other crypto-adjacent sites.

Score: 69.75. Laura Shin discloses specific crypto holdings by name, rare in this industry, but sponsored content sits close to editorial.

Score: 55.5. Adversarial and independent by design, but an outside investigator couldn’t determine how the site funds itself.

Score: 56.75. Founder resigned as CEO after inflammatory tweets, then kept publishing research anyway as a firm “advisor.”

Score: 55.0. Explicitly bans paid news articles, yet an independent rater still lists its factuality as “unknown.”
