Now there are massive blocking of Twitter accounts.
Most often,  block accounts  when you to use mass-following. Blocks is forever!
Also do not use hashtags #ICO #Cryptocurrency etc
Be careful!

UPD
Some accounts of my friends that have been blocked marked "forever" are now unlocked
But anyway, I think we need to be careful

Thank you for this advice, did you experience to permanently blocked by Twitter? I will be aware on this, as it is better to be preventive than being sorry of suspending your account.

That really sux if they are beginning to block accounts that talk about ICS. I mean this is a joke and what about the so called freedom of speech etc? So it's o.k to post hate speech and violence to others but you are not allowed to talk about cryptocurrencies and ICOS? If they can collect all the pedophiles and the extremists and gun collectors from Twitter, then I will stop talking about digital currencies lol. These U.S companies really run on double standards, nothing else, they are a bunch of hypocrites. Even I am a Caucasian,. I am sick of this corporate rubbish rammed down our throats.

Thanks for your advice. This's unreasonable. Did you get blocked?  Why did they do that? I mean they don't have any reason to block us. They can't do that 'cuz they hate crypto.

Yes, thanks for the advice. By the way, I understand them, bounty hunters are spamming as fu*k. For the normal user of twitter 3 bounty hunters are already enough to over spam him.

Thanks for the caution! I watch the results of these locks every day, when I lose 100-200 followers. I must be extremely careful, because it will be a pity to lose an account with 7000 followers ...

This is what happens when we have central entity who control everything we do and use on the platform. Thus because of this we can't never trust whats on the platform in the first place because we can't see logs nor database. First you trust them not to edit or change what you type or do and second you have to play by their own rules so that you don't screw things up and they block your account. This is why we need decentralized micro blogging website such as twitter. The only great alternative I've heard is Zapple that uses steemit, but I don't like the fact that I am obligated to give my phone number to register. There might be other decentralized alternatives but problem with these is that not many people are using them and thus it requires a lot of people to make the switch.

Damn, this really sucks.
Anyway, thanks for the advice man, i've just managed to gain more than 1000 followers and i would be pretty upset if i get my account banned. Let's hope Twitter stops this stupid banning thing, it just doesn’t make sense.

That's the main problem of bounty community -- most of bounty hunters are same to spammers, that is killing the reputation of crypto community

So it seems to be a long time ago there was news that social networks will block the ICO advertising on their resources, which inevitably leads to the blocking of accounts thoughtlessly advertising the crypto-world. So I think it is better to use accounts for other purposes, especially if they invested a lot of effort. And as for the ban, I think social media has decided to drag a blanket over their side with huge payouts for a couple of hashtags.

Thanks for the warning.
I think it's safe. It turns out to be blocked permanently if it violates the rules.

Thank you for the advice good thing that you gave us a warning about this since i always use this hashtags (#ICO, #crytocurrency and stuff like that) but to be honest i didn't use my personal twitter account for bounty campaigns instead i use my 2nd account for bounty campaigns and it will so devastating to me to lose 4.7k followers

wow that is insane. Political correctness in the USA is at unbelievably oppressive levels, and private corporations participating in this is really without any honor and morality.

But ultimately it would be a loss for twitter, as it gets eclipsed and replaced by a decentralized and liberated social media platform.

The story of my life... whenever I find something worth doing, someone comes along to destroy it. It's ridiculous. I hope that the cripto currency supporters will not become persecuted like some criminals.

What will happen to the campaigns that were paying users for sharing details of their projects using those keywords ? If this is happening for sure, then a lot of users will loose their accounts. I think that this is really illogical on the part of Twitter to introduce such rules. Now they want users to make Tweets as per the companies interest.

This will result in people moving from Twitter to other platforms.Recent reports already suggest that Twitter is dying.

Maybe, but look at facebook and cambridge analytics scandal, most people agree facebook goes too far but most people are still using it.

I don't think that's good news.
Then we will not be able to participate in the twitter campaign.

If you want to keep your account safe don't use things like mass following that violate the terms of service.
There is a bit of witchhunt against cryptocurrencies so be aware that whatever you do is going to be watched very closely.

yeah it sucks big time. twitter will probably launch their own token at some point after hating on crypto now. Even if there are people promoting crypto there's no reason to ban them... followers can just unfollow if it's an issue. They certainly shouldn't ban personal accounts...whatever happened to freedom of speech.
