// The site

Editorial principles.

A short list of rules the site tries to live by. They're here so you can hold us to them — and so contributors have a shared baseline.

  1. // 01

    Proof before promotion

    Every claim links to a source — a repo, a commit, a spec, a running node. If we can't link to evidence, we don't publish the claim. Marketing copy stays out.

  2. // 02

    Visible freshness

    Every registry entry carries a freshness state and a last-verified date. A project is only as useful as its honesty about whether it's alive, and the site is only as useful as its honesty about the projects.

  3. // 03

    No paid placement

    Position, ordering, and category are never for sale. There is no sponsorship tier, no boosted card, no affiliate cut. This is enforced by the fact that the registry is a public YAML file — anyone can audit what changed and why.

  4. // 04

    Tech, not tribal warfare

    We describe what BCH does. We don't take shots at BTC, BSV, or eCash to make BCH look better. When another chain does something interesting, we say so. Our case for BCH is that it's programmable cash — that stands on its own.

  5. // 05

    Community-run, not official

    There is no txlab.cash foundation, no protocol authority behind this site. Everything here is a curated view maintained by contributors. Where we lack expertise we say so, and we defer to the projects and specs themselves.

  6. // 06

    Built for translation

    The site is structured for i18n from day one — short paragraphs, plain sentences, minimal idiom. English is the source language, but nothing in the site's architecture assumes English is the only one.

  7. // 07

    Correction is a feature

    Errors happen. When they do, the fix is a PR — visible, timestamped, and attributable. Every page has a repo link. If you see something wrong, the correction path is one click.

These principles live in the repo alongside the code. If you think one of them is wrong — or missing — open a PR against this page and make the case.
