Let us all be strong guys, don't let those fools lower your guard and be patient always. Maybe having a regulation could also be a perfect plan for other people to trust and invest in ICOs again.

they support blockchain technologies, but not the scams
Their actions show otherwise. More than one legtimate crypto-related twitter account were either outright or shadow banned and many legit crypto ads banned.

If the likes of Google are so serious about blocking scams and ads about scams, why are they allowing fiat-based scams to advertise (e.g. binary options)? I know exactly why, but there is no need to entertain it here. Decentralized, censorship free social media and advertising platforms are going to make this a non-issue pretty soon.

This is the lazy strategy out of a sticky and expensive problem. Most of these sites do not want to spend resources on filtering millions of advertisements, to identify the good from the bad. The quickest and cheapest method is to implement a blanket ban on everything linked to Crypto currencies and the problem goes away. They obviously did the math to see what is more profitable. {Getting the ad income or spending money to deal with the problem} ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

If Facebook and Google are going to stop running them its no surprise that Twitter will as well. Its just more orchestrated FUD to put people off and get people to panic sell.
There is no news about twitter and i think this was just a way to threaten every investors to pull out their investments in bitcoin.Its price were affected by different speculations happening..but there is still posibilities that this cannot be implemented.Who knows that in 3 months there will be changes, as huge population of subscribers disagree on this matter.People will do illegal activities if they want to and all of us must be very vigilant in every investments that we are going to join.If this will be the reason why Google would regulate cryptocurrencies advertisements to avoid people to get scammed then hope that they also give some benefit of the doubt on the impact of crypto businessman.

Thats the problem "a rumour" until there is an official announcement from twitter its not a story. Anyway twitter will still allow me, you and anyone else to talk, share and promote crypto, Its the same with facebook and google.

It was reported that some PayPal users have received a message from PayPal (or someone that pretends to be from PayPal) about PayPal banning crypto transactions on their platform (or something allow those lines). Whether true or not, PayPal and their high fees won't survive the crypto storm.

That is why people should analyse the news and not to take information from the surface. I believe this move behind Facebook and Google is to protect the users of the platforms from those shabby advertisements. It got nothing to do with crypto.

Where did you hear that, can you provide a trusted source. Each day we read hear hundreds of rumors, you should not repeat everything you hear, you can mislead us with such posts. I hope this is just another lie especially after the rumors about banning crypto ads on FB.

Banning adds has nothing to do with supporting bitcoin in my opinion, and this is just another excuse for people with money to start selling their coins, make the price drop a small %, and everyone else will follow with panic sell, because they don't have a clue of what bitcoin is. We keep seeing this behavior during the start of this year, and I guess it's not over yet. Don't know who is doing it. Wall Street that bought a few BTC to manipulate it's price in order to get more out of futures, or Mt Gox, or Roger Ver, or any big profile "bitcoiners", that can manipulate the price in order to profit from the next bull run. I'm not selling mine because nothing has change. Why would twitter banning adds would harm bitcoin adoption? Everyone knows about bitcoin already, and bitcoin is not used for ICOs. These news could hurt ehtereum, and all ICOs platforms out there, but not bitcoin.

I can't argue if they will do this in the near future but at least they do it only to ICO and investment schemes advertising, not all the crypto related content since there are legit crypto services that need promotions in any huge number of active users especially social media platforms.

I wonder that my account was banned because of promoting these kind of projects. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) . Sadly, I have that account for some extra profit, but unluckily, it got banned. I don't know it that's a spam or by that.

Fud, fud and more fuds. Seems like there are some peoples or something who want bitcoin and cryptocurrency fall. If the rumor was right, i wonder why they ban the ads. if they banned it, why peoples panic and sell the coins ? it is only the ads that banned, not the cryptocurrency itself.

Google also wants to ban. Most likely this is due to the fact that the crypto currency is still not legal. Once it is everywhere legalized then there will be no grounds for a ban. But you can always find other ways of advertising.

Thats the problem "a rumour" until there is an official announcement from twitter its not a story. Anyway twitter will still allow me, you and anyone else to talk, share and promote crypto, Its the same with facebook and google. Just because they haven't come out with an official statement at length, doesn't take away from the shenanigans already experienced by many and comments made by top twitter officials in various tweets. In addition, it is primarily about them banning and/or restricting crypto ads (under the guise of wanting to prevent scams from advertising), not crypto related discussions on twitter. However, they have already went beyond that by shadow banning certain crypto accounts. This while they deploy bots to steer discussions in the direction they want. They will of course not publicly admit it, because people might actually wake up for a change. Like google, facebook and the likes, their only interest is to 'protect' the public. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) The people at the top who are against cryptos - in particular decentralized cryptos - are not stupid. They know it is critical to swing public opinion in favor of regulations. And part of the process involves conveying the idea that you're banning and restricting ads to protect the public against scams. My question: What are they doing to minimize the effects of the biggest Ponzi scheme in existence, the fiat Ponzi scheme - a centralized monetary system based on debt that can never be paid off? E.g. the last time around the banksters were bailed out, but the Average Joe received no bailout. The very reason why something such as Bitcoin has seen first light.

The fuds seems to be never ending this time round from end Jan to Mar 2018. I really wonder whether all these fuds are created before Bitcoin start its bull run again.
IMO, it is hard to filter scam crypto ads in Facebook, Google and Twitter. That is why these companies decided to ban it altogether. I don’t think they are against crypto.

Make no mistake, it is a coordinated attack involving many governments and players, including the Mt Gox trustee that falsely claims that he didn't sell those bitcoins in a reckless manner.

This report is still not yet verified so we don't know if this is legit, but I won't be shocked if this will really happen soon. There are lots of companies (most are fake) that are just tricking their investors and it is being promoted on those platforms (google, facebook, twitter, and more) which will give a bad image to them. But I don't see this as an attack to cryptocurrency market, this is just to protect their company from being accused of letting illegal activities run on their platforms but I'm not saying that all cryptocurrency ads are scams. I don't know how they filter those ads that is being broadcast in their platform but I think they should consider those legit companies and services and not all ads related to cryptocurrency.
