when you create a useful tool (in this case a currency) that you want people to use then you advertise it where they might be using it. for example when you create a crypto-currency you go to the merchants and try to convince them to adopt it, and generally do things that can help that kind of adoption.
but when you create a tool that is only used for speculation and pump and dumps then your audience is a very different group of people. so you also advertise in different circles. there is no point advertising an ICO and any of these shitcoins these days anywhere else but bitcointalk because all the speculators/gamblers are here and you want them to invest and you know nobody else would even care about the useless ICO tokens.

On the BitcoinTalk forum, if any of your projects or posts are sufficiently engaging, your posts will always be on the front page of the forum. ICO projects are also developing strongly. But if you post content that is not appropriate for the subject or the wrong words you may be deleted or banned.

Also, because of so many scams, most of the genuine ICO posting gets deleted in this forum. What do you have to say on that?
Well there's really not much else to say other than it's unfortunate. It's sad if a legitimate project that aims to move the community forward dies because of lack of funding. I still believe the really great, innovative ones will get the support they deserve though -- we just haven't seen it in practice on ICOs because nothing of the sort has ever really existed yet. One example I'd like to point to is Bitcoin, which never really needed initial marketing or funding, just because of how revolutionary it is.
The bigger problem at the moment, in my opinion, is that even legitimate projects only really use the blockchain as a buzzword, and as a result, they release superfluous solutions to non-problems.

It turns out that it is. This forum is one of the few places where you can officially promote ico.
September 14, 2018, 08:15:47 AM
Only advertisements have been banned, on social media platforms, Crypto and Bitcoin have not been banned. I think there is enough discussion which happens on twitter and all other social media about cryptocurrency, adaption of Bitcoin and Crypto has got very less to do with advs ban, there are many other factors, like lack of trust, governments not supporting cryptocurrency. etc.

As far as I know social networks have banned ICO ads, but you can still do there groups and official pages and promote them with the help of bounty hunters.

Bitcointalk is very effective medium for cryptocurrency promotions and ico marketing they have already proved in past and now better than any advertising bitcoin forums are important for advertising
September 14, 2018, 08:01:45 AM
Yeah, this is a difficult situation for bounty hunter. This is affect to reduced demand to start ICO project. But don't worry there is a good way, like article, translate, or airdrop. Good luck.

As far as we've researched ,there are very limited mediums to market and promote cryptos and ICO's ,as the most prominent social media platforms has banned cryptos. This is one of the major causes for lack of acceptance for Bitcoins and cryptos. What do you think ? and what steps should be taken to remedy this situation?
Actually, the main cause for ico itself is the number of people currently making ICOs but it is not in accordance with the roadmap they made. only a few can really fit the line, this is actually what I think is why IOO is currently low in interest.
for the current case the steps that must be taken care, we must be able to provide the right analysis, regarding ico ico which indicated a scam will arise, this is expected to trigger a positive value back to investors.

There are plenty of choices when it's about to find a channel to market. Find your targeted audience you will find your related channel. Even if some removed crypto advertisements it doesn't matter. Not a lot was using it so, and the ones that used, have already found alternatives.
The forum(s) is/are maybe the last channel you could use to market a crypto project, to be honest. All you need is a good communication strategy

Well, social networks still a nice medium to promote cryptos. I have seen lot of instagram groups about cryptos, even some coindrops are made in instagram now days. I think other way to promote icos is with google or facebook campaigns, you know those systems where the click have a cost but will get to the market you are searching for.
Even with social networks and campaigns you are right, the promotion on the forum is always much effective than social networks.

Bitcointalk forum indeed is the most effective way to promote any cryptocurrencies related things because it is the place where the crypto user gather around. It makes this is the place where you need to go first. But it does not close the possibility social media marketing isn't working for cryptocurrencies, It able to promote to a wider market.

Well this is where your target market is, so it makes sense that advertising here is effective.
I'm guessing social media was effective at some point in time too, because they wouldn't have been banned otherwise.
Either way, I don't think this is much of a contributing factor in crypto acceptance. This affects ICOs more than anything, especially because cryptocurrencies don't market themselves anyway.

To answer your I question, I think medium is good for article type where ICO's dev team can promote fully their project and it easily approach to peoples.
I guess he/she is talking about the recent bans on facebook and google. To answer your I question, I think medium is good for article type where ICO's dev team can promote fully their project and it easily approach to peoples.
