Topic: MEDIUM is banning Bounty dedicated account (Read 328 times)

There's a space for everything and those fake ICO review sp don't belong on Medium. It is unfair to those who actually do write about projects objectively... But actually, I think those are safe from suspension the way I see it.

This is sad to see.  I do see changes in the future though.  Sites like Steemit are catching on (although I personally don't like the platform) and I believe that we'll see many more coming to life in the future.  Of course, getting the amount of users like Medium, Facebook, Twitter & Google (the last 3 for advertising) will take some time, but I also feel that we'll see rapid growth in some of these platforms from the crypto users and supports, which in turn will bring it to the masses.

Sorry that your account was banned, that is bullsh*t.

Cryptocurrencies on Medium

Coins, tokens, ICOs and other payments related to blockchain technology have seen a growth in popularity over the last several months. There has been a subsequent proliferation of information on Medium around these topics.
For consumers
Medium does not approve or verify user-generated posts or accounts before publishing. As with any financial transaction, we urge you to protect yourself and your money with at least the following steps:
Thoroughly research the information, company, and seller using third party sources before engaging in any transaction.
Verify you are dealing with the company itself (not an impostor).
Navigate DIRECTLY to trusted sites before initiating any payment.
If you have any doubts whatsoever, do not engage in transactions.
