On the one hand, this ban is good becausethere will be will less spam any garbage in  social networks but it would be better to forbid the advertising of cigarettes. I think this  situation will weaken marketing to many projects.

Can't believe they did this as they are losing easy money on this especially with the amount of cash that ICO's are throwing in marketing.

I think that it is their loss and they are only doing this for PR.

Facebook had banned me every time for nothing! I was trying to register 4-5 times. I did nothing on page but after 1-2 hours I had been getting ban. So I am not surprise that FB are doing it now Undecided Roll Eyes

I think this is the right decision. A lot of spam in the FB and multi-accounts that take part in bounty campaigns. The next step is to make Twitter. Moreover, campaigns in social networks are ineffective for the promotion of projects.

I'm very happy that they took this step. There's not one serious crypto add that I saw on Facebook! The "good" COINS AND ico's don't need to run a apid campaign on Facebook, only shitcoins were advertising on FB and Instagram trying to make idiots throw their money away.

This prohibition applies to Facebook's targeting ads. In your tape, no one forbids you to write advertising posts. Although over time it's possible to take over and personal tapes.

In my opinion, this is due to the fact that a lot of ICOs that people advertised were fraud and people complained, so now they will filter out the advertising of various projects
This is not filtered in all the shit ICOs because many good ICOs also available in the market so both are affected in same time it is little sad news in many investors. I am also worried about the cryptocurrency advertisement banned in Facebook  because it is easy to gain some knowledge in upcoming coins.

I already mentioned that i don't agree with that this new policy about ICO adverts, but there is a big plus in this decision for another platforms for ICO promo including our favorite - bitcointalk.org Wink

Ya, Facebook banned fake ICOs who are running there promotion campaign on social media platform. They say if the contents of ICO are against our rules & regulations and could be spam then we banned them immediately. But those ICOs who follow our rules and have genuineness, then there is no problem. I think this is a good step to save peoples by fraud.

This is a side effect of poor/scam/fraud ICO/ITOs.

It needs to be remedied -- this is the single biggest thing I hear when I talk to people who follow the crypto market from "the other side" (investment banking community).

And I have to agree with them, there's too much low-quality stuff out there.

We will fix this problem, though.

Best regards,

Facebook is banning all ads that promote cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, in an effort to prevent people from advertising what the company is calling “financial products and services frequently associated with misleading or deceptive promotional practices.”

That means no advertiser — even those that operate legal, legitimate businesses — will be able to promote things like bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, initial coin offerings — ICOs for short — or binary options, according to a Facebook blog post.

this might be true. all my share from medium was forbidden. I think facebook doesn't allow medium post again too. this is bad.

... and soon to be overtaken and demolished by decentralised social networks ...

What exact social networks do you mean? What the point in "decentralized" social network in compare to centralized one?
I don't think the Facebook going to be overtaken by anybody in nearest future.

who gives a shit what facebook does and does not do.

the average person on face book that has not heard of bitcoin and has not already looked into crypto is probably worth about zero in investment terms

facebook is demonstrating what a pile of centralised shit it is and soon to be overtaken and demolished by decentralised social networks

not to mention this news has been the seed for 50x of this same thread since yesterday

very unconvincing because I see facebook itself has long been employed in terms of crypto problems and it is in my opinion reasonable to bid.

Facebook is just complying to what the SEC is doing,mark zuckerberg really intended to have his own cryptocurrency but U.S government might be holding his kneck right now thats why he did this,facebook is a user friendly socialmedia platform when you read their TOS they do not promote pornography ,graphic violence,and including fraudulent acitivities like investment scams-which ICOs are qualified to because most of the ICOs nowaways are just raising funds then will eventually ran away.Facebook is just being protective to its users and there is nothing new about this ban,i have been using facebook from the past 11 years thats why i know how facebook works,they are regularly making changes in almost everything.

I didn't see this coming because Facebook never usually turns down a quick bit of cash on a fad. Honestly it won't impact too much because you can just create good content to be shared by bounty campaigns or shared in groups.

Just really shooting themselves in the foot and losing some revenue. Personally I just think it is a marketing campaign to seem more moral after the whole Russia election scandal.

Seems Facebook is deciding to grow a moral backbone all of a sudden...

I think that too, same as Chinese government banned ICO's to protect its citizens. I don't think there is any bad intention.

A big step against crypto currencies again, Wonder what caused them to take this extreme step, before this they were implementing accepting litecoins as a payment system.
