Our Ethics

Last updated – 5 April 2023

CRYPTO BANTER IS BUILDING THE WORLDS MOST CREDIBLE, 24/7/365 SOURCE OF STREAMING CRYPTO INFORMATION.

AS WE PURSUE OUR VISION WE REALIZE THAT WE NEED TO BE ACCOUNTABLE TO THE INDUSTRY AND THE OUR COMMUNITY AND AS SUCH, THOUGH NOT MANDATED BY ANY LAW WE ADHERE TO THE FOLLOWING CODE OF CONDUCT AND ETHICS AND ARE AUDITED REGULARLY BY AN EXTERNAL AUDIT COMPANY:

Transparency and Credibility at all costs.

• Provide hosts and guests with a platform that encourages open, honest and transparent interactions.
• Always provide credible, researched, up-to-date information.
• Publish the research to back each call, highlighting any potential risks, holdings and conflicts.
• Conduct reasonable background checks on any guest that is invited on any of our shows.
• Never censor any guest or narrative – even if it doesn’t agree with our views (Unless the views risk our channel being de-platformed)

We are not for sale:

• We NEVER do paid reviews, tweets, interviews, mentions, AMA’S or any other paid exposure. We expect the same from our guests.
• Any show sponsors must always be clearly disclosed and labelled. Our relationship and revenue model with the sponsors must be transparent.
• Sponsorship may not affect how we cover our sponsors on the show.
• If Crypto Banter or any of its hosts or editors accept any form of payment in cash, tokens or other for exposure on the any of our mediums, it must be clearly stated and declared on the medium. (Streams, Instagram, Twitter, Medium, Website etc)

As our community and offerings grow, we are evolving to provide premium, paid products alongside our existing services. In this transition, we are committed to upholding the highest ethical standards.

• Our team will NEVER request payments through private messages.
• We offer a premium service via Telegram and Discord and potentially other mediums in the future. 
• Crypto Banter now provides paid access on these platforms. Be wary of any direct monetary requests, as they are most likely scams or illicit actors. 
• All updates on our paid services will be shared via our videos, live streams, newsletters, and social media.

We Own And Sell Paid Products/Services

• We will never message you personally asking you for money 
• We do own a paid product that operates on Telegram and Discord
• Crypto Banter has recently evolved to be set up in such a way that we can render money for access to our paid products operating on the above mentioned platform. If you are being messaged personally to ask for money from a host, it is more than likely a fake account. 
• The primary communication channels for our paid product and services will be videos, live shows, newsletters and posting on social media channels. 

We are Investors First:

The founders, hosts, editors and staff of Crypto Banter are investors FIRST and also run a free-to-air media channel. As investors we often participate in early stage rounds of funding and are often invested in the tokens that are discussed on the show.

Our shows are unscripted and in essence are “reality shows”. Our team spend their days researching trends, markets, tokens and projects and making trades accordingly. During our shows we endeavor to show our audience what we learnt and the actions we took or are taking. It is important to note that if our research is positive, we will often buy tokens before we mention them on the show.

We have also taken the following steps to reduce any potential conflicts of interest that may exist but viewers should note the potential conflict:

• Endeavor to disclose any holdings and conflicts on the shows.
• NEVER enter into any investment agreement that requires us to promote, advertise, mention a project on any of our mediums.
• No member of the Crypto Banter team may engage in any material selling activity on any token that is recommended as a “BUY” or , BUY any token that is recommended as a” SELL”, on any of our shows for at least 24 hours after it is mentioned.The following exclusions may be made:
  • 1. Tokens that are listed on the top 100 tokens by market capitalization on coinmarketcap.com are excluded.
  • 2. Stop Losses that are communicated and triggered.
  • 3. In cases where a TAKE PROFIT zone is communicated to the community and the TAKE PROFIT ZONE is triggered by a movement in price.
  • 4. Where there is reasonable evidence or suspicion of fraud, unethical or suspicious behaviour by the team or cases where the market or token experiences unusual or extreme volatility. (Examples similar to the LUNA De-pegging and FTX Insolvency/collapse) In these cases the team may request permission to sell but this must be approved in writing by the CEO BEFORE the sale begins. Such cases will be communicated within reasonable time to the community.
  • 5. Since some of our shows are trading show hosted by short term traders , they may exit positions that are invalidated based on market movements. In these cases the community will be informed as soon as reasonable time.
• NEVER engage in any coordinated buying or selling activity.
• Be honest and transparent about the direction trades we are making on any token.
• Every member of the team will disclose and publish all their token holdings every 6 months on the disclosure section of our website.
