First was banning crypto currency ads specially ICO's.
https://cointelegraph.com/news/facebook-bans-cryptocurrency-ico-ads-because-of-deceptive-promotional-practices

We know its reason is to stop the scammers and also for misleading advertisements. But there are also good ones that are affected with it. Scared investors will withdraw if they see it came from a trusted or powerful person/company.

Now, #deletefacebook came. Looks like he found his rival and is somehow giving him a hard time.  Grin
What are they really? Fame whore? Facebook have been shaking the internet consecutively now. What is the purpose behind all of this? Is the money that he is receiving not yet enough from advertisements and now he wants to look cool?

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/mar/23/elon-musk-delete-facebook-spacex-tesla-mark-zuckerberg

What else must the crypto world face being dragged by this? Of course we are affected, we are talking about the WWW where crypto is injected and cannot get out and we need those advertisements as far as we could to reach out those people that haven't heard a word about crypto currencies.
If it is a good ICO they will not get affected with this because there are many ways to advertise their ICO. Ot is lo a good step to clean u the mess or shitcoins in cryptocurrency. It is time to regulate ICO to avoid more scammers to made new coins everyday.

It is not the end of the world that social media ban crypto ads on Facebook and Twitter. Those ICOs will find a new way to advertise their projects through other channels.

That's right. I think that those social media platforms would find and incorporate others means and ways to use the cryptocurrency market to their advantage. It's profit after all, so anyone would surely leave a space for it to come in. What I am saying is that, even if I don't know the reason why these social media platforms have to ban cryptocurrency-related ads, they would not let an uprising and legitimate business just slip their grasp and just not be a part of. Facebook and Twitter live by the traffic they get from people, and I am pretty sure that the number of people who login for the sake of knowing and learning about cryptocurrencies is a lot.

In the eyes of non-crypto people, all projects are somewhat the same. So a negative news to one, affects all the others.
On advertising, there's still social media. Even if without paid ads, we can still spread awareness/education.

I think this news has nothing to do with cryptocurrency, it's about politics in the USA. but for the twitter issue that will banned the cryptcirrency ads I think it will have an impact on the price of crypto in the market

Followed by Facebook and Twitter will prohibit the advertising of crypto currency. The Medium also blocks the accounts of those authors who write about ICO and the crypto currency. We were surrounded on all sides. Advertising projects is becoming more difficult. Who is next? YouTube?

First off, I don't think YouTube would be next because many contents have really been prospering in that platform. So many seasoned users share their knowledge about thec cryptocurrency market, so that platform is on the safer side. I think the reason why Facebook and Twitter blocked advertisements related to the cryptocurrency market due to the fact that many contents are actually useless contents and are only posted by some to have a post counted maybe for bounties, and that leads to complaints from users who are seeing those trash contents. Because if not for that, I am sure that those platforms would like the traffic they are getting from the people who check and do postings that have good contents.

Currently they forbid Crypto to enter their platform, but I also see their Crypto be accepted back by them, but if they still refuse Crypto will bring up a bigger and fresher platform from them.
So do not worry about the ban made by facebook and other media because every year Crypto will be attacked by various negative issues, you can see again how the drama in 2017 after China BAN crypto and they also swallow their own saliva.

Facebook is not the only social media platform that we can advertise cryptocurrency and at that Facebook banning ads which are crypto related is just a bit out of Lot's of other medium to advertise cryptocurrencies such as Twitter and all other social media and the rest of them all.

The blocking of ICO advertising and cryptocurrency is not the end of the world.  There are quite a lot of services and Internet resources that will advertise crypto.

I guess Mark Zuckerberg also wants to join the crypto and he will probably launch his own coin.

Facebook adverts are not only way of advertising, don't forget there are other ways too. Even if Facebook bans ad's of crypto forever, it is not end of the world. Good projects will come out on day light just the same. Maybe a bit slower, but they won't be stopped by Facebook. Those that are stopped by it, maybe they didn't deserve to be known. Good projects with good reputation will come out sooner or later.

