Twitter to ban cryptocurrency adverts on its platform

https://punchng.com/twitter-to-ban-cryptocurrency-adverts-on-its-platform/amp/

This is quite true I'm afraid. Many popular companies, including social media platforms are banning crypto currency related adverts. The move forward to ban stems from the recent statements regarding regulations and other legalities surrounding crypto. It's best for these large scale businesses to take the safe route, rather than chance any legal trouble.
Maybe when these clarity and guidance navigating the legal waters of crypto, these companies may once again approve of crypto advertisement placements.

Not totally a ban on where it do prohibits crypto related adverts but this decision do really acts as a tighter restriction when it comes to crypto currency ads to prevent scam and do secure out possible investors which i do see a good thing which it do lessen potential frauds. For now i still sees some advertisement related to crypto but not as rampant as way before.

Yes it's true. But this is not a restriction, but a measure of security. The same goes with Facebook and Google. Many crypto projects turn out to be a scam. they just want to limit this to more people.

Unfortunately this is sad true. But if you worry about bounties, twitter ban only advertisement like banners and so on. But also I've heard about a lot of twitter accounts promoting ICO to be banned,so be careful

I think spam accounts only will be banned so bounty participants need to have time limit while tweets or retweets and still there is ni confirmed status about what they are going to ban because recently we heard that facebook banned ICO advertisement but now they are going to launch their own crypto.So we need to wsit and see waht about twitter and others.

It would be sad that twitter would ban crypto messages on its plaatform, because social media bounty projects are quite funny, they start your imagination. For some people, they can be a source of income, perhaps the main source of income. There was someone in this forum who said he hates crypto messages and can not relax. I think if you want to relax, go out to a park, green grass or practice your favorite sport. It's not a twitter fun.

Such an old joke or rumor. But believe me, it will never gonna happened. Social medias also received payments for the advertisements as long as it is not a scam projects.

They can't say which project is scam and which one is legit, and because of that it is easier to remove all ICO advertisements.
Investors should know that investing in ICO is high risk investment and that they should only invest money which they can afford to lose, but people are greedy and they are investing more and more money and when someone scams them they lose cars, houses and so on.
Bans are to prevent such people from financing scammers and from losing money.

You are absolutely right. Negative advertising in social networks leads to a drop in the popularity of the crypto currency. Social networks have a great influence on people's opinions.
But on the other side of this advertising has become very much. And not everyone wants to look at it.

They did not banned totally cryptocurrency ads on their site but rather they just do some adjustments to banned unauthentic one. For the more ads advertise on it the more chance of scam ICO. I see there are still some ads that advertise.

Edit: in addition they will not permit the advertisement if they wasn't received payment on it. Ofcourse it is business.

All the more reason for Crypto to solve its credibility problem. I think the solution will come from within- a crypto technology will make it possible to filter out the scammy elements in this space and this will allow publicly traded ad platforms to revisit their policy toward crypto ad-buyers.

Everyone in social media and google are banning cryptocurrencies ICO.
They can do that, so yes it is possible. why? they own the platform.
YET, they are just banning the advertisements and ICO, so they will not be some branch once the ICO is a scam,
they want their hands clean.
But they are still open with such development and project announcements. you can still post and share. but no ICO related.

Their operation would be just still normal but it do only prohibits about ICO.We dont know if their actual reason on banning is on cleaning up their hands with those scam ICO in the market or just purely being influenced by governments power. No matter what would be the reason either their personal or being mandated then it would be still final. Twitter ban announced it would be this day April 3rd,2018. Lets see what happen regarding to that new if it would proceed or not.

I guess this is now the reason why the price of bitcoin starts to go down again.

Twitter's CEO believes that bitcoin will be the world's single currency in the next 10 years but this ban of crypto ads was predicted by many speculators after facebook and google ban.

I to read about the Tom's prediction on bitcoin and there re shills still sharing crictic about bitcoin and ICO projects. If it is implemented also they may open scam bounty here and make the people to share the fake ICO on the social networks.
Even google looking to make the own blockchain for themselves. These kind of move will give more positive information about cryptos but here people does not positive always sticking with the negative news.

These bans are a result of the social media giants being American companies. The line of nonsense about placing the ban due to all of the scammers using the buzz is absolutely ridiculous. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has decided to apply pressure wherever they can in the interest of suppressing the growth and eventual adoption of cryptocurrencies. With google and subsequently youtube following suit on the ban in June of this year ICOs will definitely take a hit without the power of these platforms to disseminate information. How much is yet to be seen after June comes and goes.

Twitter follow other media giants: facebook and google. I believe it is another regulator plus, twitter don´t want to advertise so many ICO and crypto projects for free.
Or, maybe I am not correct.. But Company just post tweet and not suppose to pay nothing to tweeter?

But anyway, promoting ico´s would be a bit harder.. social media bounty campaign will probably change. I advise to use Steemit more, as crypto-project Steemit must support that.

Companies like Twitter, Facebook, Google, etc, don't need to advertise. Now, they do so in order to make money (as if they don't make enough as it stands), but they want to do it in ways that provides the least amount of criticism to their platforms. Where ICOs have been plagued with scams, no one really wants that bad connotation associated with them.

It is true, I think its been news for a while. I believe Google will stop cryptocurrency ads on their services in June, and I think Facebook already banned them.

It seems they're banning these ads since many of them are scams, which sucks for any legit projects trying to get their name out there. I think with how Facebook, Google, and a lot of these websites target ads to viewers with their browsing and search history, not a lot of new people were getting into crypto with online ads anyway. Chances are that if you were seeing crypto ads on your browser you were probably interested in crypto already.
