About Satostar.

What it is

Satostar is an independent publication about bitcoin self-custody. It explains wallets, backups and recovery, and follows security advisories and fraud warnings from their original sources.

The site is organised in 6 sections: Wallets, Backups, Scams, Advisories, Inheritance, Privacy. It publishes long-form guides that answer the questions readers bring, shorter pieces on what has just happened, and a glossary of the terms it uses.

Who publishes it

Satostar is published by Martin Kessler. It is not affiliated with any company, product or organisation it covers, and nothing on the site is paid placement.

How the material is made

Every piece names its sources and links to them, so it can be checked. News is retold in our own words from the original, never reprinted. Figures appear only when a source states them, and nothing is invented to fill a gap — no quotations that were not said, no forecasts of our own, no illustrative numbers. The full rules, including how images are chosen and credited, are on the methodology page.

How the site is paid for

• Advertising. The site carries none. If it ever does, advertising will be labelled as such, and advertisers will not choose, see or influence editorial material.

Corrections

When something we published turns out to be wrong, it is corrected on the page. To report an error, write to editor@satostar.top with the address of the page and what is wrong; a link to a source that shows it helps.
