These bans are having a real bad effect on the crypto ecosystem. We should act and do something.

Someone start a project on creating decentralized net or something. Also, some ad services that are crypto friendly and stuff.

We need hardware for infrastructure to beat Google for crypto's sake. Anyone got an idea?

what does ending manipulation have to do anything with creating a crypto focused ad network?

the fact that someone bans bitcoin or bitcoin related stuff should not even matter to anyone as long as they understand that centralized entities have no effect on decentralized bitcoin.
and as for manipulation it will happen as long as people pay attention to the nonsense and also as long as the exchanges are risky places so that people don't stay on them, effectively making them small with thin order books. that helps a mini whale to dump and cause panic.

The ban is actually a good thing in my opinion. So much shitty ICOs and phishing advertisements. The prices just goes nuts just because people panic about every bad news they see, even though the news is actually somewhat irrelevant. It's the people's mindsets that should actually be changed.

The population of people that involve in bitcoin or crypto currency still remain, but the promotion and the number of users who are entering in crypto world are decreasing because of the banned, we should accept the fact that google has a huge part in promoting crypto. this is huge down fall.

This is the problem with some of the people who are quiet easily swayed by FUDs but, on the other hand, it open up a new opportunity for those to ride the train they missed out last year.

People should just shift their advertising to crypto currency forums like Bitcointalk.org and other social platforms, where Crypto currencies are welcomed. They should also protest against this decision. A blanket ban on Crypto & ICO advertising is totally bullshit.

You only ban something, if you cannot manage it. If the SEC regulated ICOs and you could differentiate between the good and the bad ICOs, then this would not have been banned.  

This move is making the digital currency world obviously in danger. As of this posting the value of BTC is below 8000$. I think they are making the line thinner for this type of currency. If they are manipulating as said, could it be that they are also trying to implement their own digital currency later should BTC lost against it? Well if this is the case will just wait and see.

You have made a very valid and important point. Bitcointalk.org is a very supportive site for bitcoin and cryptocurrency. People should look into this direction and forget google for now, I tell you google will be the one to come around just like China has been trying to do.

Creating a futures contract for Bitcoin was probably the worst thing that could have happened to the crypto space. I would humbly suggest the majority of the manipulation stems from this and the fact people can bet on and then act in ways to make their predictions come true. The MSM has given a platform to push the price in one direction or another depending on good news or bad. So unless everyone turns off the news, doesn't read newspaper or internet articles we are stuck with it.

Did u even read the ad ban info ? They're trying to weed out the scamming ads that steal people's money.

They're trying to make it so that only legit crypto companies get picked as ads.

True but again if there is no awareness campaigns then how will we attract more investors to crypro, or do we assume that crypto doesn't need anymore fresh investors?

The fact that someone bans bitcoin or bitcoin related stuff should not even matter to anyone as long as they understand that centralized entities have no effect on decentralized bitcoin and as for manipulation it will happen as long as people pay attention to the nonsense and also as long as the exchanges are risky places so that people don't stay on them, effectively making them small with thin order books. that helps a mini whale to dump and cause panic.

Don’t feed the whales by selling your bitcoins at low prices, hold them for a long time is the only solution to reduce the manipulation effect in the market.
Bans can’t increase the effect of manipulation until the community is strong.

That is a manipulation, TS was talking about. Don't you understand that Google and others now trying to be a decision making Center for Decentralised blockchain.
They already made this to Internet, and some good web projects like Jullian Assanges' Wikileaks could freely get and send information only through TOR network. Now they want to Centralize and to manipulate crypto market.
That's what we should understand and to create something alternative.

Brother i can understand your scenario its not about googles ban or any other platform Ban its about whales they are simply dumping for their gain . Even Fact is google and Facebook advertisement ban good for Crypto world .

I don't have any idea about this because as far as I know, google is trying to conquer internet with their power and I think they can do this because they have a good source and they have infrastructure too. but I don't think that google can make the cryptocurrency stop because if we talk about cryptocurrency, it is about all people in every country and cryptocurrency have the power and if google cannot accept cryptocurrency then I think google will get off from the internet.

