I think they are deleting only that videos of the crypto projects about the future of which we do not know. Many people are creating videos for the upcoming projects in many projects scam the investors. If someone want to create their videos about crypto and they do not want to see them delete then they have to create videos about the established and legit projects. I hope Youtube will not delete that videos of established coins and projects. Based on Twitter and Reddit threads, YouTube suddenly began deleting a number of cryptocurrency videos on Dec. 23.

I have seen this news as well. But not really sure what the reason for cracking down crypto videos in youtube. Somebody scammed them as well? 
I also checked all the channels that I subscribed in and videos that I bookmarked and they are still live, the uploader should message Youtube about this issue, there might be a new policy or there is a violation if you have videos with hundreds of thousands of views that means it's ranking and it's a big loss if they deleted it.
The renewal of new requirements made by YouTube now seems very strict and it seems that this only applies to small channels that do provide Cryptocurrency content because according to some news reports many large business channels related to crypto escaping the cull. And of course this is a threat to the world of Cryptocurrency because youtube is one of the largest video sharing platforms in the world and of course the ban might also have an effect on banning crypto on google like an issue that was once circulating in the past. 
Did they made any changes against cryptos in their terms and policies? I can still view videos related to cryptos and trading so they are not entirely screening crypto contents maybe some particular influencers who go against their community terms.
Same here. Bitcoin and cryptocurrency tutorial and educational videos are still available in Youtube. This must be limited to a few channels or influencers only. Perhaps they are violating certain terms or conditions. But this is not a complete ban for sure.

I am following quite few crypto related people myself as well and from what I can understand they have removed a lot from the people who talked about stuff like prices and charts and technical analysis etc etc but they also did the same for stock market people as well few months ago, so I think they do not want people to give financial advise to strangers on their platform.
For example, the people I watch and subscribe for mining related stuff are standing and none of their videos are deleted, maybe miners are getting a free pass because it looks like they are not suggesting anything to people but mostly showing others how the miners work and what they do etc etc. I kinda do understand why youtube may not want people to give out financial advise on their platform on the basis of "what if people lose money because of you" but that is kinda limiting free speech.

some time ago we have obtained the proof and indeed the plan has been around since last year, that youtube considers crypto as a dangerous asset so they prohibit all forms of content about crypto. but in some videos for bounty promotion, actually we can still see it some time ago, but don't know if everything has been banned now. I think the current policy of YouTube looks anethat the content there is also strange content that is trending.
Like the incident on Twitter that deactivated the Twitter account that spread about cryptocurrency but the incident did not take long and Twitter finally removed the rules about deactivating the account about cryptocurrency so in my opinion this will happen the same as the YouTube platform, it only takes time YouTube allows to re-activity about cryptocurrency
Maybe youtube are just playing safe here. Since a lot of people are losing money in crypto investments, they want crypto related videos gone so they will not be blamed by the proliferation of crypto-related losses. But I think should not be all videos, they should assess the content. If it is more on informational videos towards crypto, they should not delete.
This is most likely an isolated case because on YouTube without cryptocurrencies many fraudulent projects are advertised (sports betting, pyramids, hydra, etc.). It’s interesting to find out the reason for the removal from YouTube itself.Maybe youtube are just playing safe here.

Yes maybe youtube deleted all investment promoting videos that now are scam or possible scam, like facebook did before and not the videos like how to mine bitcoins, what is bitcoin and all informational videos as you said are not deleted.
I have heard this news and it is worst, youtube is one od the best way to speed up the mass adoption on cryptocurrency and as we can see that they are deleting cryptocurrency videos. Hope that they have a good reason why they are doing this move. But still, they should consider on stop this action against cryptocurrencies.
Did they made any changes against cryptos in their terms and policies? I can still view videos related to cryptos and trading so they are not entirely screening crypto contents maybe some particular influencers who go against their community terms.
Maybe it's not a policy change from YouTube, but there are some reports that YouTube might receive from people watching videos about Crypto.People can report any video and be reviewed by YouTube. Maybe the report deleted the video on that channel. but for other channels that contain crypto is still safe and can be watched.
YouTube is still in a position to prevent, but it doesn't make sense to consider that the deleted content is considered to be in the harmful category, they need further research on this.
But as far now youtube has no standards against cryptos,even I can see ads related to cryptos and blockchain much often than before.

Cryptocurrencies are risky and unregulated accept it or not especially for people who are not so techy. ICOs just raise money and then their products just never arrive. So, people feel that they could be cheated at any moment. And our ICOs are responsible for this. Now youtube too might have realized that this ICO thing is making their platform negative. Youtube too will soon realize blockchain's potential but Cryptocurrencies will never be something this would would like to advertise looking at the current reputation.

What I know, youtube has begun to accept crypto, but unfortunately what I see here youtube does not explore thoroughly about crypto or maybe just play it safe, and as evidenced by the number of my friends who were affected by scamm just because they were tempted by passing advertisements. Maybe from here also youtube limits content related to crypto, because if a scam is still hanging around. Many people will complain and YouTube does not want that to happen.

Actually this is sad news related to crypto. after google and facebook, youtube followed him to ban crypto ads on their platforms. This may be the youtube does not agree with crypto because there are too many problems or victims of scammers. I completely disagree that YouTube forbids crypto content-themed videos to be banned, I think YouTube needs to filter crypto content, if for the problem of bitcoin and blockchain technology. I'm sure it all started with a waste ICO that is of no use to crypto-wolrd.
Can't wait to see the whole Reddit cleaned up. Don't know about Youtube much since I hardly go on there and all the suggested videos are for me sports or music, but I would love Google to do the same for their search engine (since they now own Youtube right?).
Kill all the spam and ads, and keep the internet clean like this forum. Happy to hear this news to be honest!
Indeed. I think the only reason why YouTube did that because they heard that scams have increased in crypto that spread all over the internet, that is why cleaning all those messes by just deleting all their videos is the bestest way actually. I think other social media sites will also start to delete those crypto related that are not that helpful to people. Kill all the spam and ads, and keep the internet clean like this forum. Happy to hear this news to be honest!

It seems like Google used to also have a policy for cryptocurrency ads and it's been revoked. Regarding You Tube, maybe the deleted content is content that suggests investing in several or one type of crypto because from what I know there are still some videos about crypto that still exist but the content does not provide investment advice
There's a rumor spreading before but I don't know if they implemented it or not but I can't blame them to impose those since there are so many crypto scams involve and youtube has been used as their source of advertisement and maybe youtube find that dangerous to their users that's why they shut this off. And hope this could help to minimize the scams but although it can affect the platform who do a good performance.
It's not known what YouTube's move to crack down on crypto-related channels, but this is a bad influence for those who want to learn about cryptocurrencies. The reason has not been determined so we should not guess what to do, please wait for more new information from Youtube.
