CNBC on Mar 26 reported that twitter was banning crypto ads. This may not be good for the digital currency market, but it also is good for networks that do not centrally manufacture content for arbitrary values.
The article goes on to discuss how about a week ago on Monday, Bitcoin fell 7 percent below $8k. Searching google the price now is around $6.9k. So perhaps the non independence of steem to Bitcoin is a reason for steems contemporary lower values compared to the fall and winter.
The article asserts Bitcoin is down 42 percent from the $13k price at the beginning of 2018. Apparently google and facebook have also interfered in this market and the free exchange of ideas, for the stated goal to protect against fraud. The article discusses bitcoin price increasing during a G20 meeting, and how Italy's central banker may have endorsed not banning cryptos. The CNBC article also references another CNBC article from that week that Twitter CEO asserts:
"bitcoin will eventually be the single global currency"https://www.cnbc.com/2018/03/25/bitcoin-will-eventually-be-the-single-global-currency-twitters-jack-dorsey.html
It will be interesting how the market adjusts to crypto going more and more mainstream. Perhaps state bans and other regulations will turn the tide? Is it possible that the cat can go back into the bag and people will continue to use central bank printed fiat that is prone to inflation and money printing, or currencies that have a tied value to some commodity or code? Wonder what will be the our reality in 5 years?

That does not make them communists. Authoritarian’s do the same thing just like capitalists. Censorship is a universal thing. I will agree that censorship is bad but I won’t agree because it’s bad they are communists. They are capitalists listening to other advertisers and other interests protecting their profits.

I think its a good direction most ICO's use the funding to start a business when IPO's are already established businesses . A white paper is a just business plan. aside it will clear out all of the fake accounts - Http://satoshipapi

Twitter, Google, Facebook bans are not the problem, it is a symptom. ICO market is one large problem at the moment. Too many ICOs, and too many of them will fail and too many are just scam. We all enjoy our pretty little Wild West here, but we need a change. I don't think ads ban will stom scam wave and i don't think this ban will be lifted before scam wave is stopped.

It seems to me that unlike most people commenting, this is not a twitter or stocks vs. crypto battle but rather an attempt to try to protect twitter users from fraudulent ICOs, at least until there are other regulatory or safeguarding measures in place.
