Something is suspicious about this one. Articles from the one seemingly legit source look entirely like press releases. Hyperbolick (talk) 17:55, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Leaning delete - and crypto blogs in there too. But mainly press releases and churnalism - is this the best that can be found even in local coverage? - David Gerard (talk) 14:41, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Given the considerable levels of commercial advocacy, if this one is deleted it should probably be salted - David Gerard (talk) 15:20, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Original draft was created by paid editor Serghiy Hrabarook, then cleaned up and published by TviziJJskos (a new editor with a few other contributions). Multiple draft versions had also previously been created and deleted. There's lots of news coverage in Thai, though as usual, the independence of the coverage is debatable. --Paul_012 (talk) 15:04, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - This is considered a company so must meet WP:NCORP by way of WP:ORGCRIT. While there are a lot of references, they are mainly trade publications, press releases, or unreliable sources. The sources that are reliable are more of less brief mentions or promotional which do not cover the company in-depth. Outside of that, it appears to me like another bitcoin related spam article. --CNMall41 (talk) 06:35, 1 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - paid-for spam in a topic under general sanctions for extensive spamming. MER-C 14:43, 2 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
