About
A feed of new tokens, and nothing to sell you
New tokens appear every day and are written about in a hundred places, much of it paid for by the people selling them. Token News Network reads those places, keeps what is news, drops what is promotion and says who reported each story.
What it is
A digest. Almost every story here was reported by someone else. Each one carries the name of the outlet that published it, an excerpt and a link to the original. The full article stays where it was written.
The site does not issue a token, run an exchange or a wallet, or take a share of any trade. It has no connection with any exchange or project named in the feed.
What gets in
A story is kept when its headline is about something happening to a token: an exchange lists it or takes it off, it launches or goes on sale, it is given away, it is hacked, or a regulator or a court rules on it. Each story is filed under one section by the words in its headline. The filing is done by rule, not by an editor, and it is sometimes wrong. Tell us when it is.
What is left out
- Presales. Nearly every article about a presale is paid for by the project. None is carried.
- Price predictions and “coins to buy” lists, whoever wrote them.
- Press releases and sponsored posts, including the ones outlets run without a label.
- Casino, betting and bonus pages that crypto sites publish for search traffic.
- Bitcoin and Ether price talk, ETF flows and other market chatter that is not about a new token.
Where the stories come from
Every ten minutes the site reads a fixed list of feeds: the listing notices of the exchanges that publish one (Kraken and KuCoin), about twenty-five crypto publishers, among them CoinDesk, Cointelegraph, The Block, Decrypt, The Defiant and crypto.news, two security firms, and a set of news searches. Binance, Coinbase, OKX, Bybit, Upbit and Bithumb publish no feed, so their listings arrive through the press.
The whole list, with the time each feed last gave us a story, is on the sources page. It is built from the last reading and cannot be edited by hand.
One story, many outlets
When several outlets report the same event it is shown once, under the fullest version, with the others counted beside it. “Most carried” on the home page is ordered by that count. A story many newsrooms ran is likelier to be true than one that appears in a single place. It is still no guarantee.
Notices from the source
A notice that comes straight from an exchange is marked “From the source” and links to the exchange's own page. It is the exchange speaking for itself, and should be read that way.
Field notes
Field Notes are written by readers and checked by an editor before they go up. They are the only pages here whose text is ours to answer for. Writers must say if they hold the token they write about.
Who pays
The site is privately published and paid for by one banner on the home page, always marked as advertising. An advertiser buys that space and nothing else: no story, no mention, and no say in what the feed carries. We do not take banners for token sales. The terms are on the advertising page.
Not advice
Nothing here is a recommendation to buy, sell or hold anything. A new token can lose all of its value, and many are designed so that the people who made it profit when it does.
Corrections
If a story is in the wrong section, a credit is wrong, or a field note has a fact wrong, tell us through the contact page. Mistakes are fixed, and the page says that they were.
