already 10 topics about this. dont create more.....

I must have missed those. Can you link please?

There is no impact on this for crypto market if the news is real. I already guessed this would happen because FaceBook have already initiated ban on crypto or ICO advertisements in their social media and Google is the mother of FaceBook, so it is obvious that this steps would be taken.

We have other search engines and I think due to this other search engines would reach to the moon and compete with Google if Google bans crypto related ads.

It's not bad news, it's good news.

Most of those ads were for phishing sites, designed to steal people's log-ins for the exchanges. It gave noobs a bad impression that the crypto space was full of scams and crooks.

Same, i partially support Google in their move.
ICO scammy ads are popping everywhere and many people once seeing multiple ads tend to trust it and fall in this sometimes obvious scam.
Although, some well established companies shouldn't be affected by this ban, it should be more selective.

No matter whatever be the next in line, a next company to do it. Every week there is news circulating about regulation and may result on a decrease in price, but time will come that all of this be done. None will close its door to cryptocurrency. When that time comes it would be a bullish increases of a lifetime. A new history will be made, better be optimistic on this days.

I hope no more will ban cryptocurrency maybe they have effect because google add for sure help to people to convince to join and invest to cryptocurrency.  We know that cryptocurrency is good for us because we can earn money or profit.  So the better we gonna do is to continue our journey and don't be affected to the news who are negative because they know that crypto is become more popular and successful so they want to be fail.

That's true. If Google is doing their part in protecting their users from being involved with sites that are intended for scamming, then I don't see anything wrong with their choice to ban such crypto-related ads. I guess that this may be generalizing, but this is the consequence we have to suffer for involving cryptocurrency in such motives. Not only is the reputation of crypto on the line but as well as Google's if they push through with allowing such sites to lure around their platform. It's a smart and safe move for Google.

I think it's a good news and not a bad one.
So no need to worry for this.The advertisement will make negative effect of crypto currency.This forum is quite enough  for the promotion of bitcoin.And if you get profit from crypto currency,share it to your friends and colleagues.

Facebook removing ads about Bitcoins, ICOs and Cryptos, No problem.
Google to ban ALL Crypto related ads, still No problem.
Where are they when Bitcoin and Alts are just starting? Posting an add about Bitcoin and Alts are not limited to posting in search engines. There are other mediums like forums, blogs and those established sites that publishes Cryto related articles. There's a lot of online shops and casinos out there that accepts Cryptos so there's already a demand.

Haha I laughed out loud. Thanks.

That's bullish!
Do you know how many scams had been advertised via google and Facebook?
Way too much!
For the long term this is very positive and it was long overdue.

Exactly !!! No advertisements, that's a GREAT thing !! Just tell all your friends about the BIG GAINS you made with bitcoin, that will do it!! Hahaha, you guys really gotta stop, you're cracking me up

Bad or not this was something that can be expected way to much around with this and most are scams and pushing sites.
Maybe this way we will have some more room for real advertisement but think this is just for short term, eventually this will be returning to previous in very short time.

But where? Not on Facebook or google

if this will truly happen, there are still oyher means in advertising...you can discuss it to your friends and relatives, truw it is not an easy task but for me it will work

I've seen this for the nth time.

This is bad news for those developers who makes ICO as their business. No more big platform to advertise their scams.

Yeah, exactly.

If anybody bothered to do some research, most ads you see on google relating to crypto are phishing sites.

This is true especially with mixing services. Don't believe me? Literally search up bitmixer and the first thing you get confronted by is probably going to be a phishing link. And google wasn't doing anything about it.

I'm guessing this is why we crashed to the $8k level we are at right now. People don't realize that most crypto companies actually don't do advertising on mainstream platforms anyways, and the people who do are there to target newbies.

When people do realize it, expect the BTC value to rebound back up to $9k+.

There will be no more scam ICO and google has protected its revenue.
do not respond to this with panic, but some people are in panic and cause the price to get red. :(

And there will never be. They are adverts and everyone can decide to change their ad policies anytime any day. Moreover, I am sure the OP is only fond of picking the headlines alone and seeing it as a bad news without even reading its contents.

Google have a huge point on what they are trying to do and considering the level of scam and phishing that has been going on with adverts and a lot of people falling for it, I am solidly behind them but that apparently will have no effect on the cryptocurrency market, so OP can take a chill pill and go to sleep.

Can't see it as a bad news. There are don't much crypto related ads in Google back then but still crypto reached it's steady status today.

Google searches pointing to some crypto related services e.g exchange names, coin name etc. are not filtered properly so banning ads will be a good mvoe. Some malicious site always on top of that search results creating a clickbait especially for those who are not aware of the system.

And even that news is related to the current bearish market, there are lots of reasons to believed that soon this trend will end.

Last year facebook and now google then what next? actually this kind of news is from FUD's 'cause to be honest if they totally confirm that issue why still there are some results about crypto related content from google and also in facebook?  So for the sake of bitcoin price stop posting this kind of news 'cause it's a big impact to create a panic selling. 

FUD mongers are always not tired of spreading stuffs like this. When it is good news, you will hardly see 10 topics

being created at once, and once according to them they feel it is a bad news that can easily spread FUD and panic, they go around spreading it. I am not surprised since the OP's personal message is SOLD and looking through his past posts, his account was deliberately created for FUD, may be it is high time people started putting him on their ignore list.

Yes, but people are panicking in such cases and that results in normal coins losing a lot of market capitalization. I agree that it should not be this way and ads are not actually important, but with people paying attention to anything at least slightly against cryptocurrencies done by major companies, it is the kind of news that make the current price of bitcoin almost as low as $8k.
Nevertheless, such moves are probably necessary if we want the market to be cleaned of scam. I think that eventually it might even help with the prices situation, since more real faith will be put in the market.

I have noticed you bro! You are a huge alarmist. Do you know what those ads have caused for people? How do you think people always end up on phishing sites in case you have not noticed? This is not a bad news and Google had good intention for this but you guys always like to paint everything as bad news apparently. It is long overdue considering the level at which most of these ads have done more harm than good.

In fact, I give my 100% support. I have seen a lot of people making use of Google to visit a particular website, and the first thing that comes up are ad related websites when you make a search on Google with some of them being phishing websites.

So many users have ended up being a victim as a result of this and if Google has decided to make a stop to this, I am totally in agreement. Apparently, they are more concerned about the users than the revenue they are getting and they have their integrity to keep as an ad space.

I think that is not the right issue, it is this kind of thing that makes bitcoin down, wrong media, the absence of scientific evidence, if indeed google prohibit, the proof is still a lot of news about crypto in google, essentially not forbidden, but we should be more careful in bitcoin investments, do not be tempted by big profits, see also the risks that we can

This will be one of the reason why they ban the ads. Most of the people just dont get it. In my country 60% of the population thinks crypto is a kind of modern scam, because the media only reported the news about the people who got scammed by scammers. Now that more people are aware about cryptocurrency, then the social media is the best place to do the scam via advertisement.
