Non-notable cryptocurrency. At this point the article serves as an ad for a failing "project" and there aren't good enough sources to explain why it's a failing project. There was "Rhett Creighton - The "Serial Forker" Now Wants Bitcoin Prime". Then "Hacker Livestreams 51% Attack on Bitcoin Private" which is a big deal for a cryptocurreny but no mainstream coverage though it was later referenced in a CoinDesk article "This College Freshman Is Out to 51% Attack Your Cryptocurrency". And recently "Coinmetrics report: Over 2 million Bitcoin Private tokens were covertly premined, breaking the 21 million supply cap" also a big deal that I doubt will get non-crypto news coverage.

- Delete - very little substantial mainstream RS coverage that I could find. Bloomberg coverage is about future plans, Yahoo coverage is a Coindesk reprint - David Gerard (talk) 11:00, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
- I'll note that it's an interesting and controversial topic inside the crypto world, e.g. [1] - so it's not impossible coverage could break out. But it really hasn't yet, and this would make it a WP:TOOSOON - David Gerard (talk) 11:07, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - Just another coin in a sea of such coins, really nothing special, and given recent events, unlikely to catch on anytime soon. Psiĥedelisto (talk) 12:51, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
- Delete The subject of the article does not seem to be notable enough, and its sources do not seem to be appropriate for encyclopedic standards. Ktrimi991 (talk) 13:36, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
- Delete if, though very unlikely, more coverage shows up, it could be re-created. Simply has not received enough coverage. Eddie891 Talk Work 22:44, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Fails the GNG at the moment. Thanks, L3X1 ◊distænt write◊ 15:09, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
