Comment: Time to stop this draft and allow everyone to spend their time on things more productive. Getting notability for a block chain company requires truly independent sourcing demonstrating corporate depth, and the most recent source added is about an IPO offer in an industry publication. WP:NCORP lists IPO as an example of corporate trivia. A WP:REFBOMB does not help either, since the text is not a summary of those sources. In common with most companies, corporate depth is not demonstrated here. ChrysGalley (talk) 10:31, 27 May 2026 (UTC)
- Comment: This is still AI, changing a few words around won't change that. It needs a human to rewrite the article and to provide a neutral summary of reliable sources. The sources here do not support the current text or show evidence of summary.As a general point, what is needed in this area is corporate depth as indicated in WP:SIRS. It is very rare that a company can meet that, but if it does it is because there is clear evidence of this depth in reliable sources. See also WP:BOSS. ChrysGalley (talk) 12:53, 6 April 2026 (UTC)
