Google Will Remove Crypto-related Ads Starting June 2018

[abchebonk]

good regulation to organize this final advertisement we often see in google even in yotube, remember they just forbid for advertisement of ICO not forbidding to support certain project. so I do not think I worry too much about the ban.

twitter also announced today that they will shut down ICO ads starting from 28/03, however it seems that market didn't react much on this

Google will ban all relevant types of ads with cryptocurrency in June 2018, this is done for updates to their Financial Services policy.

Actually its a good thing in Cryptocurrency industry . I think they're just trying to prevent and minimize the threat of fraud and scams circulating in any web platforms. But because of that act we lose one of the biggest advertisement web platform and it may affect other legitimate and credible Cryptocurrency advertisement.

Well now youtube is the child of google they have blocked those related to Cryptocurrency. The scam they are trying to reach people on every means, google they do not want to deceive their users so they has decided to ban the Crypto advertisement.

Well, I am pretty that this bad behaviour or decision of google (banning crypto ads) because of government pressure on them. As well, it is true that there are many fake cryptocurrencies and ICO's and they should be eliminated, but banning all cryptocurrencies ads is a strange decision, because Google has a huge financial income due to crypto ads.

On the other hand ,It is unfortunate that the governments impose their powers on everything, and hopefully that this bad decision will be removed.

Guys it's ban for paid ads. But some good news that bounty reposts/retweets will be more expansive. And it's not ads. That's why reposts will not be banned

Why it will be june2018? Why not do something what FB and twitter did in ICOs, well whatever the reason is, I think the winter is coming for cryptos, most especially for incoming ICOs. sad...

If that is the case, there may be little impact on the development of crypto. Especially now crypto is in a state of decline because the market is always red. With advertising it will probably help crypto back to a period where almost everyone talks about it. Moreover, google can be equated like the center of internet media.

In the past few months, I have heard that the media is going to ban google and facebook from promoting bitcoins in any form. But the bitcoin market is still growing. So I think that Google's removal of ads related to Crypto will not have a big impact on the investors.

Google is banning only ads those who promoting their ico's with Google adwords,this does not affect to crypto at all, all cryptocurrency websites will still show in google's search engine.

I’ve heard about this topic too about Google banning any crypto-related ads and I think what they are referring to is the ICO’s promoting or advertising their projects but I don’t think they will ban cryptocurrencies though. Could this be the end of ICO’s too?

[AntoCokbun]

That is just good news, google just do not want people to advertise fraud.

it's absolutely certain it is google doing it for the goodness of precisely to settle the fraud but with the circulation of news it directly gives a bad impact on crypto market and hopefully this will all recover.

[CaterpillarRave]

They did it right, because they protect people from the influence of advertising. Now a very large number of Ico and after viewing the advertisement, people no longer understand which ones are really good which are not

[kulakvlad]

I do not consider this a big problem. There will be other resources where we can always find relevant and useful information.

Google is just one of information channel. and it does not effect in Crypto value. there are still many social media can be used to advertise Crypto. Crypto is still used in many economy fields in the world

Korean Blockchain companies are filing a dispute to all social media sites facebook twitter and google for banning ico ads so no monopoly in advertising

James Wagner, Extensions Platform Product Manager of Google, published in chromium blog a post titled, Protecting Users from Extension Cryptojacking:
https://blog.chromium.org/2018/04/protecting-users-from-extension-cryptojacking.html
"Chrome Web Store will no longer accept extensions that mine cryptocurrency. Existing extensions that mine cryptocurrency will be delisted from the Chrome Web Store in late June. Extensions with blockchain-related purposes other than mining will continue to be permitted in the Web Store."
At last Google has started to do something about malicious extensions with hidden crypto mining scripts. I hope Google Play will be next after Chrome.

I believe that this is another opportunity to prove themselves for such platforms as Thrive or Qchain. There is little competition in this area.

I think it's very unlikely, when all the websites I visited were all about cryptocurrency and token / ico.
kalaw google will throw all the cryptocurrency ads they will lose a lot of money
