1. Be respectful, stay on-topic: Debate the idea, not the person. No harassment, hate speech, personal attacks, slurs, or brigading. Keep threads relevant to the channel/topic.

2. No scams, phishing, or impersonation: Never ask for — or share — seed phrases, private keys, 2FA codes, or back-office access. No fake staff or “support” accounts, no impersonating public figures or brands.

3. Share responsibly (privacy & MNPI): Don’t dox people (names, addresses, personal wallets without consent). Do not post material non-public information (MNPI) or confidential deal docs. When in doubt, don’t post it.

4. Quality over noise: Back claims with sources or data. Clearly label rumors/opinion. No market-moving misinformation, clickbait, or coordinated “pump” campaigns.

5. Self-promotion: Promotional content of any kind — including shills, referral links, giveaways, airdrops, paid placements, or external sales funnels — is strictly prohibited unless expressly approved and posted in the designated promotional section by moderators.

6. Market integrity & illegal content: No price manipulation, wash-trading coordination, or vote-brigading. Absolutely no illegal content, NSFW/sexual content, malware, or exploits.

7. Respect IP & creator rights: Only share content you own or have rights to share. Credit original creators and link to sources. No piracy, no scraped paywalled material.

8. Safety first: Any content that compromises user safety or asset security is strictly forbidden. This includes, but is not limited to: wallet-drainer links, “free mint” or “airdrop” traps, malicious contracts, fake verification sites, or exploit tutorials.

9. Label what it is: Use accurate tags. Disclose financial ties (employment, investment, sponsorships). If AI-generated, label it. If it’s satire/meme, say so.

10. Moderation & enforcement: Mods may warn, remove, lock, mute, or ban at their discretion to protect the community. Severe violations (scams, hate, illegal content) can result in instant bans.
