Bitwashing

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Very obscure jargon/slang term. Found almost nothing regarding this other than a Twitter hashtag in a WP:BEFORE search. Waddles 🗩 🖉 19:50, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete - This is a dictionary definition. The one reference is a passing mention that the use of cryptocurrency for money laundering is known as bitwashing.  A redirect to somewhere is probably in order, but this is not an encyclopedic article and the title does not call for a stand-alone article.  Robert McClenon (talk) 20:03, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per WP:NEO. It's a neologism with little use; of the 170k results on Google for the term most of them are for unrelated things like products for washing bits. As for the actual content of the article, it's a subject that's already covered at Cryptocurrency tumbler, and this doesn't seem likely enough of a search term to make for a useful redirect. - Aoidh (talk) 21:57, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Agree, DICDEF. Could perhaps be a brief section in a money laundering article. Oaktree b (talk) 23:48, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTDICT. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 06:32, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete concept may be notable but term is not and article unlikely to meet necessary requirements. Andre🚐 17:00, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
