It is astonishing to me that this article has been around as long as it has. It was written by a user whose sole mission in Wikipedia was to write promotional articles about clients of the 5W Public Relations firm. That user, User:babasalichai, along with his numerous sockpuppets, has since been blocked, though new users pop up all the time.
The article is attributed entirely to the GoldMoney website; there is not a single independent source for this article. I could not find a reference to the company in any reliable source; as far as I could tell, it has been totally ignored by the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and every other reliable paper on the American continent. I has been mentioned in a few blogsites that specialize in the gold trade, generally to discuss whether the company is a fraud or not. The general consensus of these blogsites is that it is not a fraud. Ravpapa ( talk) 10:59, 31 March 2011 (UTC) reply
There is an Finantial Times reference... that's mainstream enough.. still I agree, the article reads a bit like an ad and should be ammended. However, I don't agree about lack of notability.. check out the Digital Gold Currency entry.. they've been around for quite a while and are well known within the, admittedly specialized, DGC world.
