Topic: GOOGLE hasn't banned BITCOIN advertising - page 6. (Read 921 times)

I dont think google will gonna ban bitcoin because of the increasing number of ICO that are subjected to scam and fraud people in their advertisement. And the people itself will be the one who's gonna decide for themselves if they are gonna be trapped by this kind of ICO. They will just ban or limit the ICO ads that been on their site and Google has vast file and sites just to stop advertisement scam.

The price dump is actually not affected by the google bans. It is affected by the whale's purpose dumping of the BTC.

They are using this to their own advantage when they are rebuying the same coin for a lower price.

Google had some small influence on the market but it isn't actually a part of the cryptomarket so it cannot lower the whole market just like that. If they are actually trying to protect their users then I must actually congratulate them for their good move.

I've seen many article that tackled the issue on banning the ICO advertisements in their social media site like facebook,instagram and google but I dont see they are banning bitcoin in their advertisement. Those people who are making articles who says that bitcoin advertisements in google will be banned for their false news. Google and facebook are just stopping and making awareness on the rapidly increasing Scam/fraud ICO that is being advertised in many social media sites.

This is the bad news make BTC down price

The fear is real.  Guarantee that their large bank customers have pushed this agenda.  We need to obsolete them (both the banks, of course, as well as Google).  People often focus on Google's dominance in search, which is true, but they also dominate advertising.  Through Google and YouTube combined, Alphabet dominates too large of the flow of information in general.

Under Google’s newly updated financial products policy, no advertisements for “cryptocurrencies and related content (including but not limited to initial coin offerings, cryptocurrency exchanges, cryptocurrency wallets, and cryptocurrency trading advice),” will be accepted.

The move affects all of Google's ad products, meaning companies will not be able to serve crypto-related ads on the search engine giant’s own sites, as well as third-party sites in its network.

Oh come on man I don't think that Google baning news has got to do anything with the current drop. Why would people get scare because of such news and start dropping the bitcoin holdings. I'm sure that bitcoin drop is because of all other bad news and dumps that are in progress right now. One fud created another fud and thats what making bad reputation of the bitcoin amomgst new investors and the drop!

Google is just clean cheat and they have got nothing to do with the bitcoin. What they need is clean projects and clean platform that they have so far.

Lol i have read so much fud on telegram and twitter that google ban bitcoin advertising just to make those weak hands sell their bitcoins.

Do you have a link to prove that?
The search engine and the advertising services are very different things.

As has been pointed out, there is no Bitcoin advertising, but there is advertising about Bitcoin related services, and Bitcoin clones. Many of these have become scams, and this is why Google has had to act. There have been suicides as a result of the gullible losing money that they hadn't got.

Bitcoin Talk has introduced the merit system for much the same reasons, but nobody is saying that Bitcoin Talk is banning Bitcoin.

why google banned advertising about bitcoin?  because I think google will get a lot of benefits because of advertising payments that will enter from cryptocurrency

Gatekeepers.  Search engines are gatekeepers like the rest.  Same as YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, etc.  They show you what they want and hide what they choose.  In this way, they are no different from the information sources that came before them, television, radio, newspapers, etc.

Decentralization of all of the platforms is the way to ensure that there is no point of censorship/control.  Content that is illegal can be community moderated without a central authority.  Lots of decentralized platforms for video, search, social networking, microblogging, etc. are around.  Some of them are pretty good.

Most of them are still "federated" though, as compared to truly decentralized where nodes can hop on and off of the platforms dynamically.  So that's some work that needs to be done.  The other issue I see is a way to monetize it.  Both for the users that contribute content as well as for maintenance of the service, software, etc.  A decentralized platform spreads the cost out through many nodes all operating and constituting the network.  However, you have a user adoption problem if you can't afford to bootstrap the platform to sufficient size that it is a viable competitor to the current platforms.  The software will be open source but there are still costs of ensuring that great people are advancing, testing, auditing, maintaining the code.

I do a lot of thinking about this, have a bunch of ideas on how to advance it.  I look forward to cracking that nut.

The biggest accomplishment, quite possibly in world history, is devising a means to remove the power from the bankers.  Bitcoin has done that.  Everything else will follow.  Eventually, governments themselves will not exist in their present form.  This will not happen quickly, unfortunately.  But it's my goal to make it happen as quickly as possible.  Decentralizing everything (well, there's probably exceptions either with practicality or utility, so I'll just say decentralizing everything in the aggregate) is the way forward for humanity.

I feel from some news that spreading banning issues in terms of promoting bitcoin is a form of intimidation from certain circles who do not want bitcoin to be a high value asset. Because until now from what I observed that there is no form of ban from internet sites which is currently a way for promotional purposes.

I kinda have a question, what about the issue of search engine? I learnt that they will disable search engine  for Crypto related searching, in a way that when one is trying to make a research on anything related to Crypto the search engine won't work for such individuals

Google want to ban cryptocurrency advertise like ICO's, but not bitcoin.
They decide to ban this kind of ads because there are so many ICO's that scammed the contributors.

Hi All,

I have lots of keywords that apparently Google is going to take action against at some point, from what I read online.  However, as of now, this screenshot shows impressions/clicks of an ad that I created yesterday for my organization:


So they've not banned bitcoin as being a valid search keyword as of yet anyway.  I don't think they will when push comes to shove.  Also, "cryptomoney" is on the list.

I'd take more screenshots from other ads but it's been a long day.

Once again, another reason that Google has way too much power and control and needs to be obsoleted by decentralized ad platforms, decentralized video platforms, and decentralized search.

All of the gatekeepers must be dismantled.

Imagine the world that will be.

Best regards,
Ben

Yes bro, with you all the way and I've been buying on the dip ever since bitcoin dipped below $18k
so can you give me a ride home because I am skint and you know that I am going to be mega rich one
day don't ya bro 

Well there IS bitcoin advertising IMO. And they are made by big exchanges who wanted to earn money transacting in them especially when they offer buying bitcoin at a premium on their sites. Like in our country, this exchange site advertise buying bitcoin from them but with a markup in price but you can exchange them to cash at a mark down.

shut up because we have got to blames someone instead of the development team for building a system that is
eight years old and we only just found out that it won't scale [Problem] so we needed emergency action [Reaction]
and we found the way to fix it [Solution] was to go "off-Block" using the lightning network.

Ye old "Divide and conquer" plan via the lightning network that full of banking hubs is just about to kick in so just run with it
or use miners will all be out of a job, kids will be starving and it's all the OP's fault.

Yes people read that small print because we are being stitched up which you must had noticed when fees hit $55 per
transaction but were probably too drunk on greed to notice at the time so may I present to you the lightning white paper
that's full of fog but you just need to replace the word "Hub" with banks to understand the document.

It is crazy how misinformation spreads like wildfire!  Why won't people research?  This is one real problem in the world.  People are heavily influenced by the media and believe anything are told.  As your mother said, "Don't believe everything you read!
