GEO for crypto: how to get cited by AI
Crypto is money and risk — pure YMYL: AI engines pick sources carefully and fear getting price, fees or safety wrong. To be cited you need verifiable on-chain data, disclaimers and freshness against the volatility.
Where you lose AI answers
- AI cites CoinMarketCap and Binance, not your project.
- Prices and fees go stale within hours — AI picks a fresher source.
- Without disclaimers and on-chain links AI treats the content as risky.

FAQ
Why is GEO harder for a crypto project?
Crypto is money and risk (YMYL), and data goes stale within hours. AI is stricter on authority and freshness, so verifiable on-chain data and disclaimers give a big edge.
