CryptoAlgo’s editorial policy sets out how we decide what to cover, how we write, how we handle conflicts of interest, and what readers should expect from us. It’s the document we hold ourselves to.

Our purpose

To help self-directed Australian crypto traders make better-informed decisions about exchanges, bots, and trading strategies. We cover the topics that move outcomes — fees, security, regulatory standing, tax handling, real-world performance — and skip the noise.

Editorial independence

Editorial decisions are made independently of any commercial relationship. The editorial team:

• Decides what to review, when, and how, without input from the commercial team.
• Writes reviews using a fixed scoring rubric (see methodology).
• Will not change a published review at a partner’s request.
• Will publish a negative review of a paying partner if the rubric scores them poorly. We’ve done this and we’ll keep doing it.

What we cover

• Australian-registered crypto exchanges (AUSTRAC and overseas exchanges that legally serve Australian residents).
• Crypto trading bots and SaaS tools — automated strategies, copy trading, signal services, charting platforms.
• Algorithmic trading — strategy design, backtesting, deployment, risk management.
• Australian regulation — AUSTRAC, ASIC, ATO, RBA stablecoin and CBDC discussions.
• Crypto tax — events, reporting, software, and edge cases for Australian residents.
