 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article appears to be mainly WP:PROMO and does not seem to meet WP:GNG, because it doesn't look like there are multiple references that are independent, significant, reliable and secondary at the same time. It seems to be a lot of WP:REFBOMBING. Article can be kept if notability can be proved, but at this point I'm not convinced.

I did some research into various users contributing to the article discovered quite a few WP:SPA accounts:
 * Special:Contributions/Androphilijaslobodna
 * Special:Contributions/Circley
 * Special:Contributions/HNS_Counselors_for_Bitcoin_Suisse_capo
 * Special:Contributions/CarloatHNS4BS
 * Special:Contributions/Pollux2018
 * Special:Contributions/Mphorigin
 * Special:Contributions/Btcs_nama
 * Special:Contributions/Moongirl97
 * Special:Contributions/Innovativo1
 * Special:Contributions/Brandnewz

I think this is against the policies and guidelines of Wikipedia.

 * Comment: Note that most references are press releases, churnalism or non-reliable. There's a few reliable sources (e.g., , ), but far from WP:ORGDEPTH from what I found so far. --MarioGom (talk) 19:04, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete: there is some WP:ROUTINE coverage at Finews.ch, which could apparently meet WP:RS except for the Advertorials section. It is borderline regarding WP:GNG. I see this company quickly gaining notability if it really manages to get the banking license approved in Switzerland, but at the moment it does not seem to cut it. --MarioGom (talk) 07:42, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Thank you to MarioGom for wading through the muck to highlight the RS, and I agree with the determination that these are not substantial, therefore subject fails WP:GNG. Pegnawl (talk) 15:51, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
