Start with the original source
Our guides link to primary sources for platform features, supported networks and published fees. A platform's own documentation is the place to confirm its current rules. It is not proof that a product will suit every reader.
When figures come from a data provider, the tool names that provider. The pool reader uses records described in DexScreener's API reference. A matching token name or a displayed price does not verify an asset's identity or mean you can trade at that price.
Make the assumptions visible
A calculator starts with values you can change. Its starting figures are examples, not current prices, fees or predictions. The formula and the limits of the model sit beside the result.
For example, the impermanent loss calculator compares a full range 50/50 pool with holding the same assets. It does not model concentrated liquidity. The Uniswap v2 pool documentation explains the constant product model behind that comparison.
Guides and tools provide educational information. They do not give individual investment, legal or tax advice. Crypto can lose value, and a transfer sent to an unsupported network may be difficult or impossible to recover.
Know what each date tells you
A guide's check date records when its information was checked. It cannot promise that a platform has stayed the same since then. Before moving money, confirm the asset, network, fees and restrictions at the source.
Retrieval time tells you when a tool obtained a record. It is not necessarily the time the provider updated the price. CAD estimates use a dated daily reference from the Bank of Canada's exchange rate data. It is not a rate a bank or exchange promises to offer you. The guide to crypto returns in CAD explains why the currency rate matters.
Correct the explanation, not just the date
A correction should fix the affected claim, calculation or example and make a material change clear to readers. Replacing a date alone is not a correction. If a source no longer supports a claim, the claim needs to be checked again, narrowed or removed.

Common questions
Does a calculator result predict a return?
No. It shows what follows from the values entered and the model used. Prices, fees and liquidity can behave differently from the assumptions in an example.
Does a recent check date replace my own platform check?
No. A date gives context for the guide. Check the platform's current asset support, network and transaction rules before acting.
