About Us

Cryptured.com is an independent news and education site about cryptocurrency and blockchain. It is owned and run by Azeem Zaheer and based in the Netherlands. We started in 2021.

We are not owned by an exchange, a token project or an investment firm. We don’t hold positions on behalf of readers, and no advertiser gets a say in what we write.

What we cover

News: regulation, markets, companies and technology, reported on weekdays.
Explainers: plain-language guides to how crypto works, from stablecoins to token standards.
Analysis: what a development means and who it affects, with the numbers behind it.
Events: previews and listings of crypto and blockchain conferences.
Company profiles: who runs a company, where it is licensed and what it does.
Live market data: crypto prices, market caps and the top crypto exchanges. Powered by CoinGecko.

Who runs Cryptured

Azeem Zaheer is the founder and editor of Cryptured.com. He has worked with computers since 1989 and has more than 35 years of experience in technology, business operations and software projects; since 2007 he has run Techno Assist, a Dutch digital services company. At Cryptured he sets the editorial standards and is responsible for what we publish.

You can find him on LinkedIn. His author page lists his articles and his crypto holdings disclosure.

How we work

We report from primary sources: the regulator’s notice, the company’s own filing, the report itself. We link to them so you can check what we wrote. One good source beats three outlets repeating the same number.

We use AI tools to help with research and drafting. How much human review a piece gets depends on its type:

Analysis and opinion: reviewed and edited by Azeem Zaheer before publication. Byline: “By Cryptured Newsdesk · Edited by Azeem Zaheer” (or “By Azeem Zaheer” where he writes it directly).
News briefs: drafted by an automated desk from primary sources, checked against those sources and published without a line-by-line pre-review from Azeem. Byline: “By Cryptured Newsdesk · Editor responsible: Azeem Zaheer.”

Nothing is published anonymously, and AI is never credited as the author. Full detail: see our Editorial Policy.

Nothing on Cryptured is investment advice. Crypto assets are volatile, and you can lose money. Do your own research and, where it matters, talk to a licensed adviser.

Corrections

If we get something wrong, we fix it. Email the article link and the error to [email protected]. We correct factual errors and add a dated correction note at the foot of the article, so readers can see what changed. See how we handle corrections.

Ownership and funding

Cryptured is owned by Azeem Zaheer, trading as Techno Assist (Netherlands). It is self-funded, with no outside investors. No exchange, token project or investment firm owns any part of Cryptured, and no advertiser gets a say in what we write.

Revenue comes from display advertising, sponsored posts, paid press releases and media partnerships. We run no affiliate links. See Ownership & Funding for the full page.

Advertising and sponsored content

Cryptured is funded by advertising and sponsored content. We keep that separate from our reporting:

Sponsored articles and press releases carry a visible “Sponsored” or “Press release” label.
Paid links carry rel="sponsored", as Google requires.
We only accept crypto and blockchain topics.
We never accept gambling, betting, casino or prediction-market promotion, at any price.

Paying for a post buys the label, not our opinion. Sponsors can’t edit our news coverage.
