Changpen Zhao calls for an alternative to YouTube

Changpeng Zhao calls for creating an alternative to YouTube

After YouTube began removing cryptocurrency content, the head of the Binance exchange, Changpeng Zhao, called onthe crypto community to create its own media platform.

YouTube started withoutwarnings to remove videos and channels related to cryptocurrency, including content from some well-known bloggers in the crypto space. In recent days, several crypto influencers have reported deleting videos and even entire channels. The creator of Binance tweeted:

Perhaps the time has come for the community to create its own media portal on the blockchain that is resistant to censorship.

Due to changes in platform policy, more and moremore content creators and crypto fans have begun looking for safe YouTube alternatives to publish their videos. Vitalik Buterin, creator of Ethereum, supported the opinion of Zhao and also wrote about the need to create a decentralized platform after YouTube removed the video entitled “Ethereum Roadmap Questions and Answers” ​​from his channel. Vitalik said:

Censoring the roadmap of the project .. it's kind of weird. Looks like we need an alternative to YouTube.
