Yet another non-notable bitcoin website. Almost no mentions in any reliable source, any are only in passing. Fails Wikipedia:Notability (web). Jon Kolbert (talk) 22:26, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete ,,, Spam on some software, happens every day and this isn't notable. Hey you, yeah you! (talk) 07:32, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Delete - while the software isn't spam, it is not notable. It also reads as such as an ADVERT and also not only that the references are mainly using github, and minergates own website which github does not necessarily count a reliable source as it is opensource and usually the repo is maintained or made by the company in this case Minergate. Only real source for it from at least what I consider reliable is bitcoin.com which is a news source for cryptocurrency, and bitcoin.it which is I consider one of the reliable wiki's out there on cryptocurrency, but mainly sources are minergate download links, and one affiliate link. --Clarkcj12 (talk) 18:09, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - per nom. Article is written as an advertisement and promotional. Does not pass WP:GNG. Pretty sure this is also WP:G11 worthy. Operator873CONNECT 00:40, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
