Non-notable crypto nonsense. Even by the low bar of our crypto standards, it’s still not notable. Lacks any meaningful independent coverage and is, like most crypto in 2024, a dime a dozen. GRINCHIDICAE🎄 20:45, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Cryptocurrency, Companies, and Malaysia. Shellwood (talk) 21:02, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: CoinGecko has been used in academic research ([1], [2]) and their API has brief tutorials in various books ([3], [4]). The coverage within each source is thin, so I'm not sure whether it's enough for a GNG pass. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 23:03, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Sourcing I find is strictly primary. I don't think the sources above add to notability either. Nothing for GNG here. Oaktree b (talk) 23:26, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
- Comment I also did some google scholar searches and this company is used a lot as a data source. Some news orgs rely on their data too. I found this from Journal of Data Science in Germany which uses them throughout a lengthy article as one of two examples of a data provider and this conference proceeding which has a paragraph and bullet points that explain their services.

- Delete as it stands - Coingecko is important inside crypto, but I'm surprised to see zero RSes on this article - it's all crypto blogs. There are RSes that mention Coingecko in passing, but nothing I know of that's about Coingecko. We can have an article when we have RS coverage sufficient to pass WP:NCORP - David Gerard (talk) 23:16, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
