When I was a video on youtube I saw a lot of crypto advertisement that I saw but now I see some only and I hope they can able again advertising about crypto content. I think they have a good purpose why they banning it because they see some scam project so they need to implement that but I hope they consider still the good and legit project that gives an oppotunity to the people to earn a real money because crypto is really legit only people is the scammer of that and they are using crypto in bad ways.
Honestly,,, why do you guys even care? All the good stuff about crypto and Bitcoin is right here on this forum, or learnable from the wiki and other discussion forums. Do we need some corporate crypto ad in our face? No I know I do not,,, especially when 99.9% of those projects are scammers or will be scammers at some point. I agree with the ban.

But I can still watch some content about crypto without a problem. I think they ban random people, and Youtube wants to see the impact. We don't know what their reason to do that is, but if they still ban people's channels that talk about crypto, that will not stop crypto become popular. Many other websites are similar to Youtube, although Youtube still the king in the video content. Or maybe Google wants to launch its own crypto, so they need to eliminate their competitor first before they start their project.

There are always 2 sides of the story. One side is that they are removing content that is being reported and I know that in some cases people responsible for reviewing reported videos don't know what they're about but still delete them. For them it's better to be more strict than lenient to show that they're doing something "protecting the community". On the other some vidoes are real scams. We all saw videos od bitconnect promotors and I'm sure they managed to hurt a lot of naive people by persuading them to invest.

Similar to facebook, I think youtube's algorithm automatically takes down a content if it has been reported plenty of times. They'll just wait for an appeal from the content creator.
Ivan on Tech has been doing AMA ICOs for a long time and some of his folllowers are probably fed up.

We can't deny the fact that YouTube have the most numbers in terms of spreads the platform reached more people and the influence is really higher compared to those competitors who serve the same purpose, it's impacting especially to those legit channels who provide good guidelines for crypto lovers.

Well, that's where the problem comes from as it is purely difficult to separate scam and legit cryptocurrency projects often atimes, i believe that's why people still lose investments in startups IEO and ICO's. The buttom line is just as vitalik butterin suggested last year, the cryptocurrency space need more of owned social and content media outlets, if not we'll just wake-up one day and see that these guys have shut us out

According to this article, YouTube continues to ban crypto content; No one knows the reason!. Last December they ban a lot of 'legitimate crypto website'. But lately though, we have seen hundreds if not thousands of fake giveways, and with the Covid-19 pandemic, perhaps there are more crypto related scams appearing on Youtube. I agree with the ban of crpyto related scams, and they should focus on it. However, if some legit channels are going to be affected, then they have to look at their process of banning, just saying. I remember when Youtube banned a bunch of accounts some time ago, but within a week they solved the matter and apologized for that mistake. But to be honest, I don't see any reputable media mentioning such major restrictions that occurred lately. I see that something happened in February, and then Youtube banned a couple of popular accounts in March for some time and gave them strikes. So sometimes it happens, and it's terrible, but it's not just crypto videos. I've seen some of my favorite YouTubers complaining about the problems with Youtube algorithms. I guess, the problem is that there's too much content on Youtube right now, so workers cannot check it manually. Instead, they write programs that are supposed to do the job, but they often make mistakes because it's not that easy to tell a program what to look for that would not result in some mistakes.

I agree with the ban of crpyto related scams, and they should focus on it. However, if some legit channels are going to be affected, then they have to look at their process of banning, just saying. YouTube channel should make a better move this time in separating the scam channel from a legitimate one and for the channel owners, make sure also to double check every rules and regulations of YouTube so you can avoid this from happening. This happened last year but the YouTube gave a statement that they created a mistake and they un-ban the legitimate crypto channels so I am hoping that they are not doing the same mistake again. It will be good also if you can drop some legit channels that were being banned by YouTube so we can check whether they are now banning the whole crypto channels or those scam channels only. Youtube is somehow related to authority and some governments really don't agree with the use of crypto in a particular country so it depends in the country that you are based on. It is not impossible for the crypto advertisements to become banned in Youtube as it is also taking care of its image and some people are not that knowledgeable about the use of crypto in our society. But that's the function of the advertisements, to help promote and accept the cryptocurrency in the industry so that it will be legalize in a certain country. As what I've said, it needs a confirmation of a government if they will accept the advertisement of crypto in other social media, not only Youtube. The main problem is because of the scammers, the government only get some reports about people being scammed by crypto that's why the image and the true purpose of bitcoin when it comes to government is being ruined.

