The latest in a long line of online companies to have banned cryptocurrency ads is Microsoft’s search engine, Bing. The news sent almost all cryptocurrency prices into the red. Microsoft’s motive is the same as those given by Facebook and Google – to protect users from ICO scams. Nonetheless, it’s yet another blow to legitimate teams looking to raise awareness for their projects. It also illustrates yet again the fragility of the crypto market. Bing’s complete ban of anything crypto-related will come into effect at the end of June/early July, as the global computing giant revises its ads policy.
