Instagram Banned Bitcoin

[muliyadi227]

This is shocking news for the Bitcoin banned by Instagram. From its platform, the conversation about Bitcoin and Bitcoin was hidden by Instagram. Until now, Instagram has not given an official statement about this, but there are several users who have started to be affected. Why do you think it is? Is it because Libra and Diem that the project failed or was it ordered by SC or the revenge of the Winklevos brothers who are rich from Bitcoin. Instagram is clearly a platform that does not support freedom of speech and only displays content according to the algorithm they want. What do you think guys ?

I don't use Instagram and I am not aware of their ban against Bitcoin and conversation about Bitcoin. Reading your post, I would like to find announcement from Instagram but I got this Binance feed.

Instagram Bans Bitcoin Posts : New Controversy Unfolds

It happened two weeks ago.
Instagram suspend accounts for posting about Bitcoin.

Only Bitcoin, but still allows shit coins. They did a right thing and great job to block a best cryptocurrency while allows many scam coins on their media platform.

Instagram is part of Meta and I have not seen Facebook or Instagram have banned advertisements related to Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. There are certain criteria and requirements that need to be met before anyone can run an advertisement about Bitcoin. Please go ahead and read this topic to get the right information, About Meta's advertising policy on cryptocurrency products and services.

Unless there is an official statement from Meta, please do not blindly believe what influencers are saying. In 2018 they had placed a temporary ban on advertisements related to Bitcoin later they removed it. Do remember that content removal on Instagram does depend on community reporting, It is applicable to Facebook and YouTube too.

Ehh whatever. It doesn't really make much sense to have Bitcoin discussion on Instagram — an image photo sharing platform. If I were to guess most of the Bitcoin-related posts there are scams anyway.

Instagram is a paradise for photos to show their wealth, happiness and yes, scams.

True Bitcoin users care about privacy and anonymity so Instagram will not be their favorite platform to discuss about Bitcoin. Who need Instagram to show a face and expose their identity to the crowd?

Twitter is better than Instagram or Facebook for cryptocurrency communities but I know scammers are abundant on Twitter too.

For technical discussions, developments and helps, they can get it on Bitcointalk.

I wouldn't read too much into it either. On the one hand they have banned everything that refers to Bitcoin and "crypto", putting it in the same bag and we already know that everything that refers to crypto ends up being scams or pump and dump schemes. On the other hand, those of us who have Bitcoin don't want people to know about it either, and even less so on a site like Instagram.

Although I suppose that over time when Bitcoin is even more standardized they will have to reverse the decision.

True. But what are they going to post on Instagram about wealth+bitcoin anyway? A picture of their hardware wallet? A screenshot of their wallet app balance? It doesn't make much sense. The only photo I could think of that someone might post are photos in a Bitcoin conference/meetup, and that's pretty much it.

I have not read any official statement of Meta concerning this censorship but some reports claim that they are doing that to protect their customers from scams.  The insinuation that this clampdown is because of the failure of Libra and Diem the proposed stablecoin payment system by Meta can't be ascertained because there is no evidence to prove that point. All social media platforms are owned by individuals which means that they can be controlled based on the interest of the owners. Although Instagram is filled with many worthless projects it is also a good medium to promote bitcoin, however, Meta can not stop the spread of bitcoin.

I have mixed opinions

Actually I agree with some users that there is no need of discusion of bitcoin on a shitty Sotial network like instagram.
But remember that bitcoin needs mass adoption and reach more people in roder to get less volatility, also there is no such thing as bad publicity.
So as a bitcoiners we need that bitcoins become more popular outside of our circle.

Doesn’t surprise me, instagram was bought out by Mark Cuckerberg. We all know about the history he has with the Winklevoss brothers. Maybe Cuckerberg just hates bitcoin.

[moneystery]

it's all just interest. facebook has a libra project which is a competitor to bitcoin and of course they don't want bitcoin to be more popular than libra on their own platform. but this won't interfere with the adoption of bitcoin because instagram is just an image sharing platform and has nothing directly to do with bitcoin, so yeah i don't care if they block bitcoin or not.

