The standard

Satoshi Gazette corrects in public. When a published piece is wrong, the correction is recorded with its date, what was said, what the record actually shows, and how the error was made. Pieces are not silently edited, and a correction is never removed once published.

Claims Under Review carries its own verdicts. When a claim's status changes, every published piece that relied on it is re-checked, and any correction that follows is listed here.

    Liquid Is Paused After a 4,000 BTC Peg-Out. The Coins Have Not Moved Back.

    Wire · published

    What we said
    The Wire presented the actors' 03:30 UTC demand for a patch as the latest exchange and closed with "Blockstream has published no patch or post-mortem".
    What the record shows
    At 09:41 UTC on September 7, forty minutes before publication, Blockstream had signed an on-chain message reading "Bridge nodes are patched, safe to return the funds", which verifies against the key it publishes at blockstream.com/pgp.txt and was re-sent at 11:46 UTC. No public Elements release, advisory or post-mortem existed, which remains true.
    How it happened
    SG's pre-publication scan filtered on-chain messages by sender and printed only those spent from the actors' or the federation's address; Blockstream's messages arrive from other addresses and were not surfaced before publication.
    Blockstream signed on-chain message, Bitcoin block 965,912 ↗

    “The United States left the gold standard in 1971.”

    The first public worked example was not ledger-derived and linked Executive Order 6102 to 1 FR 1, an unrelated 1936 Federal Register page. This reviewed row replaces that citation with the order text, removes the unsupported 1974 restoration assertion, preserves the order's explicit exceptions, and replaces the seeded identifier with the deterministic ledger id.
