You are right. I can not say the reason why it happened, but the biggest affected sector is crypto market. Now Bitcoin is around $ 8,300, hopefully the market will recover. But, we should get more potential coins for cheap price and when the time comes we will sell it for expensive price in order to get more profit.

When you talk about phony, I have no questions. But we are talking about all the ICO without exception. Who can determine that the project is a Scam before it starts to work?

they know this, do you really think that a company as big as google and with many genius people working on google would not think of something so obvious? Of course they thought, so why are they attacking ICOs? they could simply post a warning for people to know the danger and not banish, I think the google's decision should be that they are pulling bag from banks and regulators.

This is not a method of combating fraud. Many good projects will not be able to receive financial support. Again, the rich and corporations will decide the fate of all technologies.

they know this, but they must pull the bag of the rich, the government and the banks



Well let's move on and we do not give up because of this obstacle

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody
Bitcoin is going down regardless of any news. It's just the end of this bubble. Would help when people would fucking realize this for a sec.

What bubble? Quoting a post that I liked: "BTC it's not a bubble, it's a pin" Smiley
I hope you got rid of those worthless coins. Just don't come back crying in a few months.

As for google, somebody should ask them where does freedom end. Are they planning to ban all advertising? Probably not. So what is their problem with cryptocurrencies? They are an industry like any other. They are accepted in most countries and if something is not against the law and they are banning it, they are discriminating against it. People should start suing them.

Personally, I don't click on google ads. I think it's not a big deal for users, maybe for the advertisers yes. I've seen several posts about being scammed and victim of phishing sites because they clicked on google search result which most likely is the ad because it shows first.

Isn't it good that Facebook and Google want to protect their users from scammers/phishers/hackers through their ads regardless of the revenue they might get if they allow it?

I can agree if you aren't promoting any other scams , but they don't have a problem with the many phishing sites that are 1 on google. On the other side who where bought crypto because of a google ad , not much if any imo.

You are correct, good projects will suffer from this outcome. But look it from their side. They can't know which project is scam and which isn't. In sea of ICO's and scam projects it would be nearly impossible to find and root out scamming ones. So in this case simplest way is most effective, and that is: ban all of them. I believe that in time that will change, but till than this is best course of action I guess.

I feel that this news isn't nearly as big as it sounds. When actually using google I've very rarely come across crypto adverts and they're all for shitty scammy ICOs when I do see them. If anything it could actually be a positive, it definitely should not be hurting the price of bitcoin so significantly, I think there's more to that price fall than just this news.

Almost every single ad relating to this area is attempting to relieve you of your money nefariously. If it isn't outright scams like blockchain.info redirects, it's ICO bollocks with no intention of ever producing a return.

Can't say I blame them myself. Now to get anywhere all of these projects will need to become actually worthwhile. That's a tall but necessary order.


You are right but it's stupid to think that blockchain invented scams, like google doesn't have million other scams going on there. Do you wish a cure for cancer, check google what kind of answers you will get? Why don't they get into the war with pharmaceutical companies and corporations?

Nah. I don't think there's any area as genuinely and consistently worthless as crypto advertising. Sure, there's plenty of crap elsewhere but with crypto stuff you know misery is in the bag before you even click on it.

Let's ban it. I've never found any useful ads there anyway. All useful stuff is in the results, not the ads.

Most of Google Ads I've seen about crypto's are phishing sites when you are googling about MEW, Etherdelta, etc.


We will see how it will bring results. If the phishing and ICO scam sites disappear from the search engines, it can have a positive impact on the cryptocurrencies.

The barrier to entry to creating a bitcoin scam and then advertising it to 2 billion people to make a fast $10 million was too low. Just copy some code and change a couple lines. Most of the cancer scams have to launch a company and get securities registered with the SEC, etc.

We have nobody to blame but ourselves - all the ads posted were complete garbage for scams like ICOs, newsletters, and trading robots that steal your money. The move was to protect all the people getting scammed. I dont think it was to 'ban bitcoin'.

This is a war, they will chose a side if they bank crypto and that wi the beginning of their end. I use google but who f. them, I'm thinking about tor for sometime, we will use something else and we will win in the end. Google is strong but they can fall too if they make a wrong move, if they really do this I will think with right that they wish to protect corporations, governments and to f. off little man, I with delete my google chrome immediately, they can't win!

What is really happening? This same people has spoken positive about crypto currencies some months ago and they are turning around again to say they are banning its activities on their sites.
Dont misunderstand this move as hatred toward cryptocurrency. This is just a precautionary method to prevent people from getting scammed by the scam ICOs, I would advise not to read too much into it. Scam ICOs are the majority who advertise using Google ads, sooner or later it had to be taken care of.

If this news at the beginning of the appearance of Bitcoin will have an effect, but everyone knows Bitcoin now.
As you said, advertisers will look elsewhere.
If this ban occurs, the positives will be more than negative :
  • first page google search scammers
  • Reducing the success of scam airdrops
  • Low price of Bitcoin in the short-term
Yeah there are  positive things that would  happen if this would be implemented one of those are the protection of the people who patronize crypto currency against scam and for  the Google company reputation. So that if you say  Google everything you can  read and seen is reliable. The negative effects is that the Google company will lost some of their followers that patronizing crypto currency.

I think this may be out of greed and hatred for bit coin because it is decentralized and people did like it more than than fiat and the old system of fund raising we were having before.