Its not first time with several social media announced banned bitcoin transaction, other social media social such as Twitter and have Youtube media platform ever banned with cryptocurrency advertising but there are not significant effect and make bitcoin drop. I don't face serious with Instagram banned bitcoin and cryptocurrency because there are not any drastically valuable of bitcoin or cryptocurrency. Regarding when China and some top country against with Bitcoin but there are not any important thing will make bitcoin drop why have serious respond with Instagram banned bitcoin?

There are have several place for advertising of bitcoin and I don't think if Intsgram, Facebook or another platform of social media banned bitcoin will be huge problem in the future.

[adaseb]

I have never used Instagram but if they banned it I think it has more to do with constant scams rather than some government regulation which forced them to ban it.

Most likely there were people posing in Porsches and saying that you can make this much money also, just invest in some bitcoin or Ethereum scam.

Or they got those scams where if you send 1 BTC you will get back 2 BTC which are very common on twitter.

You are right, actually social media is the best place to promote business or anything, including crypto or Bitcoin. Because social media can help Bitcoin adoption, and also social media is the best place or nest for fraudsters to carry out their actions and their targets are beginners.
And actually I don't know much about Instagram because I've never been interested in creating an Instagram account. And what is clear is that the positives and negatives depend on the intelligence of each individual so that they don't get trapped easily and don't easily trust anyone before doing detailed research.
Because fraud on social media will never disappear, it will always exist and will continue to exist forever.

It doesn't really matter if Instagram bans Bitcoin because Instagram is a platform used by people who want to share photos and videos.
Instead of Instagram, many users choose to use Twitter (X) to search for information about developments in the crypto world which are relatively fast and sharp even though the platform that belongs to Elon cannot be fully trusted either.

The most active discussion about Bitcoin and crypto here.
Thousands of discussion posts were born on the bitcointalk forum based on ninjastic.space data.
Instagram is not a platform that fully supports freedom of expression.
People who express opinions there can be punished if their opinions are not accepted by certain parties.

If Instagram has not issued an official statement, the information about the Bitcoin ban cannot be trusted.

Doesn't matter if Instagram ban bitcoins or not, it will have no effect on bitcoin. Yes the platform that will ban the bitcoin will lose its user base and popularity but it is not harmful for bitcoin in any way.

Don't know if this news is authentic, but even if it is authentic, it will impact the Instagram and they will have to revert thier decision at some point later seeing the popularity of bitcoins.

It is these platforms that need to adopt Bitcoin, as bitcoin doesn't need these platforms to be popular.

As far as I know, Bitcoin is banned because of scammers who use it to scam investors. And then the banning of cryptocurrencies on Instagram started when ICOs' projects were trending. So we can't blame the Instagram platform either.

They just removed the clutter that Instagram thinks is polluting their social media platform. The only thing that is not really good is that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies that have been in this industry for a long time are being misused.

It could be that they could not keep up with the number of new altcoins that pops up every bullrun so they try to chop the "head" first.

I hope IG also starts banning all accounts of "gurus" and "experts" coming out of hibernation from the crypto winter only to start selling subscriptions to newbies for some trade signals again.

[lombok]

In my opinion, Instagram is not very popular among crypto users. Instagram is still under one roof on Meta. Instagram's focus is on social media which is full of endorsements, a place for the world of advertising and flexing. Bitcoin doesn't need that. Do you know why cars like Ferrari and Lamborghini never appear in TV advertisements? Because they know TV viewers will not be able to buy such classy, quality, luxurious and expensive cars. You know the conclusion, right?

[Woodie]

I think there is a missing piece in this whole Instagram account banning, what are the chances that such accounts could have been promoting or scamming other insta users and this received overwhelming reports that got these accounts banned or they maybe they got banned for using fake followers or bots And considering this hasn't affected their more popular platform Facebook means these are just some isolated cases imo

Just for arguments sake did these guys ban any prompt crypto related account ??

it's all just interest. facebook has a libra project which is a competitor to bitcoin and of course they don't want bitcoin to be more popular than libra on their own platform.

Do these guys really think they can compete with Bitcoin, this has to be the joke of the decade 
If they want that seat at the top they better compete fairly and not have a rigged race !!
