Notability not established for this arbitrarily defined event. The article may as well have been called "2017 cryptocurrency spike", prices fluctuate and media will always frame it in the most dramatic way possible. That does not mean that this event was anything but a news story. Ysangkok (talk) 15:26, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep & improve The crash was notable in its own right, I think. It is certainly adequately sourced. Both this article and Cryptocurrency bubble are a little meagre and need fleshing out, but the 2018 crash was a significant event and received massive coverage.

Redirect to Cryptocurrency bubble. The specific reasons for that crash are no more than the bubble itself. I think it might prove difficult to really improve the article beyond what can be summarised there. I'd be happy if someone could prove me wrong, though, as this particular crash was rather notable.

Redirect as suggested, per WP:CHEAP, and as a plausible search term. I would not oppose a selective merger. Bearian (talk) 17:20, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
