Unfortunately this was created because Wikipedia refused to keep articles on obscure altcoins so it’s very crypto heavy. That’s why a16z has jumped in I’d imagine—they very much drank the crypto koolaid and like the synergy.
This was also why I could never really see this becoming a serious product. It’s an SEO trick for ICOs looking to hype themselves, a far cry from a knowledge base. Mismatched incentives will screw up the value prop.

From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability Most altcoins are not notable by the Wikipedia standard of notability.
