Bitcoin Foundation

Does not meet GNG, also NOTINHERITED, and "existence is not notability." This article was likely created to create false notability for Bitcoin (via bluelinks in its article), as this is just one of several articles (all AfDed) dealing with this topic area and created by the same (now blocked) SPA. There are a lot of GHits, but they all lead back to blogs and such that seem to draw on the same Forbes.com article on the creation of the Foundation on 9/26/2012.

Delete or merge with Bitcoin. Subject lacks notability of its own. - Mr X 02:06, 4 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into Bitcoin, for lack of independent notability. -- The Anome (talk) 13:49, 4 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into Bitcoin. Article has almost no independent content, and no demonstrated independent notability. If we have sources covering it, then it will fit nicely in the parent article. If we don't, then it doesn't belong anywhere. — Jess· Δ ♥ 19:30, 4 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
