Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: OriginTrain on February 01, 2018, 03:00:45 AM I can see two sides to this honestly.
First, this is of course bad news to all of us crypto investors that participate in ICOs. Without mainstream public adoption in upcoming ICOs from facebook, no doubt the raised capital will be much less, potentially lowering global marketcap. On the other hand, there are too many dodgy ICOs that whilst I'm not saying regulations are the solution (the whole point of blockchain is to avoid regulations from central authorities) - something needs to be done, most likely by the community through some form of central registrar - whereby ICOs and their teams can be better vetted. There have been too many underperforming ICOs recently that have been heavily hyped, costing investors a lot of money. This will be more of an issue if this bear market continues. I think the cryptosphere needs some more time to mature and gain trust, and the dodgy ICOs somehow prevented, to prevent mainstream investors getting burnt more. If they continue to get burnt this will only give crypto as a whole a bad name as people tell one another that the whole sphere is a scam, even though of course we know better. The fact is most investors won't do due diligence. Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: thurlowweed on February 01, 2018, 03:01:51 AM I found this pretty interesting. They are letting me advertise my Youtube Channel, and cryptocurrency news website and FB page, so it's not all ads. . . . At least for now! :-\

Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: Sammylezzy on February 01, 2018, 02:41:30 PM I don't think they should ban any advertisement concerning Cryptocurrency.. I've been blocked several times and I keep posting. Lol
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: drmarcobelli on February 01, 2018, 02:47:11 PM This was expected to be honest.
People were taking advantage of it. Why not just do simple and legit ads instead of "Invest in our ICO for 100x profit"? If everyone used them as it should, probably no ban. Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: Kemarit on February 01, 2018, 03:13:03 PM ~ On the other hand, there are too many dodgy ICOs that whilst I'm not saying regulations are the solution (the whole point of blockchain is to avoid regulations from central authorities) - something needs to be done, most likely by the community through some form of central registrar - whereby ICOs and their teams can be better vetted. There have been too many underperforming ICOs recently that have been heavily hyped, costing investors a lot of money. This will be more of an issue if this bear market continues. ~ Exactly. This is what I thought to be the real reason why Facebook banned all ads promoting ICO or anything related to crypto. Maybe they have been pressure by the government for all we know. However, when crypto booms in the 3th quarter of last year, there are a lot of scammy ICO's that sprout out like mushrooms. And the unsuspecting victims all fell for them because of the promise to give them huge dividends. Its also hard to filter out scam vs legit and trusted ICO's. They are evolving as well. So with Facebook banning them, it will be really hard for scammers to advertise their ICO as Facebook is the #1 social media right now. Although they still have other options to promote it, I'm sure that all other social media will follow what Mark and his company has set as precedence.

They can pay famous Youtubers and tell them to say something about cryptocurrency at the end of the video, thus crypto will be well-advertised and without any problems.
People do not care about Ads on fb even if they are about cryptocurrency. Personally, I do not like seeing them on facebook. They are very annoying. And I believe they have already banned those Ads from fb.

People do not care about Ads on fb even if they are about cryptocurrency. Personally, I do not like seeing them on facebook. They are very annoying. And I believe they have already banned those Ads from fb. Well, we are different. I like the way I saw many crypto advertisements on fb which you can choose various of platforms to be invested especially those with good platforms but not so popular. The only I hated platforms which posted on fb are those with networking system with referral bonuses. Facebook is an advantage to people who are new in the crypto world but want to invest a new platforms. For me its good , but spammers abused it. Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: hurry_hore on February 04, 2018, 01:59:40 PM I think it is not a good news not only for bounty hunter but also developer and bounty manager, facebook is one of best media to advertise a product specifically ICO in this case. If facebook is banned, then bounty manager and developer should find other social media or mass media to advertise their products. As bounty hunter, it is important to follow the instruction from developer or bounty management. Perhaps it is better also bounty hunter to assist by inputting idea or feeding alternatives.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: pragna on February 04, 2018, 04:57:46 PM There is nothing to worried i think.

As a bounty hunter, its seems very alarming. Please read article: https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/30/facebook-cryptocurrency-ads-banned--including-bitcoin-and-icos.html?__source=facebook%7Cnow Alarming for bounty hunters? I see no. There are been ICO's in the past who not rely purely on Facebook in terms of advertisement. Yes it's a big help but overall, there are lots of means to spread their respective ICO's , not just in Facebook. If all about bounty thing, the percentage of rewards for Facebook bounties is not that much so a removal of it will not hurt bounty hunters. While on the other hand, if looking at the impact of advertisements, just look in the past where ICO's exposure is not that present much in Facebook but still some ICO's became success. And aside from that, there are ICO advertisements in Facebook that isn't good to be true. It will just lead for misleading information and conception by people about the project. So for me, that will be a good move by Facebook.

True, only the ads were prohibited by facebook officials. For you as a bounty hunters, you can still post or share bitcoin / cryptocurrency links, as usual. PS : Make positive comments about bitcoin on your facebook.

The decline occurred because of Facebook's ban on cryptocurrency ads and the growing regulatory reaction to newborn markets scared off investors.

Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: jayun on February 07, 2018, 09:33:45 AM It is definitely alarming especially with the number of people on FB currently. I do agree that these are all rumours until there is full confirmation about the ban on crypto advertising

Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: jerjer on February 08, 2018, 06:16:26 AM As a bounty hunter, let's be ready for whatever the decisions from fb. We need to switch to other alternative sites such as , linked in, instagram,VK which are some of bounty campaigns here in bitcointalk started accepting these platforms. ALso we need to practice more in blogging,video.. seems these campaigns has big allocations.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: batmanbabushka on February 08, 2018, 04:06:32 PM I am pretty shocked that Facebook did this, but I am happy. No longer will I see poor ICO adverts promising the world if I invest.
This will only empower bounty campaigns though as they will be more important to ICOs, so good for bounty hunters! Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: ronnis.gomes on February 08, 2018, 04:33:47 PM This decision does not impact the shared content, likes or posts, only the ads in the tool.
It is a decision that is not positive but aims to protect lay users from potential scam projects.

Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: carrie_white on February 09, 2018, 07:09:28 PM this is very bad news for the world of crypto and ico, because I think facebook is one of the biggest social media and almost everyone has one facebook account, with the ban ads on facebook, it will reduce the number of new investors as well
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: trobin on February 09, 2018, 07:15:40 PM Yeah, I read that and it quite caught my eye that many of these social media companies and owners don't exactly understand the principles behind an evolving and fast pace technologically driven market like the cryptocurrency. There isn't a bubble anywhere. To be honest I do not believe that a company like Facebook does not understand exactly what cryptocurrencies are like.Maybe they do it because they understand it too well and they see it as a treath. Facebook as a company believe it's their duty to protect their customers interests. I would say that my own opinion falls differently in thinking that it's actually their responsibility to vet those who choose to advertise with them. But it's there own choice. With greater regulation coming in to place in the market we'll hopefully have less and less scam ICOs and then facebook may open ad's again. Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: gyun.094 on February 09, 2018, 07:54:49 PM The sad news, but I place ads as before, while everything is fine.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: jerjer on February 12, 2018, 09:16:00 AM Seems facebook have changed their decisions? What do you think? At this time, we can still allowed to advertise our bounties there. i think its a good sign. Hope they will not totally banned crypto ads in fb, only those suspecious ponzi schemes and scam coins.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: kinki32 on February 12, 2018, 09:23:03 AM What a joke? CEO Facebook said half month ago "I like it ICO and we will be study it" then throught few time Facebook banned ICOs lol.

CEO Facebook said half month ago "I like it ICO and we will be study it" then throught few time Facebook banned ICOs lol. Yes, I remember half a month ago when the founder of facebook said he liked the cryptocurrency, and I thought facebook would launch its own cryptocurrency.I didn't realize that in half a month facebook had banned the ICO ads, and I even suspected that he was manipulating the market price. Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: jerjer on February 22, 2018, 10:09:18 AM I think they will not banned all the bitcoin/altcoins related ads on fb. Maybe they will be more strict now on it to minimize the advertisement of scam platforms or ICO's. On other hand, some of the bounty managers here in bitcointalk are always ready , I observed some of the bounty campaigns now have no facebook bounty campaign category.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: buhna on February 22, 2018, 10:15:41 AM I hope that it will be not with reposts and posts about cryptocurrency and ICO. I don't care about official ads but trend is not so good for us.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: Seth2009 on March 06, 2018, 12:40:32 AM I think facebook didnt really banned cryptocurrency and ico.. Facebook just become more strict to all the links that was posted.. Links should be ramdomly posted at a time to avoid facebook to delete post and consider it as a spam... I can still post links and bounties without getting deleted...and avoid posting same links to groups facebook may delete it.. Based from ly experience...
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: acell101 on March 06, 2018, 01:00:59 AM If this news is real then it is a very very sad news, as for all we know Facebook has the largest community in social media, it will be a great help in educating people with bitcoin. Or maybe their jealous because people were more busy in bitcoin rather than a Facebook thing.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: The Sceptical Chymist on March 06, 2018, 02:12:33 AM I can't say I blame them one bit.
There's a booming economy behind all this spamming, and we all know the hows and whys, because a lot of the recruiting for this shit happens on bitcointalk. I have a feeling that a lot of these people's social media followers are fake, and created for the purpose of allowing them to spam for money. And people are getting tired of seeing posts advertising these scammy-ass ICOs that they probably don't have a clue how they work anyway. I think it's a fantastic decision on the part of FB to do this. The part of my that is completely heartless hopes this hits the 3rd world shitposters in their wallets HARD. Maybe they can go out and get real jobs instead of spamming. Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: dificanovi on March 06, 2018, 02:34:12 AM bitcoin and other crypto currencies can still grow even if FB has banned ads about crypto currency. crypto currency remains widespread with google and other applications such as telegram, twitter, Blog and others. there is nothing to be worried about if only the FB prohibits because there are still other social media that still support crypto currency.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: lsd400 on March 06, 2018, 03:03:26 AM Sadly for me it looks like Facebook following banksters move and considering all crypto market as a scam or ponzi scheme. But there are legit projects. Because of scammers people now think all crypto world as a one big scam.

Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: Fantina on March 06, 2018, 03:21:48 AM in my opinion, Facebook makes a strategic mistake by imposing a ban on cryptocurrency advertising, it pushes its customers away
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: entrepmind23 on March 06, 2018, 03:28:31 AM Bitconnect is one of the reasons why nowadays people are careful with their investments. Some even borrowed money just to invest on it because they saw in facebook that others did it so thinking of short term huge profits, they decided to borrow only to be swimming in debt later on. More people are scammed because of HYIPs using bitcoin spreading in facebook so it is a good thing they decided to ban it. It is only the advertisements that they are removing anyway not the pages of the ICOs but there are groups who decided to change their group names so that if ever facebook decided to totally ban cryptocurrency then they would be safe given that no one would report them.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: SW33T on March 06, 2018, 03:31:13 AM Oh, yeah. I've read about this. This is on their "Prohibited Financial Products and Services" section. This isn't surprising, in my opinion, because this is how every major company deal with such financial services advertising. Coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin took this as 'intentional', which is true. Facebook is just speculative about the number of scams that are roaming all over its own social media-- and they're just protecting it by encouraging people to report content that violates this policy.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: tapaibuccok on March 06, 2018, 03:40:48 AM in my opinion it will not happen because it is a social media, in my opinion facebook will only block robot accounts that only post about crypto currency including ico

As a bounty hunter, its seems very alarming. Yes, that was a very bad news for us. We make a living thanks to the Social Media campaign, but facebook is currently banning shared accounts on projects that do not have additional income.Please read article: https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/30/facebook-cryptocurrency-ads-banned--including-bitcoin-and-icos.html?__source=facebook%7Cnow So my job now is to do the signature campaign and make sure my income is not high. Hopefully in the future facebook will stop the bitcoin bans so that bounty hunters can increase their income. Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: qweqwe2121 on March 06, 2018, 04:01:17 AM article said, fb will ban ads related to ICO, bitcoin, crypto currency. they do not say will ban post or group, usually bounty hunters just post and share ICO account post, likes, comments. hopefully they do not change their mind to ban post and share related ICO and bitcoin

Since Facebook is too popular that it easily attracts investors, and now that even those know organizations use crypto investing, the only sad part is even they gained popularity some still thinks of scamming people, this what advertising too much in social media were restricted. But I still can see crypto adds on FB.Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: jerjer on March 06, 2018, 06:06:03 AM I think facebook didnt really banned cryptocurrency and ico.. Facebook just become more strict to all the links that was posted.. Links should be ramdomly posted at a time to avoid facebook to delete post and consider it as a spam... I can still post links and bounties without getting deleted...and avoid posting same links to groups facebook may delete it.. Based from ly experience... That is also what i'm thinking based as we axperienced in facebook nowadays that they quickly banned all suspicious posts counted as spam in their system.Sometimes , they miss-lead the posts which they removed, their system detected it as spam, so all you need to do is to message them and they will going to put it back.

Please read article: https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/30/facebook-cryptocurrency-ads-banned--including-bitcoin-and-icos.html?__source=facebook%7Cnow for me it is okay for Facebook to ban all this ads, this ads only gives a bad impression of cryptocurrency because most of this cryptos are only scams that people generalize cryptocurrencies as scam which is bad for its image.

I think this is only for a short time because Facebook can not ban all ICO projects. If banned from the ICO, facebook is likely to lose a lot of good profit and difficult to attract new users in the future. I hope Facebook only bans ICO projects that have scams and should promote the ICO project with good potentialTitle: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: Jackypot on March 06, 2018, 06:59:11 PM Guys what can you say about this article spreading in fb that fb will going to ban all the advertisements which related to bitcoin and other crypto currencies including ICOs?

Many ICOs are frauds and so this is a threat.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: shaadsufi on March 18, 2018, 12:27:52 PM This step Facebook has taken may not have such a bad effect as people are thinking. If you look at the demographics that invests in initial coin offerings it is between those people who have stable jobs or are wealthy enough and who have an investment history, such people do not come on social media sites unless required so no harm may be done.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: shams on March 19, 2018, 12:25:27 AM If the population will stay unaware of the advances and the new cryptocurrencies in the market, a lesser chance of investment is probable. Once that happens the incentive to create more cryptocurrencies eliminates and that may trigger the start of the decline of the cryptocurrency market.
Title: Re: Facebook is banning all ads promoting cryptocurrencies, including ICOs Post by: rose9696 on March 19, 2018, 12:28:35 AM Although the information has been spread for a long time, there are many ICO projects that are implementing advertising on facebook. I think this is just FUD, it makes the price of the altcoins drop sharply and make the traders worry. Because of that rumor that my friends had to lose more than 20k $ per person. The influence of facebook is terrible.

Presently, i am still using Facebook for bounty campaign and i am still waiting for it to be fully integrated. What is of concern to me is that, this news caused some panics to some people and they went to dump fast, yet the banning is yet to be fully done. |