But, do not forget that in Facebook to find a large number of users, this is a worldwide network, when compared with other social networks

Your statement doesn't prove anything. Facebook have large user base, but its not only place where crypto could be advertised. There are other social networks that are almost as strong as Facebook. But even if all social networks ban crypto ads, do you really think people will stop buying them? People always find a way to reach other people, why should it be any different with crypto. Also I believe that this ban is not permanent.

It's not just facebook, twitter and Google that restrict the advertising of ICO, so there's no need to be too specific about facebook.
Because, in my opinion, ICO is too chaos, so to a certain extent is normal,
Yeah, as what I have seen now that three websites are banning in ICO's ads they are deleting it, not only facebook but also google and now recently also twitter. Maybe those post or tweet that look like spam to the public they are mostly deleted on it, yeah maybe there's one reason in crypto's now chaos in cryptocurrency is maybe one factor of that.

Will,all of this we face and encounter this previous month the banning of ICO in some different countries and now the next we encounter,the probihition of cryptocurrency in doing advertisement in facebook,google and twitter,but maybe all of this coming problem now  in digital currency they have now a come up solution,before its implemented in this coming several months,and we hope that this ban of facebook is terminated and not implemented,because we already know how important the facebook in advertising about cryptocurrency,and not deleting the facebook is the main solution of all this chaos happen in crypto world.

Guys, new blockchain projects are already being developed which are real competitors to the popular social media, and many of them are specificaly for advertizing and ICOs... for those who say that we are surrounded from all sides: it seems that you don't believe in what you do yourself. Just imagine the opportunities of decentralizzation and don't worry!

The cry of the soul or what,maybe it will have an effect,but if after Facebook and Twitter has already imposed restrictions on advertising cryptocurrency,I think it will be a drop in the sea, unfortunately.

I don't think it'll matter much since most people are already deleting their facebook accounts, i doubt them bringing back ICO ads would help resolve the issue.
Deleting Facebook been going on. Most teenagers that hear of Facebook think that it's for old people.

It became a newspaper. (news feed). My brother told me that and it really made me laugh.
I guess Zuckerberg should create something new or he will be left behind just like friendster.  Grin

I too believe that the Facebook ICO advert ban was harsh, they should have just set additional requirements, e.g. must have a legally registered company, must provably comply with anti-money launders and know your customer regulations etc. There is no need to lay down a blanket ban, and since the negative publicity they have received, hopefully their business goes down anyway. #deletefacebook <- Already did, as soon as I read their data collection rules.

Yes and I saw one ICO now that will focus on that. I just forgot the name of it.  Grin
Focusing on advertising will be their service because of what facebook did to all the ICO starting companies.
Success is what I hope for them.

I am not using facebook very often,nor twitter so i dont really know what the heck is with these sites? i stopped using it a long time ago wayback 2012 because theres much spam and nudity back then,not interested to it anymore because theres no informative things in the sociamedia platform,most of the news are fake.I have heard facebook isnt getting what they want anymore,the users are starting to be inactive compare to the previous years.

Well I guess you are just like Elon Musk who didnt know a think about those social medias until recently.
They have been big companies that are worth billions of dollars.

Followed by Facebook and Twitter will prohibit the advertising of crypto currency. The Medium also blocks the accounts of those authors who write about ICO and the crypto currency. We were surrounded on all sides. Advertising projects is becoming more difficult. Who is next? YouTube?

What? I dont think Medium will do that also. That may have a filter for this for those scam ICO's only.
I will try to check this. Thanks for informing and hope it is not to happen.

Edit: None about Medium yet but this could be a good read.
https://austinstartups.com/medium-need-to-ban-stories-about-upcoming-icos-and-cryptocurrency-manipulation-7ad9f936bb5c

A filter will be good but banning everything is just too extreme. There are still genius minds out there that can really make a change.
