Topic: Reason why medium is suspending all bounty Hunters accounts (Read 871 times)
Its not a must to use medium or any social media website for promoting projects ,if they don't want it then they don't really want it on their website ,newbium is better and so is steemit but I really hope medium will have a second thought about this crypto article bans
Yeah many of my friends accounts have been banned. But my account was spared, I don't know why and am not complaining. I have decided not to post any articles on medium again to avoid my account being banned. I even avoid clapping for my friends project review articles.
From my side, I guess medium suspending bounty hunters (Not All I think) is because so many of them plagiarized the content, and that's make medium become low quality social blog.
Plagiarism is not what makes bounty hunters account to be banned. According to the medium rules which were attached to this thread, stated that bounty campaign is not wanted on the platform. So it is very clear that ones you are a bounty hunter and you post a blog to support a campaign, you will be banned from the platform. You may be thinking how do they discover this, but I think they actually build an algorithm to detect this and ones you are detected, you will be blacklisted before being finally blocked. Not only bounty hunters but any account that promotes bounty campaignMedium must be unserious too, so they want to be using people too free to supply content for their site at no cost and they will still not have anything to do that will benefit them.

I had problems with Medium and I contacted the stuff.
They explained me that if you are posting identical and similar content (like ICO reviews), your account is going to be suspended, as it is happening since more than a year.

Medium succumbed to the general trend to ban cryptocurrency, which took place in the spring of 2018. Many bounty hunters lost some rewards due to this sudden ban and were forced to use resources such as Steemit, Newbium and others.
I had 3 accounts blocked on the medium. although I wrote articles about many projects, but not just KLAPS. I don't like a medium
I thing there will be some other factors too as only crypto related topics or bounty programs articles may be not the main subject as per medium rules.
I think the major factor to why they frowned at bounty campaign is the ranking of a thing they mentioned about, I don’t know much about how medium operates full but I think they have a ranking system and reward put in place too for making use of their social media platform just same way bitcointalk does, bitcoin talk was specially created for things like this, so campaigns participation might be valid for criteria Bitcointalk used in also ranking while medium feel is not accepted or applicable to their.I just still see it has witch hunting too, probably they don’t have any way they can benefit from cryptocurrency like other i.eface book, and see no reason why their platform should also be used for what they don’t benefit from.

That's the main subject why medium has been banned a lot of accounts that related to the bounty or ICO promotion. Most of them are only copy-pasting from another person and that's why medium was putting really strict rules to its platform. Yes, right, I also asked this to their email, they said they would suspend the copying account that was not available or filed an appeal.

things like that are common in a media or forum. if it is considered spam, scam, bully, racist, it will definitely be banned permanently for disturbing other users. therefore, we must be careful when on social media, because social media is used by all people in the world and one of them may be offended and can report us.
simple reason for medium is not benefit from cryptocurrencies project, without cryptocurrencies we will not visit medium yeah. will gradually realize and will continue to let cryptocurrencies on him web and will be continue to run like other social media facebook twitter
The onslaught started in 2018 when medium management felt that bounty hunters spam the forum and thereby making the core readers of medium blog which are mostly not into cryptocurency irk. It led medium to take the drastic measure. Kindly use cryptocurrency friendly forums such as steemit.com, minds.com and LinkedIn.com. They all have large viewer base too
When activities like this happen to curb some actions and no matter the period of such actions, it demonstrates the lack of capacity of numerous projects and platforms to deal with a mass adoption! The exchanges are the ones that most demonstrate this lack of capacity. If Medium received any percentage of these bounties, they would not struggle to ban it last year! How are things these days?

Medium, Steemit are trash. Let´s use Publish0X together, it is created by Bounty0X developers, so let´s support a bounty platform what we are all using! 
I think one of thr reason for this ban is that most bounty hubters write article which are similar to paid shillings and it lioks like a financial advice. The best way to write and avoid medium ban is to write based on the technical prowes and opnion of the peoject and not as a financial advice
Aside this, most social media usually does not like cryptocurrency, Facebook started it first all account created for the promotion of cryptocurrency and also for the fact that they are not benefiting anything from these acts, most of these social media has already monetized the use of their platform and will not really promote your product without you paying for it and looking at many of these crypto pages, they don’t pay to promote their projects which makes them not to benefit from it because if they were fully against cryptocurrency, how come many of them are now beginning to introduce theirs too. 
I checked now and my account is not suspended, however I will pay more attention to my behavious as a bounty hunter from this moment. Thanks for information!
Regardless I believe it depends on the type of ncontent you published on their page
I have an existing medium account from 2018 that is doing quite good
I rarely make publications there though