I think the internet we use is sufficient enough to sustain the ecosystem of the decentralised ecosystem itself. The crypto currencies are actually running over the blockchain which is decentralised and thus adding another layer to it makes no sense to me and it wont help really. Internet is just medium via which the thing are transmitted from one point to another.


There are already big platforms which are serving this industry the only thing people go for using the Google is they are wide spread and they are really really old stuff. They have earned big trust and that is what making them work so finely and I believe nothing else can compete it. So the only thing we can do is either do it on these platform or do it the traditional ways.

I couldn't agree more. My position on the matter is stated here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3126191.0

They are hoping that we are going to acccept it without a fight. They are pretty quick going to learn that they have very little authority left over us. They've gone too far.

hmmm, nice idea, but developing this service is not as easy as you think, it requires a lot of efforts and also it requires wide spread (ads) how do you do this when Google and Facebook has already ban ads? twitter is next in line

it is unlikely that a simple people can do something, one must have the knowledge of experience and opportunity)

The only way to end manipulation is to go all the way with Bitcoin. This will eliminate governments because they all rely on fiat, and the manipulation will end along with them.

You got it on point! I really hope someone would start the initiative on doing just what you said. A day will come when people will realize that it's not just really about the money. This is a critical phase of our evolution where we get to return power to the masses. These bans and manipulations are the cause of all turmoil on this world we're in.

Ending manipulation by bans and regulations would mean we would all have to move completely away from fiat and start using bitcoin as our major currency for the normal day to day purchases in our lives. This is highly unlikely at this point but could be possible in the future so for now we are just going to have to stomach the manipulations and brave through it.

I'm totally agree with you those bans are great for us there are plenty shitty ICOS that hurt our ecosystem and scam people, this decision is aimed to make clear rules. In the long run this will benefit most of us.

THE ONLY MANIPULATION HERE IS THE ONE FROM BITCOIN BAGHOLDERS SPREADING FOMO AND INDOCTRINATING OTHERS TO EMBRACE WHILE THEY HODL TO CASH IN.

The only reason why Bitcoin drops is because people are selling.

Markets go up and down.  They go in to mania phase and eventually they fall.  That is the nature of all the markets. Manipulation happens in every market whether its stocks or commodities or something else but they can be manipulated only upto certain extent.  IMHO we don't need to do anything.  Trade, invest and make money.  It will resolve itself and go much higher in the near future.

Manipulation of what? We can't stop governments from regulating and banning Bitcoin. It will be even better for us to let them regulate crypto to fiat exchange. I will keep trading my crypto anyway without worrying about it much. There are a few project of new decentralised Internet. The most known one is I2P which I haven't used, give it a go.

I agree with you. Because bad news at everywhere. For example a fraud happened recently and the name of the swindlers is associated with bitcoin at some tv channels and news. it makes bitcoin look bad. But the swindle was not related to bitcoin. is it intentionally?

great point there,thats the better action we must do,the mindset of every individuals in times like this,when bad news comes we should not panicked and stay intact supporting your coins,trust out its capability to recovers..when we buy our folios we have faith that will brinus profit,so lets stay as this and never be affected of fuds and bad news

Perhaps this is one way the government to narrow the space for advertising about crypto that unsettles the government that is thought to be troubling the world of banking. Maybe this is only intended for advertising not for this forum, so we do not panic.

While bitcoin and other crypto-currencies will not be under the control of states, such manipulations will take place.

I'm not sure twitter will do the same.
there are still many other media to spread the ads, we just do not panic and stay calm.
Panic only makes things worse.

I'm sure big cryptocurrency related company is now thinking to set up an advertising company that is Cryptocurrency related ads to compete with Google, cryptocurrency is now the big news and the biggest innovation you have to join because you cannot beat it.

it's really funny to see some centralized media ads bans causing the downtrend when it's only the proof that we need blockchain and cryptocurrencies more than ever before, exactly for these reasons.

I don't think google and facebook are the big advertisement platforms for crypto related services,we already have bitcointalk which is the best place to advertise about crypto currency and you can see there are lots of signature campaigns are started everyday.
But it is an good idea create an seprate search engine for the crypto related services but who will do this it needs lots of funds to start this kind of service.
