Medium introduces new requirements for publishing materials about ICOs and cryptocurrencies

Over the past month, only the lazy have not introduced restrictions on advertising of cryptocurrencies and everything connected with them. While marketers are wondering how to attract attention to their projects now, the social journalism platform Medium has voiced its opinion on this issue. Medium isn't banning advertising for digital currencies, but it is introducing new standards for posts that deal with them.

The administration of the Medium portal does not check posts before publication; they encourage users to carefully study information about the company or sellers. Medium also urges you not to fall for scammers; for this purpose, it has provided a list of links to sources that recognize scams.

As for the publication of posts in the text of which the words “cryptocurrencies”, “ICO”, ​​“bitcoin”, etc. are mentioned, their authors are required to indicate an active link to the project domain in the account information, link to the domain and verify their email address on Medium. 

Furthermore, you now need to provide a link to the company's Facebook or Twitter profile, which must be associated with the same domain. You also need to additionally create a page with up-to-date contact information. Posts can only contain the address of one cryptocurrency wallet. 

In addition, you cannot use an anonymous email address on Medium that is not linked to the project domain (including gmail, protonmail, mail.ru, etc.). The authors of the project cannot advertise or take part in bounty programs, Pump&Dump schemes, write about receiving rewards and participate in other activities that cause suspicion. 

Also, the platform cannot copy the same information with minor changes, or include naked links or shortened URLs in the texts of the publications themselves.

Accounts posting publications that do not comply with the new standards may be removed from Medium as spam.

Due to Medium’s new policy, companies have begun to leave the platform. So, about leaving and creating your own blog in your Twitter blockchain company Eidoo reported.
