Is Facebook against Bitcoin?

[Google+]

some time ago I read the news that Facebook banned advertisements about cryptocurrency on Facebook but on the basis of that I still found a number of fan pages that have a cryptocurrency platform, so I am still not very clear about the wishes of this Facebook founder, there might be a certain reason why Bitcoin isn't allow on facebook.

Facebook will no longer accept ads for regular financial services related to fraudulent or misleading advertising, including ads for Bitcoin. Facebook isn't against Bitcoin and this decision isn't permanent, Facebook will revisit the rules as they realize that managing it is better, while eliminating bad ads.

[Aldrinx00]

They tried banning crypto related post but they already give up because definitely they will lose users and lose profits from advertisements. It's a wise decision from the Facebook creator and i think he also has a plan of making his own coin so he is aware that crypto can increase his reputation.

I don't think Facebook is against Bitcoin but it is more cautious after the breaches happened in the past few days,but I don't think banning crypto ads can lead to more security because it is not that scams happen only because of bitcoin they also happen because of Bitcoin banning  crypto ads isn't a good idea,if so it is good ide there are many other things that can be  baneed that are leading to gretaest scams than crypto ,but yeah I feel Mark Zuckerberg also started to realize how potential and popular crypto is becoming and so removed the ban on crypto ads which is a great news indeed.

I think not. Facebook is not against facebook, besides bounty hunters uses fb accounts in social media to promote different ICO's and blockchains, however facebook is issued that it blocks some of an advertisement related in crypto.

I disagree. Mark Zuckerburg even stated that he's going to study blockchain and cryptocurrency. I understand his actions before because there are a lot of scams with ICOs so that is why he decided to ban them. Mark Zuckerburg always want his user to improve user experience in the platform and investments scam are definitely is not what he wants.

Facebook are illegal all all advertisements for the virtual money, including Bitcoin and ICO - a default cash starting with the virtual instead of the cash like normal). This is a section of the anti against the marketing marketing.

I am not sure but i believe the facebook owner Mr. Mark Zucherberg want to eat piece of the cryptocurrency markets cake. I am waiting for that. A coin or something will come out with the facebook soon. He would never miss a big chance like this one..

Although the Facebook banned the ad cryptocurrency circulating on Facebook but I think they do not really want to fight the Bitcoin because we know the founder of Facebook even want to learn blockchain technology owned by Bitcoin.

Facebook do not hate bitcoin infact I think they support crypto but you have to understand why they had to ban crypto for now. Yes I think its temporary. They're just trying to protect themselves and their customers and who can blame them. Scammer we're thriving with social media and were destroying crypto. We need to send the right messages for mass adoption not the wrong ones.

Facebook is being used as a media flatform to promote bitcoin because of its popularity and the numerous number of users.

[ninokh]

in my opinion there are several reasons why Facebook prohibits bitcoin. First Facebook prohibits cryptocurrency and ICO ads because now many ICOs are scamming so Facebook doesn't want its users to be deceived by the ICO. The second time I also read that Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg wanted to make crypto himself. and they also think that payment via crypto costs a lot and is a long time. but I think when crypto improves the system, the transaction process is accelerated and costs are reduced, so they will be interested in promoting crypto again.

Facebook has tried but they were not successful since many users are doing some crypto related business. Bitcoin has already conquer in social media , the only point is for those users who are willing to take their journey in crypto business.

Previously, facebook forbade bitcoin but now not. This is a positive sign to promote the development of bitcoin. Bitcoin can be advertised on the faceook, this is a chance for bitcoin to get closer to everyone.

[gwapman]

i think they will forcely aloow cryptocurrencies. since they still grow up more and more. not now for sure . but in the near future

[digitalcryptocoin]

Might be no. Because I just searched on google about what experts and people are talking about Bitcoin on FB. But basically, Facebook is social media and as we all know Mark is owner of it. But it's all about business and loyalty.

Might be Mark have understand future of cryptocurrencies. But people already have created many related activities for promotion of Bitcoin as well as altcoins by paying to Mark as he own platform named Facebook. Its business part but facebook also have offices globally, and may be due to global corporate and government  regulations are the main reasons for taking interest down from Bitcoin and Altcoins.

All of the giant corporations are naturally against the cryptocurrencies because all of them work as a centralized units. They dont want the people to own their assets. We all know how Facebook manipulates the users' data and we have already seen the examples.

[bitfocus]

no, facebook is just trying to minimize the damage by scammers and ponzi schemers.

[aad140386]

I hope that Facebook will not tighten policy towards cryptocurrency and cryptocurrency accounts. The other day, thousands of people were faced with the fact that their Twitter accounts were blocked. So far it is difficult to say whether it was a targeted correction of the crypto-community or just a new algorithm that blocks bounty hunters accounts, but if this happens with the facebook, it will not have a very good effect on the dissemination of information on new ICOs.

[naufals4]

i think not against it, facebook just warn people about scammers and ponzi schemers, because those method just really popular these day to easily get bitcoin from people. so facebook just minimizing the risk about it
