== Summary ==
There is consensus that CoinDesk should not be used to establish [[WP:N|notability]] for article topics, and that it should be avoided in favor of more mainstream sources. Check CoinDesk articles for [[conflict of interest]] disclosures, and verify whether their parent company at the time (previously [[Digital Currency Group]], now Bullion) has an ownership stake in a company covered by CoinDesk.<ref>{{cite news|accessdate=November 21, 2018|title=Our Portfolio|url=https://dcg.co/portfolio/|website=Digital Currency Group|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180823172706/https://dcg.co/portfolio/|archive-date=August 23, 2018|url-status=live|df=mdy-all}}</ref>
