Ownership & Funding

MiningPool is independently owned and operated. The publication is funded through display advertising, sponsored content partnerships, and affiliate relationships. No mining pool, hardware manufacturer, or cryptocurrency project holds an equity stake in MiningPool or exercises editorial control over its content.

Affiliate Relationships

Some articles contain affiliate links to mining hardware retailers, exchanges, or service providers. When an article includes affiliate links, this is disclosed at the top of the article. Affiliate relationships do not influence which products are covered or how they are evaluated.

Author Disclosure Policy

  • Ownership of cryptocurrency assets mentioned in their reporting
  • Employment or consulting relationships with companies in the mining sector
  • Direct or indirect financial interests in mining operations

Disclosures are reviewed by the editor-in-chief on a quarterly basis. Where a conflict is identified, the author may be reassigned or the conflict noted in the article byline.

Crypto Holdings Policy

Editorial staff are permitted to hold cryptocurrency, but must disclose all holdings exceeding $1,000 in value. Staff may not trade any asset within 72 hours before or after publishing an article that mentions that asset. Short-selling or leveraged positions on assets covered by the publication are prohibited.

These rules apply to all full-time staff, regular contributors, and freelance writers during the period of their engagement with MiningPool.
