TRON (cryptocurrency)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable article about a new cryptocurrency. This is too soon at best, with the article supported largely by original research and unreliable sources. The article does not meet WP:GNG or WP:CORP notability guidelines and most certainly does not have significant in-depth coverage. Please note I have not found much other than promotional hype in my pre-nomination search for sources, but I am happy to discuss any specific sources that may be relevant.

 * Delete Agree with nom about sources. L3X1 ◊distænt write◊  14:58, 15 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete No coverage in mainstream media. Seems like another attempt to use Wikipedia to promote an obscure coin. Retimuko (talk) 18:42, 15 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Received some coverage in RS when it peaked in January but not enough, fails GNG. (As an aside, it reached a market cap of well over $10 billion with just a whitepaper and no product; seemed very much like a pump and dump scheme built around the personality of the founder.)

 * Delete the only coverage is promotional hype, and not so much of it in reliable sources as to make this notable. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 00:28, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete poor sourcing, promotional hype. Smallbones( smalltalk ) 17:57, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment This is all I could find: Newsweek and CNBC. Not sure if that is enough though.Perrythwi (talk) 01:32, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
