Following massive deletion of crypto-related videos by YouTube last December, two channels were suspended and restored within 24 hours. Tone Vays (91.7K subscribers) and BTC Sessions (33K subscribers) reported on Twitter, April 16 and 17, that YouTube closed their channels, accusing them of violation against the terms of the platform.
Crypto-related bloggers and websites immediately stood up for the victims on Twitter and other websites. YouTube reinstated both accounts within 24 hours. BTC Sessions and Tone Vays joined YouTube in June and August 2016. Now they have started channels on other platforms to mitigate the risk of YouTube bans.