just like before, unless you can show at least one example of an actually legitimate cryptocurrency related content that was removed i am going to say it was justified because all the "contents" i have seen have been either scams advertising some sort of shitcoin or ICO or have been misleading people into losing money in trading disguised as "expert traders" and "trading signals".
as an example of useful content that will never be removed you can always look at Andreas Antonopoulos videos.
If youtube uses the same algorithm that they use for demonetizing other videos, then it is possible that they remove good content, but I don't think there's that much of good crypto content on youtube to begin with, and most of it is old and well-established, so it's unlikely to be removed. So maybe overall it's a net positive that a lot of scams will get booted out of the platform and less people will get scammed.

the problem is how they will separate the legit to scam because scammers are good in copying and pretending to be legit.

Perhaps you could have seen the policies set out by YouTube itself. One of the content policy clearly says when an allegation would be done on a channel and i guess one of the policy depicts the Crypto Channels here : Scams: Content offering cash gifts, “get rich quick” schemes, or pyramid schemes (sending money without a tangible product in a pyramid structure). Since most of the Crypto projects fall under get quick rich stuff and also MLM kinda projects they are banned straight away. Also this one . . . Promising money, products, software, or gaming perks for free if viewers install software, download an app, or perform other tasks. Reference : https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2801973?hl=en&ref_topic=9282365
About the LEGIT CHANNELS : They always have a scope to contact the support and present their channel in best possible ways and look if they violate the terms of YouTube or Not. C'mon there is no alternative for this.

Much better to look for other alternatives out there. I know the lbry.com, I have read about it a couple of months ago when youtube starts deleting some cryptocurrency content on their platform. BUT with all these alternatives for youtube platform, still people won't go out there simply because most of the channels are for profit/monetary valued by its creator. Who wants to talk in an hour without any in exchange? don't be a hyprocrite folks, in addition some people in youtube spent hundreds of days analyzing everything that they wanted to share with their audience and these following alternatives, none of them are for profit organization. Perhaps that is the very reason why people are still with youtube. On top of that is the popularity, youtube is default app in millions of phones.

Really hard to beat youtube despite of so many platforms trying to compete with them. There are also several crypto projects like buzzshow ( https://www.buzzshow.com/), juiice ( https://www.juiice.com), and others. Yet, they can't capture a good percentage of youtube viewers. But youtube should watch and see the content of the video before totally deleting it. There are still some informational crypto videos that need to be out there. YT is the go-to of large part of population on earth so they should at least leave some good crypto videos.

I think youtube doesn't ban all the crypto content. If you search about cryptocurrency in youtube, you still see some videos related about crypto. Usually youtube only ban a content which have been reported many times.

I believe that they are doing this for the benefit of everybody. We know that some project is really enticing to see and people get attracted to it but somehow it turns bad and has a scamming end which is the Youtube channel have to work on it. They are actually saving us from this kind of artwork and I really appreciate their works. This is not probably about money but this is to protect their reputation as well.

YouTube is all set on making money this year . With an increasing number of advertisements plus the premium membership program , I do think it is indeed very smart but at the same time they need to understand that people valued the freedom they provided. I see no reason for them to ban cryptocurrencies related content , they will ofcourse need it for the upcoming times when it will be officially used. One should understand that , they are just making a part of their viewers angry . When even the government is okay with this I see no reason why they should do this.

YouTube is banning crypto because there have been many instances where crypto related channels have been in the center of big scams. Another reason for ban is that some channel hackers have demanded cryptocurrencies to reinstate hacked channels from the channel owner. These ban are driven by community response and youtube give a lot of preference to its community.

If there is no effective way to filter good from bad content, then the only correct solution would be to remove all content that is related to cryptocurrency. But of course Google (which owns YouTube) will not do this, as they would lose part of their revenue. As others have noted, most YT content related to crypto is actually pointless and bad, so the only ones protesting the tight controls are those trying to profit from inexperienced users.
According to everything I've personally seen in recent years, 80% of crypto videos are actually bad or pointless, but people still watch them - because for most it's not content that matters, it's presentation.

This is a sort of cleaning the entire community of youtube. Those deleted videos are maybe nonsense/pointless or just a scam project service to have their own benefits just like what happen to this coronavirus token project that fooled many people. Sometimes there are many toxic in a community that should be cleaned. Video creators should understand the youtube community guidelines and basic strikes and that is the reason that their video is safe for vanishing.
