Reddcoin
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No evidence of any notability. Sources show that it exists and gets passing mentions as an example of  a cryptocurrency, but nothing to show that anyone has written about it in any way that might convey notability. Not only fails WP:CORPDEPTH but can't get close to the WP:GNG bar  Velella  Velella Talk 18:45, 9 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment: I understand that Reddcoin is not a major cryptocurrency but I find it strange that Potcoin, blackcoin, vertcoin which are also small and barely known cryptocurrencies may be on wikipedia and not Reddcoin. I also tried to detail much thoroughly the blockchain process and the cryptocurrency caracteristics than the articles regarding those other cryptocurrencies. And I added the article from "cryptocoinsnews" which is quite a reference website in the cryptocurrencies business to support the fact that there is indeed a public knowledge about this currency. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tcharig (talk • contribs) 14:11, 12 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete: A WP:SPA article on a topic deleted twice previously at AfD. While Google Books shows brief discussions in publications on cryptocurrencies, I am not seeing anything in the sources provided or found through searches to indicate that the previous consensus should be overturned.

 * delete fails GNG just, and the promotional pressure pushes it solid into "not worth the community's effort to maintain" territory. Jytdog (talk) 05:02, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment: I quote the article : "But this steady enrichment [12] relies deeply on the stability of the currency, which is not very common for cryptocurrencies, Reddcoin included, whether on the long term[13] or short term[14]" Do you really think that this is "promotional pressure" ? Please give me some feedback about which sentences are qualified as promotional — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tcharig (talk • contribs) 02:35, 15 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment: I am not sure on time frames for deletion, but taking the points made above and in the prior AfD's I believe this time round the page can be crafted into a valid wiki.Cryptognasher (talk) 14:38, 15 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete (due to a GNG failure) and Salt - 3rd time's a charm. Exemplo347 (talk) 14:39, 15 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - I find mentions in trade publications, but they are only mentions and the publications not reliable. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH. --CNMall41 (talk) 01:46, 16 April 2017 (UTC)
