How to verify us. How to report problems. What we will and will not do.
Mempolitics is a Bitcoin operator publication. Our audience is sophisticated, our partners include sovereignty-focused brands, and the financial nature of our coverage area makes us a target for impersonation, phishing, and social engineering. This page exists so you can verify communications from us, report problems, and understand what we will and will not do.
What we will never do
- We will never ask you to send Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency to us.
- We will never ask you to share private keys, seed phrases, or wallet recovery information.
- We will never ask you to click recovery links or password reset links sent from our addresses unless you initiated the action.
- We will never ask you to download attachments outside an active email thread you started.
- We will never run "giveaways" or "airdrops" — anyone claiming to do this in our name is impersonating us.
- We will never DM you on social platforms asking for funds, keys, or sensitive information.
- We will never ask you to disclose passwords, 2FA codes, or recovery codes.
If a communication from "Mempolitics" asks for any of the above, treat it as fraudulent, do not engage, and forward it to security@mempolitics.com for our records.
How to verify a communication is from us
- Real Mempolitics email comes from
@mempolitics.comaddresses only. - Our SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records are configured at
p=reject. Emails failing authentication are rejected at the receiving server in most cases. - Our standard email signature includes this disclosure: "We will never ask you to send Bitcoin, share private keys, click recovery links, or download attachments outside this thread."
- For high-value correspondence, request our PGP public key. Fingerprint will be published here when the key is generated.
Social accounts
Our verified handles across platforms:
- X / Twitter: @mempolitics
- Instagram: @mempolitics
- TikTok: @mempolitics
- YouTube: @mempolitics
If you see a Mempolitics account NOT in this list, it is an impostor.
Site URLs
- Our only canonical domain is mempolitics.com (and the secondary
mempolitics.news, which 301-redirects to the canonical). - Common typo domains we own defensively:
mempolitcs.com,mempolitics.net. All redirect tomempolitics.com. - We do not operate any other domain. Anyone claiming a "mempolitics.io" or "mempolitics-airdrop.com" is a scammer.
How to report a problem
Report a phishing impersonation, a fraudulent message, or a security vulnerability: email security@mempolitics.com. We acknowledge reports within 24 hours.
For severity:
- Critical (active phishing using our brand, account takeover attempts, vulnerabilities exploitable in the wild) — we respond within hours.
- High (newly registered lookalike domains, social impersonators) — we respond within 24 hours and pursue takedown.
- Medium / informational — we respond within 3 business days.
When reporting: include the original message in full (headers + body), or a screenshot. Note the channel. Do not redact the impersonator's identifying details — we use them for takedown.
