Reason why medium is suspending all bounty Hunters accounts

[Alexandr Kirichenko]

I just discover that medium no longer wants bounty hunters on their platform again. many bounty-related accounts have been suspended lately and today I check their rules and I found out they have added this to their rule.

I have my account banned, and then I restored it, really had to delete all articles. So medium is not the area on which now stands something to write.

to avoid scams on their platforms

[sserge009]

Nowadays there are many large platforms that block crypto advertising. It's not clear on what grounds they are doing this and what are their plans for a crypto market. There is evena version that digital giants are preparing some blockchain project and want to enter the market on better terms by holding it's development.

They are too scared on being blamed that they are connected in cryptos, anyway when cryptos and ICO built its name and proven trusted, they will sure accepts it again.

I have to agree with Medium in this, because they need to take care about quality on their website and not get too many content from shillers and fake claps, etc.

I think that Steemit is a much better platform for blogging about cryptocurrencies. It even uses cryptocurrency as an integral part of the way it operates. The only reason I still keep a Medium account is that so many cryptocurrencies are using it to inform their followers about developments. The only thing about the Medium platform that I like that Steemit does not have is a daily email with the recent articles of the people I am following.

i think they don't have a direct benefit from what is happening there. secondly is that they wanna protect their site very well.

as you can see on the rule it is very clear on why they are doing this. and this is because they want to make sure the website is free of spam messages and also content that is misleading or scam project promotion which can lead them to trouble. if you read medium post about bounty well you will understand many articles are full of irrelevant and similar posts which is being targeted to drive traffic to token sales website. you know also that many ICO which have turn out to be scam (e.g denaro, Sym) are being paraded by bounty hunters on medium as good project to invest into.

If they ban spammish posts of low level bounty hunters I can understand, but banning the whole sector of cryptocurrencies would be a violation of so many "rules" of a free society that they would deserve a storm of flame.

[olgahappy]

I think, because it is unprofitable for them that other companies and users envy them. Now a lot of bounty hunters.

[coinereum]

imo medium acts mostly because of quantity and quality of content published by bounty hunters. It's growing pains of bounty community, in future one couldn't publish bad content and get money imo. I didn't know about Steemit, why not move there...

[psikolog]

If they dont want us, we will not use them. I think Steem is better than Medium. You can also make money at Steem.

Everything has an alternative now. Let's not hang out in one place. As we value them, they are trying to kick our ass, or trying to use us as much as they can. So we should know how to kill the monsters we created when the time comes. They must be our slaves, we are not theirs!

It has predicted to me When it comes to the hundreds spam, and copycat articles have generated every day through the bounty spammers, and medium wants to keep its forum on the quality of the discussion.

Those dumb persons only care about to write a crap article through copy and paste from existing sources.

Yep. Problem not in medium but in 'dumb persons' exactly. And those persons get paid by another 'dumb persons'. I think problem is here

Recently, I notice that they are waging an open struggle against the crypto currency. Facebook, twitter, google medium, and other platforms try to prevent advertising of crypto currency. And this is done as if by agreement. But there are not any intelligible explanations. If they are fighting, they are afraid.

[bbc.reporter]

@Encelad. No. Bounty hunters are low quality spammers who control many farmed accounts and who are only posting for profit, not for meaningful discussion like this forum.

I can accuse you of being a farmed account and I would be more than 30% correct because there are so many of them now.

[sud]

Just to be precise here - Medium did not ban all crypto related accounts, the blogs of blockchain projects and enthusiasts are still there. This is just related to annoying spam of mindless bounty hunters making posts or comments without any merit or quality. So overall this is the good thing for Medium and all who use it.

[abduljacklu]

Its clearly all about the spams which is why we shouldnt be letting those hunters to ruin all the opportunity that we might have,cryptocurrency topics are be much spammy than any other topics in medium,as these people are flooding the medium with plagiarised contents which is why it is better to be regulated or restricted than destroying medium's content for good.

[happyme1818]

Why do these social media do not like cryptocurrencies? The first is Facebook, then Twitter, and now the Medium, they have all taken drastic measures to limit the publication of ICO content articles.

Because ICOs will do anything to sell their token even if the content is not true or just a hype. There are also bounty participants make a false information that could risk the investors money.

My Medium account  has been suspended. I still do not understand why they blocked it without warning. Even without notifying that it is blocked, I learned by chance.
What should I do to unlock?
