What it typically covers
Bitcoinist publishes in English. SwapRocket keeps each story's headline, the short summary the feed supplies, its publication time and its link, and tags it with the coins the headline mentions. Topic mix is set by the publisher, not by SwapRocket.
Source and update methodology
SwapRocket reads Bitcoinist's public RSS feed on a schedule and stores each new item once. Nothing is rewritten, ranked or editorialised, and duplicate items are dropped.
Full articles are never republished here. Headlines open the publisher's page, each item is marked with the language it was actually written in, and artwork is re-served from swaprocket.com so a file the publisher later deletes cannot break this page.
Feeds are polled every few minutes. Headlines are stored for 30 days and always link back to the original publisher.
