Facebook announced yesterday that it will no longer accept advertising for Bitcoin and other cryptocurriences.  

Facebook's new policy, "Prohibited Financial Products and Services," says that "Ads must not promote financial products and services that are frequently associated with misleading or deceptive promotional practices, such as binary options, initial coin offerings, or cryptocurrency."
