Direct answer

HypeBasis is an independent educational site for Hyperliquid education, market data, and trader tools. The HypeBasis Team, @hypebasis on X, operates the site through a public, source-reviewed editorial workflow. We use primary sources where possible, show update and review dates, disclose referral monetization near CTAs, avoid restricted-jurisdiction promotion, and separate education from trading recommendations.

Current status

The editorial policy changes when the site adds live data, alerts, wallet reads, builder-code tooling, or any monetized workflow that needs a stricter disclosure surface.

Step by step

  1. 1Use official or primary sources for factual claims.
  2. 2Put disclosures near monetized actions.
  3. 3Review important pages monthly.
  4. 4Correct stale or wrong claims quickly.
  5. 5Document decisions in the repo so future agents can preserve the editorial rules.
Risk notice
Crypto perpetuals and leveraged trading are high risk. You can lose money through liquidation, funding, slippage, oracle issues, protocol failures, and market volatility.

Fee and risk notes

  • Affiliate monetization can create bias, so disclosures must be visible.
  • Crypto information changes quickly, so stale content is a product risk.
  • Comparison content can become misleading if fee schedules or access rules change.

Editorial standards

  • Lead with the answer to the user's query.
  • Use official or primary sources for claims about fees, referrals, restrictions, and protocol mechanics.
  • Show last updated and last reviewed dates on evergreen pages.
  • Avoid hype, guaranteed-profit language, or disguised financial advice.

Monetization policy

This site may earn referral rewards from eligible users who use a referral link. Referral CTAs must have visible disclosure nearby, and restricted-jurisdiction pages must not show referral CTAs.

What trust looks like in practice

A HypeBasis page must still help you when you never click a referral link. It explains the tradeoff, names the source, exposes calculator assumptions, and routes high-risk topics toward risk and methodology pages.

Corrections

Report corrections with the page URL, claim, source, and date checked. When a source changes or a page becomes stale, HypeBasis updates the claim, reviews the page again, and changes the visible review date. High-risk pages such as fees, referrals, restrictions, calculators, and deposit/withdrawal guides get monthly review.

Claim removal rule

Remove a claim when the primary source disappears, contradicts the page, or does not support the exact wording. Mark the topic unavailable instead of filling the gap with a guess.

Change accountability

Durable editorial decisions live in repository docs, tests, source records, and page metadata. A high-risk content change needs a source record, review date, and a regression check when the rule can be automated.

Example editorial decision

If a restricted-jurisdiction page ranks for a valuable query, HypeBasis still avoids referral prompts. Search demand does not override the legal and trust posture. The page answers the restriction question and explains why the CTA is absent.

How content earns trust

Content earns trust when it gives the inconvenient answer: no restricted-jurisdiction CTAs, visible referrer economics, estimates labeled as estimates, and clear unavailable states when a source does not answer the question.

How HypeBasis should sound

Use direct, specific trader language: funding, depth, liquidation distance, wallet prompt, review date, and official terms. Cut vague promises, hype, and generic SEO filler that could describe any exchange.

Product boundary

HypeBasis can explain, calculate, compare, and route readers toward source material. It does not manage accounts, promise outcomes, recover funds, or tell you that a trade is suitable. That boundary must shape content choices and CTA placement.

Review culture

Treat stale claims, outdated fee numbers, missing disclosure, and thin explanations as product bugs. Put the quality bar in docs, scripts, tests, and page templates so future work inherits it.

How often are pages reviewed?

High-risk pages such as fees, referrals, restrictions, and calculators should be reviewed monthly.

What makes a page publishable?

A publishable page answers the query directly, names sources, shows dates, explains assumptions, links to the next useful page, and avoids unsupported recommendations.

How do I report a correction?

Use the GitHub repository issue flow or the correction links on source-methodology pages. Include the URL, claim, source, and date checked.
