<p>YouTube has restored videos of almost all crypto-related channels after removing them earlier this week. </p> <p>The Block checked <a href="https://twitter.com/crypt0snews/status/1209949215549345792">over 35 channels</a> and all of them have been reinstated, including Nugget's News, DataDash, Ivan on Tech, Sunny Decree and Boxmining.</p> <p>“The removals were in error, we’ve reinstated all affected videos and removed any penalty to the channel,” a YouTube spokesperson told The Block, adding: “There has been no change in our policies with regards to cryptocurrency.” </p> <p>Alex Saunders, founder and CEO of Nugget's News, <a href="https://twitter.com/AlexSaundersAU/status/1210364020600918016?s=20">tweeted</a> today: "We're back! Still no contact from Youtube but the 250 removed videos &amp; strikes have been revoked.” </p> <p>The temporary purge encouraged several YouTubers to think about moving content to decentralized social media platforms. Omar Bham, for instance, <a href="https://twitter.com/crypt0snews/status/1209308471255945216?s=20">tweeted</a> earlier this week: “In case YouTube decides to delete my channel (or most of my videos), please follow me on LBRY.” </p> <p>Binance CEO, Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, <a href="https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/1210180824475172866?s=20">said</a> platforms like YouTube are “destroying a lot of value for people” and it is time to “look at alternatives.” </p> <p>“The demand to host decentralized videos will speed up progress of decentralized file systems,” CZ <a href="https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/1210460071957688321?s=20">added</a>. </p>
