Editorial Guidelines

To maintain the encyclopedic standard of this resource, editors must adhere to the following guidelines when creating or editing articles within this category:

Neutral Point of View (NPOV)

All content must be presented objectively. Avoid language that suggests endorsement, promotion, or guaranteed success. Claims regarding future price movements or investment performance are strictly prohibited unless directly quoting established financial analysis or historical data presented neutrally.

Verifiability and Sourcing

Statements of fact, especially those concerning market size, regulatory status, or specific contract specifications, must be supported by reliable, published sources. Use the `<ref>...</ref>` markup for all citations. Sources should ideally be from established financial news outlets, regulatory bodies, or academic publications.

Clarity and Accessibility

Articles should be written clearly, assuming a reader who has a basic understanding of financial markets but may be new to cryptocurrency derivatives. Complex terminology must be defined or linked to appropriate explanatory articles (e.g., Hedging).

Avoiding Promotional Content

This category is not a platform for promoting specific exchanges, trading platforms, or investment products. Any article that reads like an advertisement for a service provider will be subject to immediate revision or removal. Focus on the financial instrument itself, not the vendor offering it.
