Why YouTube Bans Bitcoin &Crypto Videos?

[Em00n01]

I think it was by mistake. They have updated the algorithm. I heard that they will restore those channels and video. So don't panic.

[Youghoor]

Well, I don't think youtube is just deleting video contents of cryptocurrency. There might be some particular reasons behind why these videos are been deleted. But personally, i haven't seen anybody who I have subscribed to their crypto channels complaining that their videos have been deleted yet. I think those whom their videos have been deleted might be breaking the YouTube terms and conditions.

Is this for good ? I mean you will no longer be able to upload such videos ? Even if I saw a lot of shady videos about cryptos on youtube , I have some decent channels that I follow in order to take my extra info about a project or a trading tip so I don't see the reason of why this videos will no longer be legit for uploading.

Regarding scams on youtube this is a step-forward in that direction and I do hope only the real good channels will remain active on this category.

According to me; what’s are the possibilities- 
1)   Crypto is being purge by Youtube.
2)   Attract by some kind of group intentionally.
3)   Attract from Scam Coins (Since good YouTubers telling the true story).
4)   Wrong YouTube Algorithm.
5)   Lots of Fake ICO, Crypto Exchange related videos on YouTube.

Guys, till now I am confused but I added all of my probabilities. End of the day, I am scared. Because, I have learned so many things by watching YouTube crypto videos. I can’t imagine a single day without watching my favorite’s cannel.

Whatever, now really want to know all of your opinion on this issue.

Highly likely their security is triggering some false positive alarm. Their algorithm is probably flagging those videos. Wasn't it few years ago that youtube and google starting banning all ICO and crypto related stuffs? Even facebook if I am not wrong. But they ending reversing everything. Or they have actually updated their policy, thus removing all videos. Lets see what happens after few days.

Maybe in future Google may come up with the new features or any decentralized application works with Google integrated application. Then very soon we can expect some cryptocurrency from Google corporation directly.
So we do not need to worry about the band which is now from the YouTube, I believe this is temporary ban and soon everything will be settled positively.

I was also checking about this and have some information that they are now bringing some stick policy about scam groups and scam projects so just because of this they are doing this all hopefully this will be clear in next few days and we can do again with good and solid projects on youtube.

The opinion about algorithm issues is right and YouTube finally said that this was all a mistake and that's really a mistake on their part.

Most of educational channels are doing fine albeit the massive news regarding the raiding of crypto channels. Youtube will not just outright ban without a proper reason and they are doing this because there are too many garbage videos talking about scam investment. I'm myself always stumbled upon such videos everytime I'm trying to seek information regarding crypto so it's not a problem on my end. Youtube also want to reveal from where the funding of a channel comes from and if it comes from a shady organization it will be taken down aswell.

[Cimmy_revenger]

Don't be afraid guys , if you want to get more information about cryptocurrency you can visit forum cryto ( Bitcointalk , Altcoinstalk , Crytotalk , etc )
Platform video streaming it's not just YouTube.

There are youtube channels that are spreading wrong information. Youtube want to protects its community and that is why there are crypto contents and channels that are been banned recently. It makes me cringed when I see a youtube video that is spreading misconception to its viewers and for me it should really deleted. Those video maker are also ignorant because they really do not know what they are saying.

they seem to have admitted their failure
it was something with the algorithm update that went wrong , too many of this happens lately
and yeah Youtube is the last source of information in regards to crypto
but it is a huge platform to overlook if you want to promote something related to bitcoin and to see your work of a couple of years undone is bad
Youtube said they would reinstate the channels , by the way

[asus09]

If youtube have stop and banned for promoting bitcoin and cryptocurrency you have thousand way to make bitcoin and altcoin become popular payment currency by advertising with your social media account like Instagram, Facebook and you can use twitter social media platform, above three social media platform most effective for promoting bitcoin and altcoin.

I'm sorry but why you need to be scared? I'm sure that you already learned a lot from watching youtube videos so it's about time that you practice it yourself. As far as the bans, I don't think that youtube wanted it to be permanent. Perhaps they just wanted to get rid of the bad eggs here and free their system with a lot of scammers. Nothing to be afraid of.

@Kemarit, sure are right. it's time to start puting into action what you've learnt.

I donot remember going to youtube to search for bitcoin related tutorial's. i did when i was learning how to send an encrypt msg's,blockchain ...

Honestly, i think there is little to learn on youtube that you cannot find in here.

It is! But youtube already apologizes to everyone for the mistake that they've done and is planning to restore those deleted videos by their bots. It is already been talked in another thread for what the youtube management has been done.

[joinfree]

You don't need to be scared mat, youtube has already apologized that this was a mistake with their platform  and they are doing their best to get this rectified. Though i have not heard any of the victims commenting  that his videos have been restored but seriously you don't need to be scared as there are other streaming platforms that are eagerly waiting for all this crypto users to onboard

[bitbunnny]

People often misuse social media and channels like YouTube for their shady business and scams.
So if YouTube removed any of such videos it was because of protection of users and to protect themselves not to have to deal with different complaints and possible scams. As far as I know many websites do the same. That is not aimed against cryptocurrencies but at protection of users so there is nothing wrong in that. Maybe they also removed some legit content by mistake but I'm sure they'll make it right.

It was a huge effect of banning crypt from using YouTube because YouTube is a large company where it can easily advertise and it can help to spread bitcoin.  Site like bitcointalk was not like YouTube that can easily advertise to promote bitcoin that's why it would be a huge effect from spreading crypto to people.

[ubercool]

They already announced that it was just a mistake and reinstated the strikes against crypto channels.

YouTube Calls Crypto Purge a Mistake But Many Videos Still Missing

I think it has a big effect in the community if the cryptocurrency related videos in YouTube was all blocked and banned surely YouTube was a big platform for cryptocurrency and bitcoin to influence a lot of people in the world, and I think with this videos getting banned could affect and prolong the process of cryptocurrency to be implemented in a lot of countries.

But as YouTube already address the issue and called it a mistake for me it was hard to believed, I also created videos in YouTube and most likely if you have original content on your YouTube it will not going to get any copyright issues or any error, But cryptocurrency related videos getting banned or blocked surely YouTube have it already in their thoughts or maybe the YouTube platform is getting a lot of reports from this videos because sometimes they are promoting a scam website or projects. I think YouTube just realize it lately and just announced that it is a mistake. But it was just may theory since YouTube called it like this , I think the issues is already solved and videos should be back online already.

Lets state the facts here as per the statistics 5 billion videos are viewed on a daily basis and the amount of videos in YouTube is really huge and the so called influential videos are viewed by people who are already in the crypto market and it will not make a change in the adoption of crypto in certain countries. The reason for the blockage is not yet known but they have already rectified the issue

 because sometimes they are promoting a scam website or projects. I think YouTube just realize it lately and just announced that it is a mistake. But it was just may theory since YouTube called it like this

It is a fact that the scammers are using their platform to get the maximum reach around crypto investors and i support YouTube if they are able to block all the shit coin projects so that we will be able to get rid of these scammers.
