It was confirmed long ago and this step would definitely prevent loss of many new investors who are into participating in ICOs and get scammed as they invest in an ad displayed on these social media. It really won't affect much of the bounties that are being run by the ICOs here in this forum but what will be affected are the people who wish to scam others!

So they are banning only the ICO ads or all the crypto related posts from everyone?

So no more twitter campaign too on bounties?

It may save the people from investing on scam ICOs but it will slow down the growth rate of crypto currency among people.

Twitter is non different on Facebook, as their social platform is to bring their users closer to their loved ones and to not to become the victims of fake ICOs and fraud crypto related advertising.
it is because people would put their trusts on investing ICOs because they're featured by giant social media like Facebook and Twitter, I think they have their reasons why they ban ICOs and Crypto related ads.

I think banning ads from social media is not something bad.Becasue scam ICOs make people trust less to cryptocurrencies by banning them people may trust back to crypto market.Also they may understand that blockchain is safer than anything

It's old news.This a right step taken by twitter and should be followed by other giants soon.This is probably the worst nightmare for twitter bounty hunters.Some of them will have a hard time making that extra satoshi which they used to get for sharing shit-coins on social-media.

[realsmans]

In my opinion it's okay for platform, to protect users from scam ICO's. Because right now, 90-95% are scams. So advertising of them on platform like twitter kind of negative for the platform.

[reypinioco]

Wont affect ICOs because these restrictions are just for the people who are using their paid advetisement programs,bounty hunters wont be affected by this as they are still allowed to promote something or any cryptocurrency related topics using their own personal accounts,but we must make sure that we arent violating any twitter terms and conditions so we wont get banned or disabled.

[Lerikaweb]

It is natural, because twitter founders are under high pressure of politicians trying to destroy cryptocurrency. So if major social media ban crypto, it will move to some other sm platforms and prosper there. Audience will always find a way to find the info they need.

So, we are heading back to 2009. instead of moving forward?
Nothing good can come out when politic is involved.

Do they have some kind of restrictions for adds, will that be only for ICO's or all crypto?

What is your definition of moving forward ? What would you prefer,100 legit accounts sharing genuine stuff related to the crypto projects or 10000 fake accounts created with sole intentions to share stupid bounty links ? I don't see how the later is making anything move forward.

What else is advertised in crypto if not for the ICO's ?

[Hektur]

And what about tweets and retweets? I mean could we still use Twitter for bounty campaigns?

[Mihawk]

This is old information and it has been discussed and commented by many from beginners to great experts, but it is not pleasant and very less profitable for both parties: Social Network and crypto. In my opinion and analyzing all information on the subject, the specific charge for advertising can be a great alternative in the mass media.

[heritage35]

Although this has been confirmed before now, but i do not see it affecting the advertisement of ICOs or cryptocurrency, because there are other means through which ads can be placed. It might only affect those who are into bounty campaign and are kno using Twitter for the bounty. Legit ICOs will never have issues with this, because they will always have their ways and genuine ways of advertising, where investors will also see their ads.
It is good to have this done by twitter, because scam ICOs will be restricted in some ways.

And what about tweets and retweets? I mean could we still use Twitter for bounty campaigns?

You could Tweet and ReTweet without having to worry that Twitter might remove you from their website. Twitter is just removing advertisements that are paid for.

[zikabra]

What is your definition of moving forward ?

Not banning crypto adds?

What would you prefer,100 legit accounts sharing genuine stuff related to the crypto projects or 10000 fake accounts created with sole intentions to share stupid bounty links ?

100 legit accounts of course, but we are talking about adds. I am not familiar with twitter because I don't use it but add isn't retwit, or is it?

What else is advertised in crypto if not for the ICO's ?

Bitcoin? Exchanges? Trading signals? I've seen many advertisement which are not ICO.

[Tarantula9]

It's interesting, they ban crypto ads but the CEO is bullish on BTC....

[Webcelerator]

Well, do not be afraid, the main thing to avoid in their posts hashtags about cryptocurrency. And for retweets will not block you.

this will not stop cryptoeconomics, why is the gay mafia in wallstreet the only ones in the world allowed to print money and live of the back of others who are supposed to sell their time for it?

this will create 100% a parralel financial system/market,

its actually inevitable, fuck twitter they will not be able to stop this.

[onyebuchi81]

Lol. That's just on paper. They ain't banning shut considering how greedy they all are. Facebook said the same thing but everyday I see different cryptocurrency ads on my facebook page. Same with google. They are just trying to protect theirself from legal issues if it ever get to that point.
