I think some other platform would take the slack for the advertising bans imposed by the likes of FB and twitter and that platform would be greatly rewarded for it. I have no idea which platforms are in good position to benefit from these bans but I'm positive that somebody will come out on top in all of this. The business from crypto is just too good to pass up on if you are in the position to provide service to those willing to pay.

As long as there are large community support of the cryptocurrency, banning will not stop the people from getting into it. Many companies are threatened by cryptocurrencies particularly to bitcoin. Financial and banking institution are the biggest enemy of cryptocurrencies and large social media platform is their police.

No surprise here. They are just being overly cautious and they are following others like Facebook. I think this measures are just temporary and they will soon change their policy and allow crypto ads again, but with manual approval case by case.
Not only this large social media company but others in the technology sector including google just a few days ago going public they were pulling all ads relating to cryptocurrency and not just ICO sales of these alt coins.
So I think that makes all three of the big three:
Google, Facebook and Twitter.

Anymore to come? Maybe Apple for their app store or maybe Amazon. Undecided

I expected youtube to follow suit in this as well. With the ban of facebook and google, this is not a surprising move for twitter. Although it will be hard for the ICOs to reach as many people as they can because of these bans, this is also good for the majority of people who are easily swayed by the advertisements that you can have too good to be true returns in a short amount of time. There are exceptions to it as well so I think as long as the ICOs would be able to fulfill those requirements then they are good to go. Otherwise, their only way to promote their campaigns is through bounty campaigns.

Report: Twitter Prepares Ban on Crypto Ads

Twitter is reportedly preparing to prohibit advertisements for ICOs, token sales, and cryptocurrency wallets. The new advertising policy is expected to come into effect in a couple weeks. The microblogging site is said to impose a ban on ads for crypto exchanges, as well, bar a few exceptions. The policy change is yet to be confirmed officially.

Some Trading Platforms May be Excluded from the Ban

Following similar moves by Facebook and Google, Twitter is now preparing to ban crypto-related advertisements on its platform. The new advertising policy will be implemented in two weeks, Sky News reported without revealing the source of its information.

Report: Twitter Prepares Ban on Crypto AdsThe upcoming rules will likely prohibit advertisements for initial coin offerings (ICOs), token sales, and cryptocurrency wallets globally, according to the report. The reasoning behind Twitter’s decision is unclear. Other companies imposing restrictions on crypto content have cited concerns over illicit activities and fraudulent ads.

The ban may also include advertisements for cryptocurrency exchanges. The report suggests, however, that the new policy will be launched with some “limited exceptions” in regards to trading platforms. There has been no official confirmation of the policy change yet.
