Previously we have seen Google/facebook doing this with the name of client safety from risky investment and now its YouTube turn to do that. YouTube hasn’t banned these contents rather they are restoring crypto contents. It may be that they are just doing a test to see crypto community reaction on this move. Strong criticism from crypto community forced them to restore the contents.

        As per my opinion it really seems like they are banning cryptocurrency advertisements. I think they are only promoting some advertises which is more profitable for them, that is only my conclusion but I think its quiet accurate.

It seems that there is a strong wave against the Crypto market when YouTube has deleted a series of videos related to crypto. Coinbase's Dapp browser on the App Store was removed and Google blocked MetaMask in the Google Play Android app store.

It is already clear that we have confirmed the negation of the entire google company including youtube in banning cryptocurrency. People might have different preferences in looking up to what cryptocurrency could bring, but if it reaches a larger scale, it is a matter of "business" now, their only problem is how to make their attacks clean so they will not lose more supporters to their activities. With this, we could simply make our move to use different platforms for advertising cryptocurrency.

Youtube is one of the highest source of information being in social media. About ban issue among crypto coins ads and videos, it may be a struggle for those who wants to start crypto life over internet, but we should also think that not only youtube can produce such info’s, maybe its time for us to be independent of ads/ videos of crypto’s.

Youtube may be awared of these things and ideas of crypto, there might some thought of youtube avoid endorsing bitcoins/ crypto currencies and be more focus on social issues and events all over the world.

I think it has a big effect in the community if the cryptocurrency related videos in YouTube was all blocked and banned surely YouTube was a big platform for cryptocurrency and bitcoin to influence a lot of people in the world, and I think with this videos getting banned could affect and prolong the process of cryptocurrency to be implemented in a lot of countries.
Lets state the facts here as per the statistics 5 billion videos are viewed on a daily basis and the amount of videos in YouTube is really huge and the so called influential videos are viewed by people who are already in the crypto market and it will not make a change in the adoption of crypto in certain countries. The reason for the blockage is not yet known but they have already rectified the issue

 because sometimes they are promoting a scam website or projects. I think YouTube just realize it lately and just announced that it is a mistake. But it was just may theory since YouTube called it like this

It is a fact that the scammers are using their platform to get the maximum reach around crypto investors and i support YouTube if they are able to block all the shit coin projects so that we will be able to get rid of these scammers.

I think it was by mistake. They have updated the algorithm. I heard that they will restore those channels and video. So don't panic.
The opinion about algorithm issues is right and YouTube finally said that this was all a mistake and that's really a mistake on their part.

YouTube Calls Crypto Purge a Mistake But Many Videos Still Missing

But as YouTube already address the issue and called it a mistake for me it was hard to believed, I also created videos in YouTube and most likely if you have original content on your YouTube it will not going to get any copyright issues or any error, But cryptocurrency related videos getting banned or blocked surely YouTube have it already in their thoughts or maybe the YouTube platform is getting a lot of reports from this videos because sometimes they are promoting a scam website or projects. I think YouTube just realize it lately and just announced that it is a mistake. But it was just may theory since YouTube called it like this , I think the issues is already solved and videos should be back online already.

Don't be afraid guys , if you want to get more information about cryptocurrency you can visit forum cryto ( Bitcointalk , Altcoinstalk , Crytotalk , etc )
Platform video streaming it's not just YouTube.

It was a huge effect of banning crypt from using YouTube because YouTube is a large company where it can easily advertise and it can help to spread bitcoin.  Site like bitcointalk was not like YouTube that can easily advertise to promote bitcoin that's why it would be a huge effect from spreading crypto to people.

People often misuse social media and channels like YouTube for their shady business and scams.
So if YouTube removed any of such videos it was because of protection of users and to protect themselves not to have to deal with different complaints and possible scams. As far as I know many websites do the same. That is not aimed against cryptocurrencies but at protection of users so there is nothing wrong in that. Maybe they also removed some legit content by mistake but I'm sure they'll make it right.

You don't need to be scared mat, youtube has already apologized that this was a mistake with their platform  and they are doing their best to get this rectified. Though i have not heard any of the victims commenting  that his videos have been restored but seriously you don't need to be scared as there are other streaming platforms that are eagerly waiting for all this crypto users to onboard

It is! But youtube already apologizes to everyone for the mistake that they've done and is planning to restore those deleted videos by their bots. It is already been talked in another thread for what the youtube management has been done.

I'm sorry but why you need to be scared? I'm sure that you already learned a lot from watching youtube videos so it's about time that you practice it yourself. As far as the bans, I don't think that youtube wanted it to be permanent. Perhaps they just wanted to get rid of the bad eggs here and free their system with a lot of scammers. Nothing to be afraid of.



@Kemarit, sure are right. it's time to start puting into action what you've learnt.

I donot remember going to youtube to search for bitcoin related tutorial's. i did when i was learning how to send an encrypt msg's,blockchain ...

Honestly, i think there is little to learn on youtube that you cannot find in here.

they seem to have admitted their failure
it was something with the algorithm update that went wrong , too many of this happens lately
and yeah Youtube is the last source of information in regards to crypto
but it is a huge platform to overlook if you want to promote something related to bitcoin and to see your work of a couple of years undone is bad
Youtube said they would reinstate the channels , by the way

Is this for good ? I mean you will no longer be able to upload such videos ? Even if I saw a lot of shady videos about cryptos on youtube , I have some decent channels that I follow in order to take my extra info about a project or a trading tip so I don't see the reason of why this videos will no longer be legit for uploading.

Regarding scams on youtube this is a step-forward in that direction and I do hope only the real good channels will remain active on this category.
Most of educational channels are doing fine albeit the massive news regarding the raiding of crypto channels. Youtube will not just outright ban without a proper reason and they are doing this because there are too many garbage videos talking about scam investment. I'm myself always stumbled upon such videos everytime I'm trying to seek information regarding crypto so it's not a problem on my end. Youtube also want to reveal from where the funding of a channel comes from and if it comes from a shady organization it will be taken down aswell.
There are youtube channels that are spreading wrong information. Youtube want to protects its community and that is why there are crypto contents and channels that are been banned recently. It makes me cringed when I see a youtube video that is spreading misconception to its viewers and for me it should really deleted. Those video maker are also ignorant because they really do not know what they are saying.
